Art is pretty stiff and man were the characters expressionless. It was fine. Story was pretty rushed and I'm sad woosol being a tattoo artist didn't REALLY come into play. Also how you be a tattoo artist and only have one tattoo cmon. It's not like a requirement but only having 2 tattoos shown is sad 4/10

Okay but someone explain to me why in every bl I've read recently someone ghosts the other. Can yall at least be like.... SAY smth first??? 6/10

Love So Pure

Complete | PlanB | 2000 released

Hands down most impressive part is how the story and characters still managed to have fun and be happy despite all the heavy, dark, and often violent lives they had to live. They all hang out and talk to each other about their problems. Everyone gets character development that helps them become happier. They're just one big supportive family in the end and I love them. Update ch 17. Dude this girl fucking sucks. You dont just out people like that and what the hell did she mean by "wants to do that" after watching someone else's nonconsensual sex tape WTH Update ch 34. I genuinely was not expecting to Sohae's character growth. A lot of it obviously happens off screen but I went from hating this girl to being sympathetic to laughing at her dynamic with the new group. I love Yosef being so crassly supportive and just chillin on the couch while they discuss how Jihyun should confess to Yohan. The characters lives and history are so heavy yet they're so fun. I'm scared for season 2. Pls just let them be happy Update ch 54. HELL yeah season 2 is about yosef and daeshik! Bruh yosef is so gentle and massive his hand is as wide as Daeshik's waist Update ch 87. They are a TEAM! They are FRIENDS! They are WORKING together and getting THERAPY and IMPROVING their COMMUNICATION and EXPRESSING THEMSELVES and I'm so fucking happy and why they hell is there still 20 chapters bro I'm scared pls just let them be happy Update ch 113. BRO I LOVW THEM ALL SO MUCH!!! All their silly little antics, the fact that they're all such sweet friends, all of it! Maybe my one complaint is that everyone got paired romantically in the end, and it felt unnecessary. One of these days we'll get aro / ace rep. Also gimme scruffy Yosef back I liked his longer hair 9/10 but seriously debating a 10/10

Muhyeok and Naui: My Irresistible Neighbor

Complete | Nalchi, Gimmgim, Flying Fish | 2023 released

Nahhhhhhhh nahhhhhhhhh the seme freaking sucked and the sex comes out of nowhere. Like, imo, theres no indication that the seme is interested in the uke sexually or romantically, and also pretty sure he was straight??? Since he mentioned having to ask his gay friends??? Too abrupt, zero chemistry, uke clearly hates his guts. Waste of a hot tattooed seme -/10

Itoshiki Ningyo

Ongoing | Hijiki | 2019 released

I'll be honest, I thought something more would happen given the story had like... curses and fish spirits and spirit mediums, but it was kinda... standard? Idk a little disappointed in the supernatural element because this felt like a unique yokai type story. Mm 4/10 for the disappointment
