My Thoughts on After Rebirth: What Should I Do if My Boyfriend Has a Boyfriend?
This title grabbed me immediately, and I dove in eager for some comedic angst. "After Rebirth: What Should I Do if My Boyfriend Has a Boyfriend?" delivers a quick, light-hearted read with a unique premise, though it's not without its flaws.
First Impressions
The initial setup is intriguing: Jiang Yi, our MC, regresses to his 18-year-old self only to discover his future husband, Chu Chuan, is currently dating someone else. This sets the stage for a potentially dramatic and angsty ride as he tries to win back his love. The pacing is fast, almost feeling like a summary at times, which can be both a blessing and a curse.
What Works Well
I really enjoyed the dynamic between the MC and ML. Their relationship is portrayed as refreshingly realistic, with plenty of playful bickering that feels more like close friends than a typical romantic couple. The MC's shamelessness and confidence in pursuing Chu Chuan, despite the circumstances, is endearing and often hilarious. He's a puppy-dog type, honest with his feelings, and I found myself rooting for him even when the ML was being particularly cold. The author also does a good job with the side characters, making them distinct despite the story's primary focus on the central couple.
Areas of Concern
The fast pace, while preventing the angst from becoming overwhelming, also leads to some issues. The ML's sudden shift in feelings towards the MC felt rushed and not entirely earned. I wanted to see more of a struggle, more development in their relationship in the "present" timeline to justify their eventual reunion. Additionally, the plot can be a bit confusing at times, with jumps between timelines that are not always clearly delineated. Some may find the the MC's actions borderline stalkerish, as he pursues someone in a relationship, which may be off-putting.
