Bloom into You Vol. 1 (Bloom into You (Manga))

Product Information

There is a certain thing I do when I want to be sure I'm judging shoujo-ai or shounen-ai fairly - I think about wheter I would rate it the same if the story was about a heterosexual couple. And by that I mean examining whether the character depth and relationship developement is interesting by itself or whether those are replaced by just being gay and the romance itself is shallow. In other words, it's removing fetishizing of yuri or yaoi from the lenses of judgement - "Is it good because they are the same sex, or is it good because they are actually interesting characters?"

Most of the volumes is padded with annoying "I love you but I don't love you and you love me but you also can't love me" bullshitting. I knew how this was going to end, you knew it, we all knew it and yet you still have to drag through 7 volumes to get to the expected ending. To be fair, the last volume is actually nice. If the filler between the introduction and the finale was removed with more content added after the finale this would have been much better. But there just isn't anything really interesting happening there. Nothing really caught my attention as the story progressed. Nothing when I said to myself "now this is where it gets good". Up until the end I still struggle to understand the overwhelmingly positive reception of this manga, as it doesn't do much outside from what the average shoujo-ai manga does. Actually, the scenario of the theatre play within the story sounded significantly more interesting than the story itself. Just do that as a story instead, please?a b Kraiser, Vrai (October 5, 2018).

Retrieved 22 February 2018.The novel is a little too fast, sometimes I think the author could have given more space to the protagonists (or characters). It is one of the clichés I mentioned, they talk, date, fight one day and the next they are talking in peace. It bothers me, even if other people think otherwise, because like this: how do you talk, date, fight and talk again normally? Does not make sense. This cliché can bother me, because I am a little demanding on his part, but I am sure that a viewer will hardly notice this factor. Friedman, Erica (February 27, 2018).

Bloom into You is 50 chapters long (45 chapters and 5 “bonus” chapters spread throughout). The anime concludes at the end of chapter 24. And it doesn’t have an original ending, either. It ends in the middle of the story. Prior to creating Bloom Into You, Nakatani self-published various doujinshi works which featured girl-girl pairings of Touhou characters. Although she had not intended these works to be of the yuri genre, they were received as such by readers. This led her to be interested in producing a romance story featuring an unambiguous love between girls. A Dengeki Daioh editor approached Nakatani at a doujinshi convention, proposing that she draw a yuri series for the magazine, an offer which she accepted. In creating the anime's character designs, Hiroaki Gōda described evoking Nakatani's art as a significant challenge. [19] Kato advised him to "avoid a cookie-cutter look". [19] As he was not well-versed in "modern styles of art", he spent several months polishing his versions of the characters, but felt they still fell short of the detail seen in Nakatani's art. When drawing his cuts of the animation, he did not consult his own character design sheets, instead always referred to Nakatani's original drawings. [19] Gōda felt that while drawing Yuu was "straightforward", Touko's expressions were more challenging due to her being "two-faced". He commented that the scenes "when they are thinking something, but don't let that reflect on their face" were particularly difficult to draw as it was necessary to convey the desired emotion without using their expressions to plainly depict it. [19] Sayaka was considered difficult as well, as Gōda felt he would often "fail to draw her with the proper air of royalty". [19] However, he noted Sayaka's expressions in two specific scenes, when she confronts Yuu in the sixth episode, and when she dismisses her ex-girlfriend in the eighth episode, as being "really fun".

Oh, and I have to say that the situation in which they have sex for the first time is perfect. The scenario of it happening when Touko’s parents are out is realistic. And the feelings of anticipation and nervousness that both Touko and Yuu have are spot-on. Conclusion The spinoff novels, which focused on Sayaka's character as a central protagonist, were written by Hitoma Iruma, whom Nakatani had previously collaborated with on his earlier novel Shoujo Mousouchuu. [32] Although she was initially apprehensive about someone else writing her characters, when it was decided that Iruma would be the writer, she agreed. [20] [34] Nakatani provided Iruma with details about her planned ending for the series. Among these details, Nakatani wrote dialogue for a conversation where Yuu and Touko learn that Sayaka has a girlfriend, which would ultimately be included in the final chapter of the manga. [10] Iruma chose to begin the novel with Sayaka in elementary school, as he did not feel confident that her middle school experience would be enough to support a full novel, and thus imagined a history for her based on the few details given about her past in the manga. [34] He said that as Nakatani was the original creator, he felt that his role in the novels' creation was "the one who contributed the text."
