I dont only read garbage no siree Today I got a great piece of work if you enjoy wholesome content and good art. Welcome to The Last Train/Saishuu Densha. 300https://i.ur.com/5v6AbAU.jpg Story: Basic story is we have our main characters Natsume and Miki meet for the first time after they both miss the last train for the night. Natsume having worked overtime that night while Miki was out at a drinking party. Afterwards they both decide to stay the night at the same hotel but due to a lack of vacancies they decide to share a room. Dont worry theres two beds. After this night they eat breakfast together and Miki offers to meet up again with Natsume for dinner so they could become friends. Natsume is a tad socially withdrawn so he believes its just lip service. This in addition to Miki suddenly cancelling their plans due to another meeting Natsume begins to think that he could never truly be friends with Miki because theyre so different. Later that night we find Natsume barely making it on time for the final train. With a mind filled with thoughts of Miki he jumps off of the train at the last second thinking that Miki would be there on the platform. Discouraged when he finds the platform completely empty he suddenly hears a voice calling for him from behind. He turns around to see Miki there who is also shocked to see Natsume alone on the platform. After a brief talk they both reveal their true feelings to one another. 300https://i.ur.com/WrARVIB.jpg I am not lying when I say that this scene made me weep tears of joy. They then stay the night again at the same hotel and probably just hold hands when sleeping. Thisll be all the story that I will cover specifically for now really only chapter one. I want to really talk about more but theres not so many chapters so go ahead and read if you can. Characters: Starting with Natsume I personally find him cute and endearing. I can relate to his feelings of helplessness when it comes to matching up with someone you want to befriend. Also his looking forward to their basically first date had me feeling so soft for him. Later on in chapter 3 when he tries his best to make it to a date despite being sleep deprived from overwork hes also super soft. 175https://i.ur.com/lO6QZXS.jpg 175https://i.ur.com/AGOOGrm.jpg Look at him. I know he doesnt have the widest range of emotions but I just find every small action very cute. It could also just be my personal Bland Boi boner. Moving on Miki is like a good mix of optimism but also subtle possessiveness. He dotes on Natsume but doesnt fall into the major bad traits of toxic semes that I hate. Specifically here Im talking about those that become super controlling and dont let their partner even breathe without them there to watch. 175https://i.ur.com/RVzFZg6.jpg 175https://i.ur.com/374KjCq.jpg This reminds me of like 10 other BL I wanna talk about in the future. Man were gonna have a fun time... Art: I have many favorite authors which Ive read over the years. Natsuo sensei in particular has this great soft feel with their art. You feel warmth you feel comfortable. Her sense of bodily anatomy is so normal when placed next to the likes of say Romantic Love Insect Poisonhttps://anilist.co/review/5431 youd think they came from alternate dimensions or something. 300https://i.ur.com/i4XL7cs.jpg But not only is the fluff content through the roof 300https://i.ur.com/h6Q34YF.jpg Story 9/10 I highly revere this manga but due to me only reading the first three chapters I cant give it a complete 10 just yet. Based on the first three chapters at least thats a good solid 9 for sure. What is that like a B? I hope once the last of it comes out I can come back to this review and confidently raise the score. Characters 8/10 Some may find them boring depending on what they want in their Boys Love. Personally I love boring mundane shit like taking naps going to aquariums or riding trains so this hit the perfect spot for me. Others may want more dynamic plots but also remember that theres only 1 volume for this baby sensei pls write more Ill be good I promise Art 10/10 The art I feel was absolutely perfect for this type of story. Nothing too gritty nothing too sharp. Just the right amount of soft to not go into Ori Mita territory another soft author that I love and hope to review in the future as well From my limited knowledge The Last Train is Natsuo senseis debut work and Id say that she did great with it. I hope to see more of her work in the future as well. Train 9/10 The inclusion of trains was well done but I wished for maybe some more scenes with them riding the train together. Nearly one train in every chapter so some good content. Sadly no further detail into the train itself so not a perfect 10. Final Notes: The scanlation group that was putting out chapters for The Last Train/Saishuu Densha closed up shop just this year July 2019 so sadly there probably wont be another chapter release soon. I dont communicate with groups or keep up with all the multiple BLcentric scanlation groups on the interwebs so heres hoping another group remembers that it exists and picks it up. written by Whim
