How My Daddies Became Mates 2 by Mikkamita
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
The flow in this volume is a little better where the backstory comes first and then jumps back into the current timeline with Shima and her parents. It does leave a question on if Aoi's friends were correct with their assumption or if he really was just sick given the symptoms and no tests known of. We have yet more "troublemakers" identified as well, though one becomes a good friend and the other a person for them to avoid to the point that even that individual intentionally avoids contact with Aoi's family. Rather a bit of a change of pace after the kidnapping attempt, but it is also probably for the best so they aren't constantly aggravated. That wasn't a good move or in any way appropriate, especially knowing that Aoi already has a mate and has clearly said no repeatedly.

How My Daddies Became Mates 1
How My Daddies Became Mates 1 by Mikkamita
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
While the basic omegaverse gender and society roles apply here, the world building is a bit different. In most cases, the omega comes across as more timid and in many ways forced into a relationship. In this case, we get the story not as it happens, but as recounting events for their daughter, Shima. It turns out both of them were basically punks in rival schools until that rivalry turned into fantasizing and eventually revealing their feelings to each other in about the most awkward ways possible. Aoi seems a bit closer to the mark a lot sooner with his research on fated mates while Akane is in denial up until he convinces himself he doesn't have a chance. It doesn't seem to take them long to get on the same page once their feelings are out there, though they still rush the whole mating and at least talk about marriage (though that doesn't come until after the mating). The rush is somewhat expected though given the whole premise of fated mates and how they're drawn together, even if it seems Akane still isn't hitting the mark with any realizations there. Rather, seems he might just be really lucky.
