stressedpenguin's manga / #older uke(33)

10/10 background characters Edit: I'm rereading this rn (on ch 35) as the official translation comes out and I'm enjoying it a lot more. Probably because I'm actually in the mood for an indulgent fluff fest with a rich hot bf x low self esteem cutie whose actually competent Juwon winds up becoming the fwb of the no. 1 model and fluffy shenanigans ensue. Juwon's boss is abusive and exploitative and I felt do bad for him. Aiden was very sweet and supportive. There was a bit of drama but not much and not too long. Overall, it was sweet and fluffy, but it kinda started to lose me halfway. Things just felt weightless. 6/10

Ch 1: guy reunites with his old art teacher years later Ch 2: guy runs away to Germany to escape a bad breakup and winds up living with a beautiful half japanese man in his cafe. Ch 3: a mysterious man asks a mage to heal his brothers foot. Once healed, the brother asks to become the mages apprentice. 7/10

Policeman with a masochistic side gets caught by his bright eyed puppy subordinate and they start fucking. Theres drama, there's angst, theres some darker stuff from the uke's past Overall solid. 7 or 8/10

Dunno how to summarize this one. Uh, seme is a 17 yr old model, who's genearlly known to be callous and emotionless. Uke is like a writer or something who gets involved with the seme. Uke is very pure and doesn't want sex without. Seme sleeps around without any emotions attached and that causes a lot of friction between them. Very off and on story Seme is a literally a kid (17 yrs, so yikes) and really struggles with communicating his feelings and winds up talking like he doesn't care which only makes this relationship more complicated. Overall, I kinda liked this, but it also irked me and I'm not a huge fan of adult x minor with massive age gaps hmmm. 7/10?

Younger seme kinda barges his way into the older uke's life and home and they fall in love. Not a huge fan of these types of plots. They kinda annoy me. They're cute tho and the uke being into sex is always a plus for me. Idk. 6/10 sorry

Its just drama cuz miscommunication cuz people here dunno how conversations work. VERY weird that the uke was so into the seme while the seme was literally a child. Uh. Overall thoughts: smutty and dumb? Didnt really like anyone here but the brother... ಠ_ಠ is chapter 4???? Who swapped all their heads and why???? 4/10

Ch 1-2: high schooler x his not blood related uncle have had the hots for each other since they were actual children. Wasn't a fan. Ch 3-5: Seme confessed 5 years ago but chickened out and said it was a joke. They live together and the uke is annoyed the seme hasnt completed his confession yet. Overall, 5/10

Ch 1-2: delivery workers get curious about gay sex Ch 3-4: a different pair of delivery workers start going out Ch 5: omega tops an alpha Ch 6: guy meets his childhood idol, former wrestler, and lowkey rapes him 4/10 for me on this one

Omg... the mom and son are horrible people . I feel so bad for the uke. Older man shows up at playboy seme's house desperate to meet "him". Turns out his mom who looks the same age as seme has been leading this poor guy on and is currently out of town. Playboy seme immediately takes a liking to the poor uke and fucks him. Poor guy Honestly, annoyed me a lot so 3/10

College kid seme is looking for a new place and gets wrapped up with suave and kinda an asshole realtor uke. Uh. Dont often run into ukes that have zero regard for their partners. This uke sucked. I was hoping for a sexy power bottom but it feels like he's taking advantage of the puppy seme's feelings. Maybe this was just too short to really develop the relationship, but the seme doesn't even seem to enjoy sex with him. That's a nah for me 4/10
