❀'s manga / #delinquent(109)

this was really cute, but lacking substance lol. just an enjoyable read with no hard drawn out drama. uke 28, seme 32, something like that. uke wants to be a cop but keeps failing the exam for like the 4th year in a row lol. he sees a newly opened cafe and sees one of the workers sucks at working lol. it's seme who's secretly an ex-gang member. anyway pretty sure the author changed the direction of the story a lot as she worked on it and the art changed a lot too, but for the better. it's sweet how they slowly get to know each other and get together. seme is adorable with how he's dumb and not knowing much about living in the real world lol. at first there's a misunderstanding about them dating or not cuz uke was drunk when they first kissed and thought maybe he dreamed it. also when seme asked him out uke was not listening well and seme was super vague about it. so seme thought thehy were dating now but uke didn't know even though he also liked seme a lot. anyway after that cleared up it was time for seme to come clean to uke about his background. at first he tried to lie and just agree that uke's false assumptions about him are true but uke quickly found out it was a lie lol and uke runs off. but then he still loves seme so he gets tricked into going to see seme by one of seme's underlings and they make up and get together. honestly uke used to be a delinquent so he's pretty okay with it. last drama is this dude from seme's past coming back. some weird complicated tragic backstory but basically he hates seme because he thinks seme betrayed him but seme was actually looking out for him. he makes trouble for uke and gets another guy who hates uke to kidnap him. well it's solved very fast cuz seme had a back-up plan with this dude's half-brother working on his side. and even though uke was kidnapped he was a delinquent and fought against all the men and took them out already when seme arrived to save him lol. and they're talking in the car about living together from now on and seme wants uke to quit working to be a cop lol ofc, but uke's like no way and stuff. just sweet overall and no tiring dramatics which is always nice. problems are solved kinda too fast sometimes, but i'm cool with that.

overall all very cute stories. main story is adult coworkers, two oneshots are high school students. mainly porn, but the little plot is cute cuz the porn is not quite enough to consider dish. so main story is about a superior and seme underling. seme sees how uke is always treated badly and overworked. one night just takes him home and fucks him while uke's drunk lol...... after that they keep fucking and uke realizes he really enjoys it and it helps him relieve stress from work. also having uke around means he's not working as long cuz uke keeps dragging him home lol. just lots of cuteness, uke is kinda tsundere in not expressing his real feelings well, but it's obvious he loves seme a lot cuz he always goes back and asks for more despite earlier protests lol 2nd story is honour student and random loser guy. turns out uke has some voyeurism fetish and likes to take pics of himself jerking in the school bathroom at lunch. seme overhears and gets roped into helping take pics. then pics turn into videos of them having sex. well they turn out to like each other so uke quits that photo taking. lastly is a delinquent uke who is a masochist. seme admired uke for being strong but suddenly uke is not fighting anymore and just letting other guys pick on him. turns out he's a masochist and wants the guys to hit him and he's been going out fucking other guys. seme says let him do it all and so they have sex.

2nd vol now okay but w/e. just this guy who starts seeing red thread of fate connected between him and delinquent seme. but turns out after getting to know seme, he's not bad at all. just likes to look delinquent-y and fought to help someone out. they slowly get closer and eventually uke confesses. seme is surprised but he is open about it and they start dating i think. not even a kiss. uke is glasses super top student who gets oppressed at home by smarter big brother and condescending dad. not my type.

this is so good as a school life fun read. nothing too deep here, but adorable characters and beautiful art chap 1 starts off with them already in a relationship and seme wanting to do it with uke. seme is school council president and uke a delinquent blondie. they're in third year high school and different classes. uke runs away from sex but then approaches seme about it when he's prepared and ready. i think it's great how both sides obviously love the other and aren't afraid to express their feelings. great communication and nobody is crazy having unrealistic jealousy or fits. then in second chap we see the story of how they got together. in second year, teacher asked seme to talk to uke to make uke come to school more. seme is annoyed and just doing it a bit out of obligation so he can say he did it, but then he realizes uke is super cute and wants to get to know him more. so slowly his bothering uke turns them kinda into friends and he spends a lot of time with uke. he even helps uke over the summer to complete their homework. and when uke falls ill and can't turn in the hw, he goes to uke's house to pick them up and bring back to the school. uke's mom is so cute and sweet too. and then at the end of second year, they find out they're going to different classes next year and seme is sad about it. realizes he doesn't want to be apart from uke and confesses. says if uke doesn't hate it it or fight him, he wants them to go out together. and uke doesn't fight so i guess automatic acceptance of dating. then we see them in third year, sneaking around to meet and stuff. seme getting jealous that uke's not jealous he's going to karaoke with friends. but then turns out it's a goukon type party and uke is working at that karaoke place so he does get a bit jealous lol and seme is happy and doesn't push it too far, leaving early. then they get found out having sex at school by some dude who kinda liked seme in admiration but is fine to give up. but this dude under pressure told another guy who was looking for seme. this other guy has a crush on uke and wants them to break up. he confronts uke about the relationship and says uke can count on him to talk about anything. uke's too nice lol and believes him. so uke asks for advice on how to help seme during exam season. uke doesn't want to interfere with seme's academics and future. this dude obviously gives bad advice like telling uke to stay away from seme lol. and it does cause a small rift between them cuz uke uses excuses to stay away from seme and seme is hurt. then he seems uke talking with the other guy and uke won't tell seme what they were talking about, so seme is hurt again. they stop talking for a while after that, cuz uke thinks seme is mad and seme was wanting uke to contact him and exams are happening, so uke doesn't want to disturb seme. idk but no contact until exams end, then seme receives a text from the other guy. this whole time it was sort of implied the guy liked seme, but it's revealed he actually likes uke and he calls seme is love rival lol. uke shows up and and ofc says no he doesn't like this guy cuz he likes seme and they kiss in front of him. i think this is the first time uke's confessed his feelings like this. seme was indeed feeling a little insecure cuz he realized the way they started dating was kinda forced by him lol. anyway, then we see them graduate high school and seme received news he got into his uni of choice and all this good stuff. very cute story overall. i would not say it truly touched me, but it's just excellent quality all around.

weird 3some omegaverse. uke has some chastity belt key that is needed to unlock the chastity belts all omegas wear until 18. alpha seme from another school came to fight him just for fun. beta seme is his close friend and second in command of their delinquent gang. somehow through alpha coming along and trying to get with omega uke, beta's feelings are revealed too. then uke can't choose between them so they keep having 3somes. well only 2 actually. some dumb drama about other gangs come to fight uke to get the key. and alpha is held captive by his own gang members. uke and beta go to save him and they are together happily ever after. though beta and alpha only put up with each other cuz uke wants them both.

kinda bad boy guy and some student council committee member dude who checks rules at the school gates. i think it was supposed to be a oneshot showing bad boy with good guy, but then we got more backstory for them. uke turns out to have had some incestuous thing with his half brother..........gross. and was like a slut or some shit giving him money too.................. anyway traditional story in that uke is fucked up in all sorts of ways but seme is all good and accepting and chasing after him. not bad overall.

6 year age gap, teacher/student. both delinquents, teacher past delinquent. seme gets obsessed with uke after hearing how uke remained undefeated at school. he goes to fight uke and loses. then he wants uke to teach him fighting. along the way he somehow falls in love. honestly this part is not well explained.... and hen uke gets taken hostage cuz ppl want to attack seme. uke can hold is own but then seme comes rushing in. uke calms shit down and takes seme home to tend to his wounds. then seme graduates with them not doing anything but uke knows seme's feelings cuz seme kissed him once. now he's very respectful and uke actually feels a bit lost without seme always up on him lol. at graduation seme gives uke a tie and uke grabs seme's hand to make sure he doesn't go. seme goes on to be a mechanic. we see a year later they have sex for the first time?

tbh they are not in love even at the end?? never confess any feelings, though they do promise to stick with each other forever. delinquent tag cuz seme is a criminal. was. he just got released from prison. uke was trying to summon a demon to help him out of his shit life and debt. he mistook seme for a demon and brought seme home. fed him and slept with him thinking in exchange he'll get his wishes granted. realizes seme is just a human dude and is mad, but then still asks seme to grant his wish of being a friend. after that they live together and seme helps uke get back at some bullies from the past. honestly love how this manga doesn't try to teach dumbass lessons like violence is not the answer lmao. seme goes at them hard and uke appreciates the revenge. then some dude from seme's past turns out offering seme jobs again. seme wants money to help uke repay the debt he got from his dead, but rejects the job cuz he doesn't want to work with this dude again. he goes to a casino to earn a bunch of money instead. when he comes back and gives uke the money, uke thinks seme did something bad to get it. seme is disappointed uke would think that of him and kinda reject him for that reason. uke also tells seme the dude warned uke not to get close to seme. seme goes to tell the dude off and tell him to stay away. dude gives seme a jab and seme passes out. then dude kidnaps uke and tries to tell uke bad things about seme to tear them apart. uke says he'll always stand by seme. seme finds them using a tracker he put in uke's jacket and rescues uke. they ride off together and dude decides to let them go cuz obviously seme doesn't care for him the same way he does for uke. back home, uke thinks seme robbed and killed someone to get the money cuz the dude suggested it to uke. he says he'll run away with seme and he doesn't care if seme did that. but seme reveals it was just casino money lol. honestly super interesting and refreshing story. lots of new takes on common tropes.

honestly weird story with no plot. good art, but characters lack substance. they're childhood friends just recently started dating. a lot of them navigating towards having sex. uke has 2 older bros they consult with. and those brothers even touch uke to show him how to do it...........fucking weird. they finally have sex and it's fine and then they keep doing it. last plot is about ppl hating on uke for looking like a delinquent and tells seme to stop hanging with uke. uke then dyes his hair back to black to stop his looks affecting seme's reputation with teachers and peers in basketball club. weird conclusion message..

tbh idk if it's the translation or the author's panelling skills, but the manga didn't make a lot of sense with the plot and details. it seemed to cram too much info everywhere and didn't flow well. 3 stars for story, but i'm a sucker for delinquents and nice art, so gave 4 overall. they're childhood friends and when uke found out he was an omega, got super upset. seme keeps sleeping around with guys but he likes uke actually. and now in high school idk uke keeps resisting sleeping with seme and being one of his sex friends cuz he doesn't want to lose friendship with seme. i think that's the gist of it, but super convoluted way to tell this story. in the end they fuck a couple times while uke's in heat and it's revealed uke actually likes seme but kept resisting seme cuz of reasons above, didn't want to be one of many sex friends only to be tossed aside later. some weird stuff with their moms living together?? or just staying over?? or they're both uke's mom?? not sure at all.
