stressedpenguin's manga / #photographer(8)

got that don't wanna confess and ruin what we have. There's no true resolution but it leaves you with enough that it doesn't really matter. It's a pretty typical plot but with a strong atmosphere and it's my favorite trope so this gets a 7 or 8/10. Plus the art is nice. Them sharp lines.

Qi Shi has a scary face and scar that keeps him from getting jobs and making friends. Then he runs into an old classmate, Nan Jue, who offers to help Qi Shi fix his image. Nan Jue moves in and Qi Shi finally gets a job and starts getting along with his coworkers. It's pretty fluffy and cute. I liked watching Qi Shi gain confidence and make friends. They should've reported Nan Jue's abusive ex. I cant believe they just let hin go... :/ 6/10 name on MAL is Ke Zai Meiyan Jian

Uh light bestiality cuz the seme ruts on the uke while as a leopard. Pretty much porn without plot so ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Uke says it hurts a lot during sex which I'm not into even tho it was fine in canon 4/10

The title is basically the summary. Tbh I dont think either of them should be stuck with the jobs they had. They seemed pretty dang unhappy and the paparazzi in general is a stain on this earth. Subaru's manager suuuuucked. WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE DOESNT NEED A PRIVATE LIFE?!?! Predatory as HELL. Subaru and the seme were cute and smexy but the general story just pissed me off 6/10

Yall I was bawling when they took the photos with Jisoo's dad and then again at the end. I love that this story wanted to tell you how important photos are without ever saying it out loud. I loved this one. Only two gripes honestly: 1) Jin Yi Kwon was very pushy about sex. Although they did say Jisoo liked it, it did start out feeling like he just couldn't say no. Still better than 80% of manhwa anyway. Shout out to consensual sex. 2) like 80% of the story, Jisoo and Kwon only interact with each other. I always wanna see more friendships so we know these two aren't reliant on just each other. But again this was better that 80% of manhwa on that front too. Super sweet albeit very painful. You know how it's going to end but that doesnt make it less painful. But I'm happy for them all. I bawled like a baby 7 or 8/10

Very fluffy, wholesome story with lots of food and a liiiiiiitle bit of angst. I'm really happy Ishida gets to explore his own interests and discovers the right path for himself. That age gap was kinda hanging over my head the whole time. They're both adults and aren't so different in terms of where they are in life, so it wasn't wildly uncomfortable. That said, I'm just not into massive age gaps. 7/10

Ch 1-3 office worker is taken to an S&M bar and gets hooked on the bartender. Very sexy but he gets like actually addicted to sex and not in the fun way. Like it actually starts to impact his work and that stresssd me out . For that, 6/10 Ch 4-6: Airhead out actor falls for the hot DILF of a photographer and seduces him in the most innocent way. This one was kinda cinematic??? Like the framing and lighting was way different than the first story?? The age gap was big and uncomfy but otherwise I liked this better. 7/10 Overall, 7/10 name on MAL is Kumo to Saga
