To deny the route
8 This one was so good. Super adorable despite the mc being a yandere. The plot is quite interesting. All of my fave tropes together (isekai historical bl with a dating sim system). Wish there were more bls with these type of plots. I found the art fugly at first, but it grew on me and now I actually like it. especially the droopy eyes of iliya. I didn't like the ending tho. It was extremely rushed. Also we didn't even get a KISS ??? It's a korean manhwa so it's really unexpected. It might have reached an 8.5 if it weren't for that
Lost in the Cloud
So far it's good but tbh I expected more. Ig my expectations were too high
Ogus's Law

There's No Way This Is Fate
7.5 I’m enjoying this one soooo much. It was kinda unhinged, chaotic and the art was fugly.... but HEAR ME OUT. HEAR ME OUT-- It was addictive lmao like a guilty pleasure kind of addictive
Lying Puppies Get Eaten
I caved in and started it way too soon (like 9 chappies). It's supeer cute, and definitely want to let it marinate for a long time before picking it up properly!

8.5 THIS SHIT IS HILARIOUS. So fucking unserious. The constant whiplash in tone. Perfection, I fucking love it. Chaotic bunkers fluff. I love it so so much. Another one of Jayden’s gem recs! The reaction expressions are so freaking funny lmaooooo, and the one liners??? AHAHAHAH "That's the guy who chose to chug the penalty cocktail with pubes in it instead of making out with a girl when he played spin the bottle!" "fuck, fuck, fuckity, fuck, fucking bastard! Fucking son of an ass licking, booger picking, scum sucking, shit pumping bad of slutty clown dicks!!!" "should I just chop his dick off and make him my slave?"

9.5 I'm so so obsessed with this one! It was even better than I expected! I LOVE THE CHARACTERS SO SO SO SO SO MUCH. I got seriously attached to them. Kayden is so freaking iconic, Jiwoo is a the most adorable cinnamon role and Kartein is majestic. It feels like a SatuSugu co-parenting fic. The character dynamics and development arcs are truly top tier. That's what sets this manhwa apart from other shounens imo. It's slower paced than traditional shounen, especially in the first like 150+ chapters. But it makes it much more captivating as well. It maintains a proper pacing for fully explore emotional and character depth. It has much more 'filling scenes' throughout the overaching action plot than most shounens (which in Eleceed's case is def a strength). Honestly, I wouldn't mind this manhwa to last forever since I love the banter and character dynamics SO FREAKING MUCH. The humor is top tier, the feels between Jiwoo and pretty much any other character are also phenomenal. It reminded me of The S Classes That I Raised, in the feels of parenting + collecting them like pokemon (Kayden, Kartein, Pluton..and more to come LMAO). That said, I haven't given it a 10 bc I find it a bit lacking plotwise. Like there isn't a solid planned out overarching plot. It's just going with the flow (which I don't necessarily mind since the characters compensate this aspect imo). Also, I wish Jiwoo would lose more fights early on. I'd prefer to see him struggle harder/fight incredibly well but end up losing by a nail (or barely winning); rather than being so OP. Some fights I'd personally tweak here and there. But yeah, I'm definitely nitpicking. I binged the whole 300+ chapters in like 2/3 days (and didn't finish sooner just bc I was incredibly busy). I loved it so much and wish I could reread it for the first time. I might even up it to a 10, despite these 2 flaws, if the next arcs are good. That's how much I love the characters!!! (tho I still think ORV is in a league of its own)
