Renchin!
I love the concept of this story way better than others. Its simple. Some working adult who loves to cook meets this extravagant and always starving new reporter and falls in love. Everything is really just a gay panic and I love that. But the only thing I cant get my mind around was how I felt disengaged from the story in the middle of the series. It just didn't seem as meaningful and genuine. We also got explicit labels, so another win! The sequel story was amazing btw! Reassurance of love-- my type of shit. Storyline - amazing. Plot - great. Storyflow - a bit lacking. Dialogue - amazing.
Mistake Lover
So I binged read this story, as most I do, but this story was different. I loved the first 20 chapters. The guilt, the promiscuous and budding aspects of their relationship seem to grab me. Just when I thought the MC was just an asshole , but too nice to be an asshole too, comes the most complicated and drowning plot. I get it , its called Mistake Lover. But at reading this story, this is what it really means to have miscommunication and how lies spiral you. It was way too complicated and the flashback to understand the miscommunication was too long. It took a whole quarter of the series to actually explain why things had gotten to where they were at the beginning of the story. Storyline - great. Plot - great. Storyflow- not so great. Panel flow - pretty great. Art - amazing actually.
Cocoon of the Heart
Jeff and Terrance, these English names make it easy lol. Well, this story is incredibly tear-jerking. I did not expect all the physiological drama and inclusion of mental illness, but it was phenomal. The only thing are the plot holes, they never finished or calcified what happened/caused the initial accident. I love enemy to lover tropes , but this one was incredibly unique because of how grounded it was in depression/suicide. After chapters 50, my heart wailed with excitement nearly every chapter. My only advice was to also empahsis Jeff going through the mental strain of taking care of someone, mental illness goes away by that not that straightforward. Maybe it does tho, I dont know. But overall, it was a sweet but very painful story. Storyline - great. Art -great. Plot - amazing, with gaps. Dialogue - great. The figurative language is a bit stretching it tho, it was a bit confusing and not straightforward.
Love Awakening x Syndrome
Wow. This was kinda cute, but cringey. One straight-kid asked the gay TA for dating advice. Eventually they start dating of course. I like the open labels of being gay, that was inclusive. On the other hand , I loved how the character who wasn't gay interpreted their feelings somewhat nicely. It was a nice budding romance.
Rational Pervert Romance
Such a stupidly sweet story. And the buff dude is the bottom? Cute. Anyway, I loved how they had an openly gay characters, that works for me. It was a but cringey with the plot, but it was a cute nice read. I think the characters balanced each other out. One was pretty indecisive and fearful, while one was very proactive and bold.
Kimi to Oishii ai no Kotoba
I do not like really like the supernatural trope of being a word eater. And having the control of eating people's words to prevent them from speaking, and eating words as expedited, nutritional growth. Weird. Anyway, there is a weird possessive lover aspect to this and I didnt really find it interesting.
Shucchou Host Nyu Boy
Wow. This story is amazing for what it is!!!!!! Within the short time span of meeting each other and conflicts, they learned to love each other!!!!! Gahhhh. This shit was funny, cute, cringey, sad, fluffy, romantic -- everything I've ever really wanted in a manga. Chef's Kiss.
