    Another great haul, the energy was especially on-point! 💯both of your all's T-shirts, and that small Rose of Versailles haul was so cute, really cool to get more merch of series you enjoy!
    Really interesting to hear your thoughts on the unhauled series as well. For Tsubaki-chou, the age-gap is definitely one of the detriments of the series. It would be much better if the fl was aged up. If MW ever does want to read a novel, My Dark Vanessa addresses all of the criticisms she had for Tsubaki-chou and is a thorough examination of how these types of relationships are detrimental and the harm they can cause to young people (though it's not exactly a book for unwinding and relaxing... 😓). I also think the thoughts on what makes slice-of-life types manga captivating an interesting discussion. I've never read House Husband myself, but there are some popular slice-of-life series that I've had to drop just feel so tedious to read. It's a delicate balance for sure.
    Side note, I'm looking forward to MW's review of Fushigi Yûgi. I've never gotten into the series, but I've heard nothing but praise for it for years, so I think her take will be a unique and different take on the series!
    Props to that Blue Card throw at the end -- thing of beauty 😆

    I had to read Monstress Book 1 for a university class lol - I bought the 2nd but have yet to read it
    The Yona of the Dawn shirt is lovely!! I definitely want to own some Yona merch like that 👍
    Tsubaki-Chou absolutely has a power dynamic… so does her other series Daytime Shooting Star (I don’t know if you read that one) but that one is handled very well. Honestly, I enjoy Tsubaki-Chou; the whole forbidden relationship thing is kinda a fun read to me (since it’s fiction) and I think it works for me because the main guy is very oblivious to love, and understanding it in Tsubaki-Chou. Just very kind, but it would def be a concerning power dynamic !

    I think one thing to keep in mind about Tsubaki-chou and similar age-gap shojo, is the intended audience. Girls in that age range have a tendency to get little crushes on teachers/ older guys/ celebrities/ authority figures and this is a fun/safe way for those readers to indulge in a bit of fantasy fulfillment. So that's why aging it up wouldn't work for this series. But there are plenty of other series that show different aspects of age gap attractions too, as you know already. Really enjoyed hearing about series you've read and dropped. Hits different than hearing opinions on series you haven't read 😆 Another fun watch!

    47:50 Sometimes that’s fine, the original To Love-Ru is like that, it doesn’t really have a linear storyline, so you could take chapters in vol 1 and put them into vol 14 and it would make no difference. But it still works, but I much prefer To Love-Ru Darkness that has an actual linear storyline.

    "Pushing through the gay," for Innocent is such a small part of this. No one is upset about that, it's just seemingly trifling for such a great manga. I mean, not everything can be a masterwork like Prison School, but give it a chance.

    I will post a picture of my Danmei collection. I will say this The Husky and His White Cat Shizun is nowhere near clean cut because it is a relationship between teacher and student but at the beginning of the first volume Mo Ran is the leader of the cultivation world but has ****** (I will let you figure out what this word is and it is not something nice) his teacher has died and he is about to die due to poisoning himself. Heaven Official’s Blessing is decent (though I am struggling to finish the series I lost interest after finishing volume four of the novel I do enjoy the anime). I feel that Guardian is a good series it is also about to finish with three volumes in August. Thousand Autumns is another decent one though I have not read it yet I watched the anime for it I plan to binge the series once the fifth volume comes out in July. Every series mentioned above are all cultivation series except for thousand autumns which I think is based more so around marital arts than cultivation I could be wrong it’s been a year since I watched the anime. Mo Dao Zu Shi/Grandmaster of Demonic Cultuvation has both its novel (which is complete at five volumes rated 17+) and it manhua (ongoing with five volumes out currently and volume six releasing next month rated 15+). It also has a live action drama series called The Untamed on Netflix (there is no romance shown in the drama series). Great haul and video as well.

    In my opinion househusband is written exactly like a ''we kiss at the end, school romcom'' and all we get to see is goofing and gaffing in the classroom, except of the classroom its the neighbourhood and except of kissing at the end, they have a baby.
    I feel like the author feels pressure if he/she answers all those question, interest for the series might drop, and get his/her manga canceled, he is saving the character development for the ending.

    9:51 Yea there’s absolutely no way I could read a BL manga, I just couldn’t do it. I did find it interesting that BL has a huge female readership, I thought it would be gay men.
    When I found out I was just so surprised, I think that these are same people that are shippers putting all the men into relationships with each other.

    • @meettheweebfamily
      @meettheweebfamily  9 місяців тому +1

      I was also stunned when I found out that BL is most popular with heterosexual women. A hetero woman once told me that the appeal of BL is seeing men in relationships without the cultural expectations of hyper masculine men.
      It's as good of an explanation as any I guess.
