❀'s manga / #straight(281)

fl is heir to richest family in japan. ml is her ninja bodyguard. they were childood friends before ml went off to do ninja training. his family always serves fl's family. in the end they never even kissed, but pacing is not bad. fl is just too dumb and kind..... can't do much shit. always getting saved by ml. she just closes her eyes and braces for impact lmao and ml appears to save her...... story is revolving around stigma of dating your ninja. fl wants to change that so she and ml can be together.

this story is really good. honestly among the most respectful and polite MLs I've ever seen and the FL is very capable and I love to see a dark haired FL who the ML is subservient to. But tbh the powerful FL thing got so overdone and tired at the end. It's like the author just threw every possible good thing her way...... she's hot and good at acting so she learns manners in a day and good at athletics and archery and picks up swordsmanship fast....... like seriously is there anything she can't do...... and by the end the ML gives her his fucking land and starts an empire named after her and he is duke of the city areas..... wtf???? she becomes queen??? and their lines to each other, sweet for sure, but bordering on cringe...... and the translations for this manhwa are not that great, lots of grammar and spelling errors and forgetting words, not sure which company translated.. tbh i just take a star off for these issues that started by the end. the resolution is also very easy and clean for ML and FL. everything works out too fast.... summary of story: FL was actress in korea, suddenly falls to fantasy world. meets ML who asks her to act as his woman to solve the mystery of what happened to his ex fiancee, cuz she died under suspicious circumstances. lots of shit happens and they find out she was basically forced to die by the crown prince and the head maid of ML. she was pressured to take own life cuz she was pregnant and everyone was rude to her, nobody standing up for her, not even ML cuz he used to be cold duke of north. and he had a fucking personality change for FL. crown prince tries to fight war against ML's land, but they are very unsuccessful cuz apparently no other dukes wanted to back up prince. it's a defeat super fast and prince's younger sis becomes queen in the few days he's absent......... literally wtf..... apparently their dying king father changed his will but who knows.... i do like the respectful relationship between ML and FL, but now I think I don't actually like it when the ML is all sweet and subservient. Seems like a joke....

started off with a good premise, but i think it got cancelled. kind of dragged on for too long, so no wonder. season 1 dragged on for 60 chapters and then season 2 is over in 10... barely any communication between fl and ml after they are children. they are separated for 13 years and talk 1 day and they figure shit out and are married within 10 chapters. honestly wtf, and too many loose ends. basically girl isekais to world of story she read before. she is abused girl living with a witch. ml was also kidnapped by witch. witch is using both of them for power. they run away together and kill the witch, which is pretty awesome. they live in the forest with a great fairy who protects them before ml is found by the empress who is his mother. he goes to live as a prince, but he couldn't say goodbye to fl before he left. he leaves a letter but there's an issue with the ink and fl somehow thinks he abandoned her for a better life. honestly this part is kind of dumb.... anyway, then they spend 13 years apart, with fl slowly transitioning from learning to be a witch to learning to be a master of some elemental spirits. and then she finds her real family which is the pope family of neighbouring country. and then somehow they rush the ending to ml and fl meeting again.

very cute high school setting. i like the fl's personality, straightforward and communicative, not shy. ml is a shounen baseball boy. he's nice too, in that naive an straightforward way. i don't think he's the type to cheat and stuff, but he seems careless with relationships and too focused on baseball. like part of his charm is supposed to be how he doesn't know relationships and romance, but he can't use that as an excuse forever. that appeal wears off real fast. anyway, i'm projecting lol he's not that kind of bad guy. they are really cute and it's a slow moving romance. both developing feelings during the story in a totally natural way. i really like the relationship progression and both characters' personalities.

cute and sweet story! girl who likes plushies. guy who is rich and kinda arrogant student council pres. fl gives ml a plushie in his likeness as thanks for him helping her before. he throws it away as he does with all gifts. but the plushie has a soul and curses him for throwing out what the fl made. when the ml curses or says mean things, he turns into a plushie. then when fl is happy, he turns back to human. they get closer through these antics. and it's quite silly and fun. it helps ml open up to the people around him more and ml is happy to have these experiences. then they get together i guess cuz both like each other. ml's feelings are kinda sudden but it kinda makes sense cuz fl's the only girl he's close with and knows. but it's kinda like grooming idk cuz he doesn't know anything else. anyway, it's w/e not trying to spoil the story. it was short and sweet, not bad drama.

BEST CHARACTERS EVER. GOOD OPEN STRAIGHTFORWARD COMMUNICATION. SLOW RELATIONSHIP WHERE BOTH SIDES ARE DEVELOPING FEELINGS. THE ML IS SO FUCKING COOL I CAN'T WITH HIM DAMN HE'S MY FAV. really realistic portrayal of a boy who tries to be romantic for fl, but he's got a boy mind lol

damn this is a controversial one but it's fucking hot. bomb ass art and love the characters' personalities. fl is into sex just a much as ml. and she's not a blushing maiden. very realistic. made me like it as much as i do bl characters, so i'm impressed lol. and the sex is hot. too bad it's incomplete, but i'm not too mad.

oneshots. i liked this author's other work a lot. this seems to be her earlier works. i only liked story 2 and 4.

c

this is cute but ongoing. fl is a stoic girl who seems relatable and normal. not blushing and flailing around. ml is a delinquent. kinda fun. he's short and a people person. finished chap 10.
