i dont get the marriage at young age... so you get more and more disillusioned with said life partner as years go by?I've said these before, and I'll say them again:
1) I've always found depictions of rugged Tomboys in Manga to be funny, because in Appalachia, they were known for having long hair, no makeup, very baggy clothes (sometimes even long sleeves), and ballcaps. Usually short hair and light clothing on a women meant "feminist", which is definitely not what manga goes for lol. Idk if my region of America is weird, or Japan is weird. (Probably both)
2) I see what you're doing, Abe. Your movement lives on! Though tbh, I would always recommend marrying young. I wish I had. Meh, 24 or 25 is not horrible by modern American standards, though I'd have preferred to have gotten engaged sooner, married by 23. Kids asap. I was never the most fit or masculine guy (by modern standards) until a few years ago. Whatever you Japanese are doing wrong, sometimes you just gotta go American and YOLO it for love.
3) Speaking of YOLOing it for love, why does that never seem to happen here? Why is this trope always "arranged for family money"? Granted I'm not opposed to arranged marriage, but I can guarentee much of the audience doesn't come from a family able to make that happen lol. Maybe it's supposed to emphasize the filial piety? idk
Eh. Depends on the level of commitment. If not, marriage at 18 or even 16 is more than doable. I know of ancestors who spent nearly 4/5ths of their entitire lives happily wed. My grandparents are about to celebrate being married for 60 years (married at 21). That's normal in Catholic families.i dont get the marriage at young age... so you get more and more disillusioned with said life partner as years go by?
I mean, hell, if your parents are loaded to give you a money free life style, or at the very least a good launching platform, sure. Make babies like rabbits. Otherwise, you just make it harder on yourself, your partner and that child or children if you really screw up.
I kinda get you... But I also know how miserable people are IRL. So I'm sure if they did that some randoms would want a "piece of their happiness" for themselves, thus they would start meddling and possibly damaging their relationship.This is very cutesy and wholesome and I enjoyed the hell outta it.
BUT, goddamn, do I absolutely despise the retarded ass “We need to hide our relationship/we can’t be friends at school” trope with a burning hatred.
Its like “bro you’re fuckin married, what’s more important? Your standing or your wife?????”
