Heart no Kakurega

E' un manga davvero carinissimo... peccato che non è stato più tradotto :/

Gracias Kevin fansub

Hm. The first couple was cute enough, but the second pair was pretty uncomfortable. Momo never seems to get any agency over his own life. Jin is constantly pressuring him, even when they get together, and after years of stalker-level clinginess, one-sided physical affection, and actual literal rape attempts, the entire foundation of their relationship seems to be defined by Momo giving up. It feels gross, especially when none of the other characters respect his opinion about the supposed relationship. Jin seems "impressively sincere", so of course they cooperate with him and help undermine Momo's boundaries at every occasion. Everyone just assumes they know what Momo's feeling, even if that means directly contradicting what he himself says, so they think it's fine to effectively ignore him completely.

It's not the worst thing ever, by any means, I just couldn't really go along with the love comedy atmosphere and endless sympathy for Jin when it's this unearned. For all the talk about Jin having this horribly controlling home life, where one person's word is law, everyone else just automatically following along with his will, and being unable to get away and obtain even a little bit of independence without those efforts being sabotaged by people acting for their own personal gain, the person who we actually see living like that the most is Momo. However much Jin may hate his grandfather, he's sure turned out exactly like him, and it's really frustrating that the manga never seems to notice this or comment on it at all.

let's pretend the last few weeks never happened?

i don't think that plan will work...

Chapter 10 is basically, "help, my kouhai noticed me...!!"

 

The voice actors seem awesome.

Talking about dropping a bombshell o.o dat cliffhanger T.T

OMG, it's updated, thank you ^^

Alright, thanks a bunch, Maruchi =)

Is this really ongoing?

 

I'm feeling pretty satisfied with the end of chapter 6.5 and I wouldn't mind it stopping there (rather than dragging on and on with jealousy and stuff, and another guy, etc...), but I'm wondering and I don't want to drop it in the middle since it's cute and all.

 

Thanks in advance for your answer ^^

 

According to the page for the series on Baka Updates (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=81430), the series is still ongoing in it's country of origin (i.e. Japan) and they're usually accurate about those things. Also, at the end of the last proper chapter it said "to be continued" and they usually don't say that type of thing unless there will be more (they usually disregard extras when making those statements or will clarify that there will be extras in the future, but no chapters)

 

Also, I wouldn't be too worried about dumb drama. One of the things I love about Natsume Isaku is that her series usually don't involve "outside threats" to the relationships. I'm anticipating a side story with Momo/Jin story in the next volume and some cute random stuff about them dating, maybe a little bit of drama with the uncle finding out about their relationship or something, but nothing over the top.

Have you seen the magazine cover? The volume cover is definitely sweet no doubt but the magazine cover is so beautiful *_* (Or maybe it's just me ^^") It's not present in the uploaded chapters because they are the volume scans. Take a look ..
