Gay for the Gay God's manga / #Pure(590)

This manga is so cute and pure and it makes me smile.

This story reminds me of an orchid. Something about it is so delicate, so beautiful...

This was one of the first shounen-ai/yaoi manga I read, and it's still so good.

Oh, hey, actual queer issues, what are you doing here? Nice.

This was one of the first manga I read, and I still love it dearly.

For some reason this manga makes me think of Welcome to Night Vale.

This is precious, oh my sweet jesus. I love this one! It's actually on my secret list of yaoi that I reread every so often. (^u^)>

This is also on my list of "The Good Ones"! It's just... so pure... like 100% dark chocolate pure.

Fuckin'... This is one of my favorites. Big, burly, tough guy turns out to be a pure maiden in the bedroom. ...Man, I have some weird fetishes. Edit: Okay, so I finally decided to read beyond the first 2 chapters. I didn't before because I was worried it was gonna be weird bullshit about love triangles or something, but... It wasn't! It explored Yuzuru's mentality a lot, and it was nice to see Satomi try to be a support system for Yuzuru (and to put one in place for when he wasn't present). See, Yuzuru definitely has social anxiety, generalized anxiety, and probably depression. Speaking from experience, that leads to basically having the self-esteem of a cracked mirror. Plus, Yuzuru's mom and family basically abandoned him and his father, so he's probably really worried about people leaving him. All that together led to Yuzuru being this huge ball of anxiety and sadness. Whenever we were reading things from his perspective, I found myself thinking "Oh lord, I have had these thoughts." and "I've done this, too." Like how he's afraid that if he is proactive in any way he'll make Satomi leave, and how he doesn't think he's good enough for Satomi, and, most heartrendingly familiar of all, he can't believe that Satomi actually loves him. But Satomi didn't try and test his feelings; he just made sure to reassure Yuzuru that he did, in fact, love him. He did all the right things. This manga makes me so happy, okay?

This is glorious. I loved seeing everything from the senpai's perspective, for once. He keeps trying to put on airs but he's so gloriously awkward too!
