Cute book, but a lot of the relationship seemed non-consensual, which is not okay.

They’re so cute! I can’t wait to read the rest of the books and see how their relationship develops.

Cute little slice of life character study of the main character, especially Shun and his relationship with his family. I remember being recommended this manga on Twitter a few years ago, and I just reread it because I remembered it the other day (like a year ago lol).

this manga sucked so bad lmao. as i was reading this i had a sense of deja vu and i realized i had seen the anime adaptation of this. i went to my letterboxd to see if i had written a comment or review and found my review where i wrote "messy and horny 💀." after reading this my review of the anime can be applied to both. the characters have zero chemistry or development. every character is actual quite underdeveloped and aren't fully realized characters. why is shuan lusting after a child when he's an adult of an undisclosed age, and why is his ex-fiance and mio fighting over him, a random bland ass guy. i do not recommend this to anyone. how the hell does this have several volumes and who is this written for?
