Was it a good manga? Yes. Was it wild from start to end? Hell yes. It's well written, interesting, good characters, story was told in a great way. Its not so much that the manga is bad so much as it is the actual characters are, a pedo rapist mother, a cheating boyfriend, and a rival love interest who could have had such a bigger and amazing role in the whole thing that would have made the story even more interesting than it already is. He had a really small role even though he seemed to have had a really interesting story line but the author kinda rushed him. Don't even get me started on the pedo mom, this isn't the first time I've read a manga where the older women go after the young guys and magakas always try to make it seem less creepy by making the 12-13 year olds look like they're 16 year olds. It doesn't make it any less creepy, sorry. I won't act like despite all those weird aspects this manga wasn't good, because it definitely was tbh. Also Maeda is gay don't @ me.
Maybe I read wrong but I'm sure the main guy was in his third year of middle school which means he was at least 15. It doesn't change the fact that it was unerage contact but I just feel like 12-13 is very different from 15-16. BUT I totally agree that its still very pedo-ish of the biological mom to willingly have sex which a minor! A bit disturbing actually, I had to pause myself from reading for a second to process it and give myself the OK to continue reading. But Aside from that, I totally loved the manga. A very unique plot which I can appreciate!
You're probably right about the age, I forgot that the years in Japan are different so they're a bit older in lower grades vs. in the U.S.
Both MCs are in their 2nd year of high school when Raichi turns 3. Which means Tetsu was 13-14 when Raichi was born and "Sachi" was then 20-21 (considering she was 7 years older than Tetsu).
So yeah, despite this being a good manga and a good story, this was, to say the least, disturbing. Let's call it as it was, an adult taking advantage of a kid. Because no matter how big or mature 13-14 year olds can be, they're that - kids. And she was a student teacher. Basically money-earning adult. Interestingly, in the manga, no one seemed shocked or creeped out by it, they were rather much surprised by the fact he's a single dad. And that really sad.
In which did they talk about that pedo bitch
In which chapter did they talk about that pedo bitch
*SPOILER ALERT*
First of all, teach your kid not to eat from strangers! This moved waaaay too fast, like legit he confesses his love within the first 50 PAGES. It wasn't developed or anything, like the day he started working for him, a couple days later he fell in love. Not to mention he just kept having rough sex with him out of frustration, then a couple days later ASKED FOR HIM TO MARRY HIM. And stupid Hiro-tan said yes, as if shits all gravy.
The thing I have about this manga is that its cliche..but at the same time ISN'T. I've never read a shoujo manga where the mc and the love interest are already dating from chapter 1, even if it was just a trial at the time. Usually the whole thing with shoujo is the thrill of them meeting and developing the relationship. But this mangaka completely skipped that and said "nahh shes gonna confess in chapter 2"...AND IT WORKS, for this manga at least. Its an interesting plot for sure. The guys personality is definitely different, he's smart, an a-hole but also a sweet guy. His mischievousness is attractive and this mangaka makes it al work.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't impressed. Yet, for some reason it also felt cliche? Idk why, there was hardly anything cliche about it..I mean the mc wasn't even the main attraction of the cultural festival (which they usually are) she was just a rat!! Anyways, this is getting long so all I can really say is...read it. I feel like this could've been a 9.0 rated manga, but something didn't make it that. If you know what it is tell me below lol!!
This mangaka has a thing for forbidden loves, check out their other mangas if you dont get what Im talking about. Makes me wonder why lol.
No sensei is plainly a masochist xD is something I'd like to believe because it's the same with me lol
Nagisa-sensei is one of my favourite authors to say the least. I remember reading Number Call and Gunjou and thinking they were the literal embodiments of what amazing Shounen-ai is like. Sweet, pure, developing love between two guys. It's nice to read something this pure and refreshing. I honestly look forward to sooo much more from the mangaka. Hopefully their mangas become lengthier too, I feel like they could write some serious stuff with dramatic climaxes, love triangles, jealousy, basically the whole Shoujo ordeal, but put into Shounen-ai lol.
But the fact that Kouran looks like a 10 year makes me uncomfortable
Be glad you never met me then, I look 12 and I'm 19. I love it though. Always get away with paying less for tickets and it makes ppl feel protective so whenever I need help it's easy to find, and when someone turns creepy even strangers back me up. Not saying it doesn't have bad points, but all in all not bad.
It depends, at my new school one of the teachers thought I was a student. I'm teaching at an elementary school. That's more than a 10 years difference, how are people supposed to take me seriously?
You just described me.... Are you my twin?
I babysit some kids in elementary school, and when I go pick them up, I am often asked what class I'm in. There is about ten years difference between me and them.
I think it makes it better since I'm a lolicon o3o
What we're not gonna sit here and do, is acT LIKE THATS NORMAL BRUH. SHIT AIN'T GRAVY. If some rando guy pretended he was my dog and had sex with me, not only would I call the cops. I would KILL MYSELF FOR BELIEVING MY DOG CAME BACK FROM THE DEAD TO HAVE SEX WITH ME.
Ok so I checked out the author and I read Nisekoi Boyfriend a while back, and now I understand why this manga is weird asf. This mangaka writes weird stuff bruh.
The funny thing is, when I realized that this is the same mangaka that wrote Number Call, I wasn't surprised how freaking beautiful and amazing this manga is within two chapters. I'm definitely looking forward to this manga.
Its weird to describe a manga as "soothing" but this one is legitimately soothing and refreshing. Its slow but at the same time not too slow, everything happens at exactly the right time. The relationship they develop is so cute and sweet and honestly kind of the embodiment of shounen ai. My favourite part is 100% when Ino yawns and right after Kiyo yawns and then Ino smirks and blushes a little cause he knows Kiyo is looking at him because he yawned. If that isn't the cutest shit ever idk what is.
