Galge no Sekai de Shinyuu ♂ ga Ore o Sukida to Iidashite!?
this was such a fun read! it's my first time reading this kind of plot in a bl or a manga in general cause i've only been seeing this plot in books so yeah. this was really entertaining and they were really cute! my favorite thing here is the dog and the dog's name xD when he said "pota i really don't understand my feelings anymore" man do i feel the same irl lmao ><
See you later, Mermaid
this was ... beautiful. i started this with a lot of questions, but as the story goes on, they were eventually given answers. i am absolutely in awe with the plot and how it was written. having a one and only secret and your one and only childhood friend knowing about it, and everything just started, happened, and concluded through it. this was just very unique and is both heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time :') i love the use of magical realism in this! such a great way of storytelling which was just so mesmerizing to read. definitely one of my best reads! reread: 230201, i forgot how much this made me feel... i am still so deeply overwhelmed by the beauty that is this story <3
Amadare no Koro
ahhh i really liked how realistic it was and how it delved into different life experiences and difficulties that almost everyone goes through in their lives. this really felt so nostalgic in the sense that you'll really understand what they're going through. this was such a nice read :)
Itsuka Tomodachi Ja Nakunaru To Shite Mo
i think this is the first time i read a manga that contains a big family, i wouldn't say i'm not particularly fond of it (cause when our families get together, i think we also become like this? lol) but i think this was just something new for me to see in a manga. i loved how genuine their bond is and it was heartwarming to see them being so supportive and immediately accepting them in the family. the line "now he's a genuine part of the family, huh?" i'm so !!!!!!! aaaa this was such a gem, the couple were so adorable too :( from childhood friends to lovers <3 (also, the brother has some big brother complex, eh? lol yikes ><)
Liquor & Cigarette
the art is so pretty as expected from zariya, although this story was pretty mild compared to their other works if i do say so myself lol >< which! i actually like a lot better hahaha this was a pretty good read if you want something lighthearted but also with a little spice both characters are so pretty and i actually really liked their chemistry (childhood friends to lovers wieee) it was just gentle yet also sensual in their own way. really enjoyed it! reread: 220803: bc i stumbled upon this again and i suddenly missed them :’) 230327: bc i just wanted to keep rereading this story again and again and again!!! i swear i will never get tired of this hnngg i still wish there were more!! t___t 240529: haven’t read any manga in a while then i suddenly remembered this story so ofc i had to read it again :>
Replay (Tsukahara saki)
THIS WAS SO WHOLESOME!!! it just put a smile in my face like it's refreshing and somehow makes me feel nostalgia, idky? haha but yeah, it has such a great plot and the uniform scene :o woaaahh >< definitely heartwarming!!! <3
Haru to Natsu to Nacchan to Aki to Fuyu to Boku
what do you mean it's already over AAAAA this was so good T^T !!!!! it's another childhood friends to lovers story but i still couldn't get enough of them haha >< i just love their love sm!! the warmth i felt from this like hnngg they just made my heart full <33 i really enjoyed reading their story and seeing how much sweet genuine love they feel for one another like ahhh it's the kind of bond you'll actually long for irl :'( moreover, i have such a Huge soft spot for subtlety in a rs like those subtle hand holdings and all that, i've always been a little weak for that bc of how much it just makes me so kilig hahaha but yeah this was just super adorable, i love them sssm <3333
Ore no Aoharu wa Watasanai
ok but this was really cute! it would actually be perfect if not only for the part where he said he isolated him from everyone bc he wants to keep him for himself, it's not really my thing and i found it kinda weird and toxic :/ however, i still enjoyed this! the premise totally hooked me up and subaru was a total cutie <33 i also loved his two friends like aaa can we get a kaneda and taira spin-off?? haha >< this was pretty enjoyable! would have given it 5/5 rating if it weren't for that last chapter huhu why must you say that it was going so well T___T
