IDKBTS's manga / #childhood friends(78)

A small village with a tradition of once a year marrying 2 people from 2 families...I was so confused about how there are 2 families that even after being married to other people THEY CONTINUE TO HAVE SEX ONCE A YEAR LIKE WHAT?! Didn't think they would address it, but they did with the 2 main characters's fathers - who loved each other as well but were forced to get married to women to continue the family lineage for the tradition to continue...it was nice that they had that once a year then? IDK. Sad. But seems that the main characters will be lovers - as their dads understand. Anyway - it was ok read, nothing special, gave a little old mangas vibe which is meh. I liked that the foxes were talking to the firstborn of the fox side family, BUT BRO IF YOU KNEW YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO HAVE THE CEREMONY AND ALL WHY NOT TELL THE PERSON YOU LOVE??? LIKE??? It was not resolved. Annoying.

Great premsise, childhood friends, heir of a yakuza group & his worker, becoming lovers! They are really adorable.

Yea…this ain’t it. Who would ever act like that when someone they haven’t seen in 10+ years comes on them having sex…even as a job. The way the uke just went from never wanting love to realizing he was angry that the seme left?? And then oh no I love him?! LIKE??? What??? This story was just not it. Only reason I put 2/5 is because at least the chapter of them being together in USA was cute, that’s all.

A quote crazy beginning, but it became very cute and nice. Just damn make want more chapters of them being cute and happy couple. Them both having issues with their families in different ways - making each other their safe space. Sweet.

THE WHOLESOMENESS IS GONNA KILLS ME. Background story of childhood friends, one got injured, second one blames himself. One has a huge loving family, second has a small horrible family (parents left, brother supports), one cares always for his family, the second works hard to support himself. Both care for one another deeply. Just such simple story about life’s hardships while seeing simple happiness in little things, AND UGH FOUND FAMILY TROPE IS SO GOOD. I loved this story, so so so sweet.

They’re all so stupidly adorable! I wish there was more plot though? The world building was quite weak, and it was basically just the 3 main characters and that’s it, felt empty in a way. It’s a cute story, I like the couple and the dynamics with the third character but it was just not that interesting or compelling I guess lol.

Ahhh…bittersweet love! Ths dialogue and thoughts behind the characters were SO good, felt like real people. The fear behind the accidental confession and all the times his heart was skipping a beat, going along with “straight” humor towards the friend he actually loves. It was beautifully written, though I did wish to see more of Ren’s side, and I really need a sequel of their relationship!!!!

There are good things and there are bad things. This could have been very cute little Hugh school romance story, childhood friends to pretend lovers to actual lovers…but then it became, um, very manipulative, bro really thought that dating the girls that show the slightest interest in the uke is a good idea! Yea! Let’s have sex with girls I don’t even like to protect the one I love! Genius! Thus is some trauma response that wasn’t properly addressed and was brushed over. The uke kind of just accepted the seme fake crying and dating girls that liked the uke…

First story - kind of trash, what is this?? What did I even read, bro became so creepy. Like ok happy yall can be smutty together...but nah, not my cup of tea Second story - better, but not that much better, I liked Kazu and overall I could actually feel feelings and chemistry between them, unlike the first story.
