The Lady Knight and the Beast-Eared Child

Chap 28, The panel w/ the birds on the mom pulled some stings in me.

He's like 5 years old, isn't it normal for mothers to kiss their sons when they're that little?

I'm only in this comment section because I was going to mention how realistic the parental affection is portrayed here. Most of the time you just get a woman in an apron chopping vegetables or wiping tears with a handkerchief at arms length, this is the first manga I've ever read that reminds me of my own childhood.

I don't have the knee-jerk "must be a pedo" response but never have I ever known a parent to kiss their child on the lips. Sure, this could be a cultural thing, but the extra attention the author places on both Noah and Olivia blushing/reacting and how handsy Olivia is--is a bit too straight shota for my tastes. Still a pretty good manga.

They kiss on the nose and ears.
Noah is embarrassed cuz his mom is embarrassing. Also when he looks at her butt he thinks its funny not sexy.
Honestly if you replace the knight with Samus and the kid with Pikachu its the same dynamic.
She finds him cute, he wants to be cool like her.

So mangaka island came up with a new form of pedophilia: child care porn 🤔
Their culture is truly different from rest of the planet.

I am so tired of people who drop series when it gets an "official" release. no one reading here is going to suddenly go out and buy tens of volumes if they even release that many. leaving a series in limbo partially translated is stupid, you're not breaking any less laws if you stop now.

My mother kissed me on the lips when I was a kid. I didn't kiss my kid at that age, but that's because I'm a bit of a germophobe, not because it would have been weird or something. His mother did kiss him, though. I've seen friends do the same with their kids. It generally tapers off as the kid approaches teenage years. There is absolutely nothing sexual about any of this - it's just parent/child affection.

That's in rural Oklahoma, though. Japan? Seems a bit odd.

In some parts of Brazil it is also common for parents to kiss their children in the lips, though its different from a kiss, we call it "bicota", it doesn't have any romantic conotation and its seem as a mean to show affection.

The amount of romance is only equivalent to author “hatch” #464242, meaning don’t let the “shota” tag get your hopes up 😭
