This is my first ever review on MAL, I thought it would be a start to review this one. This manga is so relatable to me as a gay man, I don’t wanna give off spoilers but basically I always wanted to find love and be loved, having that special someone is such a wonderful feeling for me, and finding that is harder for the gay community since there’s less gay men out there. This is such a great manga and I recommend to anyone in the LGBTQ community, especially if you’re longing for true love, just know that there’s always someone out there foryou. This manga was actually exactly what I was looking for for years. With all that being said, the reason why I’m giving it a 9 and not a 10 is because the pacing felt a bit fast, I feel like there were a lot of important events that were left out, other than that it’s a great manga that I’m definitely going to keep rereading.
On October 10, 2016, Ryousuke Nanasaki married the love of his life, Ryousuke. But the time leading up to this day was anything but easy. Feelings of self-hatred, heart-wrenching breakups, and coming out to his family—it was all an uphill battle.
Based on the autobiographical web essay of the same title, Boku ga Otto ni Deau made follows Nanasaki's life and his journey to discover a happy ending together with his husband.

"I think the hardest days for me were the ones where I hated myself. Even if nobody else understood me, I wish I had stood up for myself. I wish that I could have believed that one day I would be happy." God, every chapter made me tear up like when will this guy ever get a break and find happiness. It's so lonely and sad with everything that he's gone through to find the love he deserved. There were good times and bad times, but in the end he wants to live a life of marriage and contentment. And suddenly we get to see how hisworld slowly turned out for the better. He has such great and supporting friends, his mom who once doesn't want the issue to be brought up only to happy call him and tell him some great news, and he met his husband. Imagine having the love of your life having the same name as you? "It's fate", as what Ryosuke said.
I wish I could read his essay in its entirety. Although the manga showed great interpretation of his feelings and emotions and was able to greatly portray the series of his life pretty well, with how raw and poignant is was, I believe his essay delved a little more deeper on what and how he's been going through. Also, I want to read in great detail about the proposal to how they end up with the Partnership.
My heart just weeps for this wonderful story of life, love, finding happiness and a joyous happily ever after.

" Before people are born... they probably submit a form to God. It has choices for everything. Nationality, race, gender-- all the details. and then that person is born based on those choices. I think there must have been a mistake with mine." I have a deep love for the genre of biography, I love listening to different stories on life and how people have chosen to live theirs or the lack of choices they have had that shaped them. This manga is zero exception to this rule. Ryousuke Nanasaki beautifully pours his feelings out into this manga, and they are beautifully illustrated by Yoshi Tsukizukiin a way that feels beautiful and strong wrapped together. There is no cutting corners with Nanasaki's experience. The less pretty aspects of being LGBTQ+ in Japan are shown just as grotesque as he experienced them. Which makes this being a true story that much more powerful. Having experienced numerous moral dilemmas and dread for life, he learns to accept himself and blossom into the person he is now.
The art is very clean and pretty, but does its job in showing each moment in Nanasaki's life. Some of the dialogue might come across as dramatic or ingenuine but, I love the attention to feelings and the art being able to illustrate Nanasaki's pain he feels throughout his years of accepting his identity.
If you are LGBTQ+ or know anyone who is, I recommend reading this. Even if that doesnt apply to you, still a recommend due to its wonderful story telling and to get a better picture of the world around us.
