i really love single parent stories and seeing one with GL had me super excited—until i found out it was a oneshot. the original short story (10 pages, posted on pixiv) was waaaaaaay too short. i really needed more from these two!!
by itself i would've rated it as 6-7 bc it was truly too short to decently review it. so i went ahead and bought the continued story on lilyka and still need a continuation (ಥ‿ಥ)
that said, the full 34pg comic does bump up its rating to an 8. though i thought tanaka (the mom) was a little plain/shallowly characterized in comparison, i definitely love shiraishi (the teacher). i also wish we got more from tanaka's daughter considering the entire story began bc shiriashi had to speak to tanaka about her daughter in the first place.
the art is nothing remarkable—just really simple and easy to follow, though the style is reminiscent of mid-00s manga/doujinshi, which i found super cute. the story itself is very surface level bc it's still short at less than 35 pages total, but an enjoyable read nonetheless.
it's a shame that, according to the mangaka's poll, teacher x parent stories aren't popular, bc i certainly would love to read more and rate this review up higher.
