By 一枝花
2024
Description
My phone got infected with a virus, and a chibi anime man appeared. The chibi man claimed to be my boyfriend and insisted that I must tell him “I love you” every morning. If I didn’t, he would cling to the business app and prevent me from clocking in. When he got jealous, he would forcibly block male colleagues who chatted with me. He even stole money from other people’s Alipay accounts to give to me.

My Thoughts on Boyfriend in the Screen
"Boyfriend in the Screen" promised a cute and quirky romance, and for the most part, it delivered. It’s a quick read, perfect for when you want something light and fluffy, but I definitely had some mixed feelings by the end.
First Impressions
The premise immediately grabbed me. A love interest manifesting as a virtual boyfriend through an app? Sign me up! I was ready for some adorable shenanigans and a modern-day twist on the classic shoujo romance. The initial chapters definitely delivered on that promise. The interactions were sweet, and the female lead's initial surprise and eventual acceptance of the situation felt believable.
What Works Well
The story's strongest point is its sheer charm. The author does a great job of creating a lighthearted and engaging atmosphere. I particularly enjoyed the way the male lead pursued the female lead, his persistence was endearing and he definitely falls for her first. The short story format works in its favor, preventing the plot from dragging and keeping the focus on the central romance.
Areas of Concern
Okay, let's talk about the elephant in the room. While the story is presented as a cute romance, there are some seriously questionable elements that I couldn’t quite shake off. I couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy about the male lead's methods. There's a fine line between charmingly persistent and downright creepy, and I felt like this story occasionally crossed that line. It definitely made me pause and re-evaluate my enjoyment of the "cute" romance.

Final Verdict
"Boyfriend in the Screen" is a mixed bag. It's undeniably cute and charming, but the male lead's actions raise some serious red flags. If you can overlook the ethical concerns and just enjoy the fluff, you might find it to be a delightful read. However, if you're sensitive to privacy violations or find obsessive behavior off-putting, this one might not be for you. I'm ultimately landing somewhere in the middle – entertained, but also slightly disturbed.
