Mimi's manga / #family dynamic(36)

Very cute but also very average in terms of story. As much as I loved this family of Yuu, Kei, and Ren I felt like it wasn't as emotional as I really hoped it was going to be. My most invested parts were Yuu and his conflict with being a child who has no time to BE a child because of his job as an actor as well as not being able to spend time with his mother, the only parent he has right now, who is a CEO. Kei being his parental guardian and adding Ren fulfilling a similar role, when it came down to them doing the mundane it was very cute and made me sad. I do wish there was more emotion put in the scene where Yuu got to talk to his mom about how he felt, it was still nice... I wanted her to cry but it was still nice. The only time I felt bored was when we took time away from Yuu, away from the 3 of them learning about each other more was when cut to Kei and Ren's acting job conflicts. It was boring to me and some explanations were a bit dumb because it just felt like rich people problems and, Lord, did I not care. It wasn't even about anything interesting either. One had a fear of and felt jealous over being surpassed by other child actors while the other was dealing with only being seen as one type of character he played. It's fine but also I'm board. Also, there were parts where they would talk about growing as people or talking about Yuu's conflicts only to cut away to their acting conflicts and I just roll my eyes. Another small thing that got to me was the progression of the confession. A part of me felt like it was rushed, just a little bit forced and that's probably because we're at the last chapter. It was fine but I do wish we got that confession earlier so we got that time to see them also grow as a couple. Lastly, there was so much apologizing. Like, everyone was overly apologetic about everything.

More of same feelings I had from the first book. But after reading both of these books I'm just kind of disappointed... The art's cute. Cocomi knows how to draw some really cute art. The more softer, cute moments in the story were very adorable. But what made this drag for me and had me praying for it to be done after chapter 3 was just the conflicts. The conflicts where just kind of dumb to me and it all just came down to not communicating. However, there was a story reason why no one wanted to communicate which sort of gets a pass but still very annoying to read 17 times. I did like the end. I thought the end was cute. Didn't make me cry or anything but still a cute end chapter.

Lord, I need to find more B/GL like this. The way it's written you can tell that they focused on character building first rather than sex and the characters themselves are very enjoyable to read. That beginning where I literally had about 2 heart attacks I was in for a ride. This story is all about one person trying to get the other to fall back in love with him after an accident that left him with a moderate case of amnesia and it's both one of the cutest and saddest manga I've read. I cried a couple of times towards and at the end because of how bittersweet this story was. I'm also just a sucker for any B/GL story where they have a child, a pet, and/or get married. That 100% fucks me up. I need this to officially be licensed so bad.
