riv's manga / #University life(13)

it was fine. Shiro is a demon who feeds off of words. If he doesn’t get enough positive words, he’ll die. This is about him and his “owner” Makato . Makato, who’s a closeted homo, never thought he could do things like dating,kissing, sex and all that fun stuff. He falls in love w/ Shiro who constantly wants to hear “I Love You” from Makato cause he wants to feed off of those words. Pretty sweet but that brat (idk his name, he’s bi) is super annoying. Also Shiro looks South Asian to me so rep??? i don’t know. It was fine. 5/10

Bessho and Glasses Guy (dk his name) fall in love and that’s about it. They’re such a cute couple and it’s almost like you can feel their almost unbearable love for eachother through the screen while reading. Being smacked with this immense fluff and sweetness, my heart can’t take it much longer. It’s really cute and makes your heart tingle in absolute joy at how adorable these two are. Super easy read. I liked the side characters as well. In terms of enjoyment, 9/10. I think it would be nice if it showed them moving in together or a little flash into the future. I want to know where these little babes r. They’re just so lovable. Overall, 7.8/10

i really fell in love with these characters. i think this was my second or third time rereading and i still giggle at the funny bits. this has literally been the most popular shounen ai manhua since forever and you can see why. Yu Yang is so likeable and Li Huan is so cute you just wanna bully him. The pink hair guy is cute as well. DJun put their entire being into making these characters and this story. I really really love it, it’s saur cute. 10/10, will reread next yr probs.

short and sweet. Pretty cute for the length. I think both characters are very likeable which is a nice plus. overall, 8/10

Don’t really know how to feel about this. The whole bystander thing w/ jinhyuk (black hair) pissed me off sm!! Like you’re telling me not one person decided to speak up or interfere? fuck that. Also, I know jinhyuk has reason for not wanting to come out because same-sex marriage isn’t even legal in korea and as he said, there are too many risks, but he didn’t have to say it like that. And there was no, “i will come out and face my fear” arc. I just felt that in the end, jinhyuk was lowkey unlikeable. His character was so one-dimensional, and I feel like he had no character development between his high school days and now. They’re both 32 at the end of the story, but only one of them seems like they had 14 yrs worth of experience between their high school days and the present. In the end, jinhyuk is just kind of gloomy and his character didn’t resonate with me that much. He really doesn’t struggle with anything at all and has no worries except for heechul. Genuinely, who actually dreams of getting into a good company and has no hobbies or passions or emotions? Like he pissed me off so much. It’s as if everything abt him is so fake and manufactured because nobody acts like that irl. He’s too textbook good kid, and it makes him seem emotionally distant to even the reader (which makes no sense cause we see him as his private, most authentic self). Anyway, this was a 6ish/10. Wouldn’t reread tbh

collection of short stories. too short to get attached to any of them, but it wasn’t bad. The 27y/o man + 17 yr old hs student pairing was weird tho… 7/10

eh. i don’t get why they bothered to go into his family dynamic if they weren’t going to figure out who his real dad is. his “im not coming out the closet” mind set pisses me off. Blonde hair guy is really so sweet for just putting up with it. Who cares if you’re gay or straight, you’ll pass by those ppl on the street and never again! at least the art was nice ig 6/10
