Reviews for Imitation Mate Manga

This review contains spoilers. Last chapter really gives some whiplash and yandere vibes. The wholesome factor went further down. If you didn’t think Yoshiki was a red flag before, it’s cemented by the end. “Even if none of it was real”, what is the “it” exactly?

I’m scared of other reviewers’ interpretations where they think Yoshiki will throw Tsukasa away. My reading is that Yoshiki did get a thrill (but also fell in love) when he saw Tsukasa crying. Otherwise, there’s no reason to joke about dating and being scared of rejection in his internal dialogue. The whole stealing his girlfriends and marking them for life before breaking up is straight psycho behavior. Even if he didn’t bite them, the exes wouldn’t be taken back so he arguably ruined their lives when it wasn’t necessary. He did a number on Tsukasa too, isolating him and exacerbating the “omega = less beings” mindset. The ending heavily implies that he will make Tsukasa into an omega. An interesting twist but messed up. I choose to believe that this is all done in extreme possessiveness and out of overbearing love. Because it’s too sad for Tsukasa otherwise.

This review contains spoilers. Everything was so good, but that last panel just stopped me. Idk, I guess that last chapter of how Yoshiki deceived Tsukasa. I knew Yoshiki was a bit of an a*s, but this is on another level. I'm going to disregard the last half of the chapter.

It feels like Yoshiki will mark Tsukasa and then discard him, just as he has with Tsukasa's exes.

Yoshiki went from a jokster a*s to a complete monster. I personally feel like that was quite the jump in character and I'm not on board. Those last panels are non-existent to me.

This review contains spoilers. It was hard to figure out if Yoshiki was just playing Tsukasa, but after a while you get hints that he might actually like him regardless of whether he is an alpha or not. The ending left me wanting to see more of what happens to them. It feels like a fleeting moment, with Tsukasa probably still not believing that Yoshiki really likes him or if he was just fooling around just to get in his pants.

This review contains spoilers. The ending rlly ruined it like what was that. I hate when in these stories the alpha bottom turns into an omega but worse of all the top being a complete psycho was disappointing
