There was the moment at the end, where Kei said they were like newlyweds. And I wrote it off just as the sentiment of living together. Than... I remembered: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/aoi_hitomi_no_bakemono/uu/d_v-1-chapter-5/pg-26/
OMG! Grandpa is there! It's like a proposal with the elders present.
I see the budding spring of our young drag queen coming ~♡
So we have Hina, our darn cute heroine, who inherited a 'ballot' = an orb of mysterious power we find out is very important to the plotline. She is intended to give this orb to an equally enigmatic dude the 'Red Baron'.
I was prepared for the typical lucky protagonist stumbling over nude girls or a pervert hunting for underwears with a hidden past. I was not disappointed, and despite everything I surprisingly liked Rihoto. He is the first and probably the last character in this type of category I actually liked. And even found his attics funny.
There were several things which stood out to me. Like the fact that we progressed in the story real quickly. And by that point, girls were already popping up from left to right, falling in love with our protagonist. Which started to give me that bad 'Oh, man. This is so going to be a harem.' Fortunately, that didn't end up happening and Granpa-Uncle Rihito successfully got together with the daughter of his brother.
It weirded me out that every few chapters late people either got killed off or got a rebound. But, all can be solved by the power of love, I guess.
Oh. And the kid thing. Let's say using the some trope over and over again gets old pretty fast.
I don't mean any form of violence against kids is good. No. But seriously. There are infinitely more evil things out there which could instigate people ire than that. Just get a little more creative over here!
This reminds me of a series of 23 books I read once, which was in fact my favorite for a time. Let's say the writer's outstanding talent outshined the fact that they considered rape the only act of violence known to mankind.
This manga. Cuteness overload. I'm practically drowning in toothacheing, diabet inducting sweetness. I want little Tsubaki as my boyfrien~♡♡♡
And Yuu-nii...In the beginning, I had this hallucination of this flower ahoge blooming atop his head as a nursery rhyme players on a sunny background. Maybe a butterfly passing by. The total herbivore, but than I changed my mind when I saw this: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/shota_oni/uu/d_chapter-5/pg-3/
Yuu-nii give me just enough predatory and attachment toward the young boy next door, that I know Tsubaki had already conquested his future waifu.
He is already the embodiment of the ideal boy-next-door even before he grow up. An ikemen! All Tsubaki needs to know now wbat boyfriend means in the great scheme of things.
I have mixed feelings towards this manga. Like...I really liked it? The art is nice and homey, and the story is just so fluffy despite fitting the mold of many ghost x human cp. It's give me a nice feeling. And the background story of the MC is touching.
Than...towards the end...where I thought we would get the cliche, but still nice wake up from the coma and be happy ever after...We discover the supportive ML lead was in fact a kid under ten years old. And our MC becomes a lolicon. And I'm so glad it ended there, because whatever relationship they would have after that give me heartburns and make me feel weird inside.
PS: I don't have anything against age gap couples. It's your life, your chance and has absolutely nothing to do with me, whom people decide to spent the rest of their life on this earth with.
But, it's a liberty of expression is still a thing. So I have the right to complain, because I'm the one reading the story, and while I still turn a blind eye to let's say a twelve to thirteen years gap between couples. The thought of someone reaching the age of sexual maturity, where it's possible to have children and their life partner still being under 0. Well, that's just weirds me out.
I like this manga so much, but even I think it's going in a weird direction.
