katlovesfries's manga / #beautiful art(40)

Extremely interesting plot and concept. I started out with the anime, but I need to read the manga, too. This is honestly amazing, and I can't wait for more - I also love the funny moments, and the contrast in Yuuji's and Sukuna's character.

Started out with the anime, but I had to start reading the manga, and I don't regret it one bit. I love each and everyone of the characters equally. The plot is amazing, too. There's so much to say, but I feel no words can ever justify the feeling of reading this for the first time.

This manga is so cute, and I adore it with all my heart. Uenoyama's interal thoughts about Mafuyu are so cute, and definitely classified as gay panic. I love the slow reveal of Mafuyu's past and the development of their relationship.

SUMMARY [Ilic has committed the perfect crime—or so he thought. After killing his boss’s son in self-defense, Ilic is soon found out by none other than Grand Duke Sa-yan. The duke is gracious enough to allow Ilic to keep his secret…as long as Ilic expresses his gratitude by begging the duke to bed him. And if Ilic refuses, his life may be endangered by his boss’s wrath. Now entirely at Sa-yan’s mercy, Ilic is forced to embark on an affair that involves much more than he bargained for: acts of indecency, political intrigue, and maybe even love.] I really liked the historical aspect in this story as well as Ilic's character. I definitely didn't expect all that shameless smut, at all, but I'm not complaining. Had stunning art, too,

SUMMARY ["I, the rookie actor Kamimura Michiru, am here in the heart of the jungle for the sake of collecting TV news coverage of the mysterious "Nudist Tribe" who is said to reside here. The nudist tribe captured me and tied me up! And now, for some reason, this man in hut is violating me!”] This was really cute, not gonna lie. However, I didn't expect there to be so much smut - no complaining. I loved when Lodi went to Japan just so he could finally be with Michiru again. Cute, cute, cute. Very different from the plots and concepts I usually read, but I enjoyed it, nevertheless.

SUMMARY [A girl goes to the seaside on her class field trip and accidentally meets a mysterious handsome boy, after talking, she hears a dramatic story about a bird and fish, finally the kind girl decides to help the bird fulfill its last wish.] I never expected a story this short to leaves such a big impact on me. I almost shed a tear reading this. This is truly beautiful - would definitely recommend for anyone who just needs a good, old cry.

SUMMARY [Yeo Eui Joon, who works at a convenience store frequented by gangsters, wants to quit as soon as possible because of the dangerous work environment. However, he's stopped by the pay that's 1.2x more than other stores! So, Eui Joon, who needs every penny he can get, overlooks the danger and continues working there. Then one day, Bum Geon Woo, who looks more like a gangster than any other gangsters show up. And as soon as he appears, the other gangsters simmer down... Will Eui Joon be able to safely continue working at this convenience store?] From the very beginning of the story, I've liked the slow development of their relationship. The plot is also very interesting as it not only focuses purely on sex but also on Geonwoo's background and life (same with Euijoon). The art style is stunning and the characters are good. It's so sad they were separated for so long, but the ending is making everything worth it.

SUMMARY [Kurozu-cho, a small fogbound town on the coast of Japan, is cursed. According to Shuichi Saito, the withdrawn boyfriend of teenager Kirie Goshima, their town is haunted not by a person or being but by a pattern: uzumaki, the spiral, the hypnotic secret shape of the world. It manifests itself in small ways: seashells, ferns, whirlpools in water, whirlwinds in air. And in large ways: the spiral marks on peoples bodies, the insane obsessions of Shuichi s father, the voice from the cochlea in your inner ear. As the madness spreads, the inhabitants of Kurôzu-cho are pulled ever deeper, as if into a whirlpool from which there is no return..] This manga is insane. Itou Junji's talent to take a simple thing or concept, and then turn it into something horrifying and downright disturbing is amazing. The art style is so much more detailed than I expected. Truly a unique reading experience!

SUMMARY [Kaname lost his older brother Souta in an accident, too young to die at seventeen. They are so different from each other that the only thing common between them is a book written by Tsujiura Ryousuke. What happens when Kaname meet Tsujiura-san, the author both brothers respect and admire, after Souta’s funeral?] I've become lost for words. This was definitely something else, and not what I expected, at all. This is not for everyone, but be aware of incest amongst other disturbing elements.
