❀'s manga / #BEST(120)

uke gets drugged by duke who is obsessed with him but spends the night with seme, the crown prince. uke doesn't remember anything upon waking, but finds out 4 months later that he is pregnant. apparently royal family men can impregnate both men and women. overall great story, i actually skimmed it again now that official translations are out. i will say the ending feels a bit rushed, with them suddenly marrying and having the kid and uke finding out the truth in the last chapter........ anyway, after uke finds out he's pregnant, he goes to talk to seme about catching a serial killer cuz they're both knights. seme has been ignoring him, so uke goes to a ball to catch seme. seme agrees to help in return for kissing and sex and w/e. he says uke resembles someone precious who escaped him. lol uke resembles uke. so this goes on and they are investigating. uke falls in love with seme through their time spent together. they find out the killer is the duke that likes uke. duke killed first person in rage when uke stood him up that night after the ball. after that he's been covering his tracks by hiring more ppl to kill in a similar manner. uke also gets kidnapped and is nearly killed but seme comes to the rescue. after that seme makes uke rest and he plans their wedding in secret lol..... uke finds out after he leaves rest and is happy to marry actually...... but he still doesn't know the child is seme's. seme isn't telling uke cuz he thinks uke hates him and will abort the child if he finds out it's seme's........ honestly this misunderstanding part is so weird. they were acting all lovey dovey with each other but neither apparently thinks the other likes them.............. well all comes out when child comes and looks exactly like seme. and a woman tells uke that if he hadn't shown up that night of the ball, it would be her with child right now........ so now uke knows the kid is seme's. he goes to confront seme why he never said anything. and seme says he thought uke didn't like him, will abort his child, but uke is like no i love you want to stay together forever. end. we get an extra that's so dumb. uke gets drugged again and seme to the rescue and they fuck. uke says he loves seme a lot while drugged and seme is happy, but then uke not so affectionate while sober...... wtf this extra was not sweet at all. i don't understand why uke won't just say his feelings honestly cuz that tsundere shit ain't even his personality.

really loved all the small details of this carefully thought out story. there's some travel through parallel universes as uke sorts through his feelings. love both characters a lot! a strict wild seme who is actually sweet to his lover and wants to hide his mean side. an expressionless uke that only seme can read. and seme had some weird stuff with his mom leaving when young. but turns out she didn't do it cuz she hated the family??? weird at the end what happened with that, but overall super interesting story. basically there's a fortune teller who sells them stones. when they get wet at the same time, uke travels to a parallel universe where seme doesn't like him and where he's dating a female coworker. he happens to get back just as seme in the original universe is desperate and not sure what to do. doesn't sound like much but so much detail, really impressive manga.

wow super loved this one! beautiful art and love a rivalry to love story. high school rivals who really respect each other now rivals in the workplace. somehow seme challenges uke to a battle to see who can make the other fall in love first. but turns out seme's actually been in love with uke since high school. they have sex and kiss here and there, but seme refuses to do penetrative sex until after uke admits he likes seme. uke finds himself falling for seme and doesn't know what to do. he doesn't want to admit it cuz that'll mean he loses the game. at the end there's one point where seme pulls away cuz he thinks he's got no chance and they should end the bet and their friendship. but ofc uke misses seme and seme misses him too. they meet up and reconcile and their true feelings come out and they get together! though their rivalry still continues at work.

wow loved this story a lot, though was put off by the cover for a long time. really lives up to its fame. seme is 22 and uke is like 36. seme is super broke and needs cash. as he's wandering around at night trying to find a job, he comes across a gay rent boy place thing. he's standing there looking at it and uke approaches asking if he's an employee. at first seme is like wtf but then realizes uke is willing to pay and he's hungry, so he says he works there and takes uke off to a restaurant. uke then pays for his meal and pays for his time and he goes home with 50k yen so he's real pleased. seme and uke continue to meet, going on dates but no sex cuz seme's not into that shit since he's always been straight and uke can kind of sense it. uke is a really meek guy, but seme's the kinda wild type. they go shopping for clothes and seme picks out new outfits to uke. uke also buys seme a bunch of stuff and gives him money for his time. this goes on until seme kinda starts thinking he could fuck uke or something? idk but uke goes away on vacation for a bit and seme is totally mad and jealous he could be with someone else. uke was just alone though and seme in a rage brings uke to a hotel and kinda forces uke to have sex??? but he only fingers uke. uke looks kinda happy but kinda reluctant and i can't read his expressions well. idk if he thinks he doesn't deserve it or something idk but he's obviously uncomfy. after that when they meet up they also end up having sex, from just touching to straight up real sex cuz seme's been getting hard while fingering uke. and seme is really starting to like uke and giving uke discounts when they meet. eventually he's like they should just date and he'll move in with uke and it'll be for free and he's going to get a real job. uke is happy and confesses and everything seems great. but fucking next day seme is out with his friends at night drinking and partying. when he sees the sunrise in the morning, he sends a pic to uke and uke can't help but pick up and see. seme calls him cuz he sees uke read it so early in the morning and uke confesses he's about to commit suicide. all the money he had given seme was his life savings and he had no more money. seme tries to talk him down but uke has been determined for a long time and jumps. fucking crashes 11 stories and survives somehow after dropping on top of a car.... fast forward half a year, uke comes out of the hospital and goes to stay with his aunt and uncle a bit. he happens to see seme and they have a talk. uke says he's probably going to the countryside to help his granduncle with farming cuz he's got nothing in the city anymore. seme is reluctant to let him go but uke's made up his mind and does it anyway. honestly uke is all meek and shit but he's pretty selfish too... we think seme's playing him but in the latter half he has seme around his pinky as he does his own stuff. well makes sense he needs some time to heal physically and mentally though. anyway, 5 years later seme has started working as a programming intern at a small company with friends. he gets called by uke to meet up and he goes. uke says he's just in town for a day and thought he wanted to meet seme cuz he couldn't forget him. he tried but still kept remembering when he saw the beautiful sky and stuff idk so when he came to the city he called seme up. seme is happy to see uke and agrees to date, though joked he has a bf now lol. anyway, super cute to see balance in their power dynamic. after that they go to a hotel and just spend time together before uke needs to go back to the farm. honestly super great story with exceptional depth of plot for a bl manga.

really loved the plot pacing and characters in this one. uke was just a little dumb about rejecting seme despite having feelings, but he got over it quick. nothing dragged on too much. maybe a little too much sex, but overall better than 99% of manhwa i've read lol. the side stories is another couple from the story, and that's really great too. so they're a boyband with 7 members. seme only listens to uke cuz he is attracted to uke and uke helped him not get in trouble before. now they've debuted and uke kinda is his keeper or idk the word. but they ask uke to look out to make sure seme isn't hooking up and getting into trouble. and somehow one drunken night uke is the one who can't hold back and comes onto seme??? seme is kinda drunk and doesn't remember well, but memories slowly come back and he's sure uke came onto him and they fucked. afterwards they kinda have a fuck buddy relationship with some rules uke made cuz seme really pissed him off and hurt him with how often he was forcing uke to have sex. and seme didn't want to lose uke, so he readily agreed to the rules. so they keep going and seme thinks it's obvious they ilke each other and they act like they're dating, just no kissing per the rules. he wants to show uke he's serious about dating but uke is like afraid to ruin the group if they date for real. some turmoil about dating and he just hurts himself by insisting they do fuck buddies only. in the end seme gets him to come around and they exchange rings and get together for real. awesome that the story didn't end with them getting together. we see the band coming to accept their relationship slowly and their boss giving them their own dorm and stuff like that. 8 years after their debut, they disband and move to scotland to marry and be together! honestly really cute, but the uke is a little meh weak. extra stories about two other band members who like each other. uke is older by 4 years and always took care of seme. uke has some trauma from the past where a guy who liked him got his career ruined for being discovered as gay and then hung himself. uke can't really get past that and didn't have relationships. now some years after the group disbanded he's still singing solo and seme came back from military to act and model. they meet up and seme starts getting jealous cuz uke now has a gf. but the gf knows uke doesn't really like her and she proposes breaking up after. uke is torturing himself about hurting the ppl who like him and won't accept that seme likes him cuz he doesn't want something to happen to seme.......that bad uke logic of pushing away the seme despite obviously mutual feelings. anyway he gets over it after a week or so and they start dating. really great they don't have sex right away and seme respects uke a lot. uke starts getting impatient actually lol.

AMAZING. VOTED BEST BECAUSE ONE OF THE CHARACTERS IS A DOBERMAN. AHHHHHHHHASDIFJASIOJES so seme starts working at the dog food division of his company to help train the sales team there. he finds out all the ppl are actually werewolf descendants who can turn into dogs. he is scared of dogs at first but gets used to it. he helps train the sales guys there to speak more comfortably with customers. characters from the first book in this universe make an appearance here. somehow seme and the manager of this division, A DOBERMAN, fall in love with each other?? honestly not too sure. uke tells seme about his past and they get close. seme originally supposed to go back to hq location, but uke writes they really need seme so he gets to stay there!! and they live happily ever after together. super cute, no sex. we see in the extra more about couple from first volume.

SO CUTE. HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR AND 29 YEAR OLD BUSINESS MAN. STUDENT TRIES TO GET THE MAN A DATE TO STOP BEING A VIRGIN AND THEY SLOWLY FALL IN LOVE. JESUS SO CUTE AND THE WAY THEY KISSED AND HAD SEX THE FIRST TIME WAS SO REALISTICALLY FLAWED AND CUTE. LOVE IT

really lovely main story! kuudere seme picks up uke who is homeless. they start living together despite seme being kinda put off by it but he remains totally expressionless. uke starts coming onto him and still he's like no i don't want more lol. anyway uke is hurt by all that and by seme's refusal to call him by name. so after he finds a part time job, he plans to move out. but seme actually realizes he likes uke and goes to talk to him and invite him back. also great is the decensored dicks. original bar censor was easy to edit i guess. oneshot is about uke who confessed to his chem teacher in last year of middle school. teacher told him to come back as an adult if he still feels the same years later. uke becomes teacher and starts working at seme's school. then he kinda doubts what seme said all those years ago but seme is like no i did mean i like you. something like that and they have sex right there. i think uke 24, seme is 37.

this was super cute and great! love a mature romance. seme and uke became friends at a football game and seme developed feelings for uke. he kisses uke one night after they hang out and uke is kinda freaked. but he goes back to see seme and says he still wants to be friends. so they try to be keep being friends and go to see a football game together like usual. but now uke realizes seme is looking at him all soft and sweet lol and uke feels weird. he kinda tells seme to stop that, but seme ofc can't and they both get upset. next day uke is sick and seme comes over to see what happened and help him out. while sleep talking, uke talks about how their friendship relationship thing is confusing him. seme suddenly decides this means he should break off all contact........and blocks uke. uke goes to see seme at his shop again lol and uke is like fucking we need to talk so come to my place later. seme shows up and uke kinda says they should try to go out to see cuz uke doesn't want to lose seme completely from his life. seme apologizes for blocking uke and they kiss and touch each other. very sweet honestly how embarrassed they both are! and in the extra we see them try to go all the way lol

really great story of mature adults falling in love in a realistic way! honestly great in every way except uke smokes..... uke is 32, seme 28. seme works to service the vending machines at uke's work place. uke has had a crush on seme for a while now. they kinda start talking and i guess seme starts seeing something in him too, so hands uke his business card with his personal line contact username on the back. they start talking and planning to eat together and then seme confesses he wants to date for real. uke kinda of hesitates cuz it's his first time dating though he's always known he's gay. then seme thinks uke's not interested and backs off. he also sees uke often paying with his cellphone strap that he says was a gift from someone and seme gets a bit jealous about it. well turns out seme got it for him inadvertently when he gave uke a drink one time and that's why uke treasures it so much. seme was jealous for nothing. really appreciate the slow natural progression of the relationship here.
