It’s okay. Don’t worry. The fact you’re telling him to not live you because of how selfish and dirty you are proves that you DO care about his feelings toward those type of things.

Unripened Expression
Comic sans? XDDD I LOVE IT THEHOT GUY IS THE GAY FRIEND OMG. i know theresa like 4 ppl for him to pick from right? I wanna read more but igtg… it’s already so late.. T..T… idkkkkk hic2 was recs for this and i’m getting good vibes i loves it Omg stranger danger n online safety idk why he said his school (it’s fictional XD) but omgggg he’s SO CUTE i think he has a crush on him or smth or he sees him n thinks he’s his type..!!!!???????? ALSO HE LOOKS JUSUSUSUSUSUST LIKE JUN KUN FROM ENSTARS :333 Rn i like him w the mc but i’m like 99% sure the red head is coming back to be da lifelong bc i’m NOT checking da pics to spoil myself imma be totally spoiler free O.M.G. i really hope jun kun gets w mc. So cute. What redhead said when he was younger was out of fucking pocket also he’s a prickI THINK… i might love him OMG TTTTT JUN KUN…. his backstory…! i’m sure the dude actually does/did like him but is pretending so when he dies or smth bad happens to him that jun kun doesn’t care..? Idfk i just want the best for poor jun kun. :,( JUN KUN, AISHITERU!!!!!!!! Red head is hyaaaa oo la laaaa ngl maybe jun kun can get w the bsf who ‘snitched’ on accident bc he was curious n probs likes dudes too and redhead w mc although i’m starting to think it’s gunna be jun kun x mc cuz redhead was a flipping cunt!!! Idkkk JUN IUN ADMITTED IT YAYAYYA AND I THINK KARAM WAS AB TO SAY HES BI j wanna see who gets w mc so bad! Please I WANT JUN KUN…. I LIVE LOVE ADVICE TROPES TT HE DOESNT END UP WITH JUN KUN NOOOOOOOOOOOO TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT nooooo i’m crying i seriously really shipped him with juuunnnnn…. well i asked for recs to fill this void and imma read them all OMG I SAID I WOULDNY PICK SIDES SO I COULD BE HAPPY AT THE END BUT….. TT.TT I WANT TO KILL MYSELF. WE KNOW MOTHIMG ABOUT KARAM AND WE KNOW ALL OF JUNSEOS PAST. SO WHAT THE FUCK? SERIOUSLY??!! WHY COULDNT IT BE LJKE HEESU?? AND THE DREAM JUNSEO HAD, I LIKE YOUR RUDENESS, I LIKE UOUR IDIOCY, IDIOT… RUDE… LIKE YES! THATS THE TROPE WE LOVE! NOT THE ONE THAT WAS DEVELOPED RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING LF THE STORY, AND THE PERSON CONFESSED TO WADNT GAY, SHOWING HOW REAL THE STORY IS? SUDDENYL CHILDHOOD FRIEND COMES BACM FLR ROUND 2, MR STRAIGHT KS SUDDENLY GAY AND NOT ONLY THAT BUT INTI MC??? ABD JUNSEO??? LIKED HIM??? ALWAYS?!!?, AND RIGHTFULLY SO!!!!! GOOOOOOOOD GOD JM SO FUCKING PISSED OFF RIGHT KOW. AND IM CRYING TOO. FUCK THIS. I HATE LOVE RIVALRY (jk it’s spicy and juicy drama, but it’s obviously more fun when your ship lasts).. in my imagination it’s with junseo. He’s the perfect man. If u don’t want him i’ll gender change and have it. Also da random implied s e x at the end like ewwww they seem SO incompatible and basic… like a couple that would break up after a month or so… straight ppl.. GODDDDDDDAAAAAAMMNNNNIIIIIIITTTT!!!!!!! POOR JUNSEO. I LOVE YOU! Here is my rant i wrote that i’m too embarrassed to comment: You know what i’m back here again to rant about why junseo should have been with the MC. FIRST OFF ALL the whole thing about ka-ram is that he made the story realistic: MC confesses to him, and ka-ram just wants to stay friends. He’s respectful about it and stuff right? Showing that, hey dude not everyone’s gonna be freakkin gay let alone into you!! And that could have been MC’s moment to get over him or go for someone else. SECOND OF ALL we literally know junseo’s past… WE KNOW THE WHOLE THING. what do we know about ka-ram? LITERALLY NOTHING. He was developed on at the very very beginning of the story ig with the whole bullying thing but that’s it. And we got CHAAAAPTERS dedicated to junseo and his depressing past… which leads me on the third point, HE DESEEEEERVES a good ending because of that past. What’s the point of showing us that he has trauma from relationships if we aren’t gonna see him experience a good one?! HECK he could have at least gotten with the mc’s bestie (i forgor his name the dude with orange hair) since they also had a lil something something going on… BUT NO?!! Like cmon. FOURTH OF ALL, the dynamics.. that dream junseo had that was like, ‘idiot… rude…’ LIKE YES THATS WHAT WE WANT ITS WHAT WE ARE ALL HERE FOR. blondie and ka-ram are just awkward… they don’t even know eachother very well and yes i’m sure they’ll get along well but we as the readers didn’t see much of them ig? Like if they were ever in a scene together during the majority of the story, it was blondie being head over heels and ka-ram being clueless which got boring. In contrast, blondie got along sooo well with junseo and they were always playful and teasing. yes i’ll acknowledge that blondie does not like junseo and only wants to be friends, but, if my memory doesn’t fail me, he DID get overwhelmed by him numerous times and blushed. And seriously cmon, how many bl have u read with unrequited loves that end up together bc they spend time together and develop? Could that have not been the case easily here? In conclusion, i’m so sure the author did this on purpose to fuck with us all.
Form of Sympathy
Even tho this is being continued ofc i have to read it for yuri. :3 (update, i’m actually reading this at a time where it JUSTTT finished lol) It’s so adultish and angsty. I absolutely LOVE IT. So cute. I hope yuri didnt rape the teacher just now tho i would actually kms I absolutely love how yuri always goes back for the teacher. He’s so cold and would easily leave anyone else but he ALWAYS goes back even tho he’s angry lolol(i forgot o say this earlier but i’m already on ch 40 smh). I also really love the teacher blushing it’s so cute i know his name is mr lee btw i just say the teacher bc yes..! Also yuri being into his sister who’s biologically his cousin ain’t that weird to me because of my family tree lol i actually couldn’t care less about cousins marrying eachother it’s just personally not for me it’s gross to imagine myself with any of my relatives but if someone else does then whatever it’s not affecting me ig we’ll just have another retard in the family tree. Tangent After 2 seasons and almost halfway, we are developing on da romance ladies n gentlemen! I was really interested in both yuri and mr lees backstories this time around and seeing them develop so i don’t mind the slow pace. I understand why they have to but yk it can be hella annoying at times lol.. they have such an unhealthy relationship tho XDD (i guess any relationship w yuri would be unhealthy bc he’s so toxic) Damn they rlly said 75 is gonna be the last one but it’s 120….. and wow this love is in the shape of sympathy is deep af. lolol mr lee has had that bandage since the very beginning of the story when the books dropped on him… XDDD ok but i love seeing moogyung and yohan AND THE PLUSHIE WAS FJFJFJDJS but too bad he’s going to military… but you know what they’re such a natural couple they’re like literally a married couple who don’t care anymore but still love eachother very much esp puppy yohan i love that omg yuri is so abusive lol… A comment put it like this, “ The development from anger, to sympathy and love is enough for me to say that it was a great experience, even though we are not talking about a healthy relationship.” i love that. No more eye bags…my sweet sunwoo Omgg.. SunWoo got better at the expense of Yuri… That’s shown by the packing of the fingers… No 0000, your ETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTtttttb.tw.spacebtw.I wrote this with voice to text because I’m too lazy right now and I’m really sad because of Yuri but he is clearly very abusive. You know the thing about please don’t leave. Please don’t leave to someone that’s basically mentally ill as well, especially Mr Lee who is like really overbearing and like I don’t know how to say but like he’s really good gracious, and like he doesn’t take words very well like it’s a bit like it shows in the joke thingy when he’s like. Oh well funny joke or a funny joke like he’s self-conscious I guess anyway yeah thanks text to speech I mean speech to text Omg thru got tigether i cried …….. the green car easy to spot……. TT When i realised he was getting hurt on purpose my jaw dropped..lol To hell with responsibility let’s just bang.. couldn’t have said it better myself︎ Oh god,,, oh fucking god… i’m sobbing i even recorded this ad well,,,, god dammit i love them so much… they’re so happy now… good for them omg… i’m happy for them just sad for myself……. omg i love them so much,,,, i’m crying i don’t want it to end… the fucking rings asksjddjfjfk,,,,….. they’re so happy now..ll my sweet loves,,,,…..!! i’m so happy…….for them……. omgggg…..i’m so sad i’m sobbing………… i really feel like i grew and developed along with them…. i’ll never read something quite like this,,,, and also moogyung in the military TTTT i hope there’s another story about like the sister or smth… could have at least made it like 130 not 129… i can’t believe i’m reading it when there’s one chapter left only… TTTTTTTT god i can’t I read some of the extras and some of the qna from the scanlation..when i reread fyl i hope to spot all the easter eggs!! I’m already crying and i haven’t opened it yet.. the last chapter.. TT GOD DAMMIT… IM SOBBING… MILITARYYYYYUU… AND IT ENDED AND THEY MET AGAKN AND ITS A GREAT DAY AND ALSO YOHAN CRYING TTTTTTTTTTTTTT I LOVE ALL 4 OF THESE BOYSS..!!! i’m crying so much… oh there’s gunna b side stories yay
Faded First Love
Bitch im finally reading this shit, I NEED A GOOD MANGAAAA ik this is gunna be good also no sex so yay I finished vol 2. I’m using speech to text again and I really like this story. It’s really funny like seriously it’s hilarious I found myself laughing out loud on MULTIPLE occasions. All the characters are just so funny and their personalities are great. I LOOOOVEEE Hashimoto, Aida, Ida and Aoki SO MUCHHH. that friend group thing is what I live for. This is exactly what I want in a highschool BL and also the character designs the stories like the way it progresses everything even the parts that are meant to be confusing or a misunderstanding resolve so nicely through a perfect mix of comedy and seriousness. Let’s talk about how the side couple is also sooo cute and like it’s so not fetishised and the love triangle did not go on for that long which is always a fault when they drag it on. Obviously they’re doing the whole denial, perhaps a little too much but I don’t mind that because they make it funny and enjoyable to sit through like, this is perfect (for me at least) and it’s just I love Japanese high school always ugh so cute so yeah I really love the story I finished two volumes already and I’m really excited to finish it. ALSO I LOVE HASHIMOTO AND AOKIS FRIENDSHIP, I LOVE IDA BEING SO DENSE LMFAOAO AND I LOVE AIDA THE TERRIBLE DETECTIVE I JUST AAAGHHHH I LOVE EVERY DAMN THING AB THIA!!!! Ong it has a drama im soo watching it until i get to where i am lol I love Aoki’s stupid ass faces lmao i’m happy to have met you.. TT theyre toocute That fucking 9 year DREAM FREAKED ME OUT OMFGGG GOT MY CRYING ….what are you talking about. I am on the last final chapter? Is this a joke? I am going to end my entire life. WHAT THE HECK OMGIGMIGMG I DONT wanna finish it. I was not prepared at all i thought the final chapter was 40 something because of fucking anilist. I am not prepared at all for the end of this im going to sob just seeing that final chapter i know there’s a graduation about to happen and i know damn well i can’t handle that shit. I am going to sob. Ok here we go . IM HYPERVENTIQLIATING i’m using speech to text again. I don’t have any energy anymore I’m gonna kill myself but seriously okay on a serious note, I’m really happy for them and the way it ended I’m really glad oh my God wait the thing about the rubber ‘it couldn’t be anything else but this’ it’s not translating my sobs. I’m back to text now, this story brought me so much serotonin i love each and every character, everything about it is spot on and perfect and hilarious. i wish aoki and ida the best living together ,,,, TT also ye im watchin the drama already this is my 2nd fav btw, i’m not rlly saying much and conveYUNG truly how much i love it but yes i loveeeeeeeeeee it soo very much.
Smells Like Green Spirit
I saw the name and laughed so i added jt in my list but it srsly looks like it’s gonna be gud lol let’s see Sooooo this is a commentary on gay people as a culture and how they are viewed speicifially in japan specifically from fuckin 20 years ago……. so bazinga!! The creep pedo teacher freaked my ass out soooo hard it was sooooososososoos scary like i’ve genuinely never ever felt genuine fear reading a manga, but i get what they r talking ab like not all gays r fucking creeps and ya some are it’s true it’s disgusting and gross and fucking punishable by law and unfortunately is normalised sometimes……… in japan especially bitch. Anywyas the blonde boy……a fucking kid that was like into him but not into HIM him yk. Idk what that’s meant to represent i’m not that smart but ye. I rlly liked that kid it’s a damn shame. But i shipped him even with the black haired kid. But obviously brown haired kid is better right dude this is SO fuckinf sad. the ending actually killed me like the two paths a gay person can take. i feel so so so bad for kirino i wonder what happened to get him to that. the lipstick pandora box thing is still fucking crazy. i don’t rly know what to say i don’t have good media literacy skills especially when it comes to manga but this is so so so very symbolic of so many important things it shows the journey to accepting urself and stuff like that and diff reactions u get and ugh i just love the friendship they had much much more than the romance they tried to develop. there a sequel w that creepy ass teacher pedo and even tho i like this story i am NOT reading that bc the teacher fucking creeeeeped me out sooooo badly i would rather not thank yew veri muchi
