Therapy Game, Vol. 1 (Yaoi Manga) (Therapy Game Restart)

Product Information

I also love how open Shizuma is about their relationship. I'd like to see Minato meet his parents , especially since he's been without an extended family of his own for so long. But it's nice that Shizuma doesn't even hesitate when introducing Minato to people as his boyfriend, even when it could potentially hurt him at his new job. That steady, supportive, permanent love is just what Minato needs, and it's so nice to experience in story form. Shizuna is calm, intelligent and he lives for his work, so Minato, a person with loose morals wasn't very sympathetic to him. Minato knows this, however, love the bonus scenes we got at the end with Shohei trying to cheer Minato up & giving him one of Shizuma’s shirts in secret 🥺 It's a really interesting story (mostly because of the characters, not really of the storyline) even though it's quite unpopular. We have two fairly different characters. Shizuma had been living a peaceful life with his really likeable girlfriend, until they had broken up. On one morning some days later, Shizuna woke up next to a stranger, Minato, and it seemed they had... let's say "an interesting night together" in case children are reading this, but Shizuna didn't remember anything. They do fall in love (Minato doesn’t want to admit it but he’s fully there too) but there’s a bit misunderstanding and with the help of side characters, they talk things through and hopefully will date each other –officially, at least.

In 2019, Therapy Game ranked at #7 in the Best Comic category of Chil Chil's 10th annual BL Awards. [35]

Minato's personality has changed so much now that he's in love. I'm not used to seeing him so mopey and and listless. I really didn't like it. Of course he'll always be a diva but his diva-ness has been toned down a lot. Sherman, Jennifer (September 8, 2020). "North American Anime, Manga Releases, September 6–12". Anime News Network.

The plot isn't new, Minato wants revenge because Shizuma forgot about the night they spent together. Minato places a bet with his co-workers that he can make (straight?*) Shizuma fall in love with him and plans to break his heart. People who know this kind of story will also know how this turns out. Since this is only volume one, the problem is not solved yet and the cliff-hanger ending was really quite cruel! Nothing could pull me away from this manga even if it wanted to. I love this pair and I love their story and I want to see more and more of them. I want to see them continue to build that relationship with each other. I want to see where they go next. What's up with that director at Shizuma's clinic? I can't wait to find out what her deal is. And why doesn't Shizuma just work at his father's zoo?
