Confermo: Mamita scrive yaoi decisamente superiori alla media.

Se nel primo volume si era parlato di sartoria, qua ho scoperto quali sono i gradi - chiamiamoli così - dei camerieri... Son parole che sento spesso per via del lavoro che faccio, ma non mi ero mai preoccupata di andar a vedere cosa significassero.

Mamita, adesso ti aspetto per la prossima opera!

Re-reading in the physical English license. Still a very satisfying conclusion, with a backstory for Theo that was a lot angstier than I'd remembered. I really liked his mentor, and losing him and then having him badmouthed at work was a rough double blow.

I'm a little bit torn on Ubuki's love for Theo - I think it could've used a bit more development, because some of it felt more like dependency than outright love. The partnership is a dual layer though and that's kind of how Mamita writes romantic dynamics - with one person relying a lot on the other to fill in their gaps. Theo genuinely likes him and is happy to be wanted in that way, though - he'd always wanted to be useful to those he cared about - so it works.

A great conclusion; I'm glad this was a two volume series so things could wrap up well.

Their backstory ended up being so cute. I love that Theo ended up not being pushy at all; he was so careful with consent every step of the way, and didn't come to Ubuki's shop with any expectations. They have such a gentle, supportive relationship, with similar backgrounds that mean they can understand each other in a unique way.

I enjoyed this a lot and hope it gets a physical English license eventually so I can buy the copies and reread.

2.5*
slightly better than the first one for some aspects but the plot with the store is basically done here so not much happening on that front.
Im a little bit disappointed that the job was not put more forward in the series and it was all financial talk & not more about Ubuki learning the things he said he wasn't good at as well.
To me it's also not clear if that's what Theo wants to continue doing or if it's just because he was asked to (the story seems to maybe attempt to say that what he liked was the comfort, warmth of the atmosphere he percieved as a child that made him want to go into restauration so maybe him doing something with the man he loves is actually what he wants to do??).

And I guess yipeee no 🍇, even if the kiss is 😬, but let's be honest the fact that he was planning on doing it but stopped because Ubuki started crying about his job is NOT good. Dude would've done it if it was another situation. He still sucks for that.
Oh and I hate when they don't feel the need to tell the drunk person that nothing happened like thinking they slept together wasn't very obviously actively distressing them. 💀

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 ^^').

The second installment was the perfect follow up to the first manga. The story flowed seamlessly and it felt like I was reading a really long, in depth one shot which I loved. My main issue with one shots is that the pacing can feel off super easily or key micro interactions are written out or are "behind the scenes" but those interactions are so important for building up the characters! Therefore, love this duology and love the characters. Sidenote, my physical copies smell heavenly lol. It definitely enhanced my reading experience.

⭐4.5 (rounded down) - really liked it
Translator: Andrew Hodgson

I really like the relationship between the two characters. As in, I want more of it! And I think that is why I cannot give it 5 stars. Some things (like the back story of Theo) would have more of an impact if more time was spent on it. For a short story it is perfectly serviceable though.

Der Fokus des zweiten Bandes lag mehr auf den Figuren, und leider wurde die Story dadurch ein wenig zu sehr mit Tropes angereichert. Mir hat der geschäftliche Teil im ersten Band da deutlich besser gefallen. Trotzdem aber eine nette Reihe mit sympathischen, etwas älteren Charakteren; vor allem hübsch gezeichnet mit schönen Männern in Anzügen.

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 overall.

But I will say Theo's restaurant career, I want to beat up them folks for him.

Oh, the sex scenes /chef's kiss/ so beautiful and sexy.

This volume was much better than the first one; it gave us more insight into Theo's dreams, his past, and Ibuki's, and it showed how Theo went to help Ibuki as he wished to be 'saved', so sweet. I enjoyed watching their relationship bloom so much!

Suite et fin de cette trop courte série. La romance est plus présente et on a une bonne alchimie entre les personnages, ça marche très bien. Encore une fois, les dessins sont magnifiques ! J’aurais aimé passer plus de temps en compagnie des 2 héros.

Chyba dzieła Mamity jednak nie są dla mnie. Drugi tom trzymał mnie w takiej samej ekscytacji jak poprzedni – czyli w żadnej.

Cóż, przynajmniej chłopaki sobie pociupciali. A garnitury i płaszcze wyglądały naprawdę ładnie.

Ubuki dziedziczy po dziadku zakład krawiecki w prestiżowej dzielnicy Tokio. Stara się jak może, ale niestety, klientów można ze świeczką szukać, a i tak nikogo się nie znajdzie. Kiedy w progu pojawia się Theo i oferuje pomoc w prowadzeniu zakładu, Ubuki nie mógłby być bardziej zdziwiony. Przystaje jednak na propozycję (nie ma w sumie za dużego wyboru;)

Historia dwóch mężczyzn, którzy stanęli na rozdrożu życiowym i zdecydowali się połączyć siły z zamiarem zbudowania stabilnego interesu, ale także historia tworzenia się związku opartego początkowo na wzajemnym wsparciu, a po pewnym czasie także na miłości. Ubuki jest mało pewnym siebie bohaterem i pojawienie się zdecydowanego Theo katalizuje w nim pewne zmiany. Wisienką na torcie są całkiem sensowne porady dotyczące prowadzenia firmy.

Manga jest naprawdę urocza. Kreska przyjemna, bez zbędnych przerysowań, z humorystycznymi akcentami (szczególnie ujął mnie kotek i sąsiad, którzy obserwują bohaterów z boku:D Polecam dorosłym czytelnikom :)

Cute and erotic. I love men in suits! Plus the beauty of sock garters! Adding an additional star because Ubuki is so beautiful.

Ich habe mich durch Band 2 gequält, weil ich einfach das ganze Ausmaß sehen wollte. Die Zeichnungen sind immer noch wirklich schön. Allerdings haben wir in Band 2 eigentlich keinen Hintergrund mehr auf die ursprüngliche Geschichte sondern nur eine Menge Tropes und schlechte Jokes. Ich muss auch gestehen, dass ich im Jahr 2024 nicht mehr bereit bin so eine Darstellung von schwuler Liebe als "Repräsentation" zu sehen. Mir ist bewusst, dass Japan hier ein anderes Standing hat als Deutschland, aber das bedeutet nicht, dass ich so eine stereotypisierte Darstellung gut heißen möchten - vor allem, wenn es bereits Manga gibt, die einen anderen Weg einschreiten.

Zeichnungen: 10/10, Rest leider durchgefallen.
