Shiawase Gohan - Maki to Hanazawa
this is probably the most detailed story that revolved around cooking and food i have ever read! it's so adorable how the author is into cooking as well and they add their own recipes at the last part of every chapters! the artwork is very nice too! beautiful storyline and the pace was just right. tasty and yummy foods that will really make you hungry >< and two people and their lovely bunny just living their happy, domestic life together! it's really nice to see how healthy their relationship was... like yeah, there were still some things they were afraid to tell each other (won't spoil ><) but they still always managed to communicate everytime and reassure their love to each other, and even despite all those hurdles, their love still stayed strong and it was just very heartwarming to see that <3 i love love love hana, maki and pyon so much !! i really adore the author for showing how beautiful it is to have someone special and have that happiness you have always wanted with that person grow beautifully (and i hope i can have that kind of person too someday haha ><) this was just a pleasant and wholesome read! <3 ps: i love long haired hana sm omg he's so pretty !
Cut-Over Criteria
this was just very lighthearted yet so wholesome! it was really a nice read and i specially love the art style, it was just pleasant to look at and makes the story much prettier >< also, i think the author did a pretty good job considering this was their first work! ++ i'm so glad this didn't go towards the "i'm straight but i'm gay for you" trope and sato immediately acknowledged that he's bi. definitely a great bi reputation in a bl ^^ i'm not that knowledgeable in programming since i'm in med but it was easy to grasp and understand it with the way the author wrote about it. really enjoyed this one! also, i really love both long and short haired sato man he's so pretty, jin is one lucky man! haha but no, they were really adorable together <33 reread: 221227
Run Way no Yukue wo Shiritaika
ahhh as expected from this author! this was really good!!! i just loved how healthy they are as a couple, they have communication and consent, they know their boundaries and are confident with themselves and each other; and there is that undeniable trust they have in their relationship. frankly speaking, the description did not give this story justice /at all/. the characters love each other unconditionally, and doesn't even think about the thought of doing 'it' until it was brought up in a conversation because they're already contented with just being with one another... and that is just so refreshing to see in a manga. it was just so nice to see how deep and profound their love is <3 not to mention how they're such pretty boys like wow! this was just beautiful ><
Wind Blowing Tonight
literally just cried my eyes out over this oh my god this was just so painfully beautiful... i don’t wanna spoil anything so i’m just gonna talk about what i’ve felt from this. the plot and the art style are both so good. the story isn’t something that is easily predictable and it’ll really make you keep wanting to read more. it was both heartbreaking and heart-mending at the same time. they just.. they just deserve everything... happiness, love, and each other. this was So good and i would really love to read more of this. i hope this could have a sequel or anything if that could be possible. nonetheless, this was such a healing read. definitely worth it. pro tip: listen to “sa susunod na habang buhay” by ben&ben while reading this for the full experience. :)
Bokutachi no akai ito
just bokuaka being domestic together plus with their own matching rings <333333 i adore this!!!!
Snow Fairy
“once the snow melts away, this house that i’d lived in alone all this time will become a home for two.” <3 this was such a beautiful story and a wonderful read. there’s just something about this that really makes the readers so enraptured by it. it has such a beautiful art, amazing plot, excellent pacing, well-written characters, and how everything flows is just— wow. this was absolutely heartwarming and just wholesome. i have found a new favorite story and i’ll definitely come back to this again and again. <3
Wootan to Fumi
AAAAA THIS WAS SO CUTE !!!!!!!!! this was just an absolute delight to read omg i honestly didn’t expect it to be this adorable ?? i really loved this so much!!! childhood friends to lovers with bunny elements and just being so fluffy?? wow, i’m sold! they’re just cuties ahhh my heart :’)
Dekoboko Bittersweet Days
1) Dekoboko Sugar Days 2) Dekoboko Bittersweet Days this was really nice! it tells a story of them growing up and following their own paths in life. i really liked how rui still followed his dreams and went to france despite yuujirou telling him to stay with him. 4 years is a long looong time so it’s nice to see how they stayed loyal with each other despite the distance between them. sometimes in a relationship, we have to go through leaps together even if it will be a difficult thing to do bc that will determine how strong your relationship could be. i enjoyed this as much as the first story! i just wish there will be a sequel for takenaka and umino too ><
Kiss de Egaku Ittousei
this was so good :(( i’m so glad seno has anzai who’s always there for him and has helped him get over his trauma bc he really didn’t deserve all the bad things that happened to him :( especially because he’s just being him... but yeah, this was such a nice read! i love how the making art subject was depicted here and how it made an impact both to the story and to their relationship. they’re just so adorable and i loved them sm <333 “there’s no need to be afraid anymore. i’ll turn your past scars into constellations in the starry night.” such a lovely phrase <3
