nini's manga / #★★★★★(96)

this was actually pretty good ^^ i didn't expect much bc of the low rating but i do like this author so ik i wouldn't be disappointed and of course they came through i'm not really into this type of plots but i genuinely enjoyed the long unrequited trope and the way they developed feelings :> kazuki is such s green flag pls :(( the way he knew he'd still be hurt by what he's doing but he still stayed and let yuugo do anything he wanted ㅠㅠ tbh i think satoshi really loved yuugo, he wasn't the worst type of ex :)) he always reassured yuugo and even wanted to tell his son about them but then again as for someone who's working to put food in the table i understand why he had to keep it a secret and deny yuugo bc if risks his job its not only him that would be affected but his son too so yea i feel bad that yuugo had to go through that but i also feel the pain for satoshi :(( but i'm glad that they had a good closure and both apologized to each other which is so mature of them <33 i'm also happy that kazuki's unrequited love of 8 years has finally been reciprocated ^^ overall this was a pretty good one !! i really liked kazuki's dialogues ig bc i can somewhat relate to him anyway yea i enjoyed this :> i wish we got to see more of them after being official but i'm satisfied bc they were already being domestic since the beginning hehe ^^ the art style is pretty i love this author's art style :D this was a good read !!

this was a cute one ^^ there was a bit of angst but it was mostly fluff and slow burn :> i like slow burns so i enjoyed seeing their feelings bloom for each other >< their relationship is just so pure and adorable~ i'm glad that kou can finally move on and be happy with saki >< misumi seems like a nice guy too, its very unfortunate to lose him but i'm glad kou at least got some closure from the diary :(( misumi's gf wasn't the red flag type and she understood their situation which is so mature of her ^^ overall this was a pretty good one~ its been a long time since i've read something in the middle (vibe wise) just the right amount of angst and wholesome~ i wish we got to see more of their college life and just them dating but i'm pretty satisfied with just seeing them happy so hehe <33 this needs a higher rating bc this had a good plot and the characters were really nice~ the art style's pretty too this was a good read !!

☆ i'm not really a gamer so idk much abt genshin but this was pretty cute ^^ i'm quite familiar with the game characters so i kind of distinguished some of them but yea i enjoyed this dj ^^ it had a good amount of plot in just a oneshot so i was pretty satisfied :>> the art style is amazing too !! the pair up fit together and they looked cute so <33 this was a nice read !!

☆ a funny and cute oneshot ^^ i had secondhand embarrassments for the both of them but overall they were so domestic and adorable so i'll give them a 5 also they're married hello >< i love cute husbands and the ending lol that's funny jdjsjdjjd this was a funny and short read !! ^^

this was a nice sequel !! i think this is my fave out of the 3 installments bc i felt like the plot was more polished ^^ i feel like even though this had more angst/gore i think there were more sweet scenes with kabu and nirasawa :> ik that kabu loves nirasawa but i just want him to say ily hsjdjshdhsh but he did say it the the first volume and nirasawa just thought he took drugs or something so i guess i kind of understand for not saying it when he was awake anyway, i think the plot was quite nice :)) it was wrapped up in a very emotional yet sweet scene >< i'm glad that they finally get to be happy together~ i'm happy that kabi finally gave nirasawa na reassurances that he deserved <33 the extra was so funny and adorable >< i wish we got more extras here like the one is the 2nd installment but i was pretty satisfied ^^ i also got some domestic marriage life tease so i'm pretty happy abt that overall this book closed the series in a very nice and clean way !! everything became clear and there weren't any plot holes (imo) ^^ the couple had their happy ending too <33 not much red flags for kabu (but there are still some parts where he became slightly violent though ig bc he was grieving abt his father so that triggered it but still its abuse in a way) at least i got to see some character development and he finally accepted his feelings for nirasawa :D as for nirasawa, i'm very happy for him >< he finally gets his love reciprocated and ig they can have some peace of mind now that they killed shao chen :> but i think that's only for a short period of time bc they are still part of the yakuza with kabu being the overall leader of the org so i just hope they'll be okay~ also i just love how supportive their members are ^^ the art style is gorgeous again, very obsessed this was a nice read !!

this was pretty good ^^ i really enjoyed the dynamic this couple had >< i love how they always bicker but become wholesome and sweet at the same time <33 yoshiaki is the standard pls though i didn't like it when he forced himself onto kasumi that time they fought but other than that scene he was such a green flag !! literally everything you'd want in a guy as for kasumi, he's stylish yet chaotic jsjsjsjdj i love him he's a very fun character and i love how kasumi and yoshiaki are polar opposites of each other :> their dynamic's pretty comedic and adorable i'm obsessed ^^ i love how they went from childhood friends to lovers too !! tbh the plot at first felt quite shallow since i thought there wasn't gonna be any backstory but i'm glad the author put bits of their past and how they became lovers ^^ i also love how domestic they are >< i really love the scene where kasumi went to yoshiaki's bed while half asleep pls that was so wholesome and adorable ㅠㅠ i also love how they actually got married hello !!!!! i'm so happy for them esp when they've been together for a very long time ❣️ i also love how supportive both their families are and even attended the wedding >< yoshiaki's secretary is a mood pls i see myself in her also i didn't expect her to be married with children its so funny :D overall i really liked this one !! there was only one scene that i didn't like and that was their argument scene (the forceful thing yea) but other than that this was a pretty fun and light read !! i really love reading established couples they even got married >< i wish we got to see more extras after their marriage but the way there were living was like they were already married so i'm satisfied hehe ^^ oh also i didn't read the extra story hehe but the art style is gorg of course i love this author's art this was a pretty fun and nice read !!

this was so wholesome omg !!! i wanted more though but the extra NAURRRR THE TIME SKIP I CRIED ❣ tane is the cutest babie :( minoru is so sweet <33 and as for yutaka hes so precious i love him overall the pacing was good and i liked the plot and flow of the story <33 i would've liked to see yutaka getting closure with his family, as well as, him and minoru as a couple bc we only got to see tad bits of those but yea this was so so fluffy and wholesome and the art style is pretty good read ❣

this was a very wholesome and adorable one !! i really love established couple tropes >< but in this one, they're actually just been dating for a month which is quite new so the whole story centers around the small and petty conflicts a new couple has ^^ i don't really enjoy those bc it gets annoying but this one was pretty cute (though there were parts that u got secondhand embarrassment and got frustrated ) but the couple had good communication so ithe conflicts were solved quickly ^^ the plot was very simple and straightforward~ it was light, wholesome, and a bit comedic :> what i can say is that i love yoshiyuki !! he's such a green flag HELLO >< does the chores, is very understanding, clingy but also respects your space, initiates communication, hates getting into arguments so he always apologizes, cooks well, etc. !!! he just has everything personality and appearance wise ㅠㅠ i get why yuzu fell for him bc i absolutely did as well :'D i love how they were both mutually pining for each other since they were in high school but just managed to confess in college lol they're cute and very domestic !!! also i almost forgot that they even got married omg !!!! i wish we got to see more but i mean they were alreadt living like newlyweds so i was pretty satisfied <33 we even got some extras so i was pretty happy with it :)) i also love how supportive their friends are~ the art style's pretty too !! this was a very nice and wholesome read !!

this was so adorable >< i love reading abt mutual pining ^^ it wasn't the type where you'll get frustrated bc i can see how their feelings grew even more throughout the whole thing so i enjoyed it <33 ono is such a cute puppy >< he's tall, popular, and athletic but he's also shy and clumsy which is so cute ^^ i love how he never pushed his feelings for kijima but he was also trying to get closer to him~ kijima is the stern and cold type but he also gets shy and adorable when he's with ono >< i just love their dynamic i wanted to see more of their dating life but i was still happy with the ending bc i got bits of spice and sweetness as for the other story (which is a oneshot) i think it was also good, at least both of them had some closure ?? the comments are saying that it was motomi's fault for running away but i mean maybe he had some reasons idrk since it wasn't really specified but i think the whole story (first & second) were both written beautifully ^^ the art style is immaculate !! i'm so obsessed with it this was a wholesome and bittersweet read !!

why does this have a low rating ??? they are literally so adorable >< it's been a while since i've seen this dynamic wherein the other person is secretly crushing on his friend while his friend knew it the whole time but i think the unique thing abt it is that motoki is a playboy but like not the red flag type, he's an innocent puppy-like playboy while shuji is the smart and stern one but not the dense type~ he knows and is aware of motoki's feelings he kind of took advantage of it at first but i mean he reciprocated it after fully coming to terms with his feelings so i'm not mad abt it :)) i think their whole friend group is so adorable >< i just love how different their personalities are but they're still very compatible with each other >< i love how shuji opened up abt his past "trauma" not necessarily trauma but like the reason why he distanced himself when motoki offered to do it~ but i must admit, that part was a bit fast lol since they both just confirmed their feelings :'D anyway i still liked it, i enjoyed their adorable relationship as well as their friend group's friendship <33 i wish we got to see more dating scenes but i'm still pretty satisfied bc i got wholesome cuddle scenes ❣️ i also love the art style !! its so gorgeous this was a cute and fun read !!
