This one and TBATE were my world before, I still vividly remember the days when I had to use the Google Translate to read them due to my bad English. It was so hard to read and understand the words as my native language in Google Translate was not developed properly to handle such long sentences, it couldn't even differentiate between a name and a simple word. For example, in Tbate, characters often used Art as an shortcut of Arthur, and GG Translate literally just translated the name Art into my language's definition. Btw, it's time to return to my origin
does this have an anime adaptation? I think I've added something similar to that summary on my watchlist last time.. hmm. It's also a fairly new one, there's only like one episode left or so.
If you enjoy prince-and-pauper type romances, this manga is definitely for you. It's a tale brimming with drama, centered around the classic forbidden relationship between a person from a lower class and an heir of a wealthy family, blended with some truly sweet romance and a touch of comedy. "Saa Koi ni Ochitamae" makes for a great read if you're just starting to explore the Yaoi genre.
This manga follows the usual "prince-and-pauper" narrative. What distinguishes it from others is its characters. Unlike most BL protagonists, Noboru isn't annoyingly naive or overly clingy. He doesn't fall head-over-heels instantly, nor does he back down or stay silent when upset, making him a remarkable protagonist. The love interest, Naoya, starts as your typical arrogant rich kid. Meeting Noboru reveals his compassionate and caring side, as the two find themselves deeply in love. The story focuses on the challenges they face while coming out, maintaining their relationship amidst family disapproval, and dealing with someone intent on ruining Naoya's reputation...
The artwork is quite good, reminiscent of shoujo manga styles. Noboru embodies the classic doe-eyed uke, though his indignant, strong-willed personality contrasts sharply with his innocent looks. Naoya fits perfectly the handsome, rich-boy seme image. Minor characters like Noboru's younger brothers, who often provide comedic relief, are drawn adorably.
The romantic scenes are beautifully illustrated. There are minor issues with facial proportions occasionally, but nothing significant enough to distract from the story. The mangaka skillfully captures the tenderness of these moments. The sex scenes aren't overly explicit; the intimate parts are usually faded out. This is ideal if you're new to the BL genre.
Conclusion -
"Saa Koi ni Ochitamae" is a charming and brief read. It features plenty of dramatic moments, yet they resolve swiftly into happy endings. You might find yourself laughing at Noboru's siblings' antics or fervently cheering for the main couple to overcome their misunderstandings (there are many such instances). If you're in the mood for a fluffy, somewhat short romance, give "Saa Koi ni Ochitamae" a try.
The series was absolutely fantastic!! The storyline was brilliant, the artwork was stunning, and the characters were amazing!! I rate it WAY OVER 9000!!!! It ranks up there with the two mangas that were also masterpieces (Junjou Romantica and Sekaiichi Hatsukoi [apologies for my terrible spelling]). But anyway, this was outstanding!! INCREDIBLY HILARIOUS—I was laughing so hard I was in tears. I highly recommend this to everyone!
