The Library

Complete | EonA | 2000 released

Never in my life did I think I would be looking at something like this. I've definitely learned my lesson, and will read the summaries before starting on any manga or manwha again (just read that shit, omg). Oh well... read at your own risk.

My Childhood Friend Was a God

Complete | Ruru (menten watagashi) | 2019 released

This one made me tear up. With a few pages, a beautiful massage was conveyed. Beautiful and sad. Definitely worth reading.

App

Complete | Potion | 2000 released

This manhwa is a quick read, but not surprising. I like the smut and the fact that it's a quick read. The art style is beautiful as well, and I wish that all pages were fully coloured. Overall, a simple and good story.

The Specific Heat Capacity of Love

Complete | Old Xian, Moss | 2012 released

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.

Bitten By Moonlight

Complete | Chada | 2019 released

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I liked the action-filled beginning, and the use of magic and all the other supernatural elements. The art is stunning, but would I like even more depth to the plot and characters. Sadly, this is only meant as a short story.

Signal 100

Complete | Miyatsuki arata,Kondou shigure | 2019 released

I've been sitting, trying to collect my thoughts on this manga, but I'm speechless. I started reading this a couple of months ago, but I couldn't bring myself to finish it because of a lack of interest. I'm so happy I did, though. This was full of plot twists, and I had no idea what to expect, nor what would happen next. This manga will make you question everything, seriously, EVERYTHING! It plays mind games with you like no other piece of fiction I've ever read. This was such a thrilling reading experience, but keep in mind that non-consensual acts do take place in this manga. Proceed with overall caution.

Tomie

Complete | itou junji | 1987 released

This was certainly interesting, especially seeing how Itou Junju interprets obsession. The art style is fantastic, but I do wish the ending had been a little more "well-rounded" or so to speak. The manga ends abruptly, but maybe that's just me. Tomie is a person who every woman envy, and a person every man will grow to fear. Overall, a very pleasant experience with many unexpected things and situations thrown into the story.

Living Will

Complete | mina (미나),ziho | 2019 released

This is a short read, and overall very likeable. The relationship between Jeanette and Jeanne is super cute, but the ending made me feel so empty. I do, however, wish that the story was longer so the readers could get to know the characters even more, and just get more details about the plot and Jeanette profession in general + the more of Jeanette's and Jeanne's relationship.

Ao no Flag

Complete | Kaito | 2000 released

Such a beautiful story about love and friendship. It focuses on the complex relationship between friends and how feelings may develop as a result of said relationship. This manga is really a story that is "coming of age", and such an important piece that everyone should read. It focuses on the differences between people, but also highlights that differences and change aren't bad. Those things makes us who we are. I really enjoyed this a lot, and would recommend for anyone who is looking for something impactful and great.

Fuan No Tane

Complete | Nakayama Masaaki | 2004 released

I have mixed opinions about this manga. I loved the many scary panels, but really wanted the stories to be longer. They don't get to evolve when they're so short, but I also understand that a lot has to be interpreted by the readers--even so a little disappointing. The first volume is the best in my opinion.
