stressedpenguin's manga / #secret(17)

Enjoyed that more that I thought I would. Wish there had been something more with the friends. I feel like him admitting who he really was want quite as strong as it could have been but I was still proud of him 5 or 6/10

There's a reason why I have a tag for useless ukes.... this guy is a certified dumbass free loader. His most redeeming quality is being highly fuckable and having a hot yakuza bf who takes care of him I liked their dynamic tho. Like the uke is stupid as hell but it was still fun. For a yakuza story, there wasnt much drama or violence, so it's a good turn your brain off and enjoy the smut type of story. 7/10, story is a 6 but the art elevates it name on MAL is Baka na Inu Hodo Itooshii

Just a lil idol with a secret identity x fan thing. Pretty surface level but still fun to read I guess 4/10 for me tho

That was not what I was expecting. That kinda... hit me harder than I expected?? Aikawa was really, truly keeping himself safe by having these silly, spontaneous phone calls with a friend he's known since elementary school. The chase sequence was a LITTLE goofy compared to the tone set, but it still made my stomach drop. Aikawa lived a hell of a life This was good. 7/10

Hm. That ending was kinda unsatisfying. The manga just didn't have enough room to handle all the things it brought up. You've got a complex failing music career yakuza plot, reencounter of two people with some interesting history, and raising a kid with her own inferiority all trying to occupy the same space and none of it really got the focus it needed. Dunno 6/10

...Clearly I dind't have many thoughts about this bc I forgot to write any down after I initially finished. Uhh this is the one where FL secretly works at a cafe (maid-sama anyone) and the mean student council prez finds out but actually he doesn't because he can't recognize her when she's wearing makeup and put her hair up. It's just five excruciating chapters of him falling for her ponytail persona while ignoring her glasses persona. Not fun. 3/10

That... did not go the direction I thought it would and then also wasn't that... great. Bruh I'd be devastated if the one really good friend I thought I had turned out to be a paid guardian from my parents. The man got PAID to befriend him. I wouldn't trust a single thing out of this man's mouth after I found that out. Idk. The execution of this plot was a little sloppy, the characters didn't quite behave like real people in a story that definitely seemed like they should, and I kinda just didn't care post reveal 4/10
