[Summary post](https://community.wanikani.com/t/read-every-day-challenge-summer-2021/51713/48)

**Day 33: July 3rd**  
What did I read?: ふたりのライオン  
How much did I read?: 144 pages (3 chapters - finished the manga)  
How long did it take me?: 4 hr 45 min? Or 5 hours maybe? (some rando kept calling me and leaving blank messages on my phone while I was trying to read earlier this afternoon…while that was happening I paused my timer at some point and forgot to restart it, so that’s why I’m not sure -\_-)

I didn’t intend to finish this today, but…somehow that happened xD I read one chapter and took a break, thinking maybe I’d finish the rest off tomorrow, but I wanted to see how things resolved so I picked it up again.

The first chapter I read today was a very text-heavy and backstory-heavy chapter so it took me a while to work through. (I feel like I always spend lots of time on these types of chapters…my need to make sure I understand increases like 50-fold 😅 Backstory is very important to me lol) But it was worth it. Now we know how all the rumors started… Onizuka so did not deserve to have such a crappy high school experience, but the fact that he _still_ doesn’t seem to regret it because he feels like it was the right thing to do is just ❤💔 I think his grandpa would be so proud ❤

…On a lighter note, Onizuka apparently gets drunk in like five seconds 😂 That was quite cute.  
And I love how his response to finding out Junpei has feelings for him was basically dude, why are you freaking out, that’s fine lmao, he’s so chill about it 😂 I love him so much  
And it ends with them playing with the cat again and having a first kiss, how cute is that :3 Kind of wish this had a continuation, but I don’t think it does. May check out some of this author’s other work, though. The growth of their friendship and Onizuka’s character development was just sweet and heartwarming to watch ❤
