apopoi's manga / #Coworkers(9)

The artstyle isn't the worst. I actually like it in some ways. The uke is a half-vampire who feeds on sexual energy (the essence). He was said to have had relationships where the said partner broke up with him on finding out his true identity. So he avoids relationships and is set out currently to have a sex partner. It was pretty clear from the get-go that the seme was into him from the very first chapter, he is also the one getting him coffee every morning He is an amiable person and is not the typical cold and rigid CEO or in this case, a director. He mistakenly sent a message telling his need for a sex partner to the director of all people and hence the plot. The director asks to meet up...the uke prepares his resignation letter since that's the common sense but they ended up making out. They eventually date because the director indirectly threatened his job. Now, this is the part that made me a bit surprised (?)..the director isn't a simp. He concludes that there is something that the uke is hiding from him, and his insistence on having sex eventho he doesn't like him. The seme's thought process is this...'Does he have a high sex drive? No, that isn't it. Just a sex partner? He is too vanilla for that. Something is going on'. The uke is also an open book, when people were walking around talking about vampires, his expression was odd so therefore the seme has all the clues now he just has to arrange them for it all to click into place. The seme's friend is the typical seme in other manhwas too. His uke is very cute. He is whipped for him, the seme's concern about his relationship went in one ear and out the other and then he perked up when the uke arrived. Before his arrival, he even checked the time and said 'He will be here soon'. The uke is rather playful too and places his hands on the seme covering his eyes 'Guess who it is' to which the seme chuckles and look at him lovingly. The ML also comments 'He is as cute as ever'. I doubt the friend even heard that. But what he said struck me 'Why are you holding back? You didn't care for the other partner's opinion in your old relationship. Just do what you want' to which he replied 'I'll go to jail if I do that'. But that convo flipped a switch in him. And he has been some teasing motherfucker eversince. Teasing the uke left and right and once he gets turned on, leave him hanging or sopping wet in this case. He gets jealous easily and asks what relationship the uke had with a coworker of his and talked about firing him and warned him not to take other people's side in front of him, otherwise all his coworkers would get fired. I mean I don't think the coworker was being just friendly as the uke implied, he touched his waist telling him that he lost weight, if he didn't eat as much. And that his face has gotten thinner as well while touching his face. That was sus, he asked him out for a drink too. The uke's friend that is trying to turn him into a full vampire was hilarious. Him telling the uke to just use the seme and not to get uselessly involved and fall in love with a human just to get his heart broken was a moment. Oh! It was mentioned that the uke can't drink blood, I guess cuz of the deal with him being a half-vampire? So he relies on the essence.

I like this. It's simple and straight to the point, it does all that it needs to do and hits all the correct beats in the story. The boss asking "Who's gonna be the top" made me chuckle since it was very obvious that Kazuma would be it with how proactive he's been. There is just something magical about an older uke×younger seme that tickles my fancy. With the latter being stoic or spacing out most of the time, not as bothered by societal norms. I want a Mr Inuma in my life, someone to take care of me and cook for me. He's so sweet and giving. Their combo works on paper and in reality too I would assume. Gastronomy, I haven't heard that since Food Wars (Shokugeki no Soma), with that short white-haired character. I like that he broke up with his ex because she didn't like the smell of fish, which was essentially her denying him his passion and so forth. Many might put up with it but damn he knows his worth. Also I like that he called it 'sexual assault' cuz it was and also him easily admitting to his feelings and naturally dating. I love how his co-worker wasn't a douchebag and started tattling to everyone about the fact that they were dating and is genuinely happy for him. It also speaks volume on the Boss's character that him extending his help and looking out for him was seen as something normal and not him giving favours to him cuz he liked him. It shows he would do the same for any other in that situation. He has been in that dorm for ten years as well so they might have seen him doing the same for others. Also, many situations point to them dating yet they don't even consider that and I think it isn't due to them being naive but simply them faulting it to the Boss's kind nature. Currently on Ch14.

It's smut first of all. The art style is really unique and I don't hate it. It's growing on me ngl. At first I felt iffy about the ML's face but then he looked different as time went on so it's all good. I also really like the MC, she's feminine, stylish, isn't too much of a pushover and the way she prioritise herself above all else is so refreshing. Their dynamic is interesting.. I mean right off the bat it was clear that Sijin liked her, but we never knew to what extent. Tbh I expected his past to be dark and explain his hesitance to be in a relationship but it turned out to be more simple than I thought. It was hilarious really. I also like the way he dealt with Nayul's delusional ex. The way he took her soju glasses and gulped it all down, then gave it to the drunk Nayul and she ends up drinking the air. That single handedly sold me on this manhwa. I properly read till Chapter 30 but I skipped to Ch 47 to Ch 55. I like that they're solid now.

This is so stinking cute!! I like both of them... I like that it focused on them instead of the stalker thing... Also misunderstandings occur but it gets resolved and doesn't get dragged out so that's a win! I also like the female co-worker being an avid shipper. The stalker I thought would be a misdirect but it turned out to be the most suspicious person. I like the way the ML's pheroomones is described.. I want that scent for myself ngl. Also the marking, imprinting and knotting aspect wasn't disgusting and dubious as other BLs so that's good.

Good so far. Office romance ain't my cup of tea so we'll see how it goes. The power play doesn't pique my interest honestly speaking but the fact that they ML's ex was got rid of by his cousin surprised me a bit. We went from 1 to 100 real quick. The grandpa is drawn so weirdly realistic that I had to stare at him for a bit. I do like that the ML is aware of her being planted so that's a plus...I can't stand the betrayal arc. I hope his cousin remains a piece of shit and doesn't get redeemed or the author will put 'it was all a misunderstanding' outta their ass

Basic as fuck. The MC's look is wasted on him...his face card is undeniable yet he had to be stuck with a two faced white lotus abusive toxic obsessive bitch of an ML. It's troublesome how much of a pushover the MC is though...you have to stand up for yourself at one point. And boy he's younger than you...ch3.

The lips are bad. The MC is an omega but he isn’t affected by alpha's pheromones until he did. Of course we know it's the ML in this case. The ML typically doesn't go for omegas since he is a hyper alpha something so he finds omegas who are horny and downright pushy annoying. But he has to meet with the MC whom he doesn't know is his Secretary because he's blindfolded. I think his grandma and someone else arranged this...I like that he isn’t betrayed when he found out and is delighted. Sometimes the semes take it way too far with the 'You lied to me' just for the drama to ensue. I blame the authors for that. That's garbage. They should learn from this. Take down notes. The art style isn't my cup of tea...even though some characters are supposed to be attractive...I can't believe it because look at them! CH39.

Everything is moving at lightning speed. The ML is a gangsta but kind hearted...I think. His secretary seems to be a double agent. There's Yuri apparently as well. Um the way everything happens feels like I missed chapters in between....also the scene cuts off and we're in a new setting all of a sudden. I don't get it. The writing is so ass.

This is cute. I saw a reel of the elevator scene amd wanted to watch this ever since. Sure I'm opting for the manga rn but I might watch the anime as well. I can kinda relate to Adachi, I always doubt myself and can come across gloomy so I feel for him truly. The ML being so patient and kind towards him is setting my standards so high. I won't mind having a boyfriend like him. Adachi's fellow virgin friend is very wholesome as well with his crush on the delivery man. I like them together. Ch10.
