queerdinosuar's manga / #Neighbors(5)

Honestly I’m only 10 episodes in and this is already up there with my favorites. I love a well done romcom.

I picked it up on a whim but really enjoyed this one. A story about a boy who has been hurt and emotionally manipulated and suffered from homophobia and another boy who is a serial player but catches feelings for the first time. About putting yourself back together and learning to love after spiraling in self loathing and self destruction from past trauma. It’s honestly super interesting and well written. The conflicts, while frustrating in their lack of communication, feel authentic to people making assumptions about the other’s feelings based on their own prior baggage. I just want Su-Gyeom to love himself and let Do-Jun love him too.
