Usotsuki Kyoushi to Shinitagari
uhm this was quite bad hekdhjshdjd both characters were red flags i understand matsui for lying just for the sake of saving his student but i think he should've opened up abt it sooner, he shouldn't have let it go further esp with him being a teacher :(( as for kuramochi, he's too pushy D: i mean i'm glad he apologized for it but what he did was bad jeksjsjd he kept using suicide as threats so that matsui will do what he says :< also why matsui bring a teenager into a gay bar and then proceeds to leave him ㅠㅠ like ik he did that so kuramochi could meet more gay people but leaving a minor in a gay bar is so dangerous ik the people there were nice but what if they weren't that would've just brought more problems for him ksjskjdjd also what happened between them at the love hotel :'> kuramochi putting an aphrodisiac without consent :')) then proceeds to fuck matsui without consent, again :'D now for the extra, why did kuramochi do that ?????? like i've read pee scenes and all of them were by accident but this was intentional which is so disgusting and bad for matsui's stomach hello ???? the only redeeming factor abt this story is that both of them apologized to each other and communicated plus the art style but other than that this was not it i had high hopes for this one bc it seemed interesting but- anyway yea i do not recommend this bc it was quite a waste of time they did become quite cute towards the end but it still doesn't sit right with me :< idek what to say lol but yea the art style is amazing !! at least they're happy ig ?? i'm happy that they're happy so yea ^^ meh read.

this was such a wholesome and cute read omggg >< i really fell in love with this one <33 they're both so adorable and i love how they started with being friends ^^ everything abt this was just so pure and wholesome i cannot ㅠㅠ oze is such and open-minded and kind person :> i love how he didn't question ichigaya's hobbies and he also didn't have any prejudice whatsoever ^^ ichigaya's the silent yet straightforward type~ idrk how to explain his character but he looks cold on the outside but he's actually pretty nice and very talented of course !! i love how despite feeling weird abt it, nakahara still supported the two and he was even the reason that they progressed~ though he had said some not so goof remarks i'm glad he didn't out them and he even told oze to be careful of telling others and stuff like that so i still like his character :)) again back to the couple uhm i just how unique the plot is esp having nail polish as the center of its plot ^^ i just love how it all started from there and they also ended with painting each other's ring finger :(( i wanna cry they're married ㅠㅠ everything abt the pacing and development were so natural and quite realistic as well bc u can really see how their feelings grew and it just felt so wholesome to read, i really enjoyed it !! <33 overall this was a masterpiece !! it was quite simple but it had a lot of unique details to it and it had a very wholesome and adorable feel >< i also love how attentive ichigaya is ^^ aftercare is important so i love how he prepared beforehand and asked oze if he was okay and stuff ♡ i just love them so much :'> the art style is gorgeous as well !! ichigaya is so talented pls i love how he posts it on his social media ^^ he can flex both his art and the love of his life >< this was a great read !! will definitely reread
Tell Me You Can Hear It
this was so cute !!!! and the time skip hello for a short read it was very satisfying and the plot was clear and well-made ^^ dokwon is quite the unique character~ i really liked class pres characters that have secret hobbies or just a characteristic that's very opposite to what they usually are :> ryeosoo was a happy go lucky puppy that has mind reading powers and he's a green flag >< everything was just so pure and they had a lot of cute interactions ^^ i just love how dokwon would act so cold/calm but then his thoughts would be the complete opposite the pacing was so good esp with this being just a short webtoon~ their feelings didn't felt rushed at all and i also felt their connection ^^ their both just adorable and i love how we also got a 6 month time skip >< we saw them graduate high school and live together ❣️ overall this was a really cute and short read ^^ the misunderstanding was solved quickly and there wasn't any annoying scene :)) it was very much fluffy and both of them are just adorable and so obsessed with each other (´ω`) the art style is very pretty too !! this was a great read !!
Ore no koibito no hanbun wa junjou de dekite iru
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
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 !!
Hatsukoi Wa Gunjou Ni Tokeru
i'm literally bawling this was so fucking good !! ㅠㅠ kengo is the bestest boy to ever exist :(( thank you for being there for yoshioka :'> this had a melancholic vibe all throughout reading it but when it came to the end please my heart became so warm bc of how wholesome that time skip was :'(( its like everything that happened was for a reason, their relationship feels like destiny (´ω`) kengo got his shoulder injured so he had to go to his uncle's music room since he doesn't have practice anymore and then he encounters yoshioka ㅠㅠ they met when they were both broken but after spending time with each other, they slowly healed one another's pain (╥﹏╥) no one talk to me they are so precious i feel like i'll really write a long ass review for this bc of how good it was so bear with me so let's first talk abt the plot ^^ the plot was your typical boys school plot but it had more depth bc both the MCs were going through something and i just think their dynamic is quite unique since as mentioned in the story, they are coming from different worlds since yoshioka was a keep to yourseld guy while kengo was the popular and outgoing athlete~ idk what else to say but the author did a really great job at portraying their pain and really showing how both of them are healing at a nice pace !! the flow from start to finish is chef's kiss （´～｀) ♡ now abt the characters, i'll first point out how nice kengo's uncle is !! i love how he didn't disclose anything abt yoshioka on his own ^^ he didn't tell kengo abt anything abt his past which is very mature and kind of him bc he respected yoshioka's privacy :)) also some comments were saying that he didn't do enough but immediately after he saw the horrible act they were doing to yoshioka, he got all the bullies expelled !! and imo that's the only thing he could do bc he was just a music teacher at this school and that's very commendable on his part >< if yall are talking abt why they weren't put to jail or something, that's bc they were still minors so of course they wouldn't be punished which is unfortunate esp now that we know after those things, yoshioka was abused once more and it was much worse :(( but kengo's uncle can't do anything abt that bc yoshioka never told anyone in the first place :< anyway moving on to kengo ^^ HELLO CAN YOU PLEASE BE REAL !!! we all need a kengo irl :(( wtf he's the kindest, most understanding, adorable, sweet, caring, etc. ML i've ever seen ㅠㅠ i love how even before he liked yoshioka, he was already treating him so well and he even bought him chocolates bc he knows yoshioka likes sweets :'D i love how he didn't pull through with that kiss with yoshioka bc he knows that it might bring back trauma and he might've been shocked abt it !! i love how he always asked consent for everything bc he knows that yoshioka is still dealing with his trauma !! i love how he offered to stay with yoshioka everytime just for him to attend class !! i love how he still went to the music room despite being allowed to go back and play baseball !! UGHHHH i still have a lot to say abt what i love abt him but let's just appreciate this man for making our precious yoshioka happy :'(( he did well in over writing yoshioka's past trauma ᕕ( ཀ ʖ̯ ཀ)ᕗ and we can see how much yoshioka opened up to him bc of how different he acts when he's alone with him >< esp on the extra story pls !!! i love how yoshioka's able to whine and express his feelings freely <33 thank u kengo !! as for yoshioka, i'm so happy for this babie ㅠㅠ i'm so happy that he's finally free from his trauma and he can be himself with kengo >< i'm glad that he's able to move forward and now he's living with the love of his life ^^ he was also the reason for kengo to heal from his emotional pain from baseball so thank u yoshioka !! i'm really sorry that you had to go through that alone but i'm glad that finally kengo's there to protect and love you for the rest of his life o(╥﹏╥)♡ about that rapist WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU ???????? rot in hell omfg i'm so mad what he said and did are so disgusting and the fact that he didn't felt ashamed or remorseful disgusts me D:< i want him to go to jail i just want to mention how glad i am that kengo punched the wall instead of that guy bc even though he did deserve the punch, kengo would've stooped in the abuser's level so i'm glad he controlled himself :)) overall THIS WAS AMAZING !!!! A MASTERPIECE I TELL YOU this deserves a higher rating bc this made me feel a lot of things it was a rollercoaster ride but i love how the couple were wholesome and adorable all throughout despite the angst and pain in the background ^^ i also loved kengo's friends pls !!! they're so funny and nice i'm glad they made yoshioma comfortable to come to class again >< i already mentioned the time skip multiple times but i just didn't expect that ㅠㅠ i literally cried just seeing them domestic even for a slight second :')) i love how different yoshioka was acting, he seemed to be more open bc he was never the type to whine even though they already had feelings for each other ^^ so seeing them act like how normal couples do is so wholesome i literally sobbed i wish we got to see more though !!!!! but i was pretty satisfied bc i got to see them living happily together and that's all that matters ㅠㅠ i also want to briefly mention that i love how the author made yoshioka say "i love you" towards the end >< it just made it more impactful and genuine bc kengo waited for that reply for a very long time ^^ it was like a sign that yoshioka has finally moved forward and put his past behind :'> i can't get enough of this i'm sorry i rambled on for too long ㅠㅠ the art style is very very pretty as well !! i love classic mangas this was a masterpiece and i'll for sure go back and cry again once i reread this definitely a "would recommend" work !!
Goodbye Lilac
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 !!
Oka no Ue no Rakuen
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 !!
La Satanica
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 !!
