Comments of Ikumen After

The kids were just too adorable and the manga was great. I'm glad this story didn't remain unfinished.

Gay dads rule

please upload T^T

A different perspective of single fathers, very enjoyable of watching a relationship develop slowly. Hope to read more!

Can't wait to see what happens next. So far so good the story is very funny and sweet.

The story was cute, but the ending was ruined for me. Spoiler! I guess I should be ashamed to admit that I am not sexually mature enough to accept that the AV thing is just work, like how the uke just accepted it like doing AV is just really being an extra in a movie. And here I thought the uke was supposed to be almost like a virgin even with a child). I don't even think the uke heard the word "doing AV all day". For someone so depressed upon seeing the seme kissing another guy and being unable to talk "maturely" with the seme about it, you would think the uke would have a different reaction than the one he had when he learned the seme was making AV all day. Fron his reaction, you would think the seme was admitting to working at another restaurant for more money.

And then there's the seme. I get it that although he's a strong man, having his house burned almost to the ground really did him in. No matter how cheerful in your life you are, this kind of thing will also make you weak and helpless. And people like that do strange things that are oppose to their principles. I get that. But I guess I am also not emotionally mature enough to accept that excuse. I don't think I will accept that the seme, wanting to get out of the uke's house asap for fear of jumping the uke, accepted the AV work. Say what? The seme, to get out of having sex with the uke prematurely, had sex all day with another guy? Uh, yes, that's what it says right there in the last chapter. It was kind of mentioned so slyly, that the passive look by the uke made me think the uke wasn't paying too much attention to what was said. The only thing that registered to his mind is that the other guy was not a lover. Yup, the other guy was not a lover, just someone the seme had sex with all day. So, a sex friend! A sex co-worker? The seme did not really clarified that, and the uke was too satisfied with the words "not a lover" for him to bother with it.

This is work, I'm desperate, blah, blah, blah. Nobody was forcing him to get out of the house fast. He has time to do something, because a lot of people are willing to help him. He is not out of work, he has a temporary housing and although you have a child, the kid thinks he is in heaven. So, what's the rush that you have to accept something you don't want in the first place. And the seme knows what kind of a man the uke is. It is one thing to hear some person who you just met to be engaging in making AV in the past, but it is a different story to hear someone you love doing AV in the present. I didn't know the seme could be that stupid.

Basically, what that part tells me is that the seme coud be bought for a price. Here is a horny kid who really, really wants to star with the seme in an AV, for who knows how long that kid has waited for the seme to return to making AVs. And that said horny kid is even willing to sacrifice his pay for that movie, just so you would agree to making that movie. And the end result? That horny kid got what he wanted and was satisfied all day by the seme. Lucky kid.

And yes, that "all day" really stuck in my mind all day and got my imagination running.

everybody around asakura: damn, bitch, you’re sexy as hell. walk past one more time so i can see that ass

asakura: *sigh* everybody just sees me as a sad, lonely old widower...

Well, this is super fluffy but it's pretty nice to read when you just want something nice and easy. It's cute and the fathers are very devoted) There is no explicit scene though there is some sensual moments

This is a really cute, sweet story about two single dads Asakura and Kentarou, whose young sons happen to go to the same daycare.

No smut, which is fine but why have one of the main character as an AV actor? Relationship seem fine until the AV introduction. I felt the story headed south after that and quickly finished. Unsatisfied when it had a promising start.

12?can't move past the av part. just can't. it would have been one of my best otherwise.

it was pretty good but i just couldnt pay attention in the last few chapters :I not enough plot development :I

This is one of the first BL manga I read. Reading it again after a few years I realize how tame it was but still very sexy. There are some things I wish were flushed out a bit more: Asakura's awakening feelings, especially his jealousy over Hikaru. I think he was a little too understanding over Izumi deciding to do AV for money. And of course the lack of a bigger love scene was unfulfilling to my heart! Overall I love this story and I think it's one of the best.

Adorably, breathtaking, and very real representation of single father situations, and having to deal with young children in the midst of trying to attempt another shot at love after heartbreak. The real life situations of "just when the moo gets good, the kids come in," and "the love, health, and well-being of the kids comes first before all else," are so well executed and represented here, that one could either completely facepalm, or get a serious case of deja-vu. Incredible plot, story, theme, and characters! Only thing I would change is how obedient and we'll behaved the children are, but I'm not sure this idea could be done without completely altering the feel of this romantic love story. So, all in all, well done! 5 out of 5! Highly recommended read, even if no sex is shown, and it merely stays pg with a mature lean for younger readers. ^.^

Love how SINGLE fathers love they're own sons and having a new love life

UPDATE THIS PLEASE!!! STORY WAS SOOOOOO INTERESTING I WANT MORE!!!!

beautiful amazing cute would read 10 times over

this wasn’t fluffy at all. i love the pairing, men with kids, however their miscommunication rlly took a toll on me. the level of angst when they didn’t talk about the gay movie, the kissing in the park, bro that made me anxious and felt like sobbing. the communication is so bad, i wanna throw punches to the seme. uke is such a selfless person, damn it.

hmm that was pretty long. i feel like after the 2nd vol, it's sort of all over the place? like the author thought of another plot and instead of making a new manga for it, they just changed this story instead? also that thing with hikaru was brushed off so easily...and i dont like how uke gradually became more petite & feminine unlike the 1st vol, i dont get why some authors like to portray men as feminine once they bottom for another man like...they can be manly and a bottom why make such changes

Realistic portrayal of single dads struggling with childrearing after losing their partners. Uke lost his wife in an accident and had to toughen up for his son, resulting in him bottling his emotions and reflected in his son's behaviour soon after. It's resolved when they met seme who has full custody of his son after the divorce. Seme is working multiple jobs to make ends meet but his personality is always positive and cheerful, which influenced uke to be more motivated in living for the sake of his son.

The last volume was a bit messy with the drama in seme acting in BL movie. If it's about their struggle to match their schedules or basically just about them, it'd be more fluff. But dang he got gossip editors threatening to release articles about him unless he retired immediately? So much drama and less kids lol. But overall it resolved well so it's a good read still
