Super Secret

Complete | Eon | 2000 released

super secret? More like super CUTE! Just very sweet, heartfelt, romantic and Hilarious. And like ghost wife it starts to embrace a hint of melancholy in the back half that works rly well (without losing its sense of humor). And unlike ghost wife this is an unequivocal happy ending that feels very wrapped up but not in an obnoxious Perfect Bow way. that said the side character's endings were perhaps a bit Too open ended. more in some cases than others, and thats my only gripe tho i understand why the author chose to do this. but otherwise this a Perfect friends to lovers romance with a really cute fantastical twist involving werewolves, witches, fox demons and vampires!

is the anime better? yes. (its more ambitious for one). but this manga still slaps and its still hella gay. so A+ (there's some big gaps in my memory though so i only gave it 4 out of 5 but its a 5 out of 5 in my Heart)

this is like a modern fairytale in the vein of Tim Burton (but less goth..y) and Guillermo del Toro (but less grotesque). To give an idea of the tone. And as for The story itself, you’ll see elements of tarzan, frankenstein, the shape of water and to a lesser extent pinocchio (he just wants to be a Real Boy! This can actually apply two characters in the main cast...) and dare i say a smidge of edward scissorhands? I do want to be clear though, its small elements that add a sense of what kind of story you’re in without feeling derivative or cliche at all. Perhaps the greatest achievement of this comic though is it somehow brought out serious pathos from a character that is a Talking Bird. (anyway i loved this so much pls read it)

Classic BL Theater

Complete | Byeol,Bo | 2019 released

oh my gad this is HILARIOUS. i've only read the first story (i love a good anthology tbh) which is a bonkers take on the popular korean folktale of Chunhyang. i wont summarize it here, if u dont know it you must go wiki or google it cause knowing it will allow to appreciate how hysterical that first story is. the sex scenes are short but nice. i gotta say the story kept giggling enough that i wouldnt have noticed if there was no sexy times at all. EDIT: well finished it (all chpt now available in eng on tappytoon). and it was delightful from start to finish. definitely liked some stories more than others but i did enjoy the variation in size and shape among the tops and the bottoms and funny and not always obvious way the writer would spin each fairytale or folktale in her attempts to make then funnier and super gay. anyway def recommend it!

Akage no Nyanko to Mori no Banken

the japanese furries are at it again yall (and the amount of stupid puns omg. i bet the original japanese is full of way mroe than the localization team even bothered to try to translate tho i dont blame them.) anyway even tho its SUPER silly. it is also Problematic. lots of dubcon. so u know...be aware of that. its hard to be too mad about it when the reasoning is SO absurd and the setting so fantastical and unlike our world. but some people have hard lines about that either way. anyway, as far as TL mangas go its not so bad so far and i appreciate it doesnt take itself seriously at all. and if u like urself some gap moe in ur dude leads well he's got two modes. sweet obediant and very helpful husband material and then wild red eyed beast who fucks and fucks hard lol. seems to be a common kink in these kinds of mangas....

i loved this and it was super hot, the art is gorgeous and im SO upset that it ended so quickly. i hope this lady makes more stuff. im watching her page on bomtoon just in case...(also there was enough plot to make me want to read more beyond hot sex scenes...too bad ;_;)

My Raw Love Life with a Male Demon

this is so silly and so wholesome and also rly smutty at the same time. its about as light a read as u can get but it doesnt leave a bad taste in my mouth like some other porn with barely a plot that i can name rn...istg the mangakas put way more effort into even the dumbest BLs than any TL manga i've seen so far. and ive seen alot now. (also why are the actually interesting looking guys always in the yaoi and not in the het stuff? conversely i find myself gravitating to the japanese bl more these days cause there's a bit more variation in body types and appearance than there is in the korean bl webtoons. altho there's some great bl webtoons. at least there's also some great josei style smutty webtoons too.....japan pls..where is ur good het smut? i KNOW it exists!!! so WHERE IS IT?). anyway go ahead and read this if ur bored and want a giggle with ur fap material idk.

i love this SO SO MUCH. its a great mix of actually funny, actually sexy and actually! romantic. like damn triple threat. the premise is also pretty creative and fun. the art is great. as far as BL goes its not burdened with annoying Straight Gaze-y type tropes and if its possible i would rec getting ahold of the BLCD because it only adds to the greatness of this series. (im so sad its over)

well i read it on renta over 2 months ago and still remember most of it and that is high praise cause most of these silly one volume BL mangas i forget what happens in them after 2 days. sometimes...2 hours. but not this one! its not deep or anything but its fun and sweet. i always enjoy fantasy elements in my silly smut too. anyway if u like anything with incubi, demons, magic, cute otherworldly beings, supernatural comedy hijinks etc then this is for u. also its another one of those mangas that has a nice mix of wholesome and spicy. (didnt love the art tho)
