(torikai + yajima )
+ rivals to lovers! they're both firefighters too~ coworkers + neighbors (coincidentally ) love love their dynamic! <3
+ i've grown to love this couple tbh, they had a rocky start. but, they eventually started to open up which led to them being officially together
+ i like how their chaotic dynamic never changed even after being bfs! >< though, i can see that they became a bit softer and sweet to one another which is adorbs they admire e/o a lot :))
+ i'm glad the 2nd volume addressed some past "issues" which made them communicate and have a better understanding of one another i also like seeing the ML open up more! i hope he soon reciprocate the MC's "ILYs"
+ i'm so seated for the upcoming sequel i would love to see more domesticity from them !! maybe they'll even start living together soon this author never fails to make amazing stories with the most beautiful art
(kazari + kotaro )
+ bandmates to lovers! essentially, unrequited love for both parties since the MC fell in love with his step brother while the ML had a crush on MC so that's that
+ the admiration of MC for his step-bro wasn't the weird kind, okay !! i can see why he fell for him since he was a really good person :))
+ i would've liked the ML more if wasn't so touchy-feely with MC like, MC just met him and he's already all over him bro chill!
+ although they had a pretty iffy start, i still liked how they ended up together! ML genuinely liked MC ever since the beginning of the band so we could say that his feelings were true ^^
+ apparently, there's a 2nd volume so maybe if i see more of them, my rating would go higher as i'll have a better understanding of their connection and we get to see more of their relationship too the art is so so pretty too !!
(sak + lima )
+ apocalyptic setting! caller x core user (supernatural genre) & very psychological too :)) it's like a destiny type of trope? something to do with connections like a red string of sorts
+ might be my new fave manhwa i've read recently the amount of plot twists ???? the story was so well-made! i got hooked which made it even faster to finish! (i didn't want it to end )
+ i must admit, there were still a few loopholes that didn't have any concrete answers but ig i'm just glad the two MCs finally got some kind of peace, although they're pretty much still on the run :((
+ i have lots of questions about the whole epidemic and like the real goal of the research institute because they were so secretive... i'm also curious about the other two guys who just kept popping up randomly like idk what their characters were supposed to be?
+ i really liked how refreshing this concept was! the writing was so poetic and i just think the mystery that comes with how the story ended also gives it more flavor! the art style is amazing too! love the pop of color whenever they introduce a new scene/character~
+ i also want to point out how the MCs never exchanged "ILYs" because they had their own ways of doing so? and, it felt even more genuine since they entrusted their lives to one another
(skylar + cirrus )
+ classmates to enemies? to lovers :)) blackmailing trope but it didn't last for long interest turned into obsession? very psychological hehe
+ let me just say, this was a whole ass ride! all the characters had issues? HAHAHA like, they're all imperfect and had depth in them which made it quite realistic
+ both of them are twisted, okay. they both had their fair share of trauma & abuse which explains why they were the way they are~
+ i love how they had their own unique way of showing affection toward each other. i like how each season focused on each of their background which gave more context to their behavior
+ i was so happy for them since after everything, they eventually got their own happy ending i'm glad that they found home & healed by being together.
+ i must admit, i wasn't satisfied with how cirrus' family issues were handled... idk why but i just feel like it's so unfair for him. but ig i'm glad that he finally (somewhat) got freedom :)) i wish we got more side stories though i wanted to see more of their happy era!
+ the art is so pretty !!! it really captures the whole vibe of the story i like the conclusion/closure between the friends & ig the character development among the characters was also quite evident ^0^
(nanmu + pilgyun )
+ to put it simply, it's all about daddy issues ?? JK !!!! a mafia/gang member x his ex-stepson who fell in love with him since he was still young so he devices a plan to find him & make him his.
+ well,,, it was a very fun ride, i suppose? tbh, i actually liked this story a lot. i was hesitant, at first, since the ML kept calling MC "dad" but i just got used to it because he never stopped even after they officially got together.
+ i like the psychological aspect of it! all of them are morally gray characters. they've dirtied their hands, went through tons of abuse, however, they still wanted to live a normal life at the end. and, all of us deserves a second chance! so i'm glad they eventually got there :)) still a weird set-up, but ML genuinely loves MC, and MC grew to love ML
+ i thought i was gonna hate the MC's gang brothers, but i guess all the hate & anger should be directed to their "father." they've been through so much together :(( i'm happy they finally (i hope) found peace after everything went down!
+ the art is always amazing !!! BWOT-nim's art keep improving in every manhwa ^^ i hope they recover soon since they're currently sick :<
(dojin + juyeon )
+ idk what to call this trope actually? but it's about a guy who falls in love with his sister's ex-fiance... psychological genre
+ it was very poetic,,, it had a lot of metaphorical dialogues which was beautiful to read ^^ i actually found the plot interesting too! the only problem was it had noncon in it
+ this could've been done without r4pe in it... but oh well :/ i'm glad they got a happy ending, i guess? i think the ending was quite open-ended as well since we still don't know if the MC eventually developed true romantic feelings for the ML :))
+ i actually thought the ML was gonna be some type of psychopath. well,,, he was lowkey weird & of course he violated the MC... i think it might be also because he kind of lost hope in MC's recovery (it was still not a justifiable action!)
+ the art is very pretty !!! i loved exotic love's toxicness too looking forward to future manhwas from this author :D i hope we see a different genre soon.
(hikaru + shinobu )
+ sort of enemies? to lovers trope hehe & they were coworkers! one that is popular at work x timid and the complete opposite (but actually has a secret popular side off work!)
+ healthy couple !!!! ik they're already together, but i think they're also in some kind of slow burn~ they still haven't explicitly confessed to e/o so
+ they're dynamic, along with the side characters, was pretty fun to read ^^ i love how supportive their friends are
+ this was actually a reread, and i gotta say, i appreciated it more this time around since the second season gave more life to their relationship
+ i'm looking forward to the next volume (apparently, there's a new volume coming up!) :)) i hope it gets translated soon hehe the art style is amazing, as always!
(luna + nox )
+ might be my new fave het couple ever centuries old vampires !!! and they're madly in love (bonus: they're kinky living on earth for a long period of time can be boring)
+ it's such an interesting story! very unique concept ^^ i wanted this to be even longer but i think the ending fit it pretty well :))
+ the visuals are INSANITY !!! my bisexuality peaked while reading this i can't get enough of how pretty they look !!!!
+ i'm interested in their back stories too,,, like how they became vampires, or how was their life while raising a human baby LIKE GOD i yearn for this couple
+ anyway, i hope we get extras or maybe some official art from the author because i just love their dynamic they're deeply in love with each other :(( oh, to have a love like theirs.
(leo + shin )
+ another childhood friends to lovers! this one sting a bit i'm so glad we had a happy ending after almost 2 years of waiting for updates!
+ mutual pining, yet again! >< they are both just so precious :(( their relationship was so heartwarming. it's so sad that people have these prejudices which made MC anxious of the feelings they had for e/o
+ they broke up for a bit, HOWEVER! they managed to fix it guys !!!! don't worry, it has a sweet ending
+ i love how supportive yukarin is !!!! she is such a queen <3 i'm also happy that the MC got the reassurance he needed from his family ^0^
+ the art style is very pretty & adorable i've always loved how soft and warm this author's characters and story feel it always brings comfort for the readers :>
(hiroki + shintaro )
+ MC who's a convenience store clerk + ML who's a gym instructor >< love at first sight for ML! he's such a simp ISTG SO CUTE
+ i LOVE LOVE their relationship! it was so natural! your typical random strangers who just fell for each other <3
+ the pacing was sooooo good! there was a bit of miscommunication, but they were able to talk about it properly which improved their communication between one another
+ their dates were so adorable :')) i badly wanna see more of their domestic side (╥﹏╥)
+ the art style is gorgeous tooo! this author's works are very wholesome and most of them have healthy relationships too ^^ i'm so obsessed with how realistic this one was
(se-eun + jeongwoo )
+ childhood friends to lovers! mutual pining too it's also set in the province side
+ MC is a bl artist who drew himself along with his long time crush as the MCs of his bl manga the ML is a delivery man in their province!
+ this is a short one, but i think it had a satisfying end :)) they already had a past and all which explains the pacing ^^
+ the side characters are so funny, especially in the side stories !!! i liked the idols universe HAHA lowkey rooting for gyusik for some reason idk why lol he's so goofy
+ the art style was cute! overall, they had a healthy relationship (though they had several misunderstandings in the beginning, they ended up learning to communicate)
(yōu + usui )
+ love at first sight? BIG age gap. quite angsty? a 17-yr old model who became interested with a 29-yr old writer he saw years ago (they saw e/o again at work!)
+ well,,, i was expecting a better execution of the plot but it was a bit confusing and just unrealistic
+ it makes zero sense why the minor ML was so obsessed with the MC though, i don't think this is grooming since the ML was the one who kept forcing himself on the MC lol
+ they became a cute couple towards the end since they finally got to communicate properly. we also saw the ML's character development (but meh,,, i think it was still a bit lacking & bland)
+ the art style is interesting, i like it :)) it wasn't the usual cutesy one it was more on the sharp edges type :)) characters still look pretty though!
(kaede + shinokawa )
+ childhood friends who grew part but eventually had a reencounter as they became neighbors!
+ mutual pining (i think?) though the other one's a big tsundere their dynamic's pretty fun & cute!
+ there was another couple/story in the mix, but i just skimmed through it since it really wasn't my cup of tea
+ overall, i think their relationship was pretty cute :)) i wish we got to see more of them after officially being together, but it was still a good ending!
+ the art style is so adorable! i've always liked this author's art and stories ^0^ this had another healthy relationship
(dohun + yejun )
+ childhood friends to lovers! mutual pining frfr >< one is divorced and the other was single since he was deeply inlove with the former
+ it was short, yet filled with plot! like, ik it's a common trope, but i love the execution
+ i love their backstory, it had some depth even though it was a short one. i love how we got a very satisfying end + extras !!! a wedding too
+ i wish we got to see them move in together though! that would've been so adorbs hehe but they were already pretty domestic anyway :))
+ the art style is so so pretty too !! i hope we get to see more from this author
