stressedpenguin's manga / #friends to lovers(96)

dropped at ch 35 ish. was reaaalllly dragging so i gave up. also just not into gender benders idk. they also slut shame all the girls (including the uke as a girl) to hell and back >:( 2/10

man i always mix this one up for Fuck Buddy idk why tho. i remember not liking this. was there rape in this? probably? 3/10

Second story really got me man, all the tropes I love to death. First story (1-3): two friends watch porn together, get horny, and jack off together and it becomes a habit. they figure out they like each other Second story (4-7): gay hs kid (uke) is in love with his best friend and is jealous best friend (seme) is in love with this girl. uke finds out the girl likes seme and confesses, but he backtracks by pretending he's passing on a confession from the girl seme likes. seme can't stop thinking about uke's confession and after much good angst they get together. 9/10 for me

Honestly love these two. Super down to earth couples. Also can we just appreciate that the girl apologized for basically making Ryuusaki come out? It's rare to get good girl characters in a BL man. 8 or 9/10

unrequited love isn't actually unrequited. uke is gay and in love with straight seme. he goes after straight guys bc he can't have seme, but seme sleeps with him to comfort him after all the straight guys dump him. it's silly and neither character were really interesting to me. good smut tho. 6/10

it's got the "i didn't wanna confess and ruin our friendship trope" which is my favorite frickin trope. Also really good art Second story was meh. 6/10

I'm good with just the first chap

haha this one was cute. uke wants seme to lose control because he's expression is sexy and tries a bunch of things to get him to lose it but seme is too much of a pure puppy. good 6 or 7/10.

Hmm. It's good but also meh somehow? Maybe I just wanted more angst. 6/10

dropped at ch 3. art was kinda hard to read for me, wasn't invested in anyone. idk can't judge
