It took a while to get used to the color scheme but the story definitely peels in layers and got better with each chapter!
Wet Sand
Idk if I can root for Kentucky Jo rn Idk if I’m just toxic but the OG couple has my heart. This love triangle is sooo goood and so complex like WHEW it feels like BOTH are contenders for real!! I’m glued to this story.
Stigma
OHHH MY GODDD. This story is TRAGIC. It’s so horrible to imagine someone experiencing this in real life that you dissociate as you’re reading the absolutely abhorrent things happening. Still, it is a good read. It’s very very heavy but a good read with a solid story.
Form of Sympathy
Very veryyy interesting dynamic and surprisingly original story for a korean manhwa. Wholesome until it wasn’t in the epilogue where things got alarmingly toxic…but the writer somehow never addresses it as such. Well paced and nice ending!
Hitori to Hitori no 3650nichi
Absolutely lovely - both stories actually! The first one was fast but it packed a lot of healing into it. The second story was also no bs! No ridiculous miscommunications just people trying to figure themselves out and push forward. I really liked it!
Hishakaishindo
So well paced! And you can feel the characters develop as individuals which is really rewarding when they are able to come back together and pick up where they left off! There is SA in here though…even if they kinda skip over the impact it definitely happened. Still, it was a cute story.
Utsukushii Tamashii
Ooofff my first heartbreak of an incomplete manga. The rest I could manage but this one hurt cause it was so good! Such a touching story about the different disadvantages we experience.
Dousei Yankee Akamatsu Seven
One of the most original stories I’ve read…tragic at some points, really sad at others. It really…doesn’t read as a BL, the story is so beyond that so the romance aspect is there but not front and center. It’s definitely not lovey-dovey but I was intrigued the whole time. 10/10 for whatever genre of BL this is!
