mangasaeki's manga / #BL(123)

This was really refreshing in the sense that the character's personalities were so calm and collected. There was no major drama either which was unusual as well, but it was portrayed in a comfortable and sincere way. I really liked the amount of time the characters didn't spend together. Typically, even in real life, people would meet up more often than they did but because of their personalities and having their priorities/morals in check, they just came to each other when they had the time or it was necessary. Both characters, despite the seme being more antsy, were very mature and had a certain dynamic that was spicy but sweet. The art is stunning, of course. Smut was full of chemistry. I personally don't like stories from a brothel perspective, so I can't say I loved that plot point but either way, I very much enjoyed this read.

Tbh, it was really meme-able. Anyway, slight dubcon but a cute read!

I liked the story quite a lot, the only issue I have with it is that I feel like they were lacking a real connection. Seme was very standoffish the whole time and it just came across to me that his feelings weren't as genuine. Uke's erratic behaviour was concerning as well, almost too young and unpredictable, so it didn't balance too well between them for me. Nonetheless, still cute and rather sweet to the end.

Only the last two chapters are worth reading....

Well that was cute as shit. If you love fluff, I highly recommend this manga. The plot was very interesting and quite original. There was a really calm ebb and flow to the writing as well that was interest-piquing enough, but not too dramatic. Very much a coming of 'person' story, not so much age, imo. Very cute, even through out the the conflict. Great read!

Honestly, I could break this entire thing down on where it was good, bad and fucked up, but what would be the point if it's Harada. There's a very intense rape scene, so if you cannot handle that, I would seriously recommend not reading this manga. Anyway, the art is beautiful, as always. The plot was actually coherent as well. Very intense all around, not necessarily good but not bad either because the themes were so intense.
