Nakatani and Kusunoki wanted to make the characters' emotions understandable even to readers who may not be able to relate to them. [25] [32] [29] This was particularly important for the story's female characters to be enjoyable to Dengeki Daioh's shōnen demographic. [25] They tried to not shy away from emotionally complex characters, believing that if they were depicted successfully, it would lead to a more fulfilling story. [25] [29] [32] Kusunoki said that this was a challenge, but felt that Nakatani was capable of fulfilling it.

Following the release of the novels, Nakatani said that Iruma's writing had influenced how she wrote Sayaka, particularly her confession to Touko in the 37th chapter. [10] [34] She said that she had not discarded her understanding of the character due to Iruma's influence, but rather that his characterization aligned with her own view. [34] Although it was planned early that Sayaka would eventually confess and be rejected, her character grew to be more detailed as the series went on, and she was ultimately much more involved in the narrative than Nakatani had initially planned. [23] In writing the conclusion of her subplot, Nakatani wanted to avoid implying that her rejection meant she had "failed", saying that Touko could have never accepted her confession even if she had confessed earlier in the story. [23] [34] She rewrote the dialogue of Sayaka's confession scene several times. [34] As I said toward the start of this review, I gave the Bloom into You manga a 10/10. I tried to think of any reason I could come up with to give it a lower score. And in the end, there was nothing. It deserves this rating. Nothing stands out, although the style is decent and pleasant to watch. The character design is well done.This is another reason why I wanted to read the manga from chapter 1. I wanted to see the depiction of Touko’s initial relationship with Yuu in this medium. And what I found was that their early relationship is the same. Darcy, Diane (2022-08-01).

The story is based on students, a senpai (superior) and a kouhai (student inferior to senpai). Chapters go a little bit fast, a little bit slow. Despite being a complicated genre to deal with (Senpai-Kouhai Relationship), several people stop reading, for the simple reason of being an SKR. I really liked the story, it took me out of boredom and held my attention as a whole.I wouldn’t say that the anime looks bad. But it’s also not great. And, while not something I usually compliment, the Bloom into You manga has some nice paneling. I haven’t read many manga — 6 manga compared to my 530 completed anime. But, I can still recognize nice paneling when I see it. a b c d Friedman, Erica (January 6, 2016). "Yuri Manga: Yagate Kimi ni Naru (やがて君になる )". Okazu. Archived from the original on April 15, 2023 .

As president, Touko plans to revive the student council play, which has not been performed in seven years. Yuu is against the idea, and chooses not to suggest her novelist friend Koyomi Kanou when the other members ask who could write it. Sayaka tells Yuu to solicit Koyomi's involvement, and to look into the student council president of seven years ago. Yuu subsequently learns that Touko's older sister Mio was the student council president at that time, and had been producing a play, but was killed in a traffic accident before its premiere. Yuu realizes that Touko is emulating her sister and wants to produce the play in her place. She tries to convince Touko that this is unnecessary, but Touko coldly refuses.

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. 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. a b 電撃オンライン.

The Bloom into You anime has a glaring problem. This problem is such a big deal that even the most diehard fans of the series have to admit it. And those who don’t admit it are lying to themselves. A girl wants to become her deceased sister but falls in love. Another desperately seeks affection. It's not bad, but not great either. The main issue I have about the story is the overall theme "just stay as you are, never change or I will stop loving you" - and this is very angering.

Look, sex is a normal part of romantic relationships. Does every romantic relationship need it? No. But for the majority, it will eventually come with the territory. Depicting that is a good thing. There’s nothing wrong with it. Yuu describes herself as “naughty” when she fantasizes about Touko, but that’s not bad. In discussing her approach to the yuri genre, Nakatani expressed that while she liked romance stories, she was disappointed with narratives that paint a relationship as necessary to complete oneself emotionally, as it made her feel as if "something was wrong with me." [30] Nakatani felt that same-sex romances often avoided this dichotomy, and that as she struggled to write a convincing heterosexual romance, she was more drawn towards creating manga about same-sex couples. While Nakatani had also drawn boys' love manga previously, she ultimately said that yuri was more interesting to her, as she wanted to draw cute girls. [30] In one interview, she said that yuri was difficult to define, but that "once the reader thinks it is yuri, then at that moment it becomes yuri." [25] In a conversation with Riddle Story of Devil creators Yun Kōga and Sunao Minakata, she concurred with Kōga's statement that yuri is about "girls getting involved with other girls," adding the qualification that it is "feelings between girls." [31] She also cited the anime adaptation of Sound! Euphonium as an influence, saying it showed "everything I want to do in yuri." [25] Early development [ edit ] Nio Nakatani's early character designs for Touko and Yuu Art : Like many other manga out there the winning card is on the art. Yagate Kimi ni Naru is no different. Its an eye candy for those who enjoy good art. The artist (Nakatani) does the job well and doesn't cut corners. The art style is very manga-like meaning its very common but that doesn't mean it isn't good. Its neat and comfortable for the eyes. I personally really enjoy the art style but feel like there is a slight hint of 'chibi-ness' in the art which really adds to the character. I rate 9/10 I am not gonna talk about characters because their personalities and growth are the main focus of the manga. Just go in blind.Bloom Into You, was a manga that is really surprising. Let's say the story is simple, but in a well-written form, this is the minimum that a manga should have. But we compare it to a shoujo-ai manga style, as it is extremely different. What I mean is that Bloom Into You is a good manga, with a simple and surprising idea. Now, I’ll be honest, my review of the anime wasn’t received well by certain members of the community. If you want to see what I said about the anime, the review is still there for you to read. I’m not going to change my opinion on a series because some people don’t agree with it. Overall : All in all this manga has been an amazing experience. One very big downside is the slow updates. Yes, this manga is still on-going. Updates are very slow but there is still progress in the story. I really wished i had found it after it has been completed just so i can binge read this.
