Apparently, My Childhood Friend’s Older Sister, Who is Called a Gal Nowadays, is a Yandere Who Pathologically Loves Me, a Degraded Version of My Twin Brother Who Can Do Everything Perfectly

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

The main character, Kujo Yuito, has a twin brother, Kujo Ayato, who can do everything perfectly. Yuito, who is not one step ahead of Ayato in everything he does, has come to be called a degraded version of Ayato.

Therefore, he even thinks it is inevitable that his first love Yuuki Suzuno, his childhood friend, fell in love with his older brother Ayato instead of him.

Therefore, Yuito does not even dream that Suzuno’s sister Yuuki Kano, who is also the person Ayato loves, is morbidly in love with him.

I'm not sure what BriGuy has been reading, but it sure as sh*t wasn't this. I dropped this in the early chapters for exactly the reasons the second reviewer mentioned, but decided to pick it back up since BriGuy said that the collapsing star was actually starting to grow and obtain awareness, but holy shit that couldn't be further from the truth.

I toughed it out from where I dropped it, and from there all the way to the current chapter 54, I saw absolutely zero signs of character development. All... more>> throughout, Yuito was the same "my brother is superior, woe is me" infuriating attitude. Blushing furiously whenever something even vaguely s*xual in nature is so much as mentioned and adamantly denying anything positive being directed his way. I personally believe that some middle ground between the brothers' character traits is desirable, but I'd much rather read this story with Ayato as the main character, and for him to win. At least he actually knows what he wants, and isn't such a whiny little bit*h baby about literally everything.

I definitely won't be picking this back up again, even if it becomes a legitimate award winner. Lastly, BriGuy, get your eyes checked dude. <<less

Yet another title where early readers jump to a "dense protagonist" conclusion that simply continuing to read would dispel.

This is a story about a young man who's grown up with an understanding of the world around him that's a bit inaccurate, in no small part due to feelings of loneliness and inadequacy -- the latter due to comparing himself with his older twin only in ways he's inferior and never seeing the ways in which he surpasses him, the former due to an unrequited love for his childhood friend and... more>> the teasing he endures because of it from her slightly older sister.

Until the day that onee-san finally tells him that she's not just teasing. That she loves him. That he's a better person than his brother and a much better man.

From there, we follow him as he reassesses everything he believes, lets go of his childish understanding, gradually releases his hold on the things he can't have and grows to cherish the things he can.

It's not an immediate process. It can be frustrating to watch. At times, even the character himself notes where he should be changing even faster. It's tough to let go. That the story fully acknowledges all this is what makes it compelling.

(There's also a lot of ecchi talk and more than a few situations along the way that make it fun.) <<less

Ok, like the comment from Merged Amigo said, this novel is a mess, I even might call it garbage like Arifureta from Volume 2 onwards.

Now, the base concept of this is simple, this is a love square, so basically, the worst type of romcoms (if we are even capable of calling this a comedy).

Now onto the main characters:

Yuito our MC, a.k.a blind and dense PoS:

... more>>
Spoiler

Dude has an astronomycal inferior complex caused by both his "perfect" (yes emphasis on that) and any girl who uses him as a way to talk with his brother of course including his crush which is also his childhood friend. Now, despite that he still thinks he has a chance to win over his crush by making his brother's crush and his brother getting together (which is impossible for reasons I will cover later).

[collapse]

Ayato a.k.a gutless whiny MC. b*tch:

Spoiler

The indisputed and almighty "perfect" brother, hoo boi how do I start with this complete mess of a character, he is supposed to be written as a character you are supposed to hate... right? (Don't worry you will until ch.69 but I'll talk later about that). Now he is the reason our MC is dense and annoyingly distrustful with anything Kano does during the beggining, he is also a childhood friend of MC's crush and the latter's actual crush (despite him not really giving a single f*ck about her, just keeping her around to mess with the MC). He has a massive crush on Kano who literally says "nope" every time he confesses. He acts like a complete as*hole torwards the MC if he hears "Yuito" and "Kano" in the same sentence, he also looks down the MC constantly and until ch.68 where Kano literally tells him without any rondabouts that she loves the MC his ego breaks and in ch.69 we get his PoV on things... and this chapter is hilarious, the author wanted to feel sympathy for him but it had the opposite effect, if anything that chapter itself is pure unadultered comedy, why? Well we get to know why he looks down the MC and... is because during their childhood, both him and the MC saw Kano being bullied and while he being the "perfect one" he lacked the balls to help Kano, unlike the MC who jumped and despite getting beaten, he protected Kano (which ignited Kano's love torwards the MC), Since then the "perfect" brother started to look down the MC just to quoted by the actual character, "protect his fragile ego"... which ends up breaking apart after Kano's words, what makes this even funnier is that the dumbass started to say "I wish I were Yuito" I was like "bruh" when I read that, and after that he ends up getting a cold haha. The best part of that are the author's notes after all that justifying Ayato's behavior through the novel at the end of that chapter, pure comedy.

[collapse]
.

Suzuno a.k.a why are you part of the main cast?:

Spoiler

Yuito's unrequited crush and the one having an unrequited crush on Ayato. This character is garbage, she only exists to make the MC suffer and she is the main reason this novel dragged this long, she like any other girls who is not named Yuuki Kano, has a crush on Ayato's "perfection" (and yes, that's all her depth), now why is this mess of a girl the most annoying character in the novel? Simple, because she uses Yuito as a ladder to get to talk to Ayato (mind to add that the 4 main characters are childhood friends so she has no reason to trample the Yuito like that), Yuito ends up rejecting or avoiding any advances Kano tries with him as a result of the lack of trust and inferiority complex and this is all her character is, an addon to Ayato and the device to stretch this mess of a novel.

[collapse]

And finally, the main girl herself and the only saving grace of this tr*sh and the reason I endured the pain that is reading this tr*sh, I bring upon you, Yuuki Kano a.k.a I can fix her... forget it she is already perfect:

Spoiler

The undisputed yandere girl, when introduced she acts like the typical teasing gal with Yuito, but actually she has a crush on him since childhood after the shrine incident where she was being bullied where Yuito protected her, now, why is she the only saving grace? Is it because she is the only one that loves Yuito? Maybe, but the main reason is because she is aware of the main issues regarding our main cast, she know Yuito is a better guy than he gives himself credit for, also she know that Yuito has a crush on Suzuno (her own sister) but unlike Ayato who acts like a whiny b*tch, she doesn't have any hostility against Suzuno, she knows that she is "Suzuno's big reliable sister" first and foremost meaning that she doesn't look down at her, she helps her when she needs help and she spends time with her. Her behavior torwards Ayato is simple, while she doesn't hate Ayato, in fact she considers him a friend, she knows that he is a douchebag and that he has no chance in hell to even date her after all, despite he being a coward, has the audacity to look down the one she loves. Regarding her behavior with Yuito, she is head over heels with him, at the point of going full yandere, now, while she goes yandere mode, she isn't actually a yandere, she does things line erasing any other female contact in her phone, wiretap his browser history and install a gps on his phone, she barely even uses those things as she actually puts a whole lot of effort on winning him over (unfortunately even to this day, he still has a crush on Suzuno despite everything has happened, even Kano's confession which is the main reason people really hate this MC at times, myself included). As I stated before, any progress this novel should had made, is halted because the existence of Suzuno of course that includes Kano's advances, Kano's confession (ch. 30++), Ayato's breakdown (ch.68) and even the trip to kyoto.

[collapse]

I won't recommend this novel, I heard there is a manga but trust me, get the hell out from this mess of a novel, if you are expecting a romcom? This is not the work, if you are expecting character growth? Hoo boi you drifted so bad.

1 character cannot carry an entire work, but 1 character can ruin an entire work, this is what Kano and Suzuno are, Kano tries to move things forward but the author kills any progress just by putting Suzuno's name in any moment. <<less

As stated by others, MC is super dense. So if you want fluff and romance, wouldnt recommend reading this one. MC has extreme inferiority complex and always glazes his older brother every opportunity he can. Any advances made by the fMC are brushed off and MC constantly thinks she should be with his older brother. Author will milk this for many chps.

Personally, I enjoyed reading it.

But the MC is super dense. And sometimes, the signs are wayyyy too obvious for him to look over.

For instance: ... more>>
Spoiler

Kano (Older Sis) persistently hangs out with him and drags him around. The MC thinks of it as "friends hanging out", when Kano is clearly taking him out on dates (Hotel room with 1 bed, Vacation, etc.).

[collapse]

Also, most of it is just interactions between the MC and Kano, so you won't see much of Suzuno. I don't even remember if it mentions why the MC loves her (if it even mentions it at all). So you'll probably end up rooting for Kano.

Also, the Yandere Vibes I'm getting from Kano isn't insane as other Yanderes. Maybe it's because I'm desensitized to Yanderes from other novels. But Kano is pretty tame; she doesn't aggressively manipulate things around to make the MC like her. She actually puts in work to improve her relationship with the MC, despite being a Yandere.

For instance:
Spoiler

Kano takes the MC's phone and deletes all female contacts, which she never mentions why (The MC is SUPER dense for not knowing why she did this LMFAO). While also installing an invisible app that tracks what he searches up, his location, etc. All of which is pretty standard Yandere 101.


But there is never a circumstance where Kano shows / leaks this side of her to the MC (never sexually harassing the MC, never tells him to stay away from women, etc.). She only makes frequent suggestive jokes and stays true to her role of an Older Sister.
While only harboring a deep jealousy towards her younger sister for being the MC's crush, but never taking it too far (such as never hurting her, never ignoring her, no thoughts of wanting to kill her, etc.).
