This made me laugh out loud, cry, smile, and go through a full range of emotions. I wasn't expecting much because the plot is so predictable, but I was pleasantly pleased. The story's comic drawings/aspects contribute significantly to making it a fun read. However, there are also the emotions and actual concerns of youth. After being fully immersed in the characters, I can't wait to keep reading to see where they finish up.Definitely recommend.

Aoki getting in the trashbag is mood. I love my chaotic bi boy!
I just finished the show and it was the sweetest, cutest thing ever. ;__;

It felt like so much happened in this volume!! I'm so excited for the future of the series!! We resolve the initial mix up, but it's also on top of another mix up! The boys like each other, but Ida is super dense. I don't want to say too much more, but I am loving this series. Such a cute Shojo!!!

Slow plot that focuses on the internal self-pressure that rules the teenage mind as each of the characters worries how they are perceived in their social environment. A sweet slow build that must surely pay-off in a future volume.

I am perhaps reading too much into this, but it's wonderful that in My Love Mix-Up! we have a manga starring characters who can be interpreted as bisexual and demisexual, two orientations that don't always get the visibility that they deserve. After a volume of agonizing over it, Aoki now seems fully accepting of the fact that he likes Ida, and for his part Ida is coming to terms with the idea that getting to know Aoki as a person is allowing him to fall for the other boy, suggesting that he's the sort of person doesn't become attracted to someone without knowing them first. There's also some hint that Ida felt lacking somehow in never having had a crush before now, which is a topic I hope to see explored at least a little more.
Although this is still funny, it's overall a less silly volume than its predecessor. There's a lot more internal anguishing going on, but that brings with it the revelation that Aida isn't the person Aoki is afraid he is. He doesn't want to admit to his best friend that he's got a crush on another boy because he thinks Aida will react badly, and at first it looks like he does. But when Hashimoto sets the record straight (while still doing her best not to give away Aoki's secrets), Aida snaps to. As he says to Aoki when he's apologizing, if his initial reaction (a homophobic one) was "normal," "Then normal is wrong."
My Love Mix-Up is shaping up to be more than just the goofy story it seemed in its first volume. It's maintaining its light touch while still covering some serious topics, and the only thing keeping it from being a five for me is the ugly gorilla faces, which aren't needed to lighten the mood - the writing is more than capable of that on its own.

DRC provided by VIZ Media via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Representation: queer demiromantic Japanese protagonist, queer demiromantic Japanese secondary character, Japanese secondary and tertiary characters.
Content Warning: implied homophobia, violence, internalised homophobia,
My Love Mix-Up! Volume 2 by Wataru Hinekure and illustrations by Aruko is a contemporary manga about Aoki’s and Ida’s blossoming relationship, which sprang from a hilarious mix-up with a borrowed eraser and a misread identity.
I love how Aoki’s and Ida’s story is slowly, but steadily evolving and I love the fact that there are demiromantic characters as the main character and his love interest! The story is so beautiful and if you know me, you know I am all-in for slow-burn romances and when they are queer and feature character in the asexual spectrum, I think they are even better.
I also want to shine a light on the supporting cast though. Both Hashimoto and Aida are such great friends, always to lend a hand, sometimes even too literally, ahah!
This manga is absolutely, a hundred percent better because of Aruko’s artstyle. The panels are all so beautiful and I cannot stop thinking about its beauty.
The only negative aspect I can think of is that I only have another volume before my long wait begins!

"The normal is wrong."
To say this book is wholesome is an understatement. It's also really nuanced on the topic of being an LGBTQ+ teen in a society that really frowns upon it and makes homophobic jokes. It's not perfect, but there are a lot of redeeming elements in the story as characters understand Aoki's affection and crush on Ida.
Aoki is 100% a shojo main character. I love his interactions with Ida so much because he's just a doofus. Both of them are very different in how they internalize and deal with their crush, and it's nice to see what it's like on both sides of the relationship. Hashimoto is still the most supportive character ever, and we love to see it, and we love to see Aida's growth in this too.

Ughhh this series is SO freaking cute! 🥺
Aoki’s journey is so funny to watch as he tries to reconcile with the fact that he does actually like Ida in time for him to accept that everything from the last volume was all a misunderstanding. This volume digs more into the story between Hashimoto and Aida, which was interesting as well. I’m glad the author let Hashimoto be a real character because a lot of female characters in BL are either villains or just set dressing.
The budding relationship between Ida and Aoki is so sweet and I can’t wait for the next part! I’m excited to finish the live action series as well!

How did the series just get so much better? The simple and natural hilarity of both the author and artist was amazing, I don't usually laugh out loud multiple times when reading but this! This is incredible!
However, in no way are the characters shallow, they are THE MOST BELOVED AND PRECIOUS!

Maaaan, das war wieder genauso schön, komisch und soghaft wie Band 1. Ich hatte es einfach so schnell durch :/
Ich liebe die alle, aber auch ich habe mein Herz ein bisschen an diesen begriffsstutzigen, aber gutherzigen Ida verloren. Freue mich sehr, dass die Reihe noch lange weitergeht :)

This manga series is the embodiment of teenage emotional chaos but it’s fun! Ida is so dense, it’s both endearing and alarming.
March 5, 2022
this is honestly one of my new favourite shojo series! loved volume 1, absolutely adored this volume too. the illustrations are stunning (and sometimes hilarious), the story is funny and the characters are quirky. it’s just so refreshing and a different take on romance. only downfall is that it is so new and therefore have to wait MONTHS for the next volumes. could probably read online but prefer to torture myself 🥲

Este me gustó incluso más que el primero, me siguen pareciendo adorable y como van manejando las situaciones Y EL TREMENDO CRUSH DEL PROTAGONISTA.
Además resolvieron el mal entendido así que puedo ser feliz por esa parte.
También tienen más participación algunos personajes que pensé se quedarían como extras en el primero, pero acá se ve más de ellos.

Ay no, amo mucho el dibujo de este manga, queda perfecto con el sentimiento de enamorase por primera vez.
Aoki es una lindura andante que no sabe ni cómo reaccionar ante su primer amor al igual que Ida. Juntos son un combo dinámico muy tierno.

The misunderstandings from the first volume are resolved, but not the feelings they have brought about are not. A sweet and gentle romance about finding love in an unexpected way.
I've another volume on hand for tomorrow.
