But I am a boy...So you cant marry me..
Who decided that?

A beautiful tale inshort.
After Stumbling upon Houtou Musuko to koi no Ana, I realised that a perfect romance does not require alot of chapters or the need of flowery embellishment which alot of romances tend to do.
Dealing with a realistic scenario of Minori(The main character being gay), the story unfolds by giving us an in depth analysis of his mental, psychological and emotional state(Later on). and finally his main struggles. The 2 main characters are basically the influence for each other and contribute to each other s growth and development.
THe story tells us how no ... one is actually perfect through the development of the characters as well.

The pacing in simple words is just right. With a good build up from start to finish, great characters and a great ending, i think its safe to say that its a great hidden gem among alot of mangas.
NOt to mention my prespective on erotica has changed by alot...

THe only reason to why alot of people rate it low would be the fact that the 2 characters are cousins. So just a side info
As an asian myself, its not a stigma(Unlike westren countires) in fact to have relations with your cousins rather then someone outside is much more common. Especially in the rural areas, not to mention the age gap(WHich isnt even large)
SO yeah in the end its realistic, wholesome and at the same time beautiful.

English version:
A perfect work of a few chapters (I wish these works to be published in Brazil so badly). It shows important points like being gay in a small ville, or the challenge of being gay and thinking that others are playing with your feelings, or how a simple homophobic sentence can wipe out all of a person’s emotional, leaving traumas forever.
I would not change anything in this work (just the age of sousuke, minors shouldn't even be here) because it was perfect from beginning to end, the construction of the characters, and the building of trust between the two of them.
I saw some ... people commenting that sex scenes were missing and I disagree, so much that I didn't even like the scene where they have sex for the first time, because it was embarrassingly done and the author could have changed.
Very cute and well written.

Portuguese version:
Uma obra perfeitinha de poucos capítulos (queria tanto que essas obras fossem lançadas no Brasil), onde mostra pautas importantes como ser gay em cidade pequena do interior, ou o desafio de ser gay e achar que os outros estão brincando com o seu sentimento, ou como uma simples frase homofóbica pode acabar com todo o emocional de uma pessoa, deixando traumas pra sempre.
Eu, particulamente, não mudaria nada nessa obra (apenas a idade do sousuke, menores de idade nem deviam estar aqui) porque ela foi perfeita do começo ao fim, a contrução dos personagens, e a construção de confiança entre eles dois.
Vi algumas pessoas comentando que faltava cenas de sexo e eu discordo, tanto que nem gostei da cena em que eles fazem sexo pela primeira vez, porque foi de maneira constrangedora que foi feita e a autora podia ter mudado.
Muito fofo e bem escrito.

But they're cousins tho? Honestly, there were a lot of things they really need to consider - they live in the country side where basically everybody knows everybody's business, his folks are old and probably adheres to tradition, they're cousins and both gay, which are all signs of having their relationship would not be smooth. But love is love is love is love, and like what Sousuke said "May it be a man or a woman as long as it's Minori-chan". Although I was holding my breathe until the end to see how it would turn out (I was really hoping they would officially get ... together once the seme graduates high school and became and adult) but it just happens right there so I guess it's fine then. Not gonna lie, that extra chapter where they told the childhood friend made me emotional too. He was a good friend. :)
