500-nen No Itonami

Complete | yamanaka hiko | 2011 released

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!

Golden Days

Complete | takao shigeru | 2005 released

P: Feeling rebellious toward his overprotective mother, Soma Mitsuya, a first-year high school student, only cares about his violin and his hospitalized grandfather. On the night his grandfather’s condition suddenly worsens, an earthquake hits, sending Mitsuya to 1921 in the Taisho era… O: Complicated/weird sometimes, tragedy ;-;, interesting, cute, funny, beautiful and dramatic. This is old, but the art OH WAIT LOL I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE ONE WITH THE BEAUTIFUL GUY WHO’S PRETTY EVIL xD There were feels man.. I felt kinda sad and happy reading the letter OMG that black knight chess piece killed it. :’( Many tears were shed. Misleading cover of two girls who’re the sisters of the MCs. So many feels when Jin decided he liked Mitsuya rather than Yoshimitsu who he admired for being so perfect. Reread... Jin is King, Yoshimitsu is knight. Interesting how Kei also returned to the past C15 - man... so sad :( C17 - I don't think fate has changed.. C19 - aww that is a sweet gift lol xD C21 - oh shit so Yoshimitsu and Mitsuya have different bodies? Where is Yoshimitsu then? C45 - ahhh whyyyy :( C46 - omfg this is making me tear up... we haven't even gotten to what Jin was up to C47 - brooo the knight chess piece :( why.... Sometimes this was confusing, but it was a good read overall - very slow burn. Basically Kei stayed in the past. Mitsuya stopped Jin from shooting his uncle - it was a past regret of Jin and Yoshimitsu. Mitsuya slightly changed the future

Sakura Gari

Complete | Watase Yuu | 2007 released

P: Sakura Gari is a Taishou Era romantic story, ten years in the making. It centers around the 16 year old Tagami Masataka as he is aiming to find his place in life. While attempting to start prep school as a rounin he encounters Saiki Souma, the son of a distinguished noble of the Saiki Koushyaku family and becomes part of the Saiki household. It seems as though this will be the story of Tagami's life, taking us through both him growing up physically and emotionally. O: Man this was one hell of a tragedy, it’s dramatic, dark, beautiful and complicated. The art is stunning even though this is an oldish manga, and there’s rape. Damn this was super twisted. So many indescribable feelings. Rereading... C2 - HUH what is going on btwn Sakurako and Souma?? I think Sakurako is a guy if I'm not mistaken? Idk but Sakurako is so damn sinister and nasty. C3 - I seriously wonder what is the deal with Sakurako... and yikes I'm not surprised about Souma's dirty laundry being exposed. Bruh why did Souma have to rape Masataka :/ That was painful to watch. He clearly has feelings for Masataka yet he doesn't know how to treat him well at all! C4 - WTF Sakurako?? Bro this is so sad :( It's so depressing seeing Masataka hurt like this C5 - I had a feeling Katsuragi was slowly poisoning the father :/ This is seriously fked up. I had a bad feeling but Souma really does take into heart what Masataka says to him C6 - wtf.. so Katsuragi is a complete sicko too. LOL he's so screwed. C8 - ah my feeling about Sakurako was right... I remember this manga vaguely in random snippets. This chapter was an actual rollercoaster so much shit went down. This is an extremely messed up manga... I'm not completely happy with how things went, but it's whatever I guess... Idk about 5/5, but it still an interesting read. 5-->4

After spending some time he learned Higaki possessed the power of the sea which could bewitch & control people ...Higaki got scared by his drunken mistake tried to brush it off and run away but to his surprise got surprisingly accepted by kazushi ...who claimed to not bothered by his supernatural power.. O: This is amazing. I love the build-up and pacing of the story and how we see both their perspectives of the past. This really strikes you in heart. It's hard not to cry. So refreshing! Rereading... totally agree with my previous comment!
