ALisAnimeLover's manga / #fish(2)

Koi ni mo Naranai.

Complete | Hagi | 2016 released

So in the story, Yuuya has "unrequited love" with his brother. But he realizes that it may not really romantic but rather attachment since he is indeed his brother who's about to get taken away from him. Interesting take compared to the cliche stories where they really flat-out say it's romantic. I love how the goldfish symbolized his love and the aquarium his heart. He wanted to throw his heart/aquarium away but couldn't because he could still see a spark somewhere else. And alas, the goldfish Souta gave him was a keychain/(fake) never-dying goldfish ^_^ <3

Kimi no Soba de Yamikumo na Yume o Miru

Complete | Mita Homuro | 2000 released

Ch 1-2: stupid dude who keeps trying to find his forever in a club and ends up with dudes with dangerous kinks. Turns out his childhood friend likes him. Annoyingly cliche. 2/10 Ch 3: "I wanted to make you happy. You are happy but not because of me". Epic. 10/10. Ch 4: Pedophilia??? Shota seme. Or idk, is there some other way I can interpret this??? 0/10 Ch 5: Cute. Somewhat feels lacking and cliche though. 5/10 Ch 6: Another pedophile story. Though at least the pedo's the "villain". Oh my fucking god. He even cheated on his lover. I have no idea which his original lover is, but fact is, he's a cheater and a pedophile. Gosh. 3/10. I don't like how there's no conclusion, but it seems promising. Is this an attempted pilot chapter? Ch 7: Cuuuute. This is one of the stories I will never forget. 7/10 (lol all that praise but it's just a 7)
