BLURB:
An ex-playboy. A robot geek. Can their love last when the whole world finds out?
Robot fanboy Sato has spent too much time alone hiding the love of his life. But when Sato comes out to his parents, it doesn’t end well. He no longer wants to conceal their relationship, but he doubts his boyfriend is ready.
Aoi might spend all day moaning as an erotic voice actor, but he doubts his legion of fangirls will approve if he comes out. With his career on the line, Aoi feels like Sato has pushed him to the breaking point.
As Sato opens up to more people about his sexuality, can they find a compromise that will make them both happy, or will it be too much for Aoi?
REVIEW:
This has been a good little series. It’s been good to see how Sato and Aoi have grown over the years. Some fears still remain, but things are changing and for the better.
Sato and Aoi have lived together for a bit and Sato has come out to his parents. Things didn’t go so well and Aoi feels horrible that Sato has given up his family for him. After losing his own family to their hatred, he doesn’t want Sato to go through that. But Sato is tired of hiding and it’s time to move on. Aoi just can’t do it. Terrified of what people will think or do after what his parents did, he doesn’t know how to let go. And Sato in his own little way, is pushing more and more for them to be more open. Aoi just needs to face his fears or possibly lose Sato forever.
It has been a long battle for these two. More and more countries are accepting being gay and gay relationships, but it’s still hard and some people are still not accepting. And for Aoi, it’s been even harder. Yes, Sato didn’t have the best coming out experience with his parents either, but he’s old enough to make up his own mind and such. Aoi was kicked out as a teen and the hatred from his parents was heartbreaking. So his fears are somewhat justified. But I can’t blame Sato for wanting to move on either. Being in a relationship, you don’t want to hide your love. You want to show people and be proud of who and what you are and who you are with. It’s a rough dance. But with all the fears Aoi has, I love how Sato calms him. No matter how hurt or upset he may get at times, he knows Aoi is it for him. And he will do all he can to make him happy. And Aoi has to learn to either be selfish and live in fear, or finally trust and move on.
