My Thoughts on As I Faked Amnesia, My Love Rival Claimed that I am His Boyfriend
Okay, let's dive into "As I Faked Amnesia, My Love Rival Claimed that I am His Boyfriend." This title alone had me intrigued, and the initial premise seemed promising. However, after digging into the details, I've got some mixed feelings.
First Impressions
Initially, the story draws you in with the amnesia trope, which, let's be honest, is a classic for a reason. The setup, where the love rival claims to be the boyfriend, creates an immediate hook. Early on, the relationship between the MC and ML appears sweet, almost innocent, with a touch of angst. Descriptions of their younger years are bittersweet, adding depth to the ML's motivations. The initial chapters paint a picture of fluff and gentle romance, making you believe the MC has simply stumbled into an unusual, but not necessarily harmful, situation.
What Works Well
The writing itself seems to be a strong point, at least in the beginning. The early chapters are well-written and engaging, successfully selling the "mostly innocent" vibe. The development of the characters' initial relationship, before the amnesia, is well-crafted, making the ML's actions somewhat understandable, even if questionable. The author does a decent job of creating a believable, if slightly skewed, dynamic between the two leads.
Areas of Concern
This is where things get a bit dicey. Apparently, the "mostly innocent" facade crumbles pretty quickly. There are some serious red flags raised regarding the ML's behavior as the story progresses. The tags alone – "abusive characters," "male yandere," "manipulative characters," "obsessive love" – hint at the darkness that lurks beneath the surface.

Final Verdict
Overall, "As I Faked Amnesia, My Love Rival Claimed that I am His Boyfriend" is a mixed bag. The initial premise is intriguing, and the writing is decent, but the darker elements and questionable character behavior ultimately overshadow the positives. If you're a fan of yandere characters and don't mind heavy doses of angst and potentially triggering content, this might be your cup of tea. However, if you prefer a lighter, healthier romance, I'd suggest steering clear. I'm giving this a hesitant 3/5. Proceed with caution and be prepared for a rollercoaster of emotions, not all of them pleasant.
