nini's manga / #Slice Of Life(416)

Mou Ichido, Nando Demo

Complete | Aniya Yuiji | 2000 released

this wasn't my cup of tea, i'm not really into the fwb to lovers trope but i did think that they're cute though there were more smut scenes than the emotional ones so i didn't get to feel the pain/emotion that much and the plot was a bit confusing and all over the place like i know its for comedic purposes but i was quite confused at what's happening all throughout~ also what's with bl plots that have their MCs fall inlove with their siblings ???? i don't get it tbh like there's a lot of people that they can like, i'm not really into the MC liking ML's sister but thats much better than liking your own sister please ㅠㅠ overall it was meh, there were parts that i liked and some parts where its just absurd and confusing but i love amnesia tropes i just think that the emotions here weren't executed well :< i'm glad that fuji fell inlove with kotou again but the fact that his memories from two years ago still hasn't come back is just sad :(( but at least they're happy which is all that matters ^^ the art style is pretty !! this was an okay read !! :>

Pink Heart Jam

Complete | Shikke | 2019 released

i've been waiting for this to be completed and finally waaaaa its really a masterpiece ^^ its really worth waiting for >< i kept seeing it on tiktok which tempted me to read it already but reading it in one go is such a fun experience bc it probably would've been quite frustrating if i had to wait 2 months for it to update esp with its slow burn the pacing is in the middle of slow burn and fast pace bc their intimate (?) relationship already progressed but their dating relationship just became official in the final chapters :> tbh i'm not really interested in these types of tropes but gosh i just love bith of their personalities and the plot itself <33 i like seeing bands/clubs having a big part in the plot and i also love their dynamic >< i love how the story addressed haiga's sexuality and how he got into terms with it by getting some advice and having a good communication with kanae ^^ i love how kanae never faltered, he never showed any signs of his feelings in the early chapters and i love how composed and nonchalant he is (hes so cool and talented ) while i love haiga's puppy-like personality, very reliable and friendly too !! i love how hes sometimes direct and honest but he also has some instances wherein he's unsure and shy which i'm glad kanae waited for him until he was certain abt his feelings bc he wanted to feel secure and that's what he deserves i just love everything abt the build up and how their love blossomed please ㅠㅠ its very realistic and ideal ^^ they have good communication plus their chemistry and dynamic are my faves overall this was such a nice and wholesome read !! very sweet and wholesome <33 mostly filled with fluff and it also focused on finding one's sexuality which is great ^^ i hope we get some extras bc i would love to see more of the 2 year time skip (╥﹏╥) but i'm very satisfied with that ending and i'm really happy for the both of them >< there also weren't any annoying conflicts and it was quite realistic all throughout :)) the art style is so pretty too !! i'm obsessed with kanae's hair !!! ❣️ this was a worth it read ^^ definitely recommending this !!

Sabita Yoru Demo Koi Wa Sasayaku

Complete | ogeretsu tanaka | 2014 released

this was really good ^^ i'm really into reencounters esp like this one !! i've read multiple works with similar plots and ig i do enjoy this type of set-up esp the dynamic between the MCs <33 the other ones i've read wasn't as graphic as this one so i really felt bad for yumi bc his abuse was so so painful and graphic :(( the plot and the vibe had a melancholic feel throughout but after they got together, it became warm and wholesome i was actually shocked when kan decided to let go of yumi bc typically abusers would gatekeep their victims, that's why i'm glad that yumi got to finally be free and be with the one that he truly loves ㅠㅠ i love mayama pls he's so adorable <33 he's shy, quiet, and ig a bit different from others (with his likes and hobbies) but he becomes really forward and protective when it came to yumi also he's such an Innocent puppy i really love their at home scenes esp the bed scenes bc mayama is so cute >< i'm also really happy that they also decided to live together waaaa (´ω`) i wish we got to see more of their dating and domestic scenes but i'm really happy and satisfied with the extras and ending ❣️ this was such a nice read !! i also liked the art style, its pretty i'll also read the other author's books bc this was a masterpiece !!

Kanga na Spoon

Complete | ike reibun | 2000 released

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 !!

Futari Hyakkei: Kaze no Owari Haru no Hajimari

Complete | mita ori | 2000 released

☆ this was a short one bc of course its a oneshot but it still felt full ^^ i love the unique set up where the usual loud one can't speak so the quiet one is forced to be the more vocal one their dynamic is so adorable and everything abt this just felt so warm and wholesome >< they're both sweet and adorable ㅠㅠ i love how it ends with keisuke being loud again and ryou asking him to shut up PLS he was just wishing for keisuke to finally be able to speak again idk what else to say i love them (´ω`) they're both so pure and you can really see how much they love and care for each other ❣️ i wish it was longer coz i wanna see more of them.bc they're so domestic and sweet but i was pretty satisfied even though its just a oneshot which says a lot !!! the art style is very pretty & cute as well i love it when the author draws keisuke's tiny expressions >< so squishy !! this was a great and wholesome read !! would definitely go back to keep rereading this ><

Futsuu ni Koi Shite

Complete | terashima | 2019 released

this was so good !!! there wasn't anything out of the ordinary bc it is ordinary romance except for the stalkers lol hsksjsjdj everything was just fluffy and i just love how simple their love is ?? idk how to explain but they just seem so simple and wholesome when they're watching a tv series ^^ subada also seems normal and simple even though he's literally a president of a company :> the pacing was so nice and it just felt very natural <33 i love how fukawa was the shy one among the two he's so tall yet so shy and adorable >< i don't get why ppl say he's just an ordinary man when he looks so gorgeous !! i love how supportive subada's brothers are with their relationship pls >< they're okay with anything as long as subada's happy :(( i just love every single character here :)) even the other higher ups are so nice ❣️ overall i really enjoyed this one !! i love the line where fukawa says that he'll stay as an ordinary man so that he can share his ordinary life with subada while being the only special someone for him ㅠㅠ they're so cute :'D i want to see more from them esp office romance but i'm very satisfied with seeing them being all domestic and adorable with each other hehe also despite the plot felt light and very comedic, the author still gave importance to the stalkers so i'm glad we got to see them serve jail time idk what else to say but i just really enjoyed this ^^ its just very fluffy and wholesome~ there weren't that much conflict :> also i love how they have good communication (seen in the extra hehe) anyway yea i just love these two >< the art style is so pretty !!! i love it this was a great read and i hope the author makes more mangas !!

Ore no koibito no hanbun wa junjou de dekite iru

Ongoing | TOKITA Honoji | 2000 released

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 !!

Konosaki wa Futarikiride

Complete | MACHIO Yu | 2019 released

this was so good !! they're both so adorable and their relationship is so wholesome >< i didn't expect ryuusuke to be that open-minded pls he's such a green flag !!!! he was originally straight but you can see how he really treasures his relationship he has with haru and of course you can see how much he cares abt haru's feelings and he always thinks abt what would haru like and stuff like that >< i love how their relationship still retained their friend-like actions but a bit sweeter now ^^ i really like couples who are best friends but still sweet and adorable with each other <33 i also love how ryuusuke would take the initiative in skinship and haru would be shy but would love to do it again >< also i never sensed any awkwardness between them bc they still kept the closeness they had even before they were dating :> they're both quite mature for their age bc they had good communication and their just so wholesome ㅠㅠ i wish we got to see more of them after high school and stuff but i was pretty satisfied with the ending esp ryuusuke solidifying his feelings and officially exchanging ilys >< overall this had a light and wholesome plot <33 i really liked the couple they're so adorable and their relationship's healthy ^^ the art style is very pretty too !! this was a great read !!

Futarikkiri no Oishii Ojikan

Ongoing | Wakonaruki | 2019 released

this was pretty cute ^^ the interactions between the MCs were pretty wholesome :> kazuma is such a sweet puppy :)) i just think their conflict was a little bit annoying bc its a common trope and the part where yukiteru hesitated to say his feelings bc he feels like kazuma will reject him when its very clear that he likes him hello ???? the first few chapters were quite bland and a bit of a chore to read esp with that blackmailing student D: it was taken so lightly and i just don't get why it had to happen lol it was so unnecessary anyway i did love the senior teacher bc he was pretty funny and i love how he became a catalyst to their relationship ^^ (even ships them ) overall i think the pairing and dynamic was cute !! i love dynamics like this one and i agree with the comment who said they have a switch vibe bc i really think they do >< both of them can be manly and adorable at the same time pls !!! i think i needed more development though ik they didn't get together immediately but i just wanted more connection bc it looked like yukiteru absolutely rejected the fact that he'll like kazuma but then suddenly he just feels jealous (yea ik he already had some feelings that was slowly budding but i just felt like it didn't have that big of an impact) but nonetheless, this was still pretty good !! i still enjoyed and i think they became a really cute couple >< you can see how yukiteru loves kazuma now which is really cute ^^ they freely expressed their feelings which i liked <33 the art style is so pretty and adorable !! this was a good read

Goodbye Lilac

Complete | yuki ringo | 2015 released

this was pretty good ^^ i'm glad after everything that happened, they ended up together and i love how we got to see a bit more of them with the short time skip >< i've only read one work of this author and so far it usually has this melancholic feeling or vibe while reading it which i'm surprised i quite enjoyed~ i love how katou waited up until he graduated before really persuing kasai, once kasai rejected him when he was a student he didn't persist and finished school ^^ after they reunited he still had feelings for kasai so he persued him once more :> i wouldn't say i was annoyed but katou being a bit pushy is ya know just a tiny bit :/ but he wasn't the harassing type !! and if kasai really hated it, he could've done a lot to avoid or even file a restraining order but we all know that deep inside he also liked katou's company ^^ the pacing was a bit slow but that's what makes it good bc you can really see how kasai developed his feelings for katou :)) the thing that made me feel "meh or :/" is whenever kasai denies his feelings for katou and says things like "if he was a girl" blah blah shenanigans but yea ik its normal for him to think like that but yea i just didn't like reading it because it was repeated multiple times but i'm glad he finally realized and accepted his feelings ^^ i felt bad for what happened to katou :< i didn't expect sata to do that when he was the one who broke up with katou >:( i don't like how he didn't even get punished for what he did but ig i respect katou's decision since he was the one who said not to report to the police~ overall this was good !! their dynamic's adorable ^^ though i wanted to see more of them esp on the time skip and some casual dating scenarios as well but ig i'm quite satisfied seeing them both declare their feelings for each other and the author gave us a time skip of them after two years so that's cute >< wish we got to see kasai's dad approve of them but just seeing them happily live together is enough i'm also glad katou didn't get any trauma whatsoever bc of what sata did :(( and i also love how kasai was the one who took action and deleted everything ^^ i almost forgot to mention but i really love kasai's lines when he finally admitted his feelings for katou pls !!! it was so genuine and heartfelt >< the art style's pretty !! this was a good read !!
