Synopsis

There are a lot of things that Kouki doesn't have—no hobbies, no friends, no lover, no stable job, and no will to live. So when a random tussle with some kids gets him stabbed, he thinks maybe this is finally his ticket out of this crappy life. But just as he's about to pass out he sees a beautiful "angel"... How is Kouki supposed to cope when less than a month later, he's mysteriously healed, has astronomical bills to pay, and suddenly has the same beautiful angel as his amnesiac roommate?

A short but fulfilling story that, while technically a tragedy, has strong threads of optimism and positivity all the way through, straight until the end.

The story has a fair number of twists, but I don't think it tries to play up the dramatics too much. It also involves a lot of dark and twisted topics, but doesn't have the characters dwell too long on them. Instead, there's this constant theme of 'life sucks, but we'll keep going anyway.' There's explorations on gratitude, on affirmation, and finding happiness. It's just a very sweet story about suicidal ideation and learning how to find the value in life.

One Room Angel is a beautiful, bittersweet story about finding the will to live even when life sucks, and wanting to become a better person for the people that you love.

It's short, but very impactful. Both characters are very well fleshed out and, despite being a one-volume manga, it's easy to care about them. Their dynamics are really touching at times while really fun at some moments too and the story focuses a lot on their bond and how they can help each other but, even though it is a BL, I think it can be enjoyed even by people who typically don't like ...

I liked this story. I did, until I realized it's supposed to be a romance.

So many opportunities were lost. This could've been a cute father-and-son relationship, but it became a weird pedophilic fantasy. Sure, it can be interpreted as platonic but being marketed as a romance and serialized by OnBlue is enough for me. I'm sure this would've been one of my favorites if not for this. And it's not just the labels. There are several unnecessary and weird scenes in this that if removed could've made it so much better and not left room for doubt, even without whatever label you can slap ...
