Yup. Just kinda.. too short to do anything. Just a bunch of tropes and not even the good ones and not well done 2/10

Just kinda... whatever. Standard plot and not enough time to care for the characters. Threw in a SA scene for no reason. 4/10

Nooooooo dont be a one shot I wanna see what happens next bruhhhhh. Short and sweet I guess. If it was longer I might give it a higher score but it's still a 7/10

Shounen Houkokusho

Complete | Haruhi sakiya,Machiko madoka | 2000 released

HAHA yessss FINALLY a story that focuses on the kid! Too bad it's short. 10/10 adorableness. I want more about this kid, hes a riot. It's too short to really give a rating but eh fuck it. 9/10! And a 10/10 in my heart.

Summer's Curse

Complete | Deulsoom | 2019 released

Aw darn that was so short. Woulda been a lot better if they'd fleshed it out more. Also would telling someone that you have to confess to them bc you like them... count as telling them that you like them??? That was a bit broken. Coulda had a lot more angst if he had to keep it to himself 5 or 6/10

Daehyun Laundry~ We wash everything~

Complete | Jae | 2000 released

Daehyun fantasizes about getting railed by a hot guy in a uniform and his dream kinda comes true when Youngtae, a hot young policeman party animal, moves into town. Things happen and they start fucking and eventual figure out they've got romantic feelings for each other. Honestly, this needed to be longer, cuz it was JUST getting to the good part. Also the granny that set Daehyun up with her "granddaughter" has some explaining to do. Only one REALLY mmmmmm part when Youngtae straight up rapes Daehyun cuz he's mad jealous... at least he apologizes.... i guess.. 6/10

On Doorstep

Complete | Chongtak | 2016 released

Pickpocket (seme) gets caught by a no nonsense retired cop (uke) and is forced to do some manual labor. To retaliate, he breaks into the uke's house but pa icks and leaves when he finds out the man's a retired cop. Then he finds out the uke's got PTSD after finding his partner dead in his house and that's why he quit. The distressed expressions in this are so good; I know that's a weird thing to say, but they do angst so well in this. There's genuine character development for both characters despite this being so short. The drama of the reveal is 10/10 angst without been dark or twisted or depressing. I just wish there was more to explore the semes relationship with his friends and rhe ukes relationship with HIS friends and his trauma. As a minor note, the seme's hair is on point Story wise, I'd give this a 7 but the art is so frickin clean and fluid it gets bumped up to an 8 so 8/10

Dotei no Ore o Oshitaoshita no wa Osananajimideshita

needs to be longer. gimme more of that pining 4/10

Teruteru Bouzu Tere Bouzu

Complete | YUKUE Moegi | 2015 released

Ch 1-2: Buddhist priest x his friend from high school. Lots of casual kinship, which I'd a plus for me. Rare to see a bald character, let's gooo Ch 3-4: kid at a video rental store has a voice kink for his coworkers voice. After a lil drama, they start going out. Kid is constantly red as a tomato. Cute! I like this mangaka quite a bit 7/10. Needs more from both couples tbh.
