bawled my eyes out reading this, aki's burnout and depression rly felt so relatable, his pessimistic thoughts even tho he had kuma as well - we all need a kuma in our life, their relationship was just ahhhh my heart he's so understanding and he just... gets it ;; - the kids were so cute too - hopefully we see more, extras or a second vol - i wanna see the ex and aki meet bc she was so winkwink abt it LOL and i wanna see aki's new manga or their new story tgt

subordinate x boss (age gap) - another age gap that im ok with like the cop one (30 and 40) and if starting with the official translation, there's more! (ch 0-5 after the first 5.6) vol 2 made me cry, ineed more of them tgt.. - official translation made less sense than the fan trans in ch5.6 - suuuuuuper adorable and introspective, honestly hits home how nozue thinks, honestly i feel like him and im a little more than half his age - i could learn a thing or two from how he and togawa face lide - honestly theyre rly so adorable and mesh so well, i love seeing them take care of e/o, in the past and present - nozue feeling loved when togawa gets the roach for him in the bonus is so cute - rly is just lovely - some slightly dubious wording from togawa regarding their sex life in ch 5.5(?)

neighbors - oh my heart, this was such a wonderful story, the way they support each other in their goals and feelings... ;; - super sweet and healthy, kind of adorable that they'll think of their first kiss everytime they hear that song - mm the courage it takes to take a step back from what used to be your dream... im glad he has yorito to back him up just like akitoki backed him up - glad he's still going to write for fun ;;

The Eve Festival

Complete | Pharmacy | 2019 released

students (class prez x delinquent-ish) (tw: pedo teacher relationship, luckily not shown it for too many chapters and he gets dealt with accordingly) - first of all idc if the teacher helped get him out of a bad situation why the fuck are u sleeping w ur student u sicko, i need him GONE - feels like ch3+7 were missing dialogue+pages - feels like it's a lil time skipey - ch 12 ill CRYYYYYY they can be so thoughtful with their words n the HUG - im glad he realized how messed up their "relationship" was and thought it over clearly - ch13 his SMILEEE WHEN GILSUNG RAN TO THE WATER - so wild i think u basically dont know mc's name until ch14... jungwon... they dont call him by name rly - gilsung is sooooo cute and theyre ADORABLE once theyre tgt - ewww the teacher saw them being cute and cuddly THANK GODDDD JUNGWON EXPRESSED HIMSELF AND TOOK GILSUNG AND LEFT - appreciate gilsung's friend for speaking out too even if he was real rude abt it, he's right the teacher should be reported - im glad they treat the "relationship" btwn the teacher and jungwon as a horrible thing, everyone is rightfully aghast, esp gilsung and jungwon's mom's reactions and the bearded teacher - oh his mom ill cry she just was trying to do her best for her son OHHH - its pretty realistic in how things would probably be handled, im cryin a lil, they cant even keep in contact? sobs - i just want them to be happy and together... "it's been night for me ever since" IM CRYING - jumpscare i thought that gilsung had a gf and they were being nonchalant abt it LOL even tho she SAID HIS NAME... TWICE - "before its too late... atp how many years had it been damn jungwon... - do you know bts im going to scream LOL - ugh i so badly wanted more of them lovey dovey... esp since we saw gross teacher w jungwon in bed...
