I Thot You Was a Toad's manga / #prescient dreams(2)

Tamura has the gift of prescient dreams, but one of these dreams is more like a curse because it is an explicit sex dream and his future lover is a man. What happens when this fated lover, Seiwa, shows up at Tamura's school? Hilarious and, in spite of the comedy, mature and goodnatured. I love Tamura's family and friends.

Prescient dreams, destiny and literal translations of dream imagery cloud up the simple matter of a travel writer and his employee falling in love. In this case, the supernatural plot device actually interferes with the more interesting story of how people fall in love over shared inspirations, ambitions, sympathy for circumstances and life goals, and it really gets in the way when the protagonist is in denial about being gay, since it makes overly light work of the business of overcoming that degree of resistance—turns that struggle into a hashjob, actually. But it seems, from the direction of the last scenes in this chapter, like the mangaka has twigged onto that problem, and wants a better resolution. This possibility and hope hooks me. it will be interesting to see where it leads.
