“Don’t take away an old man’s little joys.” XD

Less of a sequel, more like the original in a different setting. No character development or plot progression, and Reborn and Lambo are still typecast as an arrogant rapist and a rape victim with Stockholm Syndrome. I agree with every comment that Lambo deserves better treatment, but the readers also deserve better than a one-trick pony. So much lost potential...

Wow, yet another doujin where Reborn is a smug, abusive rapist and Lambo is weak-willed and obsessive. Are there any where he actually acts like he was raised in the mafia and is strong enough to be a guardian? Or where Reborn acts like someone who made the immense personal sacrifices he did? Getting kind of tired of these one-dimensional characters and overused plots.

I kinda want a spinoff where Haruki (the school pres) falls for a shopkeeper who turns out to be a Higashi High alum. If there’s anyone who deserves that amount of emotional turmoil in their love life...

I love Kobayashi and Nakeshima bonding over their possessiveness! XD

“What’s the newest word on my brother?”
“He has a secret girlfriend that he’ll deny if you ask him about, so it’s no use introducing him to girls.”
“Nice.”

Also, kudos for showing lube and condom use! (Remember kids, an ass full of cum means a morning full of diarrhea ~)

Imagine Shiba getting fed up with Shishidou constantly bothering his class and, partly out of pettiness, introducing him to the new girl - a huge, hulking reindeer who has a full set of antlers and towers over him. The herbivore class remains strangely peaceful for some time after.

(Fun fact: Female reindeer are roughly the same height/weight as female lions, and actually *can* grow taller than male lions!)

1st story: I’m fine with shota/age difference, but this kind of emotional manipulation isn’t okay with any couple. The seme comes off as a massive jerk taking advantage of the uke’s naïveté and lack of life experiences.
2nd story: Holy shit, you don’t bang your hookup on the family room couch, what the fuck is wrong with you?!!

The girl in the last chapter cracked me up! XD Usually I hate when a woman tries to break up the couple, but she was so upfront about her actions that a fairly quick resolution was allowed (as opposed to subtly drawing things out for weeks on end), and I was able to appreciate the humor of the “twist.”

Dude, Kouya deserves so much better! The club needs to tell that trash teacher to find a new place to smoke - or get the chairman to fire and blacklist his smug ass for having relations with a student. (I don’t actually mind that, but it’s a valid reason) The other two couples are cute and I want to see more, but this made me too angry to 100% enjoy the story.

[Spoilers]
The guy in the last story really pissed me off. Like, he rejected his partner for a job - for a legitimate reason - and knew they were hurting over it but didn’t comfort them because he thought it would be, what, morally wrong?! And he was surprised that they took it the wrong way, despite saying he denied their application because of how well he knew their personality? Then his partner immediately forgave him because clearly withholding emotional support and letting them suffer alone was a sign of love.
