Phewwww, what a ride! Until the end I wasn't sure how Sho would truly react and if he would commit to Jun (or rather to his feelings) I LOVE Jun in this. He is mature and serious and smart. I think younger Jun would have freaked out and cried but adult Jun just handled the whole situation so well (more than well actually). I think my favorite part is when Jun goes down to business and "corners" Sho in his apartment, he is super-brave for doing that - it takes a lot to do something like that, and put your own feelings and pride and dignity on risk - and I love how he told Sho this: “So, leave it alone,” Jun urged once more. “If I can do it, then you can too. But, you know, my guess is that you’re just being selfish. You don’t want anyone else to have what you can’t claim for yourself.” That's the core of the problem, I think. I mean, Sho maybe didn't do it intentionally, but when it comes down to it, that's the truth.
I love how in comparison to Jun Sho is more insecure and less honest... and less of an adult (even if he might believe he is), but still his reaction and fears are understandable. I felt Jun, when he said, just be nice in the first place, because that's so true. Sho is such a serious character, who probably overthinks everything too much. I absolute love how Jun was the one who was mature about everything this time and tried to reason. He didn't force Sho into committing, he just wanted to finally move on: either with Sho or alone.
