bokutotiddies's manga / #childhood friends to lovers(3)

AHHHHHH!! i love them so much im gonna combust. i didnt think there would be a prequel after the other one, but this was so so wonderful i wanna go reread it rn so i can experience it differently now! ugh theyre both so adorable and i LOVE high school/uni love stories so much. i have nothing bad to say, altogether 10/10 :))) also i love this dynamic sm - the soft and expressive top that wants nothing more than to hold their bottom close to them for life, and the somewhat aloof and bad at talking abt his feelings bottom that is just as in love but awkward about it even tho their top always knows what theyre thinking anyways SOB

sob so cute. so short but such a great trope. childhood friend unrequited love except its NOT UNREQUITED AHA. also the translator for this was so great her notes were hilarious and super detailed i loved them. anyways this was super cute 8.5/10

so good omg i was kinda confused in the first 2 chapters bc of the pacing but i actually loved how it turned out a lot. theyre both adorable and the little plot twist was so cute. the seme is so damn whipped we love to see it. i think his power is more akin to a siren than a mermaid but ig its pretty similar in terms of folklore. anyways really good - 8/10.
