❀'s manga / #adult(1219)

they both do judo. seme admired uke for a long time and wrote him letters, giving them to him through uke's mom who was their coach. one day seme approaches uke in person to talk to him, but then causes seme an injury when seme prevents him from a fall. seme quits judo after that and becomes a teacher at his family's dojo. seme comes to teach at this dojo after years and becoming national champion. now they're like 27 and 30 i think, uke being older. seme jerks off to uke after a drunken night and uke sees it. after that they kinda have a sexual relationship. then uke starts liking seme for real. but when he confesses, seme kinda pulls back. uke is like wtf and goes after seme. turns out seme found out from uke's mom that uke quit judo after the injury and now seme blames himself. uke actually wanted to quit judo anyway so he's not mad about it, he's actually kinda glad. and in the end they get together.

they're friends in high school. both like each other. seme doesn't realize it yet but uke does. they lose contact after graduation cuz uke wants to forget these feelings. 8 years later they meet again on the job. uke is photographer and seme is stylist. somehow they start a friends with benefits thing. both like each other but neither moving the relationship forward. then uke stops responding again. seme doesn't accept that and contacts uke through friends and then they have a party for the friend and uke gets drunk. seme confesses his love while uke is passed out. uke hears it and thinks it's a dream and confesses back. then uke realizes it's real. they fuck. then next morning they get together for real. i am kinda confused about the timeline cuz they say it's 8 years since they last met when they meet again. but then later seme says it's been 15 years since he's liked uke. and now they're in their 30s.... mehh idk

cute story with minimal drama between the leads. they are working together to take down an external enemy. uke is a writer working on lyrics for seme's first solo album. but then this other bitch takes credit for uke's lyrics. uke's sister posts online about the injustice and the company who backs the bitch is not happy. seme wants to see who is right and makes uke stay in his house to write lyrics. along the way they get together. first seme was only doing it with uke to give him some love experience so he could write love lyrics. then i guess they both like each other. more shit with the bitch trying to take credit for uke's lyrics and a misunderstanding between them that the bitch created. but then seme comes to talk to uke and figures out what's going on and he solves it. and they get back together again cuz uke realized seme isn't that kind of guy to use him and he trusts seme over that bitch.

this author always has nice dialogue, but the art is too scratchy. i get the style, but it's like too basic.... anyway, story is about ceo of long standing ceramics company, 3rd gen in his family, and a tax auditor. they met when auditor, who works for government, came to audit and make the company pay back taxes. after that nothing happened until new years when seme sees uke standing alone at a shrine. somehow he knows uke got stood up and invites uke to come hang with seme's friends. uke agrees and then seme hits on uke and kisses him. turns out uke has some issue where he faints from romantic/sexual contact. but then seme is the only one who can kiss and touch him without uke fainting. so they keep doing it. uke actually has a kinda sad history and he says he slept with men cuz even if he faints, he can be a hole to fuck.... ofc seme was like no don't do that. and they have a cute dynamic. seme is very obviously pursuing uke at first. but uke loves him too. ceo plays himself off like a dummy, but he isn't actually. there's some drama with a dude at ceo's company stealing from the company that uke catches. seme gives him another job at a subsidiary instead of firing for some reason, i guess that's japanese custom.... and the dude messes with them by spreading rumours in a magazine, putting uke's job at risk. but after investigation they find no wrong doing, ofc, and everything's fine with uke's job and they stay together ofc. it's an okay story, but idk not into this uke so much. this type of troubled uke who gets pursued and is kinda tsundere.

some messed up shit that doesn't even really make sense. seme likes uke, obsessed with him. seme writes songs for the pop group they're in, but uke is taking the credit cuz his dad is ceo. seme is okay with it, but uses the opportunity to blackmail uke cuz uke feels bad. he forces uke to have sex. and he is cruel to uke, but somehow uke starts to like seme. and this is seme's way of showing love?? but then as always in these japanese mangas, uke can't stand living a lie anymore and does a press conference to confess he's not the writer. but everything still works out okay somehow and in the end they're together and somehow still doing music.

they were kinda enemies in middle/high school cuz seme was discipline committee leader and uke was a delinquent. now they meet again and seme is a cop. it's kinda messy but seme forces himself into uke's life while he works on a case involving another guy who is kinda an underling of uke. though uke no longer does the delinquent stuff. anyway shit happens and they get together. turns out they loved each other all along, all these years.

this manhwa is nice that even though it's kind of low quality in story and character depth. but it doesn't take itself seriously and it leans into being cheesy sometimes. the romance between uke and seme isn't well developed at all. uke's just been a hardcore fan of seme for years. but unclear how seme falls for him, maybe just cuz uke is so supportive and loving and cute lol. also despite the not interesting story, the pacing and everything is pretty good. basically seme used to be popular idol in a duo but due to scandal, went into retirement and started entertainment company. he is debuting an idol group but one of the guys is super stuck up and rude so seme removes him from the group lineup. then they need to find a replacement on short notice and uke is selected. he as the looks and he has a great singing voice. he used to be an idol trainee cuz he wanted to chase after seme, but then quit when seme quit and became seme's secretary instead. seme promises to grant uke's wish if uke becomes an idol. uke just wanted to spend an evening listening to seme sing and hanging out with his idol as his wish. but seme takes it the wrong way and thinks uke wants to spend the night doing naughty stuff. anyway, uke debuts with the group and gets drunk celebrating and he does it with seme while drunk. i guess he's cool with it and they have a physical relationship for a while. meanwhile drama is happening with seme's ex idol partner. he's an evil guy who blackmailed seme and he has a long history of sexually and physically abusing others and stealing others' work for himself and his company. uke and some others come out against that dude. also seme and other company heads team together to sue the guy. and online people make posts telling their stories about what the evil dude did and it goes viral. and justice is brought upon him. then it is just cute fluff, they have a company wide concert so seme performs again with uke on stage and he loves that people are still fans of him. it is honestly really nice that in this story, seme has weak sides. he is shown crying and uke is the emotionally strong one comforting him. i think it's really nice that he's not the invincible type that we often seme characters being.

FUCK IT'S NOT COMPLETED. I read chap 6 and uke is only starting to get feelings. man this story is so dull and boring though. fem uke. even the yakuza seme is so boring and typical and doesn't show much yakuza side. and makes no sense why he suddenly loves uke after uke was his doctor to save his leg when he broke it. seme had a string of penis piercings which was kinda cool, but never mentioned again....

this is complete on bato real tearjerker, especially since mc dies at the end, but i guess it's okay since he was just old.... basically they are researchers who can clone humans. uke likes seme. seme also likes him back but uke doesn't know. so when he hears seme is engaged, uke creates a clone of seme. he plans to take the clone away and live out the rest of his life with seme's clone. seme discovers uke's plan when he finds his clone. he switches places with the clone and goes with uke, while his clone marries his fiancee and takes over his job. the story is told as a flashback, a story the uke tells a little girl. AND FUCK WHEN UKE FINISHES THIS STORY HE FUCKING HAS A HEART ATTACK AND DIES WTFFFFFFFFFF WHY THE FUCK DID HE HAVE TO DIE FUCK. and seme wanted to tell uke he was the real seme before uke died, but didn't get the chance, but it's okay cuz seme finds a letter uke wrote to him about how uke realized it was the real him and how he loves him. fucking depressing. not enough romance and seeing them spending their years together.

uke is a top but he's bad at sex. now he's got trauma after some dudes tell him he sucks. seme comes to offer him lessons in sex. it's just seme fucking uke. then uke tries to use the newly learned skills but he still sucks so he comes back to seme and gets fucked again. and this time seme demands uke go out with him. it's so uncomfortable at the end cuz uke looks so unwilling to go out and seme is like controlling him ugh.
