Bambi to Dhole review
This is my first review. I have never written one before, but now I'm feeling that I need to do it because this story is amazing.
It's a shoujo and, obviously, it has some cliché events but anyway this story is different from the majority of shoujo stories. I just loved it and read in a day. To me, Bambi to Dhole is better than many other famous manga, and it deserved a better note. Because of this, I decided to write this review. I really enjoyed the characters development, the way that they get maturity and become able to deal with their problems. The story is not long and much less not tiring, it's possible to enjoy reading from beginning to end. What I liked the most about this story was, in fact, the subject. To this day, I haver ever not read any shoujo with a theme at least similar to this. I really had the feeling of reading something new. It's worth reading. |
Bambi to Dhole review
"They say wolf is a creature that won't feel lonely even if it's alone."
Warm, touching and full of heart. Something that makes you cry tears of happiness. It's not often you find a gem like that among the forest of generic romance stories which many times feature incapable protagonists, shallow and frustrating relationships and endless cycle of misunderstandings as a plot device, but with this manga I was left with feelings so sanguine it almost hurts. Hereby presenting: Bambi to Dhole. *A spoiler free review* "Are wolves scary?" Bambi to Dhole is the more serious, down-to-earth type of story. It's like a love child of Bitter Virgin and Taiyou no Ie - both worth a read - incorporating many of their key elements: characters who feel like they don't belong, family issues and taboo-worthy secrets with the strong backdrop of romance. There's sadness and hope, likeable and believable characters and tiny amount of candyfloss all woven together beautifully. While not rid of some typical shoujo romance tropes, it's quite self-aware and manages to keep its paws on the ground delivering us something that tastes like real life. "Who is the wolf now?" The characters are what really made this story for me. I love gals and guys who act tough and consider themselves misfits without really trusting anyone around them. In here we have the adorable, two-faced Fawn who hides herself behind the perfect girl act and the bit of a bad boy Wolf who shows indifferent face to cope with his life. Together they clash, spark and start to mature from their one-dimensional views of themselves and the people around them. The main leads had good chemistry and felt realistic down to their thoughts and actions. Their relationship with each other was the hide and their relationship with others the fur of the story. I liked how people were shown in their best, in their worst and in between. Being relatively short, the story didn't have time to fully explore all the relations presented, but I felt that all the characters got a good conclusion. "They say wolf is a cruel and lonely creature but the truth is that it cares a lot about it's family." Seemingly generic, Bambi to Dhole somehow manages to tackle expectations. With its good pacing, wistful and beautiful tone and sensible manner to treat its characters and their issues it creates a well-balanced story about love in it's different forms. Accompanied with fitting, simple and fluid art and a good comic timing it's a total sleeper among other shoujo romance stories. Recommendable to everyone in need of something warmhearted, moving and relatable. Oh, and the last panels are something that would leave even the hungriest wolf satisfied. TL;DR Bambi to Dhole is a coherent story distinguishing itself from most shoujo romances and succeeding in its depiction of how different types of relationships can form and change. A nice mix of drama, romance and great character development will leave you blissful and wanting for more. |
Bambi to Dhole review
This manga changed my life! The characters are mature for their ages but they still learn life lessons which the reader can learn as well. there is some philosophy involved too which is what majorly changed my life for the better. the manga can go from sort of slow to i need to read the next chapter now! which is okay. the characterization is slowly worked through as well which is great to see in a manga. sure they drop the big things on you at first but only what is needed for the plot or to carry on a scene. i also love that
they include a single father in highschool. you don't tend to see that in very many manga and this isnt happy go lucky, there are true depictions of fatherhood in here and i love that we get to see the character grow through his insecurities like many real fathers go through.

Bambi to Dhole review
At first glance, Bambi to Dhole is an incredibly stereotypical shoujo. You have a two-faced main heroine who acts super sweet on the outside but is actually kind of rude, and a male lead who appears to be a "lone-wolf" on the outside but is actually incredibly sweet and caring. However, it quickly evolved into something much more meaningful and mature than your typical high school romance. The emphasis on family and feeling like you belong is reminiscent of Taiyou no Ie (House of Light) and as a whole works to make the story incredibly moving.
The story on its own is relatively forgettable: you have an outwardly sweet girl, Tobe "Bambi" Yukimi, who disguises her feelings, and a semi-aggressive guy, Nagasawa Tetsu, who turns out to be a huge family-guy. It is revealed early on in the story that Yukimi is adopted and therefore doesn't feel as though she fits in around her family, and Tetsu is actually father to a 3 year-old son, Raichi. These elements could quickly send a story astray if undeveloped, but Bambi to Dhole really develops each aspect of the plot in spite of its brevity. The story moves quickly though realistically, and helps to develop themes of change and belonging while remaining enjoyable and interesting. However, where Bambi to Dhole really shines is in character development. For a short manga of only 21 chapters, it is incredibly surprising to find characters that grow as much as Yukimi and Tetsu. Yukimi in particular started off as incredibly obnoxious to me, however I was soon surprised with her maturity and determination to change. Her character transcends many shoujo cliches, such as being indecisive or avoidant, and she handles her problems realistically which makes her all the more relatable. Although she undoubtedly does cry a pretty decent amount, it's always believable. She changes to tackle her issues with her friends and Tetsu by talking to them straight-out, so many problems that would have become nothing but sources for drama in other shoujos here only serve to develop her character further. As a result, by the end of the manga, Yukimi has become incredibly relatable and admirable in comparison to her old self. Much of this change is attributed to the presence of Tetsu, who serves as a kind of anchor for Yukimi and serves as a caring presence who encourages her to talk about her feelings more. In the process, Tetsu also develops, moving on from his past love and accepting the changes that come his way. The relationships between the characters are equally developed, most notably being with Tetsu, Yukimi, their friends, and their families. As the series progresses, Yukimi starts to open up to her friends more, and the friendship they display is really touching and it feels very real. Although they may display jealousy or momentary anger, they always accept one another for each's faults and make up with a hug. Yukimi also starts to open up to her family, allowing them to see parts of her character that she normally would have covered up with a smile. Tetsu shows similar developments: he quickly becomes friends with the class and cherishes Raichi. He also ends up moving on from his past love, learning to accept and live with his feelings while falling in love with Yukimi. THe relationship between Yukimi and Tetsu is incredibly touching because it starts out as so much more than just romance (in fact, I almost wished it had stayed just a friendship sometimes) and they just really helped one another to grow. One minor complaint would just be the art and the style of the manga. There were a lot of flashbacks, some of which seemed awkwardly placed, and the art was relatively generic. However, these flaws were far overshadowed by the complexity of the characters and the plot. In conclusion, Bambi to Dhole shows incredible maturity and development when addressing themes of family and acceptance. As Yukimi and Tetsu grow, they learn so much about one another and the people around them, and manage to open up to the important people in their lives and each other. The story was shown in a very realistic way, in spite of the mature ideas of child parenting and being an orphan which have sometimes been abused in other manga. As a whole, Bambi to Dhole really managed to positively develop the relationship between two relatively broken people in a way that helped them to not only to accept themselves but also allow everyone else the same opportunity. |
Bambi to Dhole review
This manga is so sweet and deserves much more attention! The story is not complicated although it deals with topics like teenage parenthood and trauma from being adopted. However, most importnant and beautiful thing about this manga are its characters, their interactions and changes in their lives that they undergo. They are very very well written, never flat, everything is believable without uneccessary drama. I just love how the characters grow, learn and communicate with each other, trust each other and learn to depend more on other people throughout the series. I love their growing maturity and understanding of changes happening inside and dealing
with them. In my opinion it is less romance manga and more coming of age story that you will read in one breath.
.... I am conflicted about the art, it is not typical shojo-manga-style, eyes are smaller, bodies less leaner, overall leaning towards realism nevertheless I have come to appreciate it. |

This is my first review. I honestly didn't plan on writing anything but I saw the score this manga has and I think it deserves better.
This is probably one of my favorite manga, and I know that's a bold claim. Not because the story is super original or the characters are something else, but because it feels really human. From reading the synopsis I totally didn't expect such a mature view on the topics the manga deals with. I thought it would just be a cliché love story about a girl and a boy that just so happens to have a kid. The way the mangaka dealt with complex themes as teenage parenthood and being an orphan is just flawless, and the inclusion of them wasn't just a cliché plot device. The way the plot grows around the teenage parenthood instead of in spite of it is specially worth mentioning. It never felt as if Tetsu being a dad was an afterthought just for the novelty of it. I also really enjoyed how one of the principal focuses is how you shouldn't be afraid to show your real self to the people you love. This isn't a story that only focuses on romance, it's a story about family, having to grow up fast and where you fit into the world. The characters develop in a natural and believable way and they slowly win you over. They are incredibly mature for a shoujo manga and it's a great change of scenery not having to read through chapter upon chapter of the same misunderstanding because the characters don't know how to talk without being vague and assuming stuff. It's totally a shoujo with a josei feel to it. This manga is sweet and short, but at the same time it gives you the closure you need. The ending may feel a bit rushed but it doesn't leave you feeling like something's missing, and I really appreciate that in a manga. It ends just where it needs to end. |

If you are asking to yourself something like "should i read this manga?" or "this manga doesn't look very interesting" "its a little cliche?" please listen to me. This manga is beautiful, i really changed me a lot because the characters are so mature and they went through a lot. Yukimi is an incredible protagonist just like Tetsu, they really deserved to be happy and i'm glad they are. You will enjoy this manga? Yes. You will feel happy? Yes. You will cry? A lot. Besides of that, you finish this manga with a smile in your face, with a good sensation. Please give it
a chance.

Bambi to Dhole review
This manga had *so much potential* for me. The main characters are interesting with struggles that are much more mature than you'll find in most shoujo. While this is a romance, the themes are much more centered on family and finding a sense of belonging. Being an adopted child myself, I found myself really relating to Yukimi's feelings and her desperate need for acceptance. The dynamics and parallels between several relationships were very well crafted.
Unfortunately, the plot suffered from overuse of cheap cliches. Characters coincidentally running into each other at the perfect moment, accidentally overhearing conversations, a shallow rival love interest that pops up out of nowhere and quickly becomes irrelevant, the magical child who innocently says whatever the adult characters need to hear at any given moment.. these are all staples of shoujo and drama that I've become accustomed to and even enjoy most of the time. However, their use here felt rote and so clunky that it pulled me out of the story.. frequently. It could have used some polishing is all I'm saying, but I still enjoyed it and think it's worth a read for anyone who wants to read about complex characters in a mediocre plot with *stunning* themes. |
