badx's manga / #childhood friends(7)

| 3 STARS | yiiikes this is sad af dk why theres a yaoi tag when nothing rly happened lol but its made by the same creator as "the summer hikaru died" so the arts real pretty but its just a oneshot where the characters are having their last moments together before they get arrested for murder anyway just regular ig

| 4 STARS | dang seems pretty good so far like the art is epic and the chars actually seem pretty cool ngl lol but this fr reminds me so much of mieruko-chan like the ghosts and stuff same with dreaming of the dokkaebi anywar mabye ill update this if it gets more chaps UPDATE : yaurrr more lore <3 so actually the eyes that are haunting kaito (seme) are actually just the past lives of yuuma (uke) and not some random perv ghosts which improves everythingg and the art is sooo pretty like omg i love it so much i hope i updates regularlyy

| 4 STARS | danmg zariya cooked again she always cooks fr this one was definitely cute-coded i loved it <3 it's set in a spain-like area and the story is about theo, the owner of a liquor store who has an abysmal alchohol tolerance but he has to practice drinking for an upcoming festival as a wine taster and his childhood friend milano who is helping his "practice" drinking lol but fr there actually is a lot of serious themes in this story and is extremely well-done <3 this felt so much longer than just 5 chapters but the chapters were all quite long too anyway I read this all in one go so I got the full epic experience and the only reason it's not five is because its 1. too short *sob* 2. mildy cringe but thats just me lol OVERALL EPIC

| 4 STARS | OMG THIS IS THAT STORY WHERE HE HAD TEN SECONDS TO PULL IT OUT CHAPTER 5.5 I was so shocked when I saw it I thought it was gonna forever be a memory (⁠ ⁠´⁠◡⁠‿⁠◡⁠`⁠) anyway the story is pretty good there is a lot of non con in the beginning but they had their cute I love you scene so it all worked out (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠✧⁠* overall pretty epic

| 5 STARS | I had no idea what this was gonna be like when I started reading and just happened to find it randomly but I'm very glad I did this story was actually very well done and so were the characters i adored the maturity and loveliness of touma (seme) and kouji (uke) and what brings it all together is the discrepancy between how their bed roles don't match their appearances like touma is a beautiful office siren glasses type while kouji is an elegant but dark Yakuza type so when I found out that kouji was the bottom I was so happy I knew I would not be sleeping tonight the drama was not overwhelming and there was not a single bad misunderstanding or argument they were always wonderful even when they weren't yet lovey dovey this is why I give you a 5 (in that "if I could give you a zero I would, but I can't, so I give you a one" voice)

| 5 STARS | finally yet another piece of lost yaoi memory that was found again after years and this time (unlike the other memorable one with the attempted suicide) DID NOT DISSAPOINT WHATSOEVER so I read the entire thing on mrm as my past self intended but mostly because the first chapter on mangago is uploaded backwards for some reason but it made no difference and Umi no soko has been firmly placed in my mind as one of the greats like it literally took me 5+ hours to read this 6 chapter story because of how much I appreciated every panel wakashio and yakaze are truly both so epic and they're even reversible on top of yakaze being a merman zombie thing it's actually all of my favorite genres put together i couldn't ask for more and that's why this is so great my only complaint is how wakashio was graped by his brothers even if it was an integral part of the story that lead to wakashio overcoming his fear and killing his brother that doesn't mean I enjoyed it :_( I also wish that wakashio just became one of the deceased and joined yakaze so they could both be mermen but then there wouldn't really be a story to be told so lol anyway idk what else to say maybe that I ofc really like the whole old village/clan setting with wakashio being part of the man eating shark village and yakaze being part of the mountain peddlers village I'm so happy I was able to randomly find this on that list of monster fucker stories so ty to Nerium for the amazing list that I also saw other greats on like zhennaio as well as some potentially good reads that I wanna try YIPPPEEWEEEE
