I loved this. I'm sad that the series is only two volumes, but I think it's such a beautiful examination of what a family can be and of a cultural divide. A sweet and endearing story with moments of melancholy.
My Brother's Husband, vol 2 continues the story of Yaichi, a straight man living in Japan, and Mike, a gay Canadian who was once married to Yaichi's twin brother. When Mike comes to stay, Yaichi finds himself facing his own biases, as well as his unresolved grief from his brother's death.
The second volume of My Brother's Husband is actually quite heartbreaking. It's obvious from the start of this story that eventually Mike would need to return to Canada, and this is what happens here. But what's so satisfying about it is that you can see how much Yaichi and his daughter Kana's lives has been improved by inviting this member of their family into their home. My Brother's Husband is a short series (it's only two volumes in the US and four in Japan) but it handles the topic of confronting homophobia (both in ourselves and in society) in such a grounded way, that I would highly recommend it to others.

Adorable and beautiful. I got very emotional at the end.

Un manga en el que los dos primeros tomos ya me parecieron necesarios, entretenidos y preciosos pero que esta segunda parte ha conseguido mejorar esa línea. No solo ha mantenido el ritmo y a superado mis expectativas sino que me ha hecho llorar, y no de tristeza.
La evolución de Yaichi durante las 4 entregas está bien pensada y estructurada, tiene momentos en este cuarto Tom de decir YES como así muy fuertemente.
A demás de que Kana es un amor y Mike es el oso canadiense más amoroso.

If I wasn't an emotionless alien, I would be crying.
Such a good second volume with great character development and a heartbreaking story.
