okay i have to say that i really relate with love's identity issues. this is smth thats been very relevant in my life for the past year but i really feel the whole "who am i really and is my personality just an act that im putting on to achieve a certain image whilst really ignoring the actual me?" way of thinking. i also completely understand the way love has allowed what seems like a trivial issue to snowball into this huge insecurity and wont allow him to make friends or socialize in anyway. as a really socially anxious person myself ik how relieving it is when you can open up to someone abt these things yet also feel afraid to do so in the fear that maybe its all in your head and its really not an issue at all but youve just overthought it to the point that something so stupid and easy to others is so serious to you that its debilitating and genuinely affecting your entire life. i get it. its been a rough year an a half. honestly at least love was able to create a persona that worked for him, i cant seem to change myself at all. but i dont think thats a bad thing. i think that coming to terms w who you are and truly just accepting yourself is the only way to achieve actual confidence. this is who i am, i guess. if people dont vibe w me bc of that then i cant help it bc this is me and theres nothing i change abt that. but at the same time, if its an issue to the point where it was for love, then change is welcomed and it was nice to see peach explain that to him "changing yourself for another person isn't deception, but effort" ugh i love it. anyways im rambling but now that im done, i can actually comment. so - i was PRAYING for some smut bro. this is one of those stories where i wanted them to fuck so badly i was disappointed in myself LOOOL. but damn we were robbed. especially when this particular mangka is like ?? so perverted? shame application??? i literally dropped it bc it was like 98% smut. u couldn't have sprinkled a few scenes here and there??? idk why I'm so devastated but ugh. also the ending was abrupt i agree w everyone else and i would've loved to see more of love and peach, but i think i realized at some point that the story really isnt abt them at all. i think romance is like the third category this series fits into after action and slice of life tbh. the emphasis was on the gang relationships as well as overcoming love's inner demons and uncovering his dark past. i actually really wish there was more of peach, other the fact that he's mad in love w love and is super strong, we literally know nothing abt him. kinda disappointing, especially when the first 15 chapters set it up as a romantic comedy - which i loved btw. i slowly got kinda bored tbh by the halfway point. but i did like it overall. it wasn't what i expected but it was still worth a read, even if it did take me legit an entire day. overall 7.5/10
Peach Love
