I like volume 2 even more than volume 1! We get a deeper look into the family personalities and discover a second secret ally. I really enjoyed the horror game chapter 😂 The mom also had a lot of moments of reflection and growth as she noticed happenings in the world around her and realized ways they might impact her son. #LGBTQIA #Manga #Motherhood

Not showing the covers cause even the covers are messed up. They're just larger versions on what's on the spine. It feels weird to rate this series highly but it is a really good version of what it's meant to be. One is a stalker and the other is a serial killer who takes his own stalker prisoner. Just about every trigger imaginable shows up in here and the complete 8 vols took me a while to get through just cause of content. Not for everyone.

Didn't love either of these. Seaside Stranger drags for me and I don't love that both of the men are in their 20s but look like they're in their mid teens in the drawings. Tamon's B-Side was cute for several volumes but it's getting a little TOO dramatic and repetitive. Which is fine, it's just not for me.

Quite a lot learned in this volume! I‘m looking forward to seeing where else this story goes. #Manga #LGBTQIA

Aresh, gah, Seiichirou is a grown man, you can't do this. I really wish this was seen as a bit more problematic by the story.

I'm still really curious how things are going to turn out, and I'm ordering the light novels, but I'm gonna have to be clear in my full-length reviews that there is definitely ick -- questionable consent (sex to save Seiichirou's life) and Aresh constraining Seiichirou's freedom for his own good.

shanaqui I enjoy them a lot, but I can't give it a pick at this point without feeling like I'm wholeheartedly endorsing something that's actually quite ick.

The sex is kind of dubious on both sides (Aresh has some feeling that he's the only one who can save Seiichirou, both times they actually have penetrative sex), but then becomes a little coerced... along with just about every other interaction they have. 1/2

shanaqui It may be that we're supposed to see that Seiichirou actually likes it, and that he could put a stop to it if he really wanted to (in fact I'm certain he could given his other allies), but that really doesn't come through enough explicitly on-page. 2/2 5mo

Never sure if I'm finding the manga or light novel here on Litsy, there don't seem to be separate entries for all of them even if I search further. So this is for the manga!

The plot thickens in this volume. Sometimes it seems to be just about Aresh and Seiichirou, but I think Aresh is living in a romance novel and Seiichirou in an SF/F novel, in terms of how they view the relative importance of events.

Aresh still uncomfortably controlling. 😕

Ah yes, Aresh, such frivolity, so convincing.

I'm enjoying the story, but I do wish Aresh would communicate a bit more with Seiichirou. It's not like they don't talk at all, but I think Aresh should say “I like you“ and “I want to spend time with you“... and maybe be a BIT less controlling, even if it is to save his life.

Clare-Dragonfly This is so menacing 😅 5mo
shanaqui @Clare-Dragonfly He's super cross with Seiichirou at the time. 😆 Seiichirou is trying to work himself to death and isn't being careful of his health, and Aresh is trying to help him. Plus he has a heck of a case of resting bitch face in most panels. 😉 5mo

This manga is off to a good start when a boy finds himself tricked into delivering food to the village's creepy protector and discovers purpose in supporting him. I'm really enjoying the character development, relationship building, and the slow introduction we are getting to their world. Looking forward to picking up volume 2. #Manga #LGBTQIA
