YaoiHands's manga / #cute(119)

Set in the US, a lovely strong from a popular novel! A gay romance involving werewolves and (reverse) racism! Surprise, but not really, the Native American MC’s mom doesn’t like white people, but her son fancies blonde hair and blue eyes. Being a werewolf isn’t the main focal point of the story and I enjoy that. It’s refreshing that they are both werewolves, not one human trying to learn of a newfound existence. .Instead the plot focuses on their relationship and fated mates and the acceptance between themselves and within their family and friends. I love how quickly Chay (Native American) was so accepting of his mate being a guy. As for looks, he was spot on, so that was a bonus, but to deny the feeling of your mate was against his better judgement (for both of them really). I will like to add on that I thought it was strange af that even though Chay’s mom doesn’t like white folks, she named her kid one of the whitest American names I’ve ever heard and I think his middle name is Montgomery. Lol and many of the names of the other Native Americans (including werewolves) are very white or weird white American names like Tina, Bobby, and Keaton (Chay’s white lover, also a very strong werewolf, but doesn’t care. He came out to his family and left because they wouldn’t accept him). I am not sure if it’s just names the author thought white people had in America or they weren’t sure if Native American names were ok to use. Idk, but it’s funny and honestly took some getting used to.

He’s able to read minds and finds out that a quiet jr really, really, really likes him. Super cute. If it was long and more in depth it had the potential to be a favorite for me.

Two stories, connected but not significant in connection. First story: doctor finds a man passing out with a fever on his way home. Finds out he works in real estate in the same giant building complex as himself. The real estate agent comes off mean but does that to protect himself due to a past relationship. He’s actually super nice and considerate. The doctor helps him with those issues. Second story: IT worker is confused why this American new hire transfer keeps saying that he likes him. During a dinner they share the worker explains how a certain client made him uncomfortable because they were overly touchy and doesn’t want to meet them alone again. American guy is like, sorry can’t make it with you. Turns out he was undercover with the FBI and trying to catch these guys who produce a drug. They tried to get the worker to become apart of it and gave him a small dose and was gonna literally fuck him up and blackmail him to work for them.

Can’t remember much other than the boss can’t taste sweet things, but of course with this guy he is able to. I had stopped reading and just never caught up. I may pick this back up again.

A magical door connecting two rooms from two different areas in Korea. Both boys are lonely, one moves frequently thanks to his parents work, and the other was forced to live in the countryside for his grandmothers health. Such a cute story

Oh I absolutely adore this sooo much! The historical accuracy and importance (I say accuracy based on the translators notes which I am SO grateful for btw) I love that the romance isn’t overly done-AT ALL. It’s still there, hinted at, but the plot focuses on the resistance and a poor girl who got caught up in it. It’s so good. Now here comes the drama. But omg, it is so well done! I know it has many more chapters to go, almost halfway done at this point. I had to look it up on the naver website, I was so excited. I haven’t been this excited about a romantic hetero plot since the Fruits Basket remake! Lol
