This is one of the dumbest things I ever read and it made me go through the entire range of emotions available to man. Keigo going "hmm, I think my roommate might be gay 🤔" and acting disgusted when Rio shows him BL manga...only to end up pushing him down like one page later. OK, so stupid it's funny. But the second chapter has...explicit, violent rape?! as an excuse for a comforting scene, which then ends with a joke and a sort-of confession? Absolute whiplash. Then it goes back to screaming and rushed humor, followed up with...a pretty decent chapter about the landlord. There's the
...
obligatory Misunderstanding Chapter, which fizzles out into an ending.
This manga doesn't have a plot. Things happen, everyone screams at some point, there are some sex scenes and couples forming, and at the end you get the impression that it wouldn't have mattered if this story ran for one volume or five. There's no point to it, just a collection of moments. Like a kid smacking dolls together while making up a story in their head. The art's closer to the "bad" end of the spectrum than the "good" one, so don't read it for that, either. Should you read it? I honestly have no idea whom I'd recommend this to.
What made me rate this a 4 instead of a 3 is the fact that the mangaka refrained from giving Kyouichirou a romantic subplot, though there were some faux hints about him and his guardian. Actually, that's pretty amazing, considering that this manga is about as subtle as a bowling ball thrown through a brick wall. Still, the bar is in Hell.
