Never go on Reddit, never go on Reddit, as the song goes.

The story is hilariously edgy, but it lost me with the daughter becoming a hentai protagonist. Up until that point, it kinda made sense, but then it went too over the top. Should have ended at the mom dying after a few years of happiness.

All the shit about drug abuse and exual violence, yeah. It also happens in real life. Cherish your friends.

I enjoyed reading the reddit story WAAAAY more than this manga. I'm out. This shit is too ridiculous.

Either this turns out to be what Sakuchu thought, or else, no...

First, the story is really good but im theorizing:
that the person may not be the actor but instead someone who looks like the actor. The lookalike of the actor is used to being mistaken for the actor. Then comes across a girl that allegedly does not know the actor. So the lookalike actor wants to hang out with that person because of it. In later chapters the girl may point out inconsistencies and realize that she may have misunderstood and that’s when they talk hopefully make up and then marry.
but it’s more wishful thinking cause I’m scared that the reddit story will come true!

Second, the reddit post was too sad for shoujo-filled and dramaphobic brain. I’ll need to reread Komi-San and other cute manga later

Wanted to reread that reddit story. Sadly it was cut out. But here I gotcha
I'm really curious how this all will be resolved

Isn't it easy to guess how this resolves?

Sooner or later she fucks up once too many times, he realises she knows he is a famous actor, there will be arguing in the rain and a separation. But he realises he loves her too much and they get back together. Ever apologetic about lying, she drops everything for him to accommodate his career and a few blissful years go by. Over the years she realises what a pain in the ass dating a famous actor is and grows bitter and detached. He has an affair that she reads about in the tabloids and she tries to kill herself. He finds her and gets her to the hospital in time. After a lot of talking they both agree to try harder for the sake of the relationship. They marry and she becomes pregnant. She gets post birth depression. He decides to stop acting for a while to care for her and their daughter full time. To cope with the stress of caring for them he starts to rely on drugs through one of his seedier acting buddies. His buddy lures him into the underground party scene to blow off some steam where sexy young girls and drugs drain his wealth in no time. They are forced to relocate somewhere dirt cheap. Going cold turkey and working in a factory to make ends meet turn him into a violent husband. A social worker visiting nearby relatives notices bruising on both the mother and her daughter. He starts trying to get them out of that marriage and violent home. She realises this could be her only ticket out and takes her daughter with her to move in with the social worker, living far away. Trapped in the shame of being poor and the betrayal of his wife and daughter he reaches out to an old colleague, an older successful actress that was always somewhere between a mother and an older sister to him. With her help he cleans up his act, and after a few roles here and there she gets him a job as drama teacher. He settles in for a quiet, simple life. Years later, as his students leave the classroom one of them tells him he dropped his phone. When the student gives it back to him, he finds himself staring in a face that is the spitting image of his ex-wife, and mother of his child. A tearful reunion between father and daughter take place. Daughter then pulls all kinds of shenanigans to get her father and mother back together. Her social worker step dad turned out to be even more nasty, so a scarred, broken shell of his former wife, doing everything in her power to keep her daughter out of harms way, meets up with him. Divorce and remarriage follows. Father, mother and daughter are reunited. However, the failed suicide attempt, post birth depression, and domestic violence have taken a serious toll on mothers health, resulting in her health steadily declining. Her death after a few happy years together sparks conflict between father and daughter. His abuse was part of his wife's death after all. Daughter breaks contact and finds solace in none other than the arms of seedy actor buddy, who has always remained in contact with the family. Old, sad and lonely, dad finds himself on the cheap end of compensated dating in the weekends more often and often as the years go by, with girls covered in tattoos, piercings and everything else they can find to hide their needle tracks. Among these girls is where he finds his estranged daughter, scantily clad, pierced, tattooed and too coked up to formulate a coherent sentence. He tries to rescue her but is easily overpowered by her pimp, his old actor buddy. Too coked up to realise what is going on the daughter watches her dad being shot and left in an alley to die before she is dragged back into her work/ bedroom.

Isn't this how all these stories go?
