kimbolimbo's manga / #love(109)

2.5.24 - BINGED IN 6ish HOURS. ughh, i wish it was even longer than it already is!! yuri got so darn cute and irresistible as the serie goes on :’)) i wish that the toxic elements within yuri and seonwoo’s relationship were addressed in a healthier manner but i also couldn’t help but just simply enjoying that they got together (FINALLYY) after much angst! i hadn’t expected such a turn of events; i knew the main leads would end up together, but that seemed almost impossible with the way it started haha. i really enjoyed yuri’s growth and true (yandere) personality coming out as the story progressed and i felt so much sympathy for seonwoo. i wished he had more moments where he was taken seriously and was rewarded for his efforts.. overall, a great read that i hadn’t expect to finish in one sitting hehe reread 10.20-23.24 highlights from chapters i liked: ch.30 first meal outing together ch.36 chance encounter ch.41 frequent illusions ch.51 yuri’s gentle touch ch.52 freckle ch.53 oh ch.56 4 whole years + a kiss? ch.60 ever not have tears..
