Bro they're adorable . I love relationships that have complicated emotional backstories. They've both been in love with each other for 10 years but the complicated feelings surrounding how they met and fell out made it hard for them, especially Toranosuke, to express their feelings. I love that by the end Tora figures out how to say wahst on his mind. There are so many little things about these two that are amazing. I love the whole thing with the rings. And also FINALLY a story that doesnt use rape, assault, or kidnapping ro create drama. The characters themselves have enough complicated feelings to make this an interesting story 9/10. Might be a 10/10 and not just cuz I'm a sucker for cool, gentle guys on motorcycles but the girls kinda sucked in this so I gotta think on it

Kinda sucks that it's one or the other but I get it. It was very sweet in the end tho. They worked things out together healthily rather than dragging out some angsty drama plot. It was very sweet watching Motoki cry bc he's so happy. Solid 6 or 7/10

Ch 1-3: seme's childhood bully shows up at his workplace, doesn't recognize him, and declares love at first sight. Seme takes this as an opportunity for revenge only to both of them in the end but it's okay they have a happy ending. Didnt care much for these two ngl. Uke was kinda annoying to me I am so sorry Ch 4-6: unapproachable uke x flashy outgoing seme start as fwb. Uke is traumatized from his last relationship because he got abusive with his lover and doesnt wanna be that person again. It's very off and on, very smutty and emotional. Overall 7/10 name on MAL is Renai Ruby no Tadashii Furikata

Ngl, thought the scent kink would be.... more. Goes to show how much pwp I've been reading. They're cute. I have no real thoughts 5/10

Seme works as a hairdresser, having given up his dream of being a soccer player. Uke has a lot of guilt for causing the seme's injury, so he became a host to earn the money and network to help seme's salon through advertising. Big angst from both these characters being simultaneously too proud and too lacking in self worth. I did really appreciate that the uke still uses his medical knowledge, although I dont think becoming a host--an industry famous for its unhealthy alcohol dependency--is the best idea... Anyway, 7/10 for the feels
