What is it with people sleeping with someone that is drunk?! CONSENT I BEG OF YOU

[Luisa CactusElle · Rating 2 out of 5]

Tre stelle sono anche troppe per questa trama inconsistente.
Mi ha disturbato fin dall'inizio, in cui i due protagonisti dormono insieme con uno dei due ubriaco marcio (anche se va letta tutta la storia per saperne di più) e mi ha disturbato quella specie di instalove che ha colpito l'altro personaggio. In più, dopo aver dormito insieme, si instaura un rapporto lavorativo per me incomprensibile e questa parte di trama non mi ha dato soddisfazione. Leggendo un manga ambientato in un negozio di sartoria, mi aspettavo scene su scene di tessuti pregiati, abiti particolari: desideravo una maggior immersione nell'affascinante mondo della sartoria. Invece, si parla dei problemi economici del negozio ma soprattutto di questa piatta relazione tra i due, la cui costruzione non ho affatto sentito. Ah, c'è anche un odioso e superfluo triangolo amoroso con un ex, per fortuna molto breve.
Il finale è stato per me sciapo quanto il resto del libro. Spero che altre opere dell'autore mi diano di più.

WHY DID YOU CUT HIS HAIR???

[Elena Rodríguez · Rating 2 out of 5]

¿Sinceramente? No me gustó. Sentí que la historia detrás de la tienda estaba bonita, pero en ningún momento sentí química por los personajes. Se me hizo un poco pesada. Una pena.

nooo why did he cut his hair boooooo

Ein etwas erwachsenerer Boys Love-Titel mit ungewöhnlichem Schwerpunkt - zumindest habe ich noch nie eine Story gelesen, die in einer Schneiderei spielt. Ich mag die etwas älteren Charaktere und die damit zusammenhängende Reife der Figuren, die schon so einige Erfahrungen im Leben gemacht haben. Auch neben dem Boys Love-Aspekt macht dieses Remodelling eines in die Jahre gekommenen Unternehmens einfach Spaß. Der Funke ist bei mir noch nicht ganz übergesprungen, weil die Figuren dann doch recht blass bleiben, aber vielleicht kommt das ja noch in Band 2.

The story of Ginmokusei no Shitateya/Ginmokusei:The Tailor Shop follows Ubuki Takabayashi a 35 years old ex-salary man who is struggling to keep his late grandfather's tailor shop a float that he has inherited.
The shop is located in a very pricey and trending area called Ginza.
Shops are said to close down regularly because they cannot afford to keep their shops a float and retain their customers.
After trying every method he knew to keep the shop a float he is reunited with a man named Theo Nakamura an 30 years old ex-maître d'hôtel - who met Ubuki during one of his drunken nights.
This man claims he could improve the shop's sales and help save Ubuki's shop from closing down.
The process of both Theo and Ubuki methods of advertising their rebrand of Ubuki's grandfather's tailor shop, learning more about running a business on their own as well as starting new careers in their 30s was enjoyable to read and I wish more was shown on screen.
The relationship between them was sweet but not much has happened between them until the end of volume 2 because the story was mainly focused on the shop and of course Ubuki's lost memories of Theo that said I enjoyed watching their interactions.
The artwork is beautiful.
The suits are elegant,classy and sophisticated and the colors are vibrant.
I wish Mamita released a collection of suits both Ubuki and Theo wore along with never before seen suits Ubuki mentioned ordering for his shop.
I liked most of the supporting characters but I didn't care for Ubuki's cheating ex-boyfriend or the man who harassed and harmed Theo at his last job.
It's interesting to see that both Theo and Ubuki are older than me which is refreshing to see because characters in manga are usually in their teens or very early 20s.
Let's hope this trend of older and of age characters in MxM manga continues.

Highkey wasn't prepared for the romp this two-parter was?! :D
Volume 2 has all the steam, whilst this is more than tame. Unconventional setting, a Yuri on Ice-esque meet cute and ensuing shenanigas. We love people passionate about their cause, we love people so smitten they drop everything for their love and the MC is giving me leaner Iwaizumi Hajime SO MUCH, I just can't :D

CNs: this one is handled as a spoiler by the plot, but: MC is led to believe he drunkenly had sex with the love interest, but in volume two i turns out that actually wasn't the case. So luckily no actual non-con, but why the love interest said it in the first place is kinda icky

Mamita è la stessa autrice de Il mio vicino metallaro, che mi era piaciuto un sacco.

E anche questa seconda opera è decisamente superiore alla media.

Intanto si svolge in un negozio di sartoria e offre uno schizzo di come funziona. In secondo luogo, i due personaggi sono alla pari e non c'è il solito sfigato che subisce tutto il possibile. E i disegni sono bellini.

Odio il cofanetto, però. Ho fatto una fatica a tirar fuori il volume senze rovinare l'intera confezione.

Un BL entre un noi desesperat que ha heretat la modisteria del seu avi i és incapaç de fer que el negoci funcioni i un misteriós home de negocis que apareix un dia per la botiga disposat a ser el seu soci. De mica en mica descobrim les intencions ocultes del ric empresari i com es van conèixer. Força centrat en la part financera, amb un desenvolupament de parella bastant irregular perquè a estones gairebé no hi havia química entre els personatges i l'amor de l'empresari semblava totalment desmesurat, però final feliç (amb malentès resolt de manera favorable, visca el consentiment ^^').

[Larissa · Rating 4 out of 5]

I thought while reading this manga, there's a bittersweet undertone to the story that I really enjoy. What can I say, depressed main characters make for a more compelling story and Ibuki was definitely going through it. I loved this character. Theo was just a tiny bit 2 dimensional, but he was fleshed out enough that I could believe his intentions. And the whole haberdashery setting was so well-written!

[Marc · Rating 5 out of 5]

J’adore les romances sur fond d’artisanat ou de commerce à sauver, du coup j’attendais beaucoup de ce manga. Aucune déception, c’est très mignon, parfois drôle (j’adore le chat du voisin 😆) et surtout les dessins sont trop beaux ! ✨
La romance n’est pas développée dans cette première partie, mais ce n’est pas gênant.

[Francis Dominic · Rating 3 out of 5]

You know, solid start to a manga. Imagine starting a business with a stranger that turns out to be someone you hooked up with. And next thing you know he’s fixing up your store and YOU. And the only payment he asks for as kisses when they’re due at the end of the month.. That’s it. An extreme slow burn but the men are so handsome!

[Regalia Lenzi · Rating 3 out of 5]

Początek nawet ciekawy, póki jakiś facet nie wciska ci się na postadę pracownika na siłę. Znaczy, Ubuki jest taki jakiś łatwowierny, że nie drązy tematu i dalej pozawala sobą sterować, ku chwale... Tfu, znaczy się by zakład ocalić, oczywiście, to nie tak, że chłopa mu się chce, nienienie. Przeciętnie jest, nawet obrazki są takie, no patrzę, ale zachwycona nie jestem.

[Mari · Rating 4 out of 5]

This one grew on me. The ml is a little annoying. Definitely needed a second volume.

Cw of dubious consent (spoiler the mc is lead to believe something sexual happened, but that wasn't the case...which is kinda a downer)

[Ash Law · Rating 5 out of 5]

The wait for the print release was well worth it. This is my second work that I've read by Mamita and my second 5 star read from them. Their art style is beautiful and the story progressed nicely. I am eagerly awaiting the next printed volume.

[Cassandra · Rating 4 out of 5]

So we think they slept together but they didn't when he was drunk The art is top tier and I like the heart around the shop and his grandpa. But this was not my favorite story by this author. 3.75 over I think the s
