Mimi
Slightly conflicted. Mostly disappointed. I felt this leaned way too far on the comedy side of things, nothing felt grounded in reality so when anything serious did come up it didn’t feel like it was handled well. I think the author wanted this to be a cute story about a scary-looking guy who’s kind and has always liked cute things and a guy who took an interest in him after seeing how misunderstood he was. Which is cute and I was excited about that, but while trying to show how cute they are together along with the comedy of the story, two conflicts got ignored and one conflict got overblown.
The first time Kousaka kissed Kijima it felt rushed and underserved at that part of the story while the second one made me angry because Kijima never really got visibly angry at Kousaka, letting him get away with so much. It was annoying to watch Kijima mostly get angry at himself when he had every right to be angry at Kousaka before chapter four. He was so fixated on this fortune-telling thing that he let Kousaka string him along without talking anything out until later. I’m mad that after the first kiss, they still acted like they were still dancing around each other even though they both knew each other’s feelings by now. Having Kijima finally get legit angry that he fought back at Kousaka because he miss heard him pissed me off. There were two other better reasons to punch this dude and this is what you chose?
It wasn't cute for half this story, it was kind of annoying.
