They can’t keep putting me through this where they clearly want to live together and spend all the time they can together but are unable to because they live separately. My agony must be put to an end 🥺 In August 2019, Viz Media licensed the series for North American distribution in English under their SuBLime imprint.

Despite this predictable plot I liked how Shizuma and Minato get to know each other and see their bond grow. Plus points for Shizuma calling out his friend for being homophobic towards Minato and saying he doesn't want people around him who don't respect others.and Shizuma haven’t had many conversations or seen each other for a few weeks & Minato is struggling with feeling lonely. He is still so supportive of Shizuma & his dream but he is having a hard time

im also aware theres a sequel (therapy game restart), but not all chapters are out and i read comments and it seemed like there was more drama.. again.. and its quite angsty? i cant imagine them hurting each other again ahh really dont want that,,i really just wish for them to be happy. but yea so i wont read it for now until all chapters released but just know that this couple is not perfect, they go through a lot to get to where they are but at the end of the day theyre happy and adorable.

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. minato(uke): "growing old with me will be difficult, you know. if you have an affair, i might kill and eat you." feels the strain that Shizuma starting a new job as a vet can put on their relationship because of all the work he’s had to doTherapy Game ( Japanese: セラピーゲーム, Hepburn: Serapī Gēmu) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Meguru Hinohara. Therapy Game is centered on Minato Mito and Shizuma Ikushima, two characters that were previously introduced as secondary and minor characters in Secret XXX, Hinohara's debut work from 2016. It was serialized in the monthly yaoi manga magazine Dear+ from November 14, 2017, to October 12, 2018. Following Therapy Game's end, a sequel titled Therapy Game: Restart is serialized beginning on October 12, 2019.

Meguru Hinohara first published XXX Allergy as her debut short story in the February 2016 issue of Dear+ released on January 14, 2016, [4] which focused on the relationship between Shohei Ikushima, a university student allergic to rabbits, and Itsuki Mito, the owner of a rabbit shop. The story was then expanded into a series titled Secret XXX running from the November to December 2016 issues, [5] [6] followed by a two-chapter story arc titled Relation XXX from the March to April 2017 issues. [7] [8] The chapters were later released as one bound volume titled Secret XXX by Shinshokan under the Dear+ Comics imprint. [9] I love this manga’s art style and of course I kinda saw myself in Minato’s personality, so it’s almost embarrassing to say that I was high heels in love with Shizuma the moment he gave him that sincere smile. 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? 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.Dear+ May 2019 issue].

[35] I was surprised to learn that everything that's been happening in their relationship has been taking place simultaneously to the events in Secret XXX. I knew that some parts of their story overlapped but I just assumed that Itsuki and Shohei were already living together by the time the events of this manga started. I guess not. This volume did have quite a bit of angst as well! Minato and Shizuma are spending less time together because Shizuma is now working full time as a vet, and it puts a strain in their relationship. Minato continues to struggle with feelings of jealousy (despite rationally knowing Shizuma wouldn’t cheat), and he’s also dealing with the fact that he misses Shizuma a shitton. Which is incredibly valid because if Shizuma were my boyfriend I would also miss him all the time 😩
