This review contains spoilers. I’m sooooo obsessed with Liam. He’s intelligent, possessive, overwhelmingly passionate, and diligent! I love how outspoken he is too! Damnit, he’s interesting and tender! I love that he was previously married, and I love how he melts for Leticia! I mean, Leticia is inspiring with how much she adores him, I need to take some of her advice and praise my own crush as much as she does. I just wish this series never ended. They seem smitten with each other, and they have fantastic chemistry. I’d like to see their chemistry tested further… some games yk? I’m obsessed and satisfied with my purchase. :))) long live the outspoken possessive and generous lover man! Did I forget to mention he and Leticia are fine as hell??? God I love his scruff and his drooping eyes. I love Leticia’s breasts and her gentle facial features. It’s such a soothing visual to see her be so confident in her decision to marry Liam. Refreshing, isn’t a sufficient word to describe how I feel.

This review contains spoilers. It’s a shame this whole relationship hinges on what Masho’s actions are, but Amatsuka does have more agency than I’m giving her credit for. It’s a weird series. The play is very sweet and lovely though. I just wish they had more conversations about what each other wants. Temporary partners sounds like a label that would bother Masho, yet he’s the one who offered it? I guess this story is subverting my expectations. I expected Masho to have brought up his adoration of Amatsuka by now. I also wish Amatsuka would get the chance to verbally choose Masho rather than the story feel like she can’t control her compulsions.

This review contains spoilers. I bought this series because I wanted to finish it, but it feels like a waste of money because of how simple the story is. I believe in paying artists for their work, but the story is like 1 million others. An unloved girl proving to be more special than anybody else, a man who is obsessed with her while still being a victim of the patriarchy, therefore, being scummy and gross, a vindication story, and a tale of two sisters, whose love for each other is pure and beautiful. I loved the little kisses that happened in the story. And I think our heroine is very relatable. If you’re up for some cliché fun I recommend this.

This review contains spoilers. He seems to be a horrible person, seems like he drugged her alcohol, we know he forcefully had sex with her. He seems too stubborn, and he’s not actually that nice. Regardless, the art is fantastic, the female lead is happy, so if she’s happy, I’m happy. I wish he treated her better. I also wish they had more fun sex. I feel like I got inspired based off the scene where he doesn’t move. I’m curious how that feels. I imagine it’s really not that exciting, but the artist pitched it as an incredible experience, and I kinda buy it lmao. Anyway, I wouldn’t recommend young girls reading this and thinking this is how relationships work. This series feels like a terrible influence. I just don’t care for me personally. I know I wouldn’t want a man treating me this way.

This review contains spoilers. I was enjoying this because of the golden retriever boy, but in ch 4 he switches up?! Sad about it. Honestly, disappointed that the golden retriever vibes were kinda a lie. I also don’t like how insecure the uke is

This review contains spoilers. I think the art is stunning, and I appreciate a confident female lead, but I don’t think this story is progressing in a way I’ll eventually enjoy. I find the male lead too difficult to justify their romantic relationship. He’s probably autistic, but he’s also too difficult to have a conversation with. I dislike men like that. When it comes to the promotional pages I saw on instagram that led me here, I thought they were anticlimactic when I read them irl. I wanted MORE PASSION, MORE ENERGY! I want the male lead to be more passionate. Him purchasing duvets out of gratitude doesn’t satisfy my desire.

Most importantly, I think there are too many side plots! For example, there was a segment in chapter 5 where they introduced a woman being forced to do something by a scary gang… it just came outta nowhere and I don’t want to pivot yet! There’s limited space in each chapter and I’d like it to be focused on the couple as much as possible. Anyway, I don’t think I’ll be purchasing more chapters.

This review contains spoilers. I have a million opinions, but this series reminds me of my friend group even though we all have sex. I love koyanagi and I need to find my own koyanagi. MANGAPLAZA! Translate up to chapter 67 please!! I need it!!!!!!

This review contains spoilers. I love a gender swap, and I was having so much fun, but ch 3 broke the illusion of fun for me. As a woman, I hated how Alto was kinda fine after. It broke my heart, but I am enjoying Lloyd. He’s a class act so far
