❀'s manga / #slow relationship(468)

seme is a voice actor. uke is a high school student. uke is a huge fan of seme's voice, but doesn't realize seme who comes to the convenience store where he works part time is the voice actor he loves. one day uke's phone is stomped on during a fight. he's a delinquent lol. he needs money to buy a new phone so his manager at work introduces him to another job doing housework for seme. at first uke is kinda reluctant cuz seme treats him a bit rudely at the store, but he needs money. he soon sees some rare merch of the character he loves and asks seme how he got it. seme gives those to him and says he's the voice actor and voices some lines. uke loves it ofc. they get closer and seme kisses uke. uke runs away. then he remember that they used to know each other when uke was in elementary school and seme was in high school. he loved seme's voice when seme read books to him at his mom's cafe. he told seme he should be a voice actor and seme really did. seme really appreciated uke since back then and tried to find uke, but uke's mom's cafe closed down after uke's mom died. anyway, present day seme confesses his feelings and uke ofc accepts and they are happily together. some softcore sex in the extra.

amazing, fucking love it! great depth to these characters, cute storyline involving everyday life and not just the relationship between the two! uke becomes a teacher cuz he was shy in school and got kinda picked on by students and no teacher helped him. a teacher even started joining in on the teasing... he wanted to be a teacher that would stand up for the shy kids and take care of them. he keeps a social personality in front of the kids at school cuz he doesn't want to become an outcast teacher. but it's so convincing that lots of students confess to him and everyone thinks he's a playboy. one night seme invites him out to a community bbq. uke is reluctant but can't refuse and go. he is so uncomfortable and acts through it. seme takes him home and they live next to each other in the teacher dorms. uke starts crying on the bed when seme goes to get him some water. seme asks him what's wrong and in his drunken state, uke spills out all his feelings about school and being a teacher. then seme kisses him and tries to go further, but uke says he's a virgin so seme holds back lol. next morning seme is still there, making breakfast for uke. and now seme knows uke is a huge anime fan cuz of all the merch at his house. uke is kinda bewildered by their kissing and touching last night, but thinks seme might have done it just to help him relax and fit in??? anyway at school uke starts glancing at seme more. seme sees him and invites him out to do more stuff together. uke says he's not good with crowds, so seme says ok no prob, let's just do shit with only us two lol. seme starts dragging uke all around the small town, seeing local sights. then he invites uke on a trip he's doing with his school club, the geology club. and uke is kinda interested in geology cuz of the anime he likes, so he agrees to go. after that uke says he doesn't want to go out, only wants to do stuff at home with them two lol. and seme's cool with it, but it escalates to more touching and kissing. uke asks seme what is going on like do you like me. and seme kinda stares and doesn't reply, so uke gets shy, runs out, and avoids seme. then some students come to visit them at their teacher dorms. they make them go back, but first making sure they don't take the forest path where some creeps were reported. that kinda breaks the tension between them and seme says he thought about uke's question and now he's sure he likes uke. but uke thinks seme likes a false version of himself, where he's a model teacher and uke doesn't think that's his real self, so kinda pushes seme away. last thing they do is kinda cringe imo. seme knows the teacher that kinda bullied uke back in highschool cuz that teacher was later seme's teacher. seme calls him up and they go to see him. he tries to make excuses for himself but seme pushes back and in the end he admits he only joined in on the teasing cuz he didn't want the students to hate him. so fucked... and i guess uke feels better receiving this apology and explanation from the teacher. they go back home and uke says he also likes seme in the car. they rush home to have sex..... and then they're together i guess. lots of cute moments in the extras showing them afterwards at school and their cute interactions.

hero x villain type story. seme is a villain whose ppl like ugly appearances. he's handsome and hides behind an ugly mask. he was often fighting uke's group of heros, but he fell for uke and now just follows uke around spending time instead of fighting. uke resists it but then allows seme to stay at his house...... then seme gets in trouble with his organization for slacking. uke and his team go to get seme out of the jail they put him in. they get together happily after.

quite a compelling story. near masterpiece, but a bit too stereotypical of a story. nothing unexpected, but everything was done superbly. uke is 13th prince in his country and an omega, so they all hate him. he gets sold off to marry the king of a distant land. uke is like w/e i'll do my duty as a queen, but nothing more. well turns out the king is still a 10 year old child. unknown how old uke is. they start meeting everyday after marriage and get along well. after a while seme asks uke to promise to be his in the future, and uke actually agrees despite not wanting it when he came here. seme then sets off on a tour of his land cuz it's a requirement for a king after ascending the throne. then his brother comes in and says seme's dead. and he confesses to uke that he ordered seme to be killed by arrow. uke doesn't want to become the brother's omega, so he runs off and jumps off a cliff. he survives and is taken care of by seme's other older brother who renounced the throne to live as a peasant with his wife. 8 years later they've set up a good operation there without detection by the brother. uke learned engineering in his country and taught the village people how to make tools to take care of themselves and sell to others. one night after hearing about the brother's attack on a nearby village, he goes to check it out and meets seme again. seme saves him from some of the king's men lingering around. a sudden reunion and seme takes uke back to his village. turns out seme is leading the rebels who want to overthrow the king. they plot and get contacted by this friend of the brother to overthrow the brother together. in return they have to help the friend take over his own country as king. they accept and get allowed into the palace with the friend, have an audience with the brother who's currently king. seme steps in just as the brother is about to kill uke. they send the brother away instead of killing him. ugh as typical in japanese manga.... but then it's implied the brother got killed by the coachmen who were driving him out of the city cuz the hated him for killing their sons. and finally after all that uke and seme have sex and mate with a bite. then we don't really see anything of them afterwards, which is kinda disappointing..... we just see some village people remarking positively about their reign so it sounds like it's hundreds of years later....... :((

music genius older seme. fan music student uke. uke meets seme first time when he's a child and going with his father to tune pianos at a client's house. seme is playing and uke is moved to tears by seme's music. seme is grateful seeing a child react so strongly to his music when he plays kinda just cuz he's good and not cuz he has much passion. since then they've been pretty close. uke is now in college and realized he loves seme romantically and not just as a fan of his music. he asks seme to visit for a while in vienna and seme agrees to let uke stay at his place. while there uke gets drunk and asks seme for a kiss. then mistakenly kisses seme thinking it's a dream. apparently they both act normal after these incidents..... uke then says he wants to tell seme something if he wins a piano competition. but he ends up not winning..... seme can't wait anymore and confesses first lol. then they go to seme's place and fuck. meh i'm not into this kinda younger eager pup uke type stories. nor into weirdly smiley but kinda scary semes.

seme and uke working on same set for some photoshoots. idk what the project is but they take photos in lots of places. seme is stylist assistant and uke is photographer's assistant. somehow uke falls in love with seme at first sight and is annoying pestering seme all the time. seme is annoyed and pushes him away. but then as expected, somehow uke grows on seme and seme forgets his past love. there's some misunderstanding about uke leaving the project but actually he was just away 3 days.... then they get together after that and i guess that's it. boring. hated the characters honestly. fem gay seme and small overhyper uke.

this is really cute, but the author introduced some big topics that didn't get resolved properly. love the art and both characters though. just think it would have been much better as a longer story. shounen-ai, only a kiss. they are childhood friends but seme moved away. uke was so sad and didn't recognize him when they met again in high school at an arcade. this story seems to be set in the 2000s where they still used those keypad phones. anyway, uke thought seme was scary at first, but seme introduces himself and they catch up. things are going great and suddenly seme is trying to woo uke?? by hugging him and giving him a ton of pocky sticks?? this happens so fast. but the author spends a bunch of time in flashbacks showing their past in elementary school. then there's a sudden scene about a local gang boss trying to recruit seme. seme has 3 days to decide before he comes for seme and his loved ones. seme deletes uke's number and ignores uke to protect him. then after several days uke gets worried about seme not picking up his calls. texts seme asking what's going on. seme calls back in the middle of the night asking uke to come to the arcade. uke goes and sees the place is messed up and seme is beaten up. apparently they did this to him after he refused to join the gang. they make up and kiss and it's really cute but is this really enough to let seme off the hook??? then we see them hanging out in seme's room like best friends and lovers now i guess lol. they have a cute confession scene and that's it. lovely art and everything but story is rushed.

this was kinda cute, but also very juvenile at times. seme and uke have known each other since childhood. seme has been interested in uke since young, not romantically, but liked to get his attention by picking on him. they stayed together from kindergarten to uni now. uke finally joins the manga club at uni and wants to be able to be himself, talking about bl and other mangas with the club members. but then seme sees him joining the club and joins as well. uke is apprehensive seme is just there to make fun of him but it turns out okay. he starts to see seme in a kinda good light and starte getting jealous when seme is with girls. seme does little kisses to him here and there pretending he's acting out bl like the mangas but really he likes uke. he finally confesses and uke doesn't believe him. but then uke approaches him to pay back a favour and seme asks for a date as payback. they go to the aquarium and seme plans it so it's just like uke's favourite bl manga. they go home and fuck and are merry. i like the couple dynamics here, but plot is kinda weak.

seme just looks like a delinquent type but not actually. they are both in high school but we don't see them there, only after school. uke always playing with kids from his apartment complex. one day seme shows up asking to hang out too and yeah it's fine cuz public space. seme wants to be better with kids cuz he's gonna have a younger step-bro soon. they get closer through interacting with kids. seme very forward with his feelings after advice from a young girl lol. it's refreshing reading manga where they know how to communicate after reading so many frustrating internal turmoil manhwa shit. anyway, they get together cuz uke realizes he likes seme too. spend a month or so kissing and then they do it. cute and down to earth story.

this is super sweet! seme and uke are supposed to work in library together as part of library committee. uke is delinquent always slacking off. seme hears from others uke always listens to his childhood friend senpai, so he goes to ask senpai to tell uke to work properly. after that uke does come to library properly. they start getting along and seme notices he likes his senpai romantically. uke is worried at first seme will tell everyone, but when nothing happens, he starts really trusting seme and uke opens up even more. seme starts liking uke romantically. then the senpai gets jealous of uke's relationship with seme and asks uke out..... at this point uke is not sure so he kinda trial dates senpai but realizes he likes seme. so he goes to see seme and seme confesses before uke has the chance to do the same. honestly this last bit is too rushed. this story could have been 6 or 7 chapters and that would make more sense. then after they get together they go straight to uke's house where uke blow seme. then in extra they fuck for real and it's kinda hot. anyway, overall super cute story and beautiful art. loved both characters!
