This article includes spoilers for the manga “Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru (My Dress-Up Darling).” Reader discretion is advised.
You can't deny it.”Sleep Doll Bisque wa Koi wo Suru (My dear dress up)” is one of the biggest romantic comedies of the moment, largely driven by a successful anime adaptation in 2022 that has unfortunately been put on hold despite a sequel being officially promised. Furthermore, author Shinichi Fukuda has been slowing down her publishing pace, although the work is currently in one of its most dramatic arcs.
No, no one has died nor is there any imminent danger coming, the current story arc has left readers anxious because the relationship between the protagonists, Wakana Gojo and Marin Kitagawa, has deteriorated to a point where it has been completely threatened. After Marin Kitagawa's successful performance cosplaying as Haniel in the Divine Mandate Arc, Marin received an official offer to become a professional cosplayer through an agency.
However, it is more than clear that the agency wants to hire her, not Gojo, so accepting the proposal means that the relationship between them will inevitably break down, since Gojo will no longer be able to design looks for her. So far, Marin has kept the topic of the proposal to herself, but the latest chapter featured an unexpected development that has left readers quite worried.
The distance between the two has grown considerably, and both are clearly suffering from this situation. Only a few weeks have passed since Comiket, the event for which Marin Kitagawa became known. However, preparations for the Hina Doll Festival are already starting, so cosplay activities between the two will have to be paused for a while, or perhaps even longer than planned.

Marin Kitagawa, in turn, is at her lowest emotional point. You can sense his strategy of “doing nothing and letting time tell the answer,” but he also desperately tries to speed things up and tell Gojo about the proposal.although he doesn't do it for fear of how things might end.

Although the preparations for the upcoming festival were the perfect opportunity to get back together, Marin thought she could take advantage of the moment to tell Gojo about the situation. However, he soon changed his mind because it would ruin the only moment they had together in a while.

“I should keep faking a smile, am I doing it right?” she says to herself. And then comes a big revelation that some already assumed, because Gojo says that his passion for hina dolls comes not only from the fact that he admires them for their beauty, but also because having dedicated himself to training in this art helped him a lot to deal with the death of his parents during his childhood.

That's precisely why Non-chan's words hurt him so much in the past, because the Hina dolls were what practically helped him survive a tragedy that few could imagine. “Even though Wa-chan is a boy, why do you like dolls? “You’re disgusting and I hate you!” were the words Non-chan said to him in his childhood.

In this way, Gojo seems to assume that his relationship with Marin will end the moment their collaborative relationship in the cosplay world ends. Although he tries to deal with this like any other situation from his past, it seems that this is the most complicated of his life. Meanwhile, this revelation makes Marin see that asking him to continue helping her cosplay is simply an obstacle to him achieving his dream. How can they come to a solution that satisfies both of them?

And as the relationship between the two continues to break down, the most unexpected moment arrives: the return of Non-chan. The same girl who insulted Gojo in the past and called him “disgusting” for his taste in dolls. What is the author's intention in bringing this character back? Although it scares many, it is clear that it could be the key piece to the puzzle.

Many will propose that his return was unnecessary, but, How will Marin Kitagawa react when she realizes that it was the girl in front of her who traumatized the man she loves?
- «Damn, it's the rat girl from before. Just when I thought they were going to work out their issues during this chapter, this happened. This better help Marin finally get the courage to say how she feels.».
- «Oh no, why don't they just break up? There's no point in continuing this drama.».
- «Oh no, the author will continue to extend this manga now that she does it monthly, you would think that would mean writing longer chapters, but not even that».
- «After so much waiting, will this be the chapter we will get? It's too short».
- «Wow, it's been five months and these two still haven't had "the talk." And now the author brings into the picture the girl who traumatized Gojo».
- «I hope this bitch serves as a catalyst for these two idiots to finally leave.».
- «That's probably the author's intention. There hasn't been much progress so far, but if Marin stays on the defensive against a potential enemy, we might get the breakthrough we want.».
- «Is this a sudden love triangle? If it turns out that Non-chan has been in love with Gojo the whole time, this manga is going to turn into a stinking mess.».
- «Why does the author feel the need to make Gojo's life difficult? I guess we'll have to wait another month to finally get a resolution to the problem between Gojo and Marin.».
- «Well, maybe this bitch will help Gojo realize what he feels for Marin. I can't help but think that Gojo is a good and bad protagonist at the same time, there are times when I completely hate him».
