P: KyoZaNa✿: Spin-Off of Never Understand – Story of Ayeon who was once under control of the bitch SoYeon and raped Jaerim for her. [Their story is on Ch.70-80 of Never Understand]. Ayeon is deep down a good guy, though now he can get over SoYeon but from the title ”Incorrigible” & the pic in Ch.1 page 5, I can’t help concerning the new guy may be bad like SoYeon. Let’t see.. will the history repeat itself or Ayeon can change his fate. O: Lol this was a nice read. Tbh I can't really remember the prequel... Ayeon is a nice guy.

P: being-you: Kiryuu Yoshitsugu's family has been serving the Saoinji family as butler's for generations & likewise he serves the next heir, Kaede. Yoshitsugu has held unrequited love for Kaede since he was a kid, but his master wanted a prince - someone he could never become-since he is a servant. Although he made resolve to give up when his master finds his prince..But what will he so when the prince actually appears..??what will he do then..??Stay as a silent fuck or do some fucking.. O: This was nice... but it wasn't amazing. I'm interested in Satoshi x Ichijou, will that be a thing?

P: Natsume is a hard working and serious office worker. Yuuki is almost his polar opposite, and someone that he never expected to get along with. But Yuuki’s kindness wins him over, and he falls in love with his carefree coworker. But what will happen when Yuuki discovers Natsume is in love with him...? O: This was ok, the art is nice. It wasn't exactly a masterpiece though, I didn't really feel anything from reading it. Natsume is so pure

P: KyoZaNa✿: Once Sakuma realized no one would saved him from being bullied, he started studying like crazy then eventually graduated from a prestigious university and got a great job.. One day he bumps into his bully Hayami who seems to not recognize him!? So a game of deception, seduction & revenge begins. O: This is very interesting. So hot, yet slightly twisted ah! I am really curious to how their relationship will turn out. This had potential, but the ending was a bit disappointing. I expected Hayami to get punished more. Still, this was a nice read. Apart from the ending. There were too many things that needed more detail.

P: I Thot You Was a Toad: Historical fantasy as a thinly veiled excuse for BDSM, slavery, torture, humiliation, etc.. A king slaughters all the people of a neighbouring kingdom whose king murdered his family, except the son who he takes as a slave in order to humiliate and torture him, presumeably as an example to anybody else who gets ideas, but maybe for the shits-and-giggles. So far the aggressive king is straight out of the Snidely Whiplash school of villains, all grimaces and "grr-grrrr-grr", while the enslaved prince is a po-faced trampled blossom who is pitiful, not just because of all the spectacular bad treatment he's been dished, but because every character tells him he is. Because of this, the story tilts into bathos and is very amusing example of popcorn yaoi. O: I didn't like this. 1. Bad art, 2. Long ugly hair, 3. Abusive seme. I only read 4 chapters.

P: being-you: In the night of a full moon, Dokyung runs into a vampire with blood dripping from the corners of his mouth. Haunted by the encounter, he tries to dismiss it as a dream...but not only does the vampire go to the same school as him, he begins following him around everywhere! Dokyung is horrified of course, but as time passes, he discovers some peculiar quirks about the creature: he prefers his meat well done, flinches at the sight of cats, and loves to cuddle. Who is this mysterious vampire, and why is he so fixated on Dokyung? O: This is very good. I like seeing the development. Jaehyuk is a bit weird... I don't really get what's the deal with him. I wish we learned more about Taehyun, he's the cool MVP. I don't like Hajin, he does jackshit about Jaehyuk. He is dense af. I ship Taehyun x Dokyung. I can't bring myself to like Dokyung x Hajin. Awww C32 - Taehyun’s story on his gradual love towards Dokyung ;-; Fuck... it really hurts. Why can't this ship be reality?! :( Actually, it probably can't because Dokyung has never looked at Taehyun that way. So glad that Sungjoon seems to be a potential partner for Taehyun. He looks so hot, and his personality isn't absolutely shit! Taehyun deserves the best. The way he's getting eye circles from stressing kills me :( C69 - DAMN TAEHYUN BE LOOKIN FINE C88 - wow ok what a toxic relationship (Hajin and Dokyung x.x) The ending seems rushed tbh. The art and story fell off near the end.

P: Shuu's partner at work is none other than Ayame. His ex-bully, Alpha senior from middle and high school. The same Ayame that used to call him, an omega, out and toy with him over really trivial things. Shuu just wants a peaceful life, but is that really possible now with this reunion?!?! O: It was ok, but the art and story wasn't to my taste. Dropped after chapter 1.

P: King Grey has unrivaled strength, wealth, and prestige in a world governed by martial ability. However, solitude lingers closely behind those with great power. Beneath the glamorous exterior of a powerful king lurks the shell of man, devoid of purpose and will. Reincarnated into a new world filled with magic and monsters, the king has a second chance to relive his life. Correcting the mistakes of his past will not be his only challenge, however. Underneath the peace and prosperity of the new world is an undercurrent threatening to destroy everything he has worked for, questioning his role and reason for being born again. O: This is AMAZING!!! Really interesting. The art is so nice to look at and the story is awesome. So sad when Sylvia disappeared, she was such an amazing dragon. :( Also happy/sad when Art saw his dad and mum again through that special magic. Lol Sylvie and Tess are so adorable! Can't help but like Virion too. Everyone is awesome! Nice colour schemes. Ew Lucas is utter trash. C101 - Oml that kiss btwn Tess and Art is so cringe... I literally died inside. C119 - omg... no way wtf... TT I didn't really pay attention to her in the story but holy sht... C136 - yo wtf... this is so horrible... f/163 dropped because this got confusing and boring, seeing Arthur get agitated over the fake Tessa just sealed the deal for me. 5-->3

P: As proud daughter of House Monique, Aristia was raised to become the next empress of the Castina Empire. But with the appearance of a mysterious new girl, everything has fallen apart: the Emperor has turned his back, and Aristia’s miserable life as a lower queen is cut short by death. However a second chance to change her fate sees her reborn to 7 years earlier! “Is this a dream or reality? Will my destiny repeat?” O: This is epic. The art is so cute. I can't help but love almost everyone! Except the Ruve (the blue-haired guy). Despite his handsome appearance, he is so unappreciative, disgusting and rude. What did Tia to do deserve his hate?! After she was reincarnated, I feel that he hated her because he was constantly compared to her. Even though Jieun looks so innocent, I feel that she has a darker side. She seemed nice at start, but she's low-key jealous af. And she doesn't do her duty as an empress properly. In chapter 20 near the end when Ruve thinks "What did I ever do to her", when Tia is trembling whilst drinking tea with him, it makes me laugh... yikes and chapter 54? So sad how Tia was traumatised and ended up losing herself. Ik it's not quite this Ruve's fault, but ouch. You did a shit ton of crap later in another worldline... This point was addressed later, which is good. I don't really want Ruve to end up with Tia, but it probably will happen. Allendis (green-haired guy) is such a sweetheart. Aww so cute when he ended up inventing white day. I feel like he's also hiding something too. I mean come on, he can't be kind all the time right? Yep, he seems dodgy/sneaky... I don't know how she doesn't see him for what he truly is. C100 he was revealed to have been obsessed w/ Tia b/c they were kinda similar. Lovely colour schemes. I totally ship Carsein and Tia, Sein is such an honest guy, it's hard to hate him. Jk he can be annoying, but I like direct he is. In front of Sein, Tia is more open and holds no fake appearances. I really love the art! So satisfying to see everyone's awesome outfits. Her dad is so caring ;-; he is such an awesome guy who understands and cherishes his daughter. I really like Tia, she's such a strong female lead. I really really like this manhwa as the characters aren't cardboard. They feel realistic. Tia is relatable, and so cute! Lol long gush. Ok I feel kinda sympathetic towards Jieun after C143... I can kinda see why Tia and Ruve get together later, but damn I still wish Tia ended up with Carsein instead ;-; I just don't see why we got such deep insight into Allendis and Carsein, only for her to end up with the same guy Ruve (albeit he's a changed man). ;-; Carsein.... TT

P: Wan’s got a face that scares everyone away before he can really become friends with anyone. So when Ha-woon befriends Wan on his first day at his new school, Wan is elated. Ha-woon must be an angel! It doesn’t take long, though, for Ha-woon to betray him in a terrible way, and Wan discovers Ha-woon might be more devil than angel. But then an accident happens that gives Wan a second chance at friendship with his angel. And it all starts with one big, fat lie. O: This is interesting. Ha-woon was so cute after the accident. So nice how they both still were together even after Ha-woon regained his memories back. Wan is such a cinnamon roll, but sometimes a bit too dense for his own good. Ha-woon's brother is a mofo. I wish it was longer.
