Unexpected My Love Story!! (Ore Monogatari!!) Reunion

I finished watching the new episode of Nokotan and was surprised when I heard the voice of the cafe owner.

He's voiced by Takuya Eguchi.

Noko is voiced by Megumi Han.

These two were in an anime together before, My Love Story!! They were the leads!

I adored that anime, so I was surprised to realize it was a surprise reunion.

TAKEO GOUDA, RINKO YAMATO, and MAKOTO "SUNA" SUNAKAWA from MY LOVE STORY!!

Justification:

"Suna is already practically dating these two. They constantly invite him on their dates and plan things for him in just as detailed a way as they do each other. He's the Queer-Platonic member of their relationship. They can always go to him for advice, and he always finds joy in their antics. They're the happiest example of "You and me, and your friend Steve"." - Anonymous

My Love Story!!! isn't just a trope subversion of "cute girl gets with ugly guy". A big thing with the story is Yamato thinks Takeo is HOT. Like yes she loves his personality but its really his looks that she is usually focusing on. AND THATS A GOOD THING.

Think of it this way, "You have a great personality" is usually used as a shorthand in media to highlight physical lacking. You have to get by having a great personality because you're ugly. Thats also what Takeo has been told before. He's not beautiful or an ikemen like Makoto but he's kind and purehearted, funny and great but he's in competition with Makoto and he's not conventionally attractive they don't expect him to get a girlfriend and therefore he's not enough. This is even brought up by Makoto's sister: no one would date him because he's not conventionally attractive.

We're AWARE of this because we're aware of shoujo troupes. We're aware of the funny fat friend. In our culture, in the real world.

Now before I bring up the subversion of Takeo, because obviously thats a big theme in My love story i want to bring up Yamato. If Takeo is a subversion of Shoujo male leads, Yamamoto is a subversion of Shounen romance female leads. "How?" You ask, "Yamamoto is obviously adorable and conventonally attractive' and to that i say YES, You are so correct! Thats the point. She's beautiful and clumsy and adorable and thats why she's a subversion.

She is so much morte than a pretty face, even when we first meet her trying to court Takeo we find a hobby: Baking. And obviously Takeo likes to eat.

The real subverion of My love story obviously comes by their love. But its so much more than "Cute girl loves ugly guy". Its the fact that Takeo does think Rinko is cute, but more importasntly its Takeo caring about her interest. He takes her to cafes and is aware of her baking hobby. He's more in love with Rinko than her body. She's so much more than a "cute girl"

and on the flip side: RINKO IS HORNY AS FUCK! There are three episodes that continuosly show us how Horny on main Rinko is. The fanservice isn't on Rinko its on Takeo. She thinks he's HOT. Yes she loves his personality but He's HOT. To her Takeo isn't "the ugly guy" he's a hot guy.

Every now and then I like to update a print design to see how much I've improved, and it's so satisfying to see! These are both a little old but only two years apart from each other! Also everyone needs to watch/read Ore Monogatari (the big guy gets the girl 🥰)

A simple little sketch of Sunakawa finding shrunk Takeo and Yamato, they’re just a bunch of cuties

(the idea 1st was tiny rinko in suna’s hands and takeo on his shoulder but then it evolved into this)

Happy Birthday

Rinko Yamato (15th June)

My Love Story!!

[artblogofanekophile]

My partner put on MY LOVE STORY!!! to watch while I was in a bad spot, and I thought Rinko was so cute I wanted to draw her!

The series is really adorable. Me and my partner go "us" at least once an episode because we were also really oblivious that the other liked us until I finally confessed.

I really reccommend checking it out if you like really fluffy romances!

Palette Credit!

It’s a bit annoying that in the anime Takeo and Yamato harp so much more on Suna about him not being interested in romance than they do in the manga. Like it’s certainly present in the manga but tonally much different and not nearly to the same extent and I definitely prefer the way it’s handled there than the anime.
