Lily Marble

Complete | Kisugae | 2000 released

It started as yuri, but didn't end as yuri. It felt more like "a high school fling where the girls are dating girls because it's an all girls school" kinda cliché, especially considering how only 2 couples from the 4 or 5 we saw even got together. The story really throws you all over the place with all those different relationships (cause honestly it would have been perfect if it was just a story about Aya and Risa), but it wasn't so bad that it made me want to stop reading. Just made it seem like more of a waste if nothing actually came out of the progression chapters of some of the characters, I say this with even more gusto considering how a few of them ended up with boyfriends or husbands. That being said, it's a good story, but it will let you down in the end. Artwork is really nice and the overall storytelling wasn't bad in the slightest. The ending felt a little rushed, but it didn't leave any loose ends so I'm satisfied.

My Princess Charming

Complete | Teunteun | 2019 released

Super cute story and very easy to read. I really liked how it started off, but I didn't care for Yunas personality, however I do understand that her arrogance made the story what it was. I loved Mins character, that boyish style with a cool and coy personality is such a great character trope regardless of the content of the writing. If I have to leave a critique, it would be how Min ended up leaving her first love for Yuna. I don't believe fake lovers should end up together to make a good story, while I agree with the majority that Min's professor didn't deserve her, I personally didn't think Min deserved Yuna in that respect either. I would have loved for Yuna to have ended up with Seyun, but regardless of the outcome, the story itself would have still be good. Here's hoping we get a side story about the professor or even Seyun if we're lucky, I'd be thrilled to read more of this story.

Sadistic Beauty: Side Story

Complete | Yunhee Woo | 2000 released

I can't believe I never left a review on this, I'm glad I finally came back to reread it because this is likely one of the best side stories I've seen. Not too many stories really wrap up side characters by giving them their own story, and most of them are never as good as this one. When I realized this story was about Gyerin, I nearly cried! Out of all the characters, she was my favorite and the one most deserving of love in this series. I was so nervous thinking she might end up with Duna so the excitement I felt knowing her ending would be wrapped up in this side story sent me over the moon! Gyerin was honestly the only character in the story who had any real development and personality. Sure, she was clingy, but not nearly as insufferable as the male lead. After reading the main story and both side stories (yeesh on that yaoi side story) Gyerin and Juyeons was really the only relationship I could 100% stand behind that made the most sense to me. I'm so happy she got her good ending, I love how they wrapped up her tale because at the end of the day, she really was the only character (who got hurt) worth caring about.
