Maid kara Haha ni Narimashita

[Pokari]

What's with the litany of brusque trollishness in the last few posts? o.o; Or maybe this whole comment section... Is it that a bunch of isekai addicts came here expecting another harem or something?

Sorry guys. At it's core, this is only a few steps removed from being a slow-burn family-cohabitation-romance shoujo (Or rather, a mash-up of that and the romance-with-a-strange-magician line of romances). Slow romance is the order of the day, and I think most of us who enjoy such things are basking in it ~w~

...

In other news, I'd have said this is one of the more valid reasons for having a painfully slow relationship (Forcibly and irrevocably separated from another lover, but knowing—or at least reasonably assuming—that the person you loved is still alive). But the series sort of plays down the tragic aspects of it (aside from letting us know that our protagonist is pretty torn up about it) so it doesn't always feel real; sometimes I think the protagonist comes off as rather kind of pointlessly stubborn as a result. I think it works out for the best, though; frankly, the mood of the series would be kind of squashed if it dwelled on the tragedy side too much.

@previous comments
It’s tagged slice of life for a reason ya kno, and shoujo is shoujo.
If you’re expecting a shonen story with a shoujo MC which is full of yuri undertones and moe, and so sexually charged you want to roll your eyes and wonder if the author saw a real human girl irl, then there’s other series for that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(Altho it’s slightky closer to a josei than an over the top shoujo)

That said the MC is a little bland, as in the characters are not very deep, and neither are their motivations. But there is nothing that is horrible. And at least it’s not a terribly Mary Sue MC.

@Keimichi Please tell me the title of the manga you said sensei

 

[Mephis_to]

Spoiler

I so want to see the Maid/ Lily reach sex and speak about it to her students haha
And then maybe going a bit further by explaining with her body and live action as she says what to do to Leonard haha

What a blunder of my part as I know that this Manga is a Shojo and not a Hentai or even Ecchi.
Anyway it could be refreshing to see her

Spoiler

explain sex and how to conceive babies with a book or whatnot to those two. But for sure is that we know that as a mother, she'll explain to Jill how to defend herself in assault situation be it in the present or for the future.

Oh boy ?

I never gave thought about how damaged I am until I casually picked this to fill time between releases... I couldn't end more than 2 chapters without crying. Damn.

 

[LoliALF]

never thought about this, but the main charas way of thinking kinda opened my eyes

 

[TetraSky]

Well, she's not wrong about "a special kind of love" needed for marriage...

Also, what does she want to help with in regards to her not being able to conceive a child... consulting about their sex life? This better not turn out to be because the man can't put it in the right hole... surely this story isn't that dumb... right?

@TetraSky LMAOOOOOO TOO DEAD ???

 

[Liubei]

At least she still virgin

 

[SirCuddleschmidt]

I really want to give this story a 9.5 rating. I can't find it in myself to call it a 10, it is a very well written but not entirely unique story. It's just very well written imo.

Edit a rant into this:
I refer to how the characters feel like they not only could be, but truely were live flesh and blood people and this merely a fantasy of their biography. I love this story because I get irritated by authors that write characters that, in regards to emotional growth, backslide heavily and regularly as if the repeated emotional trauma of the character is a plot point to be used to keep the reader engaged.

 

[okami]

Is anybody else put of by the fact that the lover she left behind was

Spoiler

her cousin?
incest is wincest! Chapter 9 page 21 if you want to see it yourself.

The story pacing is just weird too. it feels really slow but in story it's a whirlwind.
I mean by chapter 5 she had been there 20 days and they are already like a family. No adjustment, no annoyance about the changed living situation, nothing goes wrong. Love and trust all around with people you know nothing about.

I think the child has the mental strength of a god.

Spoiler

The kid gets tied up and thrown in the basement and a few pages later is sitting on the lap of the person who did it, without any explanation.

It's as if the kid is immune to trauma. She bounced back from everything that has happened to her like a bouncy ball and doesn't show any signs that it affects her.
Maybe it's Stockholm syndrome that keeps the kid there and it does affect her. But well she is only there to act as a plot device so who needs character development for her anyway.

The romance is cute, laid on a bit thick sometimes. but again the back story diminishes it a bit, at this point it's just an excuse to not progress. After 16 years you should be pretty much ready to move on to a new relationship. I can understand that It would be difficult emotionally but time heals, yet here it doesn't. She doubles and triples down on a hopeless case. The mc should learn from the child. One has no trauma after going through what basically is torture, the other has kept her trauma alive and kicking for 1,5 decades when there is literally nothing she can do about it.

so what's the deal with mangadex changing english titles to japanese titles?

 

[grom]

Do you need more coffee with your suggar ?

@okami

The whole cousin thing IS awkward, but to be completely honest we don’t know what extension of a cousin they are. Technically, you can have kids with a 1st cousin (once-removed, meaning the kids of your aunt and uncles) without a large risk of inbreeding. But your children couldn’t marry THEIR 1st cousins since they’d be too closely related.

Could be her cousin was twice-removed (meaning the children of your parents’ cousins) or even thrice-removed. I grew up around my 2nd cousins, and we just considered them regular cousins without thinking about it too much.

This jabbed my heart multiple time.

Chapter 29 is out

autism reverse harem

 

[Solipsist]

I get that the author wanted Leonard to be this troglodyte, basement-dwelling geek whom has never properly interacted with society, but there's a difference between being inexperienced and shy, and being so blunt and ignorant about your behavior that you're ending up with the mental faculties of a toddler. It's genuinely so offputting, it feels like the author tries to play of a child as a romantic partner for the maid.
I know this is a shoujo manga, but "having a strong lead and pairing her with a needy, 'fluffy' guy" was taken to a really strange place...

 

[Shikyoneko]

Just remember that this manga originated from Japan and the author is also japanese. Marrying cousins is normal over there as much as it's unacceptable somewhere else. I was about to say America but we also have backwoods hicks marrying their cousins and siblings so...yeah..
