Ms.Honey's manga / #yaoi(181)

Echoing the comment sentiments - I had no idea at all that this existed. The art is incredibly unique and very pretty, though. There seems to be a certain listlessness about the characters, as if they're not quite sure why they're there, which makes this all the more interesting.

I have so many questions. And I'm gonna have to go research the age gap. Kageyama's in his first year, right? Oikawa's in his second, so that's around a 2-year age gap? Huh. Alright, so factoring that in, Oikawa really did a number on a minor and then ran like a sackless, ball less coward, so now we have to deal with this cliffhanger for 75 or so years.

The way I would not like to work here because of all the unmentionables on the floor that may have been missed and so on... But the art was well done and I absolutely loved the angles the doujin explored. The ship is quite controversial, but I did come for the art cover more than anything and the ART itself was beautiful in both its simplicity and complexity. The art gets 3 solid stars.

On a brighter note, the numbers in the title makes sense now.

I just speed read that. Verdict? Not too bad. My dignity lies in a ditch somewhere, so I guess I'll go find it later.

Usual tropes. Made for a good, quick read.

A classic, and one of the first yaoi I ever read. Nostalgic.

I'm not giving it a higher rating for a few reasons. Like Daikachi, it started with rape and, similar to Daikachi, it didn't resolve any tensions or address the assault at the beginning. What made it different was that the MC of Daikachi, who could afford to move away from Junta and brushed off his rape went to work and continued on as normal without any mention of it because he had a goal of acting for his grandmother in mind that no amount of assault could take away from him. He was determined, strong, stubborn and had a mind of his own that made him come to life despite being fictional. However, THIS protagonist is only a student who could recognise his assault, but put in no thought into moving schools so runs into his rapist daily. He tries to get away from him and is repeatedly thwarted (by the school, which is absolutely hilarious, I must admit) and in the end pursues a relationship with the rapist due to a definite flaw in his personality. The rape was a factor I can move past - as terrible and insensitive it is for me to say - because it's so common in the genre and many mangakas don't address it as such in their works. It was a rarity to see a protagonist who recognised the act, but it was definitely tiring to see him harping on about it to someone who clearly DIDN'T care and beat up his friend - love Ichii, Stan him for clear skin honestly - when he attempted to intervene. Simply put, he's weak and I get minimal enjoyment out of reading this because of that. I love the art though, it's beautiful so it gets a star. And Ichii. Ichii is everything, but he's also very ignorant.

Read this in about five minutes flat, even less perhaps. Starts with race as per the course of omegaverse but the protagonist just accepts it and the monster is happy about it. Interesting and unique read and I liked the art and the shortness of it. Three stars from me.

It has limited plot and expansion on characters outside of the main couple, so I'd be breaking my own rules of I gave it a four star rating. So, I toned it down to three. The art is gorgeous, the relationship is sweet though fast developed and it has enough humour to make me giggle from time to time (mainly the black haired best friend character who can't pull anybody because he was shopping with his sister and is simultaneously dealing with Kakeru's - the MC - bullshit daily). I actually want more on this so I can give it the higher rating it deserves and an expansion on the love interest's family. I like all characters in this, which is a rare moment for me. Outside of the whole supernatural smell thing happening, everyone's reactions feels somewhat real.
