shadows's manga / #friends to lovers(46)

the authors afterword was weird as fuck but this was adorable, chitose is so sweet and we love seno's communication pls

adachi my sweet boy u deserve everything, i wonder what happened during that yr that they didnt see e.o at the end before the left for italy? i like how it wasnt a love triangle, everyones like he picked the second ml but tbh adachi is the first ml for me so idk what they mean LOL the friend wasnt rly...lead idk how ppl thought itabashi was gna choose the friend

coworkers (TW: abusive ex) this author again!! ive read it before, dont know why i never added it... they have a pretty healthy relationship and communication skills (minus some stuff from miya's end bc of his low self esteem and insecurities poor nub ;;) - fukami is so kind and a good friend (turned lover!), i really appreciated their talk when miya came out to him ;; miya is also a cutie and deserves so much happiness, they both do - im not fond of how eiji got an apology but miya's just nice like that - speaking of eiji, i agree with other commenters abt how he was written pretty realistically, both physically and emotionally abusive as he was both quick to anger but also calm and manipulative

fucking bawling my eyes out wtf students but also.. not? (TW: attempted suicide) even though this plot isnt crazy out there, its still unique enough and sweet enough to keep it captivating - gaku in all his iterations(?) is sweet, kind, and pure... imagine having someone hold you so dearly after so long - my heart hurt so bad for kunimi, the pain he felt... reading it was heartbreaking and im so happy he can be happy now - absolute sweethearts... i want to read more of their mundane life and affection for each other

university students idk why this isnt rated higher!! i kinda love all the characters in the story - takashi is a rly good friend, he's open minded and gives good advice - masato is a sweetheart, he's thoughtful and adorable (him thinking over atsushi's feelings so hard ;;) - atsushi is also a sweetheart!! considerate and just wholly in love w masato - i do wish we had more backstory on how they became friends but otherwise i loved it, the hugs and lil kisses plssss

this is the most ive cried reading a 6 chapter story. i cant believe they lost 8 years like that but i sorta get itou's insecurities since... idk realistic but at the same time my heart ACHED so badly for nishi like being able to see ur partner pull away from you... AND HIM GETTING MARRIED... i felt the betrayal and akira is too kind.. im STILL crying abt that like i wished itou couldve suffered a bit more but they already lost so much time... pre 28 and post 36 were very sweet

screaming, sobbing, shaking i adore these two so so so much, taichi rly is such a sweet boy and kouhei is so gentle... im sad that their insecurities were exacerbated by ppl around them so much :(( even if those ppl (i.e maya and ryuu) did come around eventually... but yeah i rly love their love, how much they think about each other but they rly had tsome of the best adults around them, kouhei's mom, taichi's grandpa, taichi's senpais at sig-n - just some lovely people i think i actually cried so much, i rly did wish we saw more of them lovey dovey but this character and relationship growth was lovely to see (plus the last bonus ep was so cute) tho ppl did upload the same "extra" like 3-4 times lmfao - vol 4: theyre so fawking cute, kouhei was totally valid in his response to ena and i loved seeing taichi stand up for kouhei's character... they have good communication frr but im worried abt the new hire eugh - vol 5, taichi's dad is so disappointing wtf he keeps letting the poor boy down - i DONOT like sudo what the fuck is his problem????????? hes gna have a sad backstory ugh (idr most of the beginning) - i like that the other kid asked hsi brother to look out for taichi... but also whyd that guy give kohei a d-... wtf - theyre super cute i wanna see how they lean on e.o more

theyre cute but a lil more after they date would b better

todou was pretty level headed im glad it worked out for them

i remember reading this a while back, my heart hhurt for tomoya all on his own, hina is v cute LOL and kyouhei is very sweet
