Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku
it's not complete yet, but i love wotakoi sm!! i read the manga and caught up in the same night as i finsihed the anime LOL. the main couple is adorable but i like the side couples much more.
Watashi ga Motete Dousunda
hehe finally read this one after it being in my list for so long. the anime was SO GOOD! its definitely bc im an avid bl reader that i liked it so much tho, like if i had watched this a year ago i wouldnt have understood anything LOOL. but yes, so good! reverse harems are the best, and especially when all of them are so likable. i LIVE for the main couple so much. its kinda rare that the fl ends up w the sweetest character sadly, usually preferring the tsundere type that doesnt deserve love (can u tell im still traumatized from ao haru ride ily kou soz) but nope she chose the best boy! the story was super hilarious and i really loved it. tbh kae got on my damn nerves towards the end tho. she was really selfish w her interests and it was so fucking annoying to see her treat mutsumi badly. then again she kinda paid for it but i dont know if that was enough. im glad she figured shit out but that part made my blood boil tbh. bro nanaxshino extra is a blessing. i didnt even ship them until the end but i am Craving more content on them now, please i pray that the mangaka chooses to make a full length side story on them. anyways - super good! 9/10
Ellin's Solhwa
its been a few days since i read the majority of the story but i thoroughly enjoyed this read. honestly, everything was 10/10 except for maybe how fast paced it was during the very last few chapters but honestly I'm really happy with all the character developments and story arcs. i was always surprised how it managed to pack a huge punch in just a mere 2-3 chapters but that's exactly what allowed it to have so many story/character arcs in just 50 chapters. I've seen manhwas twice this length with less plot and interesting storylines. I'm so obsessed with the character designs (literally started it solely for kiha, that beautiful BEAUTIFUL intellectual man) and the whole korean historical aesthetic and setting. all the men were so fucking stunning, i couldn't stop drooling at all of them and its the main reason it took me so long to read LOL. kiha is so poetic and kind and just overall wonderful. I've never read a story w a ML like him, i think i genuinely grew feelings for him lmaooo. ellin is a great and very likable fl and she always acted the way i think i would have in situations so it was satisfying to see. I'm sad that jin was such an asshole bc hes truly so fucking hot. kinda thought he should've died in the end but it was nice that he lived anyways. my heart BROKE for the twins and lights death was so fucking tragic that i literally cheered when i saw his isekai-moment. he deserves the best and so does moon. i think my fav characters are moon and kiha fs. ahhh i wish men irl grew out their hair like the mls but the more i think abt it, it doesn't hit the same without the outfits. plus they're not kiha or light so its just not the same. period. anywyas, the storyline is really really good and its actually my first ever isekai (sabrina is vv proud) so it'll always be one i will rmbr. 9.5/10
Tama No Gohoubi
i loved this sm!!! such a feel good shoujo story it succeeded at getting my mind off other things for a couple hours :,). i ADORE tamao, he is fucking adorable and his social awkwardness had me both awwing and crying over him. the character designs are so pretty, reo is like literally the prettiest character in the entire thing lol. the fl is quite literally me. I'm constantly thinking abt stuff like that when I'm w guys (tho i hate to admit how subconsciously horny i am) and tho my imagination isn't quite as wild as hers, its pretty much up there LOL. this was so pure and sweet i loved it a lot. it was also like the perfect length, not super long but doesn't leave me wanting more chapters or anything. ye - 9/10
Man With Flowers
I LOVE FLOWER BOY SM HES THE CUTEST ML EVER. AND THE FL IS MAD RELATABLE. highkey wish my college life so far looked like hers. super cute!!
I Became the Hero's Mom
ayo this was actually a very very good read so far and i cant wait for updates. im reading on sawateam so the translation is great and the story is building up to be really interesting. i usually kinda skim over the fantasy world elements in isekai reads but its fascinating in this one. i read this theory that "deborah" is actually the body of aisha necromanced by the high apostle in the novel since hes a dark element user making abel's fl actually aisha's body WHICH IS SO WEIRD OMG. but so interesting. anyways abel is adorable and i cried really hard for him in the first couple chapters bc of the child abuse. hes so wonderful and i love that hes actually given enough screen time. not so much in the most recent chapters but hes definitely a main character. the romance is also really funny lmaooo its pretty slow burn and i dont think aisha has actual romantic feelings for hades just quite yet but i love their dyanamic rn theyre v chaotic. the moments between all three of them are my absolute fav tho. so sweet and warm. anyways, im sure this has got a lot of chapters left so i cant wait!
Ao Haru Ride
ao haru ride was definitely a ride to say the least lol. i liked the anime but honestly i cant understand why they decided to animate such a tiny portion of the story and literally none of the main plot. the manga was so GOOD and the character development for both kou and futaba was done so so well. i have to say the star of the show is kou of course. this man had me experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions everytime he was present. i have many many mixed feelings for him but overall im extremely happy with his character at the end and i support them w most of my heart. touma is too lovable and wonderful for me to forget about him tho. hes the best boy ever and i hope hes able to find happiness somehow. he really didnt deserve the pain and anxiety he experienced through getting involved w these two but he is the one who decided to persist so its on him. theres definitely way too many things to say abt the plot. ill do jot notes ig: - futaba is very admirable and mature. definitely one of my fav fls. shes very persistent and bold sometimes, which can get annoying to watch but if she wasnt as headstrong as she is she wouldnt have achieved eveything she set out to accomplish, which is inspirational. she goes after everything she wants w all heart. how can u hate that. - kou's backstory is really dark and makes him probably one of the most complex shoujo characters ive ever read. his guilt towards narumi broke my heart and made me borderline hate him, but honestly it just proves how good of a person he really is, even if he did it for himself. you can say what you want abt kou but he is extremely loyal and faithful to his friends and loved ones. his journey back to "tanaka kou" was so fulfilling and watching his personality blossom was so fun. but he really did make me hate him for how he turned down futaba. but yknow what? i have never seen a male lead repent for his actions and suffer as much as kou. the love of his life literally dated a 10/10 in front of his eyes and all he could do is watch from the sidelines. those moments made my heart clench for kou but also flutter for touma. now this is what it means to have two amazing male leads and an effective love triangle set up, even if kou always owned futabas heart and we all knew that deep down. i love these 3 characters so much and i have to say that ahr is def one of my fav shoujo stories thus far. 9/10.
