Sugar ❀'s manga / #Bittersweet(9)

P: Yeon-Ho, accidentally broke a wall while he moves stuff into a new house. He ends up finding a diary of Jae-ha, and remembers about the day he died, which was a memory he really wanted to erase. He can communicated with Jae-ha via the old telephone, but Jae-ha doesn’t really know who Yeon-Ho is. O: So many feels OMFG THAT MOMENT WHEN JAE-HA GOT HIT BY A TRUCK AGAIN AGHGHGHGHHGHG OMFG.. so close.. yet so far D: This manga is a tragedy, it’s pretty interesting and keeps ending on cliffhangers. Rereading... C6 - ok no offence but Yeonho is awfully sentimental towards someone who he barely interacted with... C9 - ahh shit man... I remember how this ends... C10 - Man TT C12 - It's nice to see Yeonho resolving things thanks to Jaeha's influence C13 - "I shouldn't have let him go then, if he leaves just like that, I'll probably live my whole life in regret" oh boy Jaeha... if only you knew what'll happen. Idk the right word but Yeonho may be delusional and just randomly believing in these illusions... nvm C14 - oh no... going through Jaeha's thoughts is heartbreaking... C15 - NO SHOT WAS THAT JAEHA?? BRO WHY DID THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN TO YEONHO FML . It was nice that they had an alternative ending, but either way I think there could've been a better ending tbh. I wasn't a fan of either ending. The first ending was so random and unexplained - I thought Jaeha died? Or did Yeonho merely see someone who resembled Jaeha? How convenient that a truck came in at that moment bruh. The second ending also felt half-assed as it made everything just a long dream... This manhwa was interesting and heartbreaking, but the execution was not great - the endings were shit and confusing. There is more potential e.g. Yeonho being completely delusional all along. 5-->4

P: I Thot You Was a Toad [12961]: Nishina, newly divorced, accidentally bumps into the high school lover he cruelly threw away, Miyama, at the café Miyama now runs, and all his longing is rekindled. The question is whether Miyama can ever forgive him. O: Honestly this has been lurking somewhere deep in my mind. I barely remember this story, but after reading this synopsis I remember vaguely. Tbh I don’t know how to feel about this.. I forgot since it wasn’t that significant to me, realistic maybe?

P: KyoZaNa✿ [2337]: Ch.1-3 Waiting for Spring - They three are close childhood friends. But only Seono's omega & often careless about medicine. Unfortunately, he's heat & pregnant with Yuuma, BF of older twin Hirono. It's awkward & painful situation for all. Hirono tried to cheer Yuuma up then later left home & broke contact with all. Ch.4-6 Genius Snake - Story of a carefree promiscuous Omega, Hirono's roommate & the weird guy 
O: The first story is bittersweet and sad.. the second story is weird. Tragedy tag. They shouldn’t use the second story as cover, it gives the wrong impression that the the uke is slutty, when the first story isn’t. Ahaha that doesn’t make sense -_- you get the point.

P: KeraQ [31966]: 1-5, 8) Sumito was on his way to a cherry blossom picnic when he spotted in the distance a man (32) crying. This man (Someya) looked familiar, turns out he is a teacher at Sumito's high school. Sumito spends his breaks with sensei and they talk about books.. Slowly, Sumito is falling for his sensei. 6) Yamashita works as a part timer and had to bring his drunk colleague Seto to his house. Seto threw up on him, kissed him and called for Megami while crying. Yamashita is in the closet so he didnt get his hopes up until he found out Megami is a man. 7) Sad story of Yuu was in love with Asaya went they went to school but he never confessed. They meet again after 10-12 years but it is too late for them to be together. O: Beautiful art, heartwarming, tragedy. bittersweet, a bundle of many feels. Rereading... bruh what was I smoking?? This is not a tragedy LMAO, chapter 7 was... sht man... not a tragedy but definitely bittersweet... that is pure pain... This was a good read, but didn't feel like a 5/5 (used to rate 9.5 btw) 5-->4

P: Every Tuesday night, a mysterious man named Ito visits Kyosuke, who is a prostitute, and talks to him about silly things until dawn. One day, he brings a briefcase full of money and tries to give it to Kyosuke, telling him that he wants him to quit his job and do something he truly wants to do. O: This was dark and it contained rape but Ito was such a nice guy.. this was bittersweet

P: It follows the lifelong relationship between Kain Walker, a New York cop who has hidden his homosexuality, and his younger blond boyfriend, Mel Frederics, an orphan with a troubled past. O: This is complicated, not my type tbh. Rereading... Wow I can't believe I put this off for so long - mostly because of the art and heavy story. Although it is not a typical manga I read, this was very good... I am glad I gave this another try. Feels more like shounen ai than yaoi tbh. I feel for Mel :( I was pissed at Kain at the start, but it was nice to stick around and see his character development. Sad but good ending. For clarification rape wasn't btwn main couple, Mel got raped a lot. This manga addresses issues of homophobia and dark topic e.g. suicide attempt, rape C1 - Kain?? C2 - yikes so much went down in this chapter C3 - bruhhh Kain really be cheating on Mel??? Ik Josh is a model but bruh... what happened to Kain sincerely bringing Mel to see his parents??? Can't believe Kain did it with Josh, even though he is jealous of him??? Bruh Cain really is just talking casually to Josh again?? Wow... I feel like Kain is gonna let the secret slip... Ahh, it's nice to see Kain being more understanding of Mel. I feel like one of them will be killed at the end prob because of Kain's job since it's risky C4 - oh man that sucks for Kain.. Davis has such a cliche reaction C5 - bruh Kain is so hotheaded. OMFG I knew Cain would let Mel's secret slip :/ Ok ngl it made me tear up seeing Kain's mum slowly opening her heart towards Kain and Mel's relationship, so lovely C6 - oh no Gersh :( C7 - Brian: "Don't die out there" Bruh I don't have a good feeling. Wtf... what happened to Mel??? Did he get threatened? Why did he not tell Kain he's gone? Omfg this happened the day after their wedding too :( C8 - wait what if Mel committed a crime or sth as unlikely as it seems?? Or someone is pretending Mel is dead. C9 - aghhh it's that sus dude that asked Mel for the time in C7!! Bruh why does Mel have to go through so much shit :( C11 - wait was this this old manga where one guy was a police officer and other a criminal??? probably thinking of wrong manga C13 - this is inappropriate but it's kinda funny when the artist does the shake shock realisation panel C14 - WTF Luna is Joey's sister?!?! Oml Luna, Mel and Kain are ok now?? C15 - man I feel so bad for Mel :( So glad everything turned out well though C16 - wahhh that ending... bittersweet? :( C17 - ok this chapter was not related at all to the main story, but it was still kinda depressing. 3-->5

P: Nitta Shin finds himself saddled with a sudden, crushing debt. His loan agent tells him he can escape repayment if he keeps a particular woman company. He gradually learns that this arrangement might not be as easy as he once thought. O: Not much plot, but later on becomes more interesting later on. Has intense ‘it’ scenes. MC girl is so cute looking, also Rumi but she’s such a slut.

P: Yamada Torao commits suicide after the loss of his lover and wakes up from suspended animation 250 years in the future. The android tasked with assisting him that treats him kindly and with tender care is the disappointing robot of his former lover at a "30% reduction"...? An intense future love story about a stubborn young man who learns to accept love and pursues his aspirations. O: So touching and beautiful, a masterpiece. The plot is really interesting. 10/10 Rereading... bro it made me cry again... whilst it is a rather simple read tbh - not much worldbuilding/explaining happens, it is still touching. Ofc it has quite a bit of plotholes, but it was an enjoyable read nonetheless!

P: On the first day of Shima's new job, he met a man with a hangover in the elevator. That was his first meeting with his new boss, Togawa. Though Togawa seemed rude and crass, but Shima was drawn to the kindness beneath his rough facade. Both men harbored a painful past, but unlike Togawa, who was open with his feelings, Shima seemed unable to move on. What will these awkward feelings bring about? O: Interesting, it was bittersweet and was funny.
