My Thoughts on A New Beginning of Youth with My Former Student Starting from Divorce
First Impressions
Okay, the title is a mouthful, right? "A New Beginning of Youth with My Former Student Starting from Divorce" definitely grabbed my attention, though I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. The tags – adult, drama, mature, romance, school life, and netorare – painted a somewhat conflicting picture. Going in, I was prepared for a potentially messy, perhaps even uncomfortable, read.
What Works Well
Despite my initial hesitations, I found myself surprisingly invested in the protagonist's journey. The story centers around a man reeling from a painful betrayal and divorce, and his unexpected connection with a former student. The core of the story seems to be about healing and finding happiness again after having his life turned upside down. I appreciate that the relationship between the protagonist and the former student isn't portrayed as a simple, lust-driven affair. Instead, it's depicted as a more spiritual journey, a process of rebuilding and finding solace in an unexpected place. The slow burn romance is a definite plus for me. The female lead having feelings first is also a trope I enjoy.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the overall narrative, I do have a few reservations. The pacing can feel a bit disjointed at times. Also, the excerpts focusing on the ex-wife's lover felt somewhat disconnected from the main plot. While I understand the intention – to explore the dangers of online dating and adultery – their inclusion felt a bit jarring. Hopefully, a smoother translation can clarify the purpose and impact of these sections.
