Technically, her drawings are all okay except for the faces. Like, hands, arms, clothing, etc. are all decent and technically correct, but they lack detail. It's as if the mangaka really doesn't know how to draw fine, detailed characters and surroundings, and she's hoping that creating this sort of sketchy, messy art will get her a pass since the story is cute. If she had just put some more effort into defining the character's faces, I think it would have been a vast improvement.
I Agree, I dont like the art too much either and I also agree that the scenes proposed by this author help me a lot to continue reading.
While I'm thrilled this cute and sexy duo are back in action, I'm not looking forward to the waiting. Always the waiting.
I love Kanda's private thoughts and facial expressions!
I loved them too!! I was cracking up because of them!!
Everyone says cute and warm fuzzies, which yes, it has, but it also bothers me that the seme continues to be a porn star (or that the uke allows it). How many of you could date someone whose job was to screw a bunch of different people for their job? Not to mention oral sex. Could you kiss your lover knowing his/her mouth was only hours ago doing intimate things with some stranger's hoo-hoo? For me, these types of stories, ones with sex outside of a relationship (cheating, porn, av), always ruin an otherwise sweet and adorable manga.
Oh please! Don't bring in your morals into a manga that is obviously meant for entertainment due to its irregularities. Did you not read what the MC said? He said it was a job he loved. Who are you to tell him that the job he loves isn't a job that deserves a lover? There is a little thing called hygiene and the yes-no pillow. It's up to the lover to deal with that. He chose a pornstar so I know he's aware of the implications. It's screwed up but it doesn't mean it's wrong. They're human with jobs most people think is dirty when it's nothing more than a means to pay the bills. You don't own the right to belittle them like that.
Everyone has a right to their opinion, and you'll find all sorts of them - good, bad, neutral - all over manga sites and forums. Some people will agree with me, others won't. No big deal. And I never said that it was wrong, I just made it clear that I didn't like it. The questions I asked in my post are just food for thought - not a bible of do's and don'ts - and just another form of my opinion. I don't get pissed at posters who comment about rape or shota storylines, so chill.
There really are a lot of grey areas when it comes to cheating or sex outside of a relationship, and people's different perceptions of it. Is it or is it not cheating if its: behind one's back; part of a job; emotional; consensual (open relationship), etc. Yeah, this is a manga after all, so it's all taken lightly, but certainly there are other readers here who also don't like that the seme is still active in AV. IRL, most normal people wouldn't want to be in relationship with someone who had sex with other people, love or no love, man or woman (doesn't matter), job or no job.
I don't like the fact that he remains a pornstar but the manga itself is quite nice. So I see things from your point.
Yeah, that was really off-putting for me too.
I'm really sorry, I put an "annoying" by accident. And wanted to make it clear because I agree with you. I liked the story and everything is sweet, but the fact that the seme is still doing his job bothers me a little(well, no. Bothers me A LOT)
You're Chisato. Now ask yourself something: If you just find out that the man who's been in love with you for so many years has been fucking your younger brother - since he was in JUNIOR HIGH, as a replacement for you, would you be okay with that?
That just pissed me off to no end. And what made it worse, Masaki, who KNEW that Kanae loved Chisato the whole friggin' time, treated it like it was no big deal. Really, people.
well unrequited love is hard to deal with and not everybody deals with it the same way but just try to imagine how you're madly in love for 10 years I mean 10 years and by the way not everybody who's in love thinks about the happiness of their loved ones first... it's kinda cruel saying it like that but it's true and hey I kinda went crazy and did stupid things after only half a year of unrequited love
loving is not only about desire lust and wanting to share everything but also wanting to look the best right so I kinda thought too that Saita (is that his name?)behaves in a stupid way
the thing is we never get to know something about him and how he thinks (well a little) but there's a high possibility (to me) that he never had the possibility to learn about tender loving and he's actually doing a hella good job on not forcing his feelings onto Chisato
still don't want to be Chisato...
Mainly I have an issue with the fact that he slept with Chisato's underage brother. That's illegal. :) It would have been a whole different matter if Kanae slept around with other people his age, even while in an unrequited love, and kept his hands off the boy. If my long-time friend who was now an adult, slept with my younger sister who was in middle school, I'd be furious. It wouldn't matter if they had an unrequited love for me, that's no excuse.
Totally agree with you, Kanae was a fucking scum, and if I had been Chisato, I would punched him inthe nuts till they turned into a vagina. What a fucking creep. He is only lucky that Takashi didn't end up super messed up mentally, and saw it as playing around.
Super sweet, and before you know it, it's all gone. Yeah, short and sweet one-shots that go from zero to sixty in a split second. Quick fun to pass the time until you find something more meaty.
I would break up with him. I wouldn't want a partner who got more turned on when they were imagining me as someone else.
but i never really did, sorry. I guess it's because if I were maru, i would have a hard time getting over and trusting a boyfriend who was a slut previously. maybe maru was wanting to test him a bit, too, to see how strong mu's feeling really are.
I agree with you 100 %
Me too
Not trusting your lover is one thing, being toxic and borderline abusive is another. If you don’t trust your lover, leave them or talk to them.
