My Thoughts on Little Ancestor
"Little Ancestor" is a novel I approached with a mix of curiosity and caution, given the varied reactions I'd seen. It's a coming-of-age story with romance, school life, and shounen ai elements, and the tags promised a heartwarming journey with devoted love interests. Did it deliver? Mostly, yes, but with a few caveats.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the promise of a sweet and gentle romance. The premise of a free-spirited high schooler meeting a sincere, hardworking boy from a rural background intrigued me. I was eager to see how their relationship would blossom.
What Works Well
The core strength of "Little Ancestor" lies in the chemistry between the two leads. I found their interactions genuinely endearing, the kind that leaves you with a warm, fuzzy feeling. The male lead is indeed a green flag, pure, gentle, and devoted. I appreciated that the romance wasn't rushed; it built steadily, allowing me to invest in their feelings for each other. The story isn't overly angsty, which I appreciated. It's more about the characters' growth and their developing bond.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed many aspects of the story, I can't ignore some of the criticisms I encountered. Some readers were troubled by perceived biases and inaccuracies in the author's portrayal of foreign cultures, particularly regarding education systems. While I personally didn't find it significantly detracted from my enjoyment, I understand why it could be a point of contention for others. I also noticed a concern that the MC might be a character type that some find tedious, someone who is slow to adapt and overly devoted.

Final Verdict
Overall, I found "Little Ancestor" to be a cute and heartwarming read. If you're looking for a sweet romance with a devoted male lead and are willing to overlook some potential cultural missteps, this might be a good choice for you. However, if you're particularly sensitive to potentially biased portrayals of other countries, you might want to proceed with caution. I'd give it a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars.
