I need Volume 6 so badlyyyyy huhu. I love this so much! I want to see Hashi and Akkun's relationship progress! I'm freaking dying with the scenes in Valentine's Day too! Gosh, I love Hashi so much, I so wish Akkun just make up his mind already for her! I want to them be happy so baaaaad!
And jelly Ida is freaking hilarious! I need more! They are all nice people, and I want to stay with them forever!!!! Even if Ida's clueness sometimes makes me want to punch him in the face (lovingly!) I adore him so muuuuch!

Now that they’re dating, Aoki and Ida might be together forever, but not if Aoki’s grades have anything to say about it. Then it’s off to cram school, but it’s about to provide a whole other lesson. Elsewhere, Hashimoto and Akkun navigate Valentine’s Day about as well as can be expected.
The first hundred or so pages of this manga are really good. Really, really good. From the hilarious mix-up where Aoki’s teacher thinks he wants to be a baker (his teacher has him mistaken with his older sister) to his new cram school instructor giving him relationship advice, it’s silly fun.
Which really makes it hit hard when his new tutor spots Aoki and Ida together and turns out to be a massive homophobe. And he winds up being a melange of all the worst types, from assuming Aoki is selling his body to also possessing the egomaniacal hubris that naturally Aoki must want him just that badly. He goes from friendly big brother to jerk believably fast.
Aoki tries to brush it all off, but it’s clear this really has him in a funk and while the solution might wind up being a little afterschool special, it’s not like the point is a bad one. People are people, not stereotypes. It’s cool seeing all of Aoki’s friends in his corner as well (bloodthirsty Hashimoto is amazing).
Either way, it was a nice touch to see a same sex relationship that touched on this, plus the question of just how out you want to be, or can be, depending on where you live. This volume really lets Ida be a little more emotive, which plays out in some solid ways, and deepens the growing relationship between our leads.
The back part of the volume is also quite good, but it has an over-reliance on tropes that makes it positively pedestrian after such an effective opening storyline. Akkun and Hashimoto tend to be interesting, but it also wouldn’t be wrong calling them the weaker coupling of the two featured here.
Case in point, this Valentine’s Day bit, which once more treads the boards of Hashimoto not being sure of herself and Akkun being too indirect about everything. It doesn’t help that Hashimoto gets thrown by something that has a very predictable resolution, which I called the second I saw the conflict. It’s very basic shojo storytelling.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice and all, but we’ve definitely been here before. This leads into the last section with Aoki getting a part-time job and, if you were expecting that his new mentor is tsundere as heck and crushing on him like crazy (and a female), you’d be bang on.
This story has yet to resolve and I’m hoping it’ll go in a direction that I’m not expecting because it’s pretty mundane right now. The most interesting part has been watching Ida get jealous, which is a clever new dynamic, even as Aoki could clearly care less about this girl except as a work senpai.
Either way, it’s still a good series. I never dive right into this when a new volume hits my reading list, but it tends to be a solid read and this time is no different, especially the opening chapters.
4 stars - I’m half tempted to go 4.5 based on how strong that first section is, but the second half wouldn’t get more than a 3 out of me, so we’ll settle for the split difference once more. Overall, a worthwhile read.

I adore these characters! The couples are just sooooo gooooooood. And I loved the topics of acceptance and respect that came up in this volume--that dug deep.
Saionji though? I got my eye on you, missy.

Returning to My Love Mix-Up! after a year was such a treat. Aoki and Ida's relationship is just so precious as they navigate their feelings and the complexities of being two guys.
The manga also touches on how others perceive them, and it was genuinely upsetting to see Akkun's reaction to Aoki's sexuality.
I really appreciated seeing Aoki's thoughtful journey. And let's not forget the humor! The comedic timing and those hilarious faces are still on point. Definitely recommend picking up this volume, somehow this might be the best one yet even though we're 5 volumes in!

PUHLEASE MIO AND AKKUN!!!!!!
Mio is such a sweetheart I love that so much for her.
Aida is someone that will do anything for the person that he likes but is the type that is hard to admits his feelings. I felt sorry for the both of them especially Mio but also liked that they both realized about their feelings on their own. This manga has my heart i tell you.

Amongst all their usual relationship awkwardness, the main couple is forced to deal with homophobia for the first time.
To drag out the story and spice things up a bit, the author also resorts to introducing a new romantic rival. But it's a tsundere character -- my weakness -- so I'm too happy to be annoyed by the trope.

CUTE!
I love Aoki and Ida's growing relationship so so much! Plot? Not much going on, but I'm just so smitten by the characters that I am honestly so in love with just reading about their daily shenanigans.
I had an exhausting day but this volume picked me right back up.

First of all, I'm so happy for Hashimoto! Hard work really pays off. I'm looking forward to her and Aida's progress. Second, that Okano really pissed me off, man. I hate people like that. Well, he said sorry and he realized that people can have different preferences, that's already enough. There's no point in dwelling upon something when you know that that person learned their lesson. But Aoki is better than me because if that was me, I would've killed myself in front of Okano out of spite. Anyway, for third, I love that they were all ready to come to the rescue for Aoki when they heard the story. Their friendship is just so beautiful. And lastly, Saionji is a tsundere, and she's really pretty, I like her.

Jetzt bin ich endlich an dem Punkt angekommen, an dem ich diese Reihe einfach nur liebe. Großartige Figuren, die toll und erwachsen kommunizieren. Zum Dahinschmelzen.

Another fun volume!
Seeing Aoki and Ida's relationship face new challenges is so fucking sweet!
I laughed at a particularly gag near the middle 💀

Aoki and Ida’s relationship begins to make some progress forward in this volume. Aoki experiences homophobic prejudice, and In an unrelated turn of events, Ida is suddenly insecure and jealous. Will Aoki and Ida be okay?

Aoki ha bajado sus calificaciones en la escuela, por lo cual debe asistir a clases particulares en una academia. Su tutor no solo le ayuda con sus estudios, sino que también le cuenta de los romances que tuvo en su época de estudiante. Debido a esas conversaciones, Aoki piensa que debe dar más pasos en su relación con Ida, por ejemplo, tomarse de la mano.
Todo iba más o menos bien hasta que el tutor se da cuenta accidentalmente que Ida y Aoki son pareja.
En la segunda parte es el día de San Valentín y Hashimoto quiere regalarle algo a Aida🌸
Comentarios:
- Maldito Okano🔪 Ida debió dejarte tirado por ahí.
- Nunca pensé que me iba a emocionar tanto por que dos personajes se tomaran de la mano 😂 es la magia de Confuso Primer Amor.
- Me gustan Hashimoto y Aida, pero este último a veces me desespera.
- Ida celoso (?) 🤭
- Ya quiero saber qué pasará con la subtrama del trabajo de Aoki.
