Reviews for Ogi's Summer Break Manga

This review contains spoilers. I was attracted to the unusual combination of a blind boy and a gay boy and the cute pattern in the trial reading, and I was curious about the story, so I bought the book. I don't usually write reviews at all, but I was surprised that this author's way of thinking about minorities (I feel like it's nonsense to describe it that way after reading it, but that's the only thing I can find words for) is more flat than ever before. First of all, the main character's sexuality is very complicated... I like boys, but that doesn't mean I don't like girls either (or rather, I don't know because I have no experience); I wear nails, put on makeup, and try to look like girls, but that doesn't mean I want to be a girl. The work of the girl who likes the main character hasn't been revealed, but even though she wears simple clothes on her way home from work, she goes to college in a Lolita. Also, blind boys don't take the fact that they are blind as a negative point of view from their words and actions, and they are naturally good at relying on people. My older brother also treats this younger brother as a “normal blind brother,” and he doesn't seem particularly concerned. At the end of this volume, the main character was confronted with the question “were they convenient because they were blind?”, and I read it even though I didn't know what kind of consequences it would have, and I felt like even that was hypocrisy coming from the feeling “being blind = poor and we have to be kind.” So actually, I don't feel like blind boys care because they think so if they think so. Because this kid himself takes advantage of the fact that the main character favors him. It doesn't come together well, but anyway, I thought he was a very good writer at composing stories without making “specials.” This story itself is not a BL comic, and I have the impression that it was drawn as a human drama.

This review contains spoilers. While reading, I was curious about Ogi-kun's hair a little long and his unusual clothes, but I think he liked that kind of look. Speaking of which, I knew early on that I was doing manicures. I was watching the heartwarming deepening exchanges, and I was surprised by the volunteers' remarks in the second half. Does the story progress by interlacing such things? The pattern reminded me of Saemi Yoda.

This review contains spoilers. First-time reader writer. The relationship between Ogi-kun and Tako-kun is a bit difficult. “If it looks like you love it, it will be solved” statement. I wish I could see it... it was tough. After all, isn't Tako-kun more than love but more than friendship? That made me think. Do they live together in volume 2? living together? They became lovers to the extent that they did. I couldn't see the process or reason why Tako-kun fell in love with Ogi-kun that much, so did he really fall in love with him? I was wondering. So personally, I even thought I wanted Kanako to go out with me... But it can't be helped if you fall in love with it. Also, I really understand Ogi-kun's “I want to be interrupted now” statement. Tako-kun seems to end up going with the girl for the last time, and I understand the feeling that she wants to break up with her while her wounds are shallow. There are many things I think about Tako-kun, but Ogi-kun's feelings slowly and painfully came through, and I cried in volume 2. I definitely want Ogi-kun to be happy. I'm going to chase volume 3.
