The Sound of Your Voice

Complete | hana (하나) | 2000 released

it's so good what the heck, the pacing is so amazing, everything fell into place YY but dam i cried many tears of both joy and sadness here Edit: sooo im rereading the series, currently on ch.18, and I gotta say the way blue is written, dang, it’s so good, an obsessive, selfish, meddling, toxic ex written from a neutral perspective, at first even a positive one and from what I remember Ethan realizes the toxicity and this time unlike when they broke up, he’s able finally say no and cut ties with him or sumn, anyway I’m rambling and I don’t remember much so I might be completely wrong... Edit 2: now on. chap. 42 and ooh there it goes blues and ethans backstory and yes all that uncomfortableness and spite I felt towards him was very correct but Ethan really tells it best on those few chapters god damn I totally forgor why blue was so obsessive bout Ethan... now I know...which, sure, makes me understand him better, but oooh it does not justify the years of ,well basically, abuse by lying to Ethan and faking romantic feelings towards him just trying to make up for his trauma by using him as a replacement... and now I’m spoiling it, well whatever nobody reads these anyway so it’s just for my future self... hiiii hope you’re not stressed about school anymore my guy! Edit 3: (so I was wrong in edit 1 ) still stressed about school on ch. 61 (damn almost finished) and ofc blue is forgiven and has a tiny redemption arc and well still hate him but I guess I do forgive him as a chara as well... on a more positive note goddd I love these guys Ethan and Jimmy are just so lovable and cute aaaaaaaa Edit 4: waaaaahhhh I love it so much it’s quite a long story after all, a lot happens but everything has its place in the story, it really is just extremely well written and I’m glad it ends where it ends although I’m a bit sad there’s no backstory for jimmy I get that this is a story about Ethan first but I would read a sequel if it would ever emerge. Still really one of the best reads ever, this is fantastic

in the end i gave it 5 stars, but i dont think i'll read it again since it's quite a miserable journey to a happy ending yk? it starts...well how Harada always starts. Somewhere in the first chap. i realized i've dropped it once b4, long ago i belive, and i kinda lost hope for a minute, but decided to stick it out and after all it paid off, the smut is great, there's an actual story with many arcs, supporting charas, but quite a lot of toxicity and painful drama so tread carefully. The ending is quite satisfying though and leaves a nice calmness of mind and heart.

The Director Who Buys Me Dinner

Complete | Toisa , 퇴사 , Kenaz ,Yang eunji , 양은지 | 2000 released

It’s not really good reread material, but it was interesting! With an actual plot and well paced romance and all that. Also the art style gets so much better then slightly worse near the end but it’s never a pain

Last Seven Days

Complete | Hitsuji hitsujima | 2000 released

i wish they just skipped the whole angel shtick and went with the ooh will they find out their love is mutual, cause the personalities and character dynamics are all there, but they've been wasted on this shitshow, and the 'disney twist villain' vibe shion gives off at the end is just so incredibly out of place and pulled from virtually nowhere it's just odd and cringe, could've been very good, cause the author clearly knows how to write a convincing and interesting enough character, but the story is some of the most wattpad smutty bullshit i've read in a manga.

Heart Stain

Ongoing | Ag | 2019 released

bruh my heart seriously started hurting near the end, when Doha said the thing he was putting off i literally felt my heart sink and it hurt right 'till the end, it was really cute tho and i wish there was more end game couple content, it was quite a tear jerker a few times too and the teacher was really creepy if you just stop and think about, but a nice story overall

Sutenaide My Hero

Complete | himoda q | 2017 released

the amount of tags i used... The mental gymnastics I had to go through to turn a blind eye on all the manipulative psychotic shit these two pulled on each other phew well I’m happy for them ( though the 6 yr difference between the 2nd couple is really not sitting right with me considering they’ve known each other since they were tweens... like 11 and 17 no sir no ) Oh also the omega being a top is probably the best part of this whole thing
