Guys, if tou think that if the ML was the older one, nobody would bat an eyelash... Y'all go read or re-read Usagi Drop. Creepy shit, the ending completely destroyed the whole wholesomeness of the manga and I personally don't know anyone who didn't hate it. ლ(´ڡ`ლ) Anyways, apart from the age gap, the problem here is that she is in the position of his guardian and him growing up and not seeing her as mother would be weirder since he came to her when he was 7 and for her to stop regarding him as a son/a child she brought up. The mental age thing is already uncomfortable enough for me (including all the isekais where MC gets transmigrated/reincarnated into a baby's body), physical age gap + parent-child relationship is a cherry on top. Same reason why I'm uncomfortable with Child of this House or Daughter of the Emperor as well as most parents-relationships in Cardcaptor Sakura. Anyways, the art is pretty and their interactions are pretty funny so I'm going to continue until the romance kicks in, that's probably when I'm going to drop this ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ this is a nice case of liking something but still being critical of it for me I guess...or maybe liking a part of it

    Oh god, please don’t remind me of usagi drop... so far, it doesn’t seem like either has any romantic feelings so it’s pretty good so far, and at least the fact that the MC is immortal makes age gaps more easier to handle(for some reason) the only problem is that shes basically his mom and I just don’t want to think about it XD

    omg YES I've been complaining about child of this house too. like even if we forget the part about the mental ages, the fact that they literally watched them grow up is what makes me really uncomfortable! i kinda still had hope that they wouldn't end up together in child of this house but i guess not

    Also, I don’t like age gaps in general and I really don’t like it when the ml is like way older than the mc and he also has known her since she was a child. Like hakflsbdkdn

    fr even in books where the fl is actually older in mental age, it's still weird both ways cause the man doesn't know that but he's still attracted to a "child" #?#-#($($

    but like I'm still reading this cause I'm not sure but does she end up with him or not? i cant see how they'd pull that off cause she's like a mom to him rn

    I think someone said that the ml falls in love first and the whole love drama in the plot is him trying to get her to see him in a romantic light I think.

    The age gaps just get creepier the older I am myself... Like how do you not see a teenager as a child is beyond me ┗( T﹏T )┛ and the whole 'but the younger one is mentally older which is why we just get each other' is used irl by grown-ass adults being attracted to 15 year olds is like hell no dude you're just freaking creepy, no matter how mature a 15 year old think they are, they are still just 15 for goodness sake and you should know better!

    Same... Idk maybe they will pull it off really well but if it's going to be the creeping in suspicion of a questionable romance, I'm going to say byebye and live with the image of the two of them as happy mom and son in my head

    fr I'm 15 rn and I'm always"thirsting" after older men in books but if they were to reciprocate irl it would be VERY creepy actually.
