The Baker on the First Floor
decent read. the plot is about a manhwa artist who lives above a bakery. gets a bit angsty. the manhwa artist is a little bit mentally ill and has traumatic stress disorder about previous abusive relationships it seems. baker downstairs is a little bit creepy/sinister at times; also he has a oddly competitive relationship with his sister/has homophobic chaebol family.
I'm Yours, Blood and Soul
uhhh mid plot but the smut is pretty.
Cover Up
hmm this author is a really good artist but the plots are really just an accessory to the smut. tattoo artist bottom x gangster top.
Dolphin Fairy
premise: whale ppl... they leave the ocean and become human. most of them are unsociable and human society is foreign to them, so they're a bit cold and unreciprocating of emotions; some however have acclimated themselves well. theres three couples. the first one (ch1-ch35) is a self deprecating suicidal college aged man who falls in love with his emotional detached sexy swim instructor. their relationship is unhealthy. the second major relationship (ch35-ch67) is a big burly but unsocialized orca whale x an adult working man. he teaches the whale to become human/they have an interesting long distance relationship dynamic. the last couple (ch68-end) is a flashy mischievous pink dolphin x a rich boy. they like each other a lot but have a lot of communication issues bc theyre young and dumb. there’s a lot of angst and a lot of smut. its a decent read. i like the last couple the most. the first one was a little bit depressing and weird.
KYUUSO NEKO O KURAU
Usagi to Neko no Hatsujou Jijou
just smut. animal ppl? this is a little omegaverse-y. step brothers, one is a cat, the other is a goat. goat goes into heat and sleeps with his older brother.
Our House Love Trouble
just smut, but the art is pretty. multiple couples. main character is a naive college student who works a lot of jobs and ends up moving into a share house where he gets bullied; bottom with a muscular build and cute face.
Anata wa Iyarashii Hito
just smut. they're cops. the top is a starry-eyed young man infatuated with the bottom who is an older professional cop who is very good at his job. however the bottom is actually a masochist into bdsm. top encounters his senior sending videos of himself masturbating in the bathroom and offers to be his partner.
On Doorstep
mostly smut, but the plot is satisfying. a young man makes his living as a pickpocket (top) and gets caught by an older ex-cop (bottom) who now works at a bookstore. rather than turning him in, the man offers him the opportunity to redeem himself by working a respectable job at the bookstore. a little bit angsty: the ex-cop takes a leave of absence bc he witnesses the death of his partner. both characters very muscular <3. the art is very beautiful. this artist has a knack for fine line work. top is really pretty when he cries. the ending is sweet/wholesome.
