Sugar ❀'s manga / #04-2020(31)

P: Benimaru's visit to Southtown is really boring... until he founds a nearly dead known serial killer. O: This is available for free on tapas. It is hot, but I don't really like the plot and art... sometimes it is hard to tell what's going on atm b/c there's no change in the colour of the background for flashbacks which is a bit annoying. It bothers me how red-hair dude is a killer and has a mop for hair basically... However I did appreciate that it's seke though! I am not invested in the plot. f/31 tapas, f/23 mangago.

P: Ohno Fumi is a poor 2nd year high school student. Because of her father's debts, she's kicked out of her own home and has to rely on her own connections to survive. Thus begins her life living with and housekeeping for a writer... O: This has really satisfying art, but I just don't find myself invested in this story. I don't particularly like any of the characters. I mean Fumi is endearing, but I don't love her. An age gap of 12 years..? I just don't really see the chemistry btwn Fumi and sensei. It's not bad, but not too interesting. f/32 Imma drop this for now.

P: When she was 5, she lost her mother. Since then, Ririko has to help out her father. Her father started a company of handyman. but then, something horrible happened... O: This is so cute and funny. Overall a nice read despite it being cliche/typical shoujo. Tbh I don't think the parts w/ Aoi were needed, but oh well. C16 p11 I hope Saiki didn't help Selina.. even though ik he likes her. Oh shit C17 Minato assumes they're dating b/c they both confessed that they like each other, but Ririko doesn't see it this way.... time for some DRAMA. Serina is a bit annoying... but I can't completely hate her. C18 Wow Nanami admits straight away that he aims to be Ririko's boyfriend?! Damn, how long had he had his eyes on her?! Even though Ririko literally only knew of his existence in the previous chapter. Luckily it seems that Minato notices Ririko may think they're not dating, so he'll ask her again. Ahh nvm Nanami is only aiming for her b/c Minato "stole" his first love. WOW. It seemed too good to be true. -_- I feel like he'll try steal her, but end up catching feelings for her later. And I don't think she'll see him romantically, even if he prompts her. C19 Although Minato says for Ririko to feel free to ask him for help, I don't think she will actually do so... I do like Ririko though, she is a strong person, taking things into her own hands! p24 - f*ck yeah! Ririko is right! Nanami is pushy af, I'm glad she didn't take up his fake bf proposal. C21-2 :') Minato and Ririko are so cute!! Ririko now actually knows they have mutual feelings. C23 did Serina really need to slap her??

P: A story of an oriental little dragon playing with a western black dragon O: This is very interesting! The past forms of Ao Ao and Ryan with long hair are gorgeous. It's also a bit confusing. Damn the 2nd couple's backstory has rape ;-;

P: Kang Jun, a prince of a small nation of the East, was taken as a hostage after his country was defeated by the West. There he meets Rosaline, the Queen who held great power and has absolute sovereignty over the country. As Rosaline’s spoils of war, she took him for herself and now lives in her castle. One day, however, Kang Jun discovered Rosaline’s political secret. And instead of keeping her secret, Kang Jun takes advantage of it and tries to use her power to rebuild his own country. O: This is interesting. Rosaline is the epitome of a strong powerful queen. She is so smart and isn't afraid of bloodshed. It's unique how the ML isn't so powerful, like typical FLs in historical settings. He does look good, but he is a bit infuriating... he's not that special/interesting, and he's low-key annoying/scheming. Prince Lucas looks hot as well, and is quite like Rosaline, but he seems scheming. Nah fk Kang Jun... he is just so boring and scheming. Literally one of the lamest ML I've ever seen. On hold f/53 5-->4 (8.5-->7)

P: KyoZaNa✿: Once the Emperor Kaizer ascended the throne, he has checked on eyes of all women in city.. Who would have thought, the one he's searched for, was the maid Tia, an amnesia foreigner who was picked up by Baron Noll 4 years ago. Anyway for some reason, she's treated badly, often being whipped, beaten & starved!? She even almost got raped before the Emperor saved her in time then whisked her to live in the Imperial Palace as a guest of honor!? One full moon night, Tia's body moved by itself just to find Kaizer bloodied, red-eyes turned golden!? O: C6 Dang I feel bad for Martin and Tia. But it was disheartening to see Tia be mistreated at his place by the others. Kaizer is terrifying af. Thank god Kaizer ended up sparing Martin, and now he works as Tia's personal knight! Atm I don't quite ship Tia and Kaizer, he is very intimidating. The art is not to my taste, but still ok. The plot is a bit confusing

P: "If you wrote me, then you can give me the throne!" Yoonsoo is the successful author of a popular fantasy series. Just as she's about to start work on a new series, Imperial Prince Einzen Kyte, the worst villain she created has kidnapped her into the world of her own story?! Based on the hit novel. O: Lol this is gold xD I wonder what's the deal with the monsters..? They don't seem entirely bad, even though they are intimidating as hell. OML the baby sludge puppy is so adorable!!! AHHHH must protect <3 C23 Damn I did not expect Stautiste to be such a two-faced person... she acts really well. C34 Omg the baby monster is sooo cute! :O <33 F*CK yeah! It's so satisfying seeing the monsters ally w/ her. I am really curious as to what they want to tell her. I feel a bit bad for Perrat, he definitely doesn’t stand a chance, but Vasser and Kyte seem more suited to each other. Why did he have to fall in love with Vasser? Ahhh.... he was so kind that he didn't even try to get between them. TT whyyy... I hope he doesn't betray Kyte. Edward (royal fam servant?) is sketchy as hell. It's starting to get boring ngl ~C70. C79 BRUH Perrat betrayed Vasser... I didn't think he was this kind of person -_- C89 - oh wait Perrat later redeemed himself..

P: A refreshing, unique villainess who's been dropped in the world of a novel, only to overthrow it all! The reason why? She couldn't just stand by and watch the female lead be manipulated by all four shitty male leads. The story of a villainess, who intends to throw out all the shitty male leads, and a wolf that only yearns for her! O: This is awesome. Melissa is such a QUEEN. I wonder what's the deal w/ her fiancé? Why did he blush when Melissa confronted him?? Does he have masochistic tendencies? She is awesome xD I love seeing her f*ck everyone over. C48 - It's crazy how Yuri is aware of the original plot o.o

P: KeraQ: Sawada, Oka, Hazumoto and Kadoi are friends in the same high school but are in different departments. Oka and Kadoi are in the engineering department while Sawada and Hazumoto are in the normal school track but they always eat lunch together. The pairings are Hazumoto X Kodoi and Sawada X Oka. O: This was short but good. Lol Sawada is dense af. The art was nice, and it was hot. Sawada was so cool. I enjoyed all the couples haha. Kinda reminds me of Encirclement Love. Rereading... yeah Mao (Sawada) suggests the sussest shit so casually, he really is thick? x.x This was a ridiculous, yet amusing read. 5-->4

P: Ruru Hikaru: MC was reincarnated in her favorite novel as mob character. She is a noble but a low level one. She acting cute and polite to everyone thus her stats in high society increase a lot but she got nicknamed as 'pet' aka booty licking instead. She determined to stay by heroine side but the villain is so pretty~~ O: This is quite unique, and I like it! Sasha is so strong - she does whatever it takes to survive. I love the strong relationships she built up w/ Rebecca, Arth, and the others. C24 p12 Arth: "You are much more amazing than you give yourself credit for. Don't ever forget that." Arth is so right. Sasha is really amazing. I can't really feel sympathy towards Lilith either like Sasha said. She just seems a bit off, despite her also being reincarnated and having struggles. Ahhh she had such a sh*tty past - her mother was forcing her to behave like the original lilith in the novel. I actually wouldn't mind this being GL tbh. Sasha and Rebecca really deserve each other. Meanwhile Johannes is such a lil sh*t. Naska is too cute >< I wish everyone got to be together with Sasha ;-; It doesn't sit totally well with me that she ends up with Arth.
