Synopsis

When his father remarries, Yuuta Asamura winds up sharing a roof with a brand-new stepsister, who is also the hottest girl in his grade! But Yuuta and his new sister, Saki Ayase, have no delusions—they both carry trauma from their parents' difficult divorces, and they agree to keep a respectful distance. As it turns out, however, the two have a lot in common, and slowly, cautiously, they grow closer. But is the emotion blooming between them simple admiration, familial love, or something more?

Preliminary (73/? eps)
A breath of fresh air, along with such a beautiful wholesome story. Gimai Seikatsu takes a truly realistic and relatable approach to the situations presented within the story.

Preliminary (15/? eps)
Art : 10/10
Hiten masterclass art as always, i really love all of the female character designs in this series especially Ayase Saki design.

Overall : 8/10
If you enjoy a good art with many strong female characters and have no ...

Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (81/? eps)
The setting and the premise is good. The step-sister angle provides some natural dramatic tension. The translation is also good. The romance is slow burn (not really a positive or negative for that). Where it is weak is in the tone and voicing of the story and in the believability of the characters.

Too often, it feels like the author is just using the characters to convey his LN/YA-level deep thoughts, rather than telling a story. Ironically, the characters themselves acknowledge the same thing. The most recent translated chapter (Vol 11, Ch. 7) gives a good example: ...
