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
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!
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
