It's good. The okaasan (Saki) is smoking hot and the kid (Jun) isn't insufferable either. It's all too common for manga and anime of this type to have shotas that are either overly bold or just fucking stupid. Jun isn't like that, and his desire for unconditional love is something that most people can comprehend and appreciate. Besides Saki and Jun, the only other character with a relevant role in the story is Riko (Jun's childhood friend) and she's fine; Riko obviously likes Jun, but with Saki pandering the boy, she's relegated to being the pathetic side character that attempts to bring the MC back ... to her side but it's clear that will never work ("mommy issues" trumps rational).

The father dips pretty early on and doesn't have much of a role in the story as of Ch. 5; it's a little funny how that happens and leaves room for interesting interactions between Saki and Jun from Ch. 2 and onwards. Saki is the perfect motherly oneesan/okaasan archetype and is clearly still interested in Jun even after the time they were separated from each other. All in all, very good "oneeshota" content.

Yeah,

So this about half a step from a doujin after chapter 4. They may as well stop pretending and just add the Milf/Big Breast/Incest tags on the cover of each chapter. It very much reminds me of Okaeri Papa or Chi no Wadachi and the artstyle had me thinking of it as well. Essentially the story revolves around a young mommas boy whose never had a mom (died or something i forgot). So he did some mom hunting through, unconventional means lets say, and is suprised when the woman he meets actually end up being his new mom through remarriage. And will you get this, ... the fucking dad leaves for the infamous "business trip" and now he's home alone with this women who has that glimmer of something weird that you can't put your finger on.

That description is not copy pasted from a ChatGPT on popular hentai mom/son concepts, it's what actually happens across rhe start of this manga. You can also tell the author is doing one of two things: red herrings or forshadowing. I say this because about 10 times a chapter you'll see those dark hollow eyes that typically follow a horrific scene, but it's included in everyday conversation that elicits no red flags. The new mom without a doubt it a bit wierd with the whole "we're mom and son so we NEED to do this like other mom and sons", but she hasn't fully pulled that trigger just yet. I don't know why i'm going so in debt because there's not much else to read into here.

The MC and his dad are unlikable, the childhood friend might be a yandere but i'm not sure yet, the new mom is 60% shady 40% tits, and the dullness of interactions are what seperate this story from good suspense mangas. Not saying it's all bad, just saying it's not impressed me so far.
