Papa is the best character I swear. He is the shining star.

I know readers are afraid to finish this because the ending is supposed to be trash but that's just (from what ive heard) from the novel's ending. We don't actually know if this comic is going to follow the novel's ending. So far its been seeming to purposefully subvert the nonsensical cliches / tropes in shoujo.

So maybe we still shouldn't give up hope that the ending will still be as empowering as we hoped itd be & as good as the story's been so far!

I CANT BELIEVE IT, I JUST CAN'T! IT'S BACK, OH MY GOD ITS BACK, THIS IS THE BEST GIFT!!! SEE YOU IN FEBRUARY, WAREHOUSE AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

This story is still kinda hard to follow, even when reading all the chapters together. Especially on why the characters do things they do. Like, am I supposed to know why white haired guy kidnapped Chao Yi?

I thought this was so cute!

Yeah I think there needs to be more story before whatever the theme of this ibecomes clear. As of now, the premise is kinda obscure but still promising. All I understand mainly is that Yukio is conflicted on the desire to harm or protect his brother? Im still not sure why he wants to harm him in the first place, but that & the meaning of the intriguing title, "Youre Myself, Im Yourself", should surely be explained in future chapters should they ever come..

THOSE WERE ALL BEAUTIFUL, I LOVE THIS AUTHOR

I'm just gonna throw in my two cents because I can.
I like the idea of Araki changing as a person for the better. And the author is already making it clear that Kyujo & him are end game so we know he's going to have his happy ending. Those ideas are both sweet, optimistic, & comforting (not that this book is deep but when reading it & relating it to the reality of life we're familiar with, its nice.)

But...the way it's executed is..cheesy?
The writing for this manga has always been like this so its not like anything has changed. But i guess in this case it just feels apparent how forced it feels to do the same thing other books do: now that the main pair has told their story, gotta move on to the second pair!

Just how the secondary characters neatly hook up with each other to complete the set feels so..forced.
I mean I get that the main appeal of this work is probably that its smut with a cute little story attached to it. But depicting characters with human emotions we're all familiar with, such as what the author is going for currently with Araki's transformation, would usually feel organic & relateable, but just feels plastic coming after a point when it feels there is nothing really left to tell for Kotarou's story. Especially after Araki was initially introduced as a plot device & kinda demonized for a while, it seems he serves a new purpose of entertaining since Ayumi & Kotaro have nothing left to tell.
Of course im not necessarily trying to hate on something people like reading. If you enjoy reading this then that's great!
I'm just trying to sort out my thoughts on what I felt bothered me about this current story. And possibly to explain if there are others who feel the same way?

This comic is really entertaining in an extremely trashy way.

Aaaaahhh!!! I'm so excited to buy this too when it comes out gwaahhh!!!

I got to buy this gem at my local bookstore & it just makes me so incredibly happy that I own this & get to see a physical copy of this in my house!
