adorable

I don’t normally comment but I feel like I need to since there are mostly negative comments below. I really liked this manga, from the start it had my literally laughing out loud. Naru (main character) is adorable and so oblivious to the world, in an extremely endearing way. Watching him fall in love with someone, without him even realizing it until almost too late, was beautiful. And Mamoru is so sweet as a friend, and lover. It’s a very fluffy manga that isn’t meant to be taken too seriously. The way narcissism is portrayed is less of a psychological condition than a mythological one, very strongly resembling the Greek myth (which is how the story opens). Although some people would be upset by how narcissism/split personality disorder are portrayed, it does ultimately lead to self-acceptance which I found to be quite heart warming. As long as you don’t expect a realistic or accurate psychological storyline, you should enjoy it! Plus I’m a huge fan of the artwork <3

The plot was confusing and sort of aimless, development and progression make little to no sense, and it seems that the author does not respect the distinctions between various psychological conditions.

I wouldn't say this is a really fluffy work due to the matters presented that are actually more serious than they seem. I do applaud the author for attempting to combine such a topic into a BL work with the intention of making light of it; though I wouldn't comment on whether she had succeeded or not. The manga is not to be taken seriously I suppose, but any work touching on a sensitive subject will always be controversial more or less. Imo, should not come across as something funny and silly. Narcissism is one thing, but that is a totally different matter.

Still, at least I can say that I did enjoy the artwork, especially the chibis and funny moments. The romance is not too much to my taste, however, because the development alone isn't what I'm usually comfortable with, and cliches when done wrong is absolutely not my cup of tea.

I actually disagree with the comment below. Personally, I loved the sex scenes in this! For one thing, the art is gorgeous, so that's definitely one reason why I liked all the H, but also because it's important for the story. It isn't like some BL where one moment the characters are talking, then bam, they're fucking. The very first H in this is at the beginning of chapter 3 (I think?) and admittedly I was a bit surprised when I saw it, as it did seem like quite a jump forward from the previous chapters, but that particular scene is needed, as it basically gets the ball rolling for Naru. He needed to realise his feelings for Mamoru, and in my opinion, was much better than throwing in any love rivals or anything of the sort, to make Naru see Mamoru in that way. Also, considering that the only way Naru can snap out of his narcissistic moments is right from the first chapter, I think it's pretty obvious this was going to develop into more.

Anyway, the comedy in this is light and refreshing, and I like the take on narcissism. Both characters are definitely likeable, and thankfully neither of them fall in love at first sight, making their feelings for each other more believable. Personally, this type of manga is the kind I like the most; funny with a slightly unique plot, no unnecessary angst or annoying characters, and two pretty guys doing plenty of kissing. 10/10.

At first I thought: "This is so awesome, cute and nice manga. I love it."....but then more chapters were released ...and it showed it isn't.
I have no idea what went through author's head....but the result is rather bad.
I have to lower the rating because of (for me) really unnecessary sex.... It feels like forcefully added and it really doesn't suite whole story. (Well I'm not saying that putting sex into this story was necessarily bad idea...but the way author did it was really bad idea >_< ....) Like the author just for some reason made it to complicated. And now I'm not only talking about the sex-issue. Also making up "another plot" turned it into overall overcomplicated. It's such a pity.
Huge disappointment! Because first 3 chapters were really great and promising. And I hoped for so much more.
Only because these first chapters I'm rating it 4,8. (else it would be even lower)

This is so cute and stupid. I shouldn't like it as much as I do but.. well, I do. Naru is adorable and so oblivious and Mamoru is such a caring person with a complicated mind. I would totally recommend this, as long as you don't take the narcissism too seriously. It's a manga after all.
