I liked both Kodomo No Jikan and Miman Renai a lot and recommend both, but even though both are awesome, I have that strong feeling that they could have been even much better with some changes.
In Kodomo No Jikan, the MC doesn't love the young girl who's in love with him enough. He constantly acts nonchalantly about her and her feelings and never stays in touch when they are far from each other for a period of time. This is frustrating to read as a JBcel tbh, I know he isn't in a position where he can fully reciprocate her feelings without suffering negative consequences, but he could at least not ignore her that way. Or at the very least have some internal dialogue that shows how much he loves her even when he's ignoring her. He being a schizoid fucker like that is very disappointing and rage-inducing tbh.
Miman Renai is super cute but dared way too little. It's barely a controversial manga if you actually read it instead of just being put off by the cover/synopsis like most normies probably would be. Nothing really happens beyond feelings and thoughts.
Both mangas were written by women. Both are great mangakas tbh, but I feel like a man is needed to have enough courage to write the ultimate loli/JB x adult man romance seinen manga. Also to write it from the male perspective better. Women tend to portray male characters in an overly goofy way, this happens in both these mangas tbh (at least there were some funny scenes because of it, but I wanted to see more romance and less humor tbh). It has to be more like Romeo and Juliet, both partners are crazy in love for each other, but can't be together because of external factors and potential consequences. And it must have a truly happy ending with them fucking without timeskips.
I have many stories I'd like to write but I ain't no writer tbh. I'm a musician.
