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 !!

Hatsukoi no Kaeru Shima

Ongoing | ayano kamu | 2019 released

i was excited to read this bc the cover looked soft and adorable and i was not disappointed >< the work delivered with childhood friends who are deeply in love with each other~ i didn't expect it to escalate to the the "helping each other out" scene lol but ig that is one of the common trope for childhood friends, though their feelings didn't feel rushed at all since it we can really see how close they were since they were little and they both already had feelings for each other but tacchan just realized it a bit later ^^ i love how wholesome their relationship is >< i love the whole vibe esp with the cafe near the sea and them being in an island~ i also love how nanami didn't stop tacchan from going to the main land <33 he told him he'll wait and even visit when he has free time which means he trusted tacchan :> and thats why i was kind of pissed at the conflict jsjkshsjhd its not the worst conflict but i just don't get why tacchan would feel jealous when nanami should be the one tbh bc he's the one who's left in the island while tacchan's in the main land who knows what he's doing at school right ?? i'm not saying he doesn't have the right to be jealous but its just the execution, i just felt like tacchan jumped into conclusions and stuff i would've liked it if the conflict wasn't that much, it kind of irked me when tacchan pulled nanami while he's on a call and suddenly sucked him and did those stuff i just felt like that was unnecessary :'> but the confession saved it PLEASE i'm obsessed with nanami's confession (╥﹏╥) his confession is up on my list of top confessions !! i love how he reassured tacchan and i just love how much he adores tacchan :(( he always compliments him and he's just a wholesome and soft guy (both of them tbh) :< overall i loved this one !! i also wanna mention how mature akane is ^^ she's one of those green flag third parties :)) she handled the situation maturely and she's genuinely nice so i'm also rooting for her~ the ending felt satisfying since we got to see them living together and being domestic though i would've loved to see them in the resto too hehe ^^ but i'm very pleased with the adorable ending <33 the art style is so pretty too !! this was a great and wholesome read !!

Kocchi Muite Waratte

Complete | Ichikawa Kei | 2012 released

it took me a while to put a review so i don't remember much but i think this was a pretty interesting one bc their dynamic was quite unique and funny ^^ i like how asano didn't have prejudice, but instead he thought abt it and tried to go out with kakei which i suppose turned out great since they eventually got together :> kakei's a tsundere type lol he keeps pushing asano away (which was a little bit annoying but it was also a pretty fun dynamic) but yea ig it turned adorable when they finally became official bc he kind if turned into a tamed cat (=^ェ^=) overall this was pretty good ^0^ i also read the extra oneshots and they turned out to be an adorable yet chaotic couple ig :DD the art style is my cup of tea so purr this was a good read !!

Shinigami wa Korosenai

Complete | Mikka Mita | 2000 released

i've done a speedrun read for the past few days idk why, so the reviews following will be messy and lacking bc i don't remember them that much lol anyway i think this was good one ^^ the plot was unique but i think it needed a little more push~ the development of the romance was a bit rushed on caleb's part (?) i mean not really since he didn't know what love felt like ig but what i mean was the development of the uh romantic relations HAHA but it was still pretty good !! no noncon/dubcon and i felt like their love was cute and sincere :)) i think it needs a volume 2 bc it was a mix of slowburn and not so slowburn lol~ anyway the conflict wasn't as deep as i thought ?? i thought it would be a bit more angstier but the fact that eiji waited years for him says a lot abt his feelings so i still enjoyed that ^0^ the art style is very pretty !! caleb is hot with/without the mask this was a good read !!

Bokura wa Nando mo Koi o suru

Complete | SEINA Anji | 2017 released

this was so good~ it was full of emotion esp on issei's part bc idk how painful that must've been to keep relieving ban's death and he also kept dying since he needed to travel back in time :< i'm so happy bc they finally got their happy ending but it does leaves you a bittersweet feeling of "what if ban dies again?" but i'm just going to pretend that they'll live happily ever after the plot's pretty interesting and their dynamic is adorable !! i love how ban's the optimistic and positive type while issei's the more stern one but he's actually deeply in love with ban >< they are definitely soulmates !!!!! the art style is divine ㅠㅠ i'm obsessed with the art, its so gorgeous this was a great read !!
