I am so disgusted by this. There I was happy to finally find a manga with an asexual character but turns out it's a convenient setup so fujoshis can have the cake and eat it too - basically fujoshis can self-insert into the MC and have a gay husband whom they can also ship with his crush and feel good about it since they are also supporting a gay person -_-

I was wondering if I should read this, but your descriptions seems problematic. I can already see where this kind of story will go sadly. Will see if I try it or not.
Btw, if you are interested in great portrayal of all kinds of ppl, asexuals included, go try Shimanami Tasogare.

I've read the first two volumes and I don't really agree with their description of the story. I think the story has a lot of heart and explores how it is to be asexual for this person (no experience is the same of course). It is a story of two people living together for convenience, but also building a non-sexual relationship together. She might be a fujoshi, but that is not what made her want to be in this relationship at all. I think you should give it a shot, it is only three volumes long (sad to see it end so soon).

Lol, how immature you are.
Like hating it from the start.
Pathetic.
I read it till where the translation has came out i.e., ch 11.5 of vol. 2, and it was just fantastic.
Specially insight of their personalities and their problems, which is denied by the society.
And, Mangaka has explained it so beautifully and in detailed, that anyone can understand that.

My advice to you:
Re-read it without making prepared thoughts before even catching upto it.

I hate fujoshis and I hate BL because BL often romanticizes rape and abuse while fujoshis hail these things as "passionate love" or even "representation", the MC was very clear about having explicit BL works that's more than enough reason for me to hate the manga. Go with your woke agenda somewhere else, you can call me queerphobic or whatever if that makes you happy but I won't back down from this manga being terrible that just wants to pander to fujoshis.

Lol.
If she reads that, what does it matter?
She used that as her escape to the reality and safe point.
I am here for the story, and I am loving it.

It matters to me because I find someone drooling over rape disgusting and cannot enjoy the story because of it. She fantasizes about sexualizing gay men and is married to one, that's a fujoshi's pipe dream, I'm sure the author was aiming for it to increase her sales.

thats just…. not what the manga is about at all? she personally explains how she prefers boys love cuz it usually doesnt have a lot of female characters so she doesnt have to see people like her (women) get into relationships. i dislike yaoi for similar reasons as you (im literally gay lol) but their relationship is very sweet & respectful

@Clarian this comment is old but i just read the first volume and as an asexual person this manga has a great depiction of it C: and i dont think the female MC sexualises the main guy's crush. their friendship is quite lovely.
Also big agree on Shimanami Tasogare having great ace rep
