O brother where art thou? And I agree not enough sex and the mother was mean!!
(Right, on one! In a movie full of WTF scenes, that was an absolute winner.)
It's like Fuwa Shinri is getting bored of man-on-man and tried to imply they were passionate by telling us (instead of really showing us) it happens every night. She could've been courageous and honest by showing how they circle and hesitate, like most people do when they are reacquainting themselves with each other after a 4-year period of complete separation, like, say, Koakuma no Sanctuary. With the long sentimental build-up, I was expecting the rich and creamy cheese melting all over the plate, not lukewarm processed skim milk cheese slices on stale bread, with a slice of vinegary mom like a pickle on top. Maybe she doesn't want to draw yaoi anymore.
Love your comparison, I found the resolution to be really weak too. And the uke was kind of a spineless momma's boy...
It was weak.
"Okay, ma, I love you, but this time you're wrong and I'm standing up for my partner."
There, was that so difficult?
First day back and you are in excellent form, as usual. I love your sense of humor and the way you think.
I agree, I was looking forward to... anything that wasn't this sad excuse for an ending. A fight with mom; a secret rendezvous; Yuu moving out to support his "starving artist" lover. I got this weird feeling of waking up after great sex to find my partner has sneaked off and even given me a fake phone number. Wham, bam, thank you ma'am.
FINALLY! Good grief, there was more cock-blocking in this story than in a 40-storey chicken coop. Geez. Yuuma has way too much patience. Don't get me wrong. I like strong women and fierce, protective mothers, but I like men who have some spine when it comes to their mommies, too.
