Monster In The Mist

Complete | Do Hae- neul, Pong, and Derme | 2000 released

The plot is pretty good and I really appreciated the attention to detail. The MC is super smart and super badass with a cute group of friends hehe. I really thought there wouldn’t be a progression in the relationship between the MC and ML because they were so hostile towards each other, especially when MC had a thing for ML way before the current events, but it did work out in the end. For those looking for a “yaoi” BL, it doesn’t actually focus on that. Even the romance of the manhwa sets in at like 80-90% towards the end of the main story as it heavily focused on the plot. It wouldn’t say that the romance was slow burn because the BL aspect did kinda seem like an afterthought but I would say that the romance trope would be the annoyance/hater to lover type; there are mature scenes in the sides though.

Look, I loved the romantic vibes of the couple, japanese BL is good with that, but everything was going too fast, with some scenes and dialogues making me feel like “??”; the whole thing just felt very messy. Also hated the first time they had sex very dubcon and it caused the MC to cheat on his gf (even though it seemed like she did haven’t the best character).

Shisen no Toriko

Complete | Takiba | 2017 released

Really was hoping that Yokoya and Hondou’s were more fleshed out cos I like crossdressing themes, but this was more a collection of one-shots aside from Yokoya and Hondou’s story so don’t expect a detailed development of their relationships. Didn’t like the teacher and student pairing tho

This started out like 19 days with really short comedic chapters then progressing into a more steady plot and I’m in love. They’re all so funny and wild lmfao and I appreciate that 90% of the boys in the manhua are gay af. For a BL manhua, this might be one of the least censored out there with the inclusion of NSFW illustrations. Only rated it a 4 because the translations kinda fluctuate between being good or bad throughout the series.

Mr. Kang's Son-in-law

Complete | winterbaum,pesone | 2019 released

Idk if imma drop this one, 90% want to drop it but 10% makes me wanna stick around to see who ends up with who. But everything is just too messy idk how to explain it but it’s like not one of the characters are in any way rational and they’re all starting to become unlikeable atp (father and son are also so immature like you’re adults ffs). For some reason I was rooting for the old man but they’re all just so weird now, especially with the adoption and the three of them living together, it’s really putting me off sjdjsjdjfk (and don’t get me started on the SA/rape). Even though MC is kind of in control of jihyung, he still dumb for waiting on a cheater; though I appreciate that the MC is a switch, I have a hard time looking for switches in BLs.
