Calalaya's manga / #Perfect(102)

I'm so sad.....I lost my review of this due to a misclick.........I had so much love poured into my review........... Basically it boiled down to the main points of: Joel is gorgeous and such an original design (his large eyes paired with his curly hair and scraggly facial hair are the best parts of him imo, but his figure is also really beautiful); Joel's "costume" being an integral part of the story is really interesting, especially in how people approach him, especially Adam; the art is just phenomenal, the costume design is spectacular, the politics are interesting, the characters are well developed, and the plot is engaging. Also the author's asides are hilarious Such a good story

Fun, silly, and light - very self-aware and better for it. S'just cute, that's all there is! Ch. 2-4 update: Still very cliche but fun uwu

It's delightfully dark, and beautifully drawn. A proper fairytale I think, the perfect mix between heartwarming and horror

Well damn <3 See this is why I love tera and/or alternate anatomy - discovery can be so fun! Inviting someone into finding out just what makes you so different, even if some elements are familiar? Delightful. Also beautiful! Such great expressions. This is how you write intimacy <3

Micro and selfcest, /and/ Tiger and Bunny.... That's a lot of really good things

Ah,, wow What a stunning story, beautifully illustrated, and very slowly told. I honestly think it's the perfect pacing for it, it's a very somber horror story really, but wrapped up in day-to-day life of a very cute young girl. Really masterful It's also rather nostalgic, it feels kind of similar - in art style - to some of the western-style comics I used to read when I was young. I think it suits the tone perfectly Update: So I found some raws past ch.35 and now I'm crying Ch.35 et al update: Teacher is a stupid, selfish man and I'm crying for him so much, to his final moments he was trying to find a way to show Shiva how much he loves her To the end: Hhhhhhhhhhhhhh. A stunning story, through and through. Unexpected, but well set up, and beautiful to the very last. Wonderful

Quite well executed, fun and well-made, art included. I love subverted well-worn tropes, which this one is honestly less about that and more about observing them from a realistic standpoint, which is also fun. I think my favourite point raised was about the way people view the people they like as more attractive than they objectively are - Yuu brings up a good point that these gay lads shouldn't be comparing the men they like to ladies, since they like men! Plus the fetishization(?) of completely ordinary exposed skin kinda shows how weird some of these people are, looking for any excuse to get their rocks off from their interest's appearance. Maybe it's all the hormones lol

Gosh yeah <3 Just a girl and her bird girlfriend

Waahh

I've read this like four times I just need to actually rate it lol Aight, fifth time, final rating! S'fuckin' great, hella fluffy, and shows the backstory of KoiBo, what more could I really ask for. I mean yeah, there's a lot of Misunderstandings About Queerness, but it was 90s Japan lol
