I never know how to feel about Saikawa. In one moment, he seems sweet and supporting which I love, but then in the next moment he has thoughts like "I don't want him to show his face to anyone else", "I don't want him to expand his social circle", "I hate seeing him having fun and chatting with other people". Seeing Sayama opening up to other people and becoming more confident is something that I personally love to see and is one of the reasons I actually like this manga. So to see Saikawa (who is supposed to be his biggest supporter and someone who LOVES him) just get upset about his progress just comes across as douch-ey and insecure. But at least he's trying to support him despite these thoughts, and he don't really say them out loud, so at the same time I can't completely get mad at him. He also did say that Sayama mends his insecurities which is positive. But I dislike how this manga seem to romanticize this aspect about Saikawa, when it really isn't something positive at all. I wish he would focus on feeling happy for Sayama rather than getting insecure about him widening his horizons. That would be great character development for him as well. But eh, I think I like him more than dislike.
Other than that I liked this a lot more than I expected. I really like Sayama as a character!!
Not really sure how I feel about this one. It kinda felt like a cheating story, because of the way the main guy kept getting seduced by Kazuha when he said he loved Rei? Have some shame… it was alright at first, but after realizing who he loved he should have stopped. I don’t know, it’s just a turn off to me personally! Other than that, like someone else said, they focused too much on the curing of DID rather than the actual relationship between the guys. I didn’t really feel the passion.
I’m probably in the minority here but I couldn’t really enjoy the story despite the sweetness and lack of problematic themes. I just didn’t like the dynamic between the main characters. It feels way way way too heteronormative!! If you replaced the bottom with a girl no one would even notice, even down to his looks and his damn chest/nipples screams “I’m a girl in disguise”. Doesn’t help when the top is double his size and 10 times manlier. I don’t know, I just get turned off when the dynamic is too obviously straight coded, but it that’s just me. I liked the grandpa a lot tho!!
Now this is exactly what a good fluffy BL should look like! It's a perfect example to prove that BL can have a healthy and consensual relationship with good communication WITHOUT being boring!! I had a blast reading the whole thing.
This was so sweet and simple, loved it!! I also liked how they incorporated some old school art with a more modern style, it was very beautiful. Too bad we didn't get to see them switch though, I love switch couples.
Ugghhhhhhh this was adorable!!! Just the right amount of drama and fluff.
Okay, I'm 26 chapters in and why the hell do they keep referring to Yeong's arousal as him getting wet (and showing it like he's a girl)? He's a DUDE, his arousal is shown by him getting hard! And you're telling that as a full grown adult male he has NO IDEA what a blow job is? Nah, this just SCREAMS heteronormativity by feminizing Yeong and it's such a turn off Just make a straight manga if this is what you want.
I read this on a whim but I absolutely loved it!! Gotta watch the anime next. I want to meet the hero so bad, 100+ chapters in and we've only seen a glimpse of him RIP.
