Genboxxy's manga / #childhood friends(111)

Fluffy for a Yakuza trope, just that some plot points are too fast and it ends up consuming the coherence of the story like the tension between the groups or the sex deal with the main couple- there was not much substance as to why the uke just suddenly stripped and serviced the seme when he said the repercussion is inevitable, like didn't he dislike the attempted rape in the prev chap? Also the issue is not with the seme but with the oyaji so how tf will the latter stop him if as he said he will fight back simply because he likes fighting and thus will take any reason to do it? I appreciate that it focused on romance and did in a way that isn't too lovey dovey and gag-inducing however the other essence of the plot did suffer for it, so there's that, solid 4/5 at most 4.5. coz of the pretty characters and beautiful artstyle.

This one's sooo fineee. It feels so warm and pleasing I almost thought it would go the tragic route during the early chaps. Set somewhere Hispanic probs South America or Iberian. No unexpected drama, complex uke who really does give good insights as someone who's previously straight and discovering their bisexuality, the friends are supportive as is and not everyone is paired up (like some BLs), the straight one is just straight, and the gay one just gay, like a normal circle of friends. The seme is so pretty and patient too. Really, really nice plot progression and smegz scenes ehe, plus the art style overall is just so sensual it makes me wanna drool. Kyaaah!!

3.5/5 cute with really good art but a bit wishy washy with some drama out of the blue, plus that brother dynamic, wth?! don't care how close you are or how open or if you're all the same gender, being too enthusiastic about your brother's sex life is too iffy, even if it's the other way around with sisters teaching their youngest how to give oral, still fricking iffy. Just give some reference books or direct them to a video or course, don't be a creep it's not cute at all. Plus the undertone between the two is borderline incestuous too, I'll delude myself that it's some translation issue and that the two are actually lovers in a very open relationship that's why the other calls the uke brother too, still makes the actual remaining brother a creep but at least it makes more sense. I reserve incest n shizz like that for psychological or drama tags, doesn work on fluffy romance like this one.

Has the same feel as "How my daddies became mates" which is also an omegaverse with both strong characters ending as a couple, which is also coincidentally advertised by the translators of this work. Soooo good! I absolutely like this pairing with the lowkey possessive alpha who's determined to control his own impulse and the no-nonsense omega who can get worked up to fight well beyond his heat, the plot just fell smoothly with just enough tension sprinkled within.
