Effy's manga / #adorable(28)

I LOVE this story and the art that goes with it. The romance story itself is also so wholesome and deep. It's genuinely on some Notebook-type level. My heart has exploded a million times over. ️️️️ SMUUUUTTTT, SO MUCH SMUTTTTT ️️️️ The smut aspect is written and illustrated so so well. It's far from boring and it's made incredibly rich by consistently changing the elements up each time or having new ones added. Not to mention there's a whole lot of it, the writer spoiled us. I also really like that while one character is more the 'masculine' one (or the top lol), it's just a tiny bit more and it's mainly only noticeable when they're intimate. Other than that, the characters are both pretty balanced between their feminine/masculine qualities, something that I LOVE to see since LGBTQ relationships are often depicted with one being dominantly feminine one and the other being dominantly masculine. My 2 qualms: RANDOM SEXUAL ASSAULT WRITTEN IN?! The romance between the main characters is morally sound, nearly healthily perfect, and develops from their emotional and physical bond with each other. Neither character is actually a stalker or any sort of sexually perverse criminal. Their love is genuine and the stalker bit is just a joke between them due to the story of their meeting. So WHY TF DID THE AUTHOR MAKE ONE OF THEM SA THE OTHER DURING THEIR FIRST ENCOUNTER?!!!!! IT IS SOOOO OUT OF PLACE AND DOESNT ADD TO, OR FIT, THE TONE OF THE STORY OR THE PLOT WHATSOEVER. It's completely misaligned with who the characters are, what their relationship is like, and it just never brought up again (again, PROBABLY BECAUSE ITS COMPLETELY OUT OF LINE WITH STORY).

I…I am speechless… I can’t believe the people who rated this less than 5 stars because this is the absolute best I have ever read. I can’t even put it into words.

A STEAMY AF SLICE OF LIFE . If you arent into slice of life, def avoid. I had no idea this would become an obvious slice of life piece, which resulted in me believing I’d reached the very end of the story on multiple occasions. After a few times of nearly passing out excitedly when it’d continued, I realized that the author just blessed us by running with it as a slice of life. A SLICE OF LIFE FULL OF SMUT? God, I don’t want it to ever end. On another note… why is Touma SO HOT? Ngl he’s threatening to steal the title of my #1 character crush, which is no mean feat. I will say that I NEED to see Natsume successfully and spontaneously take charge over Touma during sexy time. Cmon Natsume, shock Touma with so much sexiness that he couldn’t top even if he wanted to. For once, we need to see Toumas soul LEAVE HIS BODY instead of Natsumes.

Wow I was honestly prepared to leave this a SHINING review—then it just cut off randomly. To say I was caught entirely off guard is an understatement. Now I understand the reason it’s rated as it is. What a goddamn disappointment. I was slurrrrping this up, loving every moment of it. The part is cuts off at (or ends

I love this so much! There’s so many elements that set it apart from other omegaverse, Yaoi, smutty stories! I especially love the representation of a divorcee, a single parent, and family/relationship dynamics when one of the parties has a child from a previous relationship. This is so precious!!!!

I feel like I have super high standards for manga, especially romance/BL ones because they often seem to be amateurly written (lacking in flow, pacing, character development, structure, depth, etc). Anyways, I’m usually left feeling dissatisfied, even if it’s just with the ending, but I was pleasantly surprised with this one! It’s such a cute story and I never felt like anything was lacking. The ending also seemed very natural rather than rushed or misplaced, so I felt content when realizing there wasn’t any pages left! The characters are both very ‘soft’ and feminine, which I also adored since I seldom see that pairing in BL. It was just TOO STINKIN CUTE AND ROMANTIC!

I wouldn’t consider this smut tbh, so don’t expect anything super steamy. I wish the sex scenes were longer than they are but they’re def pg-13 instead of R lol so they only give clips here and there. Other than that (which was an expectation problem, not an actual problem with the story), I LOVED it! :) however… I need an update about the kid that was bullied, is he OKAY?! poor kid seemed suicidal asf and then lost the only support system he had.

Okay all in all, I LOVE this whole ass story. You can easily tell the author put sooo much work into it. The storyline, and the art, is phenomenal. There are tons of panels that could’ve been made much simpler art-wise, such as scenes with pigmented, gorgeous sunset skies when they could’ve just been made the typical blue or whatnot. So you can tell the love and dedication that has gone into this. It shows, it shows! But WOW THE SIDE STORRRIESSS? UGHHHHHH. STOP. I better see a whole ass storyline play out with Do-Hyeok and Seo being endgame. Of course Do-Hyeok was suchhh a f-upped villain, but Seo really pulled the wounded child out of Do-Hyeok, and enlightened him to what it was really like for those that had been hurt by him. So… even with his past, I think they’re good for each other and will help each other grow. Obviously I’d be expecting a hella deep ass apology to Suha from Do-Hyeok first… but man I really hope we get a happy ending for this villain.

So damn wholesome and cute! I love it! Well written and interesting :)

All I’m saying is… this better have a good ending I’m so on edge about the “consequences” that’ll come as the price to pay for the dragon derailing a predetermined fate. I hope it’s nothing too bad, they just deserve to be happy!
