Honestly I’m kinda getting bored

This manga really had me for the first 6 maybe 8 chapters. But by this point I’m just getting bored by how long it’s taking for any real growth in the relationship between these two, specifically mutually. Like yeah, their feelings have grown but there was just so much that they had to cover here and that they’re trying to pack on that it feels like they’re trying to get to the next plot point before they fully resolve even the last three.

Spoilers ~

I mean, he got transported to this new world that’s a novel of his sisters. So he’s gotta resolve his feelings on that.

Then he’s gotta resolve his feelings on most likely being an omega.

And resolve his feelings on being in a gay relationship.

And resolve his feelings on being in a lower class with a high class partner.

Like, none of these are really resolved at all before they skip to the next one. Sure, he says he realizes he doesn’t care that he’s a guy, but it doesn’t *feel* like he worked his way through that. So everything just feels both rushed and slow at the same time.

I think maybe I’d feel more invested in the story if by this point they rushed it to the moment they admitted their feelings for each other. But instead it seems like they’re just going to go for another moment of “Now I won’t tell him my feelings for him because I realize the risks of dating somebody of his status” that he somehow never realized could be a possibility all this time. And instead we’ll get another handful of chapters waiting for Jasper to figure this out and pulling the feelings out of him. Ugh

    I understand your frustration, but it's a huge decision on Taisei's part. Admitting his feeling for Jasper means agreeing to be his partner, finding a way for his family/society to accept him; marrying into a sexist noble family, determining to stay in that bigoted world even if he might have to chance to go back to his old world.
    Even I can't say for sure that I will choose love if I were Taisei.

    Feelings can't be always resolved easily
