One thing I kinda like about this manga is the romance, because it's there, and yet none of it revolves around the main character. I think that's why it's not labeled as romance, because there are no love interests for Shintarou.

 

It's kind of facinating, and oddly refreshing. It's like I'm reading a story where the main character is really a side character in someone else's story. I wish more Mangakas would try to write more stuff like that.

 

"Here's an interesting and complex guy/girl character! There's romance, but nothing involving them as anything more than stepping stones or tangential characters so we can use them to examine more complex and relatively untouched themes!" 

 

I dig it.

This is a late reply, but um a bit of a spoiler.

His love interest is kind of dead.
