A very chill series

Psyche House

(Omusuke Kobayashi)

May 2024 to September 2024

17 Chapters

What I Liked

• The creative ways they used their psyches
• The family feel of the house and housemates
• A single dad character and a talking ‘pet’ character
• Kotone and Nemu had a nice sibling-ish relationship going on

Where I Think Things Went Wrong

• It was really laid back without much conflict or laughs, so definitely outside the usual WSJ mold
• Definitely was more of a ‘xx of the week’ kinda series so without much of an overarching plot to keep people hooked, or a growing cast of weirdos to play off each other like a gag manga would have
• Neither MC was particularly quirky or memorable (I like them though)

Conclusion

I enjoyed this series and thought it was charming. I would have liked to eventually read about each characters backstories, like how they discovered their quirks / initial struggles / acceptance kinda thing.
