The ludicrous mistaken identity premise of this series still manages to work for me as the main characters bond over cigarettes behind the supermarket. It's quiet and slow and comforting to wrap myself up into.

But then the bonus story and material slapped me in the face with the age gap, literally showing us pictures of the man at age 22, graduating college, and his future smoking partner as an infant. Oof.

I shouldn't like this series as much as I do.

First, it's about smoking. Filthy habit! Ugh! Why?!?! Fortunately, it's not a scratch-and-sniff book.

Second, it has an age-gap, May-September romance and that usually causes a knee-jerk "nuh-uh" from me. But the slow burn of it crept up on me like a frog sitting in a gradually heating pot of water.

Third, this is a manga built around a really thin and stupid premise stretched way beyond credibility, like Clark Kent's decades-long fooling of Lois Lane with a pair of glasses bad. But, I don't know, I just liked the characters so much that as with Kent and Lane I'm just gonna run with it.

Happily, my library has the next two volumes on hold, so I'm getting in line for them.
