muse ✨'s manga / #top 10 DJ(5)

Haru decides to confess to Rin, who grows frustrated by the lack of change in their relationship in the coming weeks, and thus they go on an aquarium date for Christmas. This is beautifully done and easily 2-3 times the length of many DJs. It focuses on the relationship build and culminates with intimacy, but as part of the relationship's growth and doesn't go into explicit detail. Easily the best Free! DJ I've read to date.

A pretty meta "Little Mermaid" AU that is super sweet and satisfying.

A festival and fireworks. I cried at the end when Kagayama says "Good luck" to his past self. Beautifully done.

Likens Rin to a cat that wanders freely before settling down. Sweet, very G-rated, takes place across a year. Made me all starry eyed at the end.

Iwaizumi and Oikawa elope in Bolivia. (this chapter is in the print version) The second chapter is about the only time they ever separated, at twenty, and Oikawa became ill as a result and had to be hospitalized. It's beautiful and I cried.
