@AstroMancer5G I bumped into your post because I follow the #shoujo tag. Bloom Into You is a romance but AFAIK it is not a shōjo, it was serialized in a shōnen manga magazine. The fact that it was though speaks to how the sensibilities of even predominantly male audiences are changing.

2 episodes out of 13 into #BloomIntoYou.

So many #feels. I almost couldn't handle the first #episode.

The #characters and overall #art #style are so #cute and #beautiful. I love the #soft pastel colors.

Touko and Yuu are both such deep and heartfelt characters, and their dynamic is taking a lot of #emotional #twists. I'm anxious to see how it develops (even though I'm cheering for them to get together).

I don't watch enough #romance.

The Fukuyadou Family Shop (Fukuyadou Honpo) manga by Yuchi Yayomi

Family drama with coming-of-age elements that was SO worth reading for the characters. Not a single perfect one, all made mistakes, behaved irrationally, illogically, impulsively. One minute, you want to shake them and knock some sense into their heads, another you feel sorry for them or admire their choices. Seemingly a typical family drama, but then you get some sort of dysfunctional family that still somehow holds together instead. The eldest sister Hina was the most intriguing to follow, starting from her choice of a life partner and ending with her personality (not often we're allowed to see almost textbook passive agressive behaviour, which was quite a surprise). Add some Kyoto traditions, quirky romance, 90s shoujo vibe to the mix and you get a nice story to follow. The epilogue threw me off a bit, because even though I understand how things may turn out that way, repeating patterns was kind of frustrating to see. I know there's a sequel, but I'm OK with the story ending the way it did.

Some shameless self-promotion for my #otomegame #visualnovel blog here.

https://otome-lycoris.com

I want to implement content warning lists for audience with triggers, considering it’s a very niche hobby and lists like those aren’t really readily accessible. (Fortunately I do enjoy darker content so I use this shitty super power to help others, I guess.)

Apart from that I’ll also be doing reviews of mainly Japanese Otome titles I’ve played and I’m trying to focus on those that have been picked up for localisation into english, so people can get a feeling for the games before making a decision to buy.

If that sounds like something you enjoy, please pay me a visit. My husband also worked hard on some polling and rating plugins considering the Wordpress landscape is a lot of subscriptions … if you like the plug-ins stay tuned because my dear 3D husband plans on making them public in the future. ♥️
