It's really cute, but like... A while chapter of just someone being kinda useless... >.<
This whole series borders on that.
I really like all of Itou Hachi's other works, but this one feels all out of balance. The young wife seems to be completely without utility in every respect. She's not good with helping out. She's not the object of any romantic or amorous feelings. The older wife seems to be patient and amused with the younger wife, despite that the younger wife seems to only make the older wife's life harder, and seems happy enough to let the younger wife just hang around the house all day, but that doesn't put the younger wife in any higher station than a typical household pet. The only redeeming quality the younger wife seems to bring to the mix is that she comes with a very competent servant . . . or should I say "keeper"?
If the younger wife is meant to be the protagonist, she should have some quality that makes we, the readers, identify with her struggles and conflicts. But I'm not feeling any sort of empathy for her--merely pity.
