So, I know the author as a fanartist long before they started as a BL mangaka. A Haikyuu fanartist, to be exact.
And because they started as a fanartist and doujinshika, their works are so obvious... like, the mangas they make feel too much like a doujinshi.
The no-rule, no-theory, unrealistic aspects in the storybuilding... like they just put in whatever they want, whatever they like, all their kinks, and not really care where the story goes and whether it makes sense or not, just as long as it's smutty and they're satisfied while making it......
I have followed them since a long time ago and always love their drawings, but that doesn't mean I'd love the stories they make, too.
To me, as a storyteller and a writer, this story is just sooo fucking ... hhhh I can't even find a word to describe it.
Just nope. Really, nope. I don't get how a story like this could pass the editorial and get published. (Well, no matter the story, BL has a huge market so maybe that's that....)
Anyways, If you're looking for a good read, this is a complete time wasting.
Harsh, I know, I'm sorry....
Sorry I accidentally liked!! (╬￣皿￣)凸
I enjoyed the story and I think everyone should read it
Also I have no fucking clue what this person was trying to say ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I agree, the art's amazing. It really is, which is why I clicked it in the first place but the story is so-so. It's a decent read if you're after the smut, but story alone is not memorable.
We simply aren't the target audience I suppose. Doesn't mean I wouldn't read their other works tho, cause I believe y'never know what you'll get less y'dive into it
LOOOL
You know, I did get a sense that this felt kinda like a doujinshi...
Maybe the artist is still trying to figure out what their writing style is and this is one of her first new works...?
^ This, they could still be in the experimental stage (works in this stage are still not the best, plot-wise.) Their work still deserves to be given a chance cause it does have potential. But if they are trying to pursue this type of quick read smut, that's perfectly fine too
Imagine had the audacity to critique somebody works on illegal site. LoL
So, I'm here again, suddenly in the mood to read this after more than a year.... And it's still not updated. Why :(((
I've been reading this since vol.1 was released and dying to read the continuation, its one of my favorites
I'm rooting for them. Makes me sad reading the spoilers..........
It's rare for me to actually like both of the main characters. This manga is just *that* good hhhhhh........ I'm so sad :"((((
Interesting, original, not cliche BL plot? Check.
Goddamn Beautful Art? Check.
Unique, uncommon, and realy cool character personalities? Check.
Relatable, realistic, and not cringey BL story? Check.
P E R F E C T I O N? CHECK!
Yes, this manga is *that* good, everyone. It's a must read. Other works by Suzumaru Minta are worth to read, as well!
Damn, this manga is so good.
At first, I kinda disliked Gaku because he constantly made the uke "dirty" when he actually can teach him with better ways, like a more fatherly figure teaching his son because Himari doesn't get that, but this is a BL, so... yeah. But turned out he's not a bad guy (HE'S SUPER GENTLE IM SHOCKED) and things turned out good for Himari, too, eventually, so I'm glad and now I ship them so hard dksdjaksajjds. This is definitely one of my favorites! A thousand compliments for the author!!! （/TДT)/
I'm gonna buy this and the Drama CD as well after I have some money ┗( T﹏T )┛
(Addition) THE LAST EXTRA CHAPTER AAAHHHHHH LOVE IT SO MUCH DJDKSSSGAKJ
LOL I FORGOT I've written a simple review since weeks ago but then my data reached its limit so I just post this now lol.
AAAHHHH THE ART IS SO BEAUTIFUL, LIKE EVERY STROKED LINE IS DRAWN HEARTFULLY!!!
AAAAAAHHHHHHHH YOSHINO IS ALSO TOO BEAUTIFUL (and erotic though he doesn't realize it himself), I CAAANNNN'TTTTTTT!!!!!
Just--- AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

(yes I even customized this emoticon myself because this expression isn't on the options)
This is kinda random, but Ch.3 page 9, the driver must be coach Ukai from Haikyuu!! lmaooo ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Exactly what I thought!!!!!!!!!!
THATS WHAT I THOUGHT TOO
OMG YAS
Wow, damn. That was really good!!!
Honestly, people, I love this much more than Solo Leveling. It has something deeper and cleverer than Solo Leveling. Probably the concept, the logic, and the balance between protagonist's up and down moments. And of course, the narrative! The storytelling itself has a really good pace and well-plotted already. But pair it up with a good narration... BANG! The quality level shoots higher, immediately.
I don't know how many times I gritted my teeth, punched my pillow, kicked the air, even let out weird screeching sounds JUST because of the narration. And it has only been 13 chapters!
*Sigh* ... I never liked any isekai-ish RPG-ish stories before, because the system is too convenient and most of them are lacking in logical terms.
I'm a fan of classic high fantasy stories, y'know. With high stakes, earned abilities through times and sufferings, and all that realistic shit; not some hologram windows randomly pop out and instant level up, etc., etc..
But this one is insane. I just ... hands down, I LOVE THIS SO MUCH.
Seriously, for me, this is so much more exciting and interesting to read than the so-famous Solo Leveling. Highly recommended!
P.s. I don't usually ship non-BL characters, but damn, why do I ship and root for Dokja and Joonghyuk so hard?!?! Dhskskshsksksh probably because their character dynamic is on a whole different level: "I liked him, disliked him, hated him, and cheered for him. I was with him for 3000 chapters."
Daaaannnggg!! Ain't that the most romantic shit ever, ugh!!!
So, in short, this is an RPG version of Hunger Games....
Whoa, this is sooo goood!
I love this kind of smut, with no needless, cringey dirty talk or disgusting sex scenes. This is more towards aesthetic erotica.
Not only hot and sexy, the feelings are also thick! My heart beats faster reading this. And the beautiful art! Gawd! It's not easy to find anatomically correct josei smut with art style that doesn't disgust me, and the dreamy art style in this manga fits the story so well.
Seriously, it's hard to find somehing like this here. :(
And the first story is definitely older woman x younger man, right? Fits my taste even more!
Anyways, it's highly recommended guys! Thank you for the scanlation group for doing this project!
I agree sooooo hard. Do you have any recommendations that are in a similar style of quality? I am just so done with cringy unrealistic josei Mangas, I want to read more stuff like this where there is acrual attraction and no rapey cringy abuse thats being romanticized
Yo, just wanna inform everyone, this is not a manhwa. It's Indonesian webtoon. Looking at the tags and the comments, seems like many people misunderstood.
I KNEW IT!!!
Kizu Natsuki sensei's stories feel so much like something a Cancer would write! So heavy with emotions and heartbreakingly beautiful
And it's possible how her fondness towards Oikawa begun from the relatability, because Oikawa also feels so much like a Cancer (and is actually one!).
Ahh, anyways, I'm just grateful she exists in this world, and I get to live in the same era as her. Her stories are breathtaking. I love her works, her soul, and all the sincerity she puts into each one of her stories....
Just— Daaaammmnn.... I can never be not in awe everytime I talk about Kizu Natsuki sensei
