Naked Sword and the Tree Peony of Black
Kuroi, the heir of a yakuza and Shirakaba, a normal boii are childhood friends with mutual feelings for each other! Sadly Kuroi is a stubborn mf so the relationship never progressed until.... Shirakaba got married anddddd then divorce, my man confessed so many damn time and get rejected like a dog. Well Shirakaba since is a smart mf (he's a lawyer), he entered the Kuroi group by becoming theirs legal advisor!! The relationship progress is actually good, at first we thought that there was no (sexual) history behind them since Kuroi was always rejecting Shirakaba. It didn't progress too fast or too slow, it got just the right flow!>3< (Yes, they're childhood friends but I didn't expect them to fuck in highschool and had that kind of fwb sht). It good that the mangaka showed us the story from two point-of-view. (Shirakaba's undeniable love and Kuroi's worries for Shirakaba). Also Shirakaba caring for Kuroi after he saw Kuroi crying was cute AF. I also like the relationship that the main couple had with the side characters, especially the restaurant owner! UwU that was cute ~~ Anddd we can't forget about BIG daddy original senior Kuroi kekehehe so supporting and he's the captain of our ship!! ~^O^~ The story didn't only focus on the relationship between the main couple but they also gav a chapter or some pages to show the yakuza's business aspect, even though the manga it short we still got a little bit of "action" lol (´▽`). I could see the yakuza Bada$$ side of Kuroi hihi!!! The art is good, there was some laziness there and here but honestly I understand and not complaining since the mangaka is 100% better than me lol! Got nice "coloring" going on and shading. You can see that the hot characters are hot and the funny characters are funny hehe. The layout and panels design are good, Gucci. THE ENDING: Loves talking about endings lol (when it's a good one or the one I like ooor dislike hehe). Soooo THE FUCKING TATTOOS REVEAL at the end fucking amazing cute shit right there mf!!!! Yeah, Shirakaba once asked Kuroi if he will ever get ink and if he did could he be the one choosing the color!! Anddd of course Kuroi got inked buuut didn't color it cause he was waiting for Shirakaba to choose a color (❁´‿`❁). Side note; Kuroi "supposedly" got a "cat tattoo" on his inner tight... Right??? But that sht DOESN'T even look like a MF CAT!!!!!! WTH man or am I blind!?!?!? I kinda dislike that the mangaka didn't show us Shirakaba getting stab lol, that felt kinda rush or maybe the mangaka wanted to build up the intensity... If that the reason I feel like it kinda fail... I didn't get the angsty feeling and since it was on the hand too... Man... It would have been another story if 1. We get to see Shirakaba getting stab (somewhere lethal too lol but not 100% fatal), 2. Not getting rushed by the boy telling Kuroi on facetime lmao and him just smashing the phone smh. Idk kinda disappointed that they just cutted it there only showing Shirakaba bloody hand instead of bleeding of heart or something lol. Maybe the mangaka didn't want it to go dark which I understand UwU. Kinda a sequel of Neko to Wakagashira (one-shot), very funny to read. And I'll probably remember more about the one shot story than this one since my memory is bad... You can't compare this to IKE Reibun, this one had it on charm and it's way shorter than Ike-samas yakuza serie (Bi no Isu).
BJ alex
Well that was a long as ride! Been reading/following this sht for two years and it's now ending aaah~~ I'll miss my smexy bois very muchu! The story is about Dong-gyun falling in love with a camboy or bj (= broadcast jockey), Alex. One day something happened and he discovered bj Alex's true identity... That bj Alex is actually his hyung at the university ●▽●. A lot of thing happened over the past two years (IRL), they went from being acquaintance to friend, to fwb, to acquaintance, to partners in crime, to lovers, to hater, to acquaintance and to lovers. Don't remember everything and probably got it in wrong orders lol kekehehe ≧﹏≦ I started to read it because of the smut and good art but it soon turned into a gay drama *surprised pikachu face*. Jkjk it's a good plot IMO and I really enjoyed reading. It definitely a new type of story to me! (or I just haven't read enough to discover all the glorious BL). I don't know what's wrong with me but as soon as the side couple get more into action I start to love them more than the main couple lol. Kinda guilty over this but... I like when Alex treated Dong-gyun badly keke, hear me out! I love to get sad over uke getting treated badly by the seme but still want them, that shit is toxic af! Annnd I could never or more like I don't want to support that in real life but when it in fiction... Lemme enjoy that shit and cry my eyes out okok?!? Bj Alex real name is Anh Jiwon I just found out about it by googling lol, maybe they mention it before but I've forgotten :p I don't remember crying like a baby over this story but since it had been with me for so long I might as well write something about it and keep it in my memories ~~~~♡
Nirameba Koi
Second time reading this story lol, couldn't remember much of it since I have such a bad memory! Kinda fluff and kinda cute. Love me a good story about a where a delinquent (Ryuunosuke) and a good boy (Shima)falling in love at hatsukoiiiii ~~~ Love you at first glare type of love hehe ~^O^~
Sorekara, Kimi wo Kangaeru
Collection of one-shot manga. Story #1 was a sad one. The ending here hmm... IDK what to say. I feel like Yasu didn't want to say his farewell??? It was quite difficult to tell them apart lol. I like the story nr 3 the most hehe. It simple story but cute. From fake bf to being real bf. Cute cute (((o(*゚▽゚*)o)))
Hana No Miyako De
Motoharu has a crush on his childhood friend, Akira and he confessed but got rejected annnd you can pretty much guess the rest of the story. Not really heartbreaking, probably cause it was too short and didn't give me enough time to absorb the feeling I was supposed to feel... It's a cute story but original? Not really, I have seen a lot of stories that have this kind of plot. This story is apparently a part of a series, maybe I should read that too and come back later to write more!
Ai O Kou Kemono
I remember reading quite a long time ago. It's a story about two brothers who didn't know they were brothers so they fuck. Lmao the plot and the relationship here is sooooooooooo messy!!! (*_*). Once in a while reading an incest story is not that bad but I don't really love that kind of story. Because I can't related to it and I didn't even felt a slight of sympathy lol. Just stumbled a cross this one again and my view have change a loooot since. Incest is just so wrong. Before I used to not care about it as long as the plot were Interesting. This one is indeed interesting just not my cup of tea anymore. I do love the ending a lot!! I agree on Kaoru's decision to leave because staying under the same roof as Akira would just be weird?? Even tho Akira lost his memories it would still be weird for Kaoru. So kudos for him leaving and respecting himself! I have more criticism to give but all of it is just about the character being stupid lol so whatever. Can't stay mad at dead people lol (the "father", the mother and the real father)
Hebi no Seikatsu
CH 1-3: The story was about three childhood friends. Seono (omega) and Hirono (alpha maybe, they didn't mention it) are twins and Yuuma (alpha). Yuuma raped Seono while he was in heat and didn't have medication. This result in pregnancy, Hirona leaving the hometown and everybody behind after graduation. A painfully love triangle that made me felt so sorry for the twins. Hirono deserve better... He was planning on having his future with Yuuma but Yuuma a stupid fuck raped Seono... And fucked everything up. Seono must've felt bad and blame himself. In the letter that Seono wrote to Hirono, he expressed his guilt by saying/writing --> "I stole what Hirono wanted the most right away from him", that he could feel a sense of happiness from the things that he has stolen from Hirono and the reason for his illness is because of karma ~T^T~. Yet he wanted Hirono to be happy and live on strong! Seono's baby girl is so precious. Protect her at any cost!! Normally I don't like to read Omegaverse for the plot because it's unrealistic, (Mpreg and heat stuff). Other than that what happened could've happened in the real world as well. I didn't really like the ending either but that is personal based on how I view life and family. I didn't want Hirono to go back to Yuuma and became kinda like a dad for the child. I know it's her uncle but wouldn't it be weird if your uncle is now dating your dad right after you other dad just passed away? Plus they were twin, meaning they look alike. Just weird in my opinion. I know they use to date and all but still. I interpreted this as Seono was being an obstacle between Hirono and Yuuma, which it SHOULDN'T. Because all of this was Yuuma's fault and we shouldn't sympathize with a rapist... IMO!!╰(‵□′)╯ Also the fucking parents... Man...Disappointed. I didn't read the rest, ch 4-6 because I was already crying so let me continued being sad for the first story before moving on >.After all the criticize, hehe (^∀^) I actually really like this story a lot because it kinda broke my heart. Annd I still wish them a happy and joyous life even tho I disagree with how they choose to live ... :3
I will be waiting for you in 1999
A story about a pair of orphans growing up together. They got adopted separately by different family but still had contact with each other. Cause they were brothers. The story itself was really heart touching and I cried on many parts. Another good thing was that every character got their own background story shown in a good amount of time. I expected that the story and the title would have a bit more of an association. I know that the story is not about time travelling but... Yeah. I don't get who was waiting for whom in 1999, I felt like something was missing... I expected the ending to be more tragic and sad cause then maybe it would have given the title it purpose. 1999 was the year where they first met and I felt like if Shi Yi died it would have completed the title a little bit more. For example --> " I can only meet you in my memories when I look back at the year 1999 ", that kind of vibes. This didn't break my heart. Idk why but I didn't fell in love (platonic love/adoring them) with any of the characters. I had a strong feeling of sympathy for every character but none of them stood out to me. I was mostly crying cause what happened to them was horrible but their personality??? Yeah, their personality wasn't very likeable somehow? BUT compare to IF they were real human then they would be considered as such a goodie good people, for example, Shi Yi he was a volunteer in an earthquake catastrophe helping other people, mother and father who adopted him... Even though the character didn't stand out to me I still like the fact that they were there and looked after each other in difficult times. They fitted in with each other more than what they would have with me. On the other hand, the character's design and look are very cute and very manwha like, which I love. It's not BL but bromance.
Restart wa Tadaima no Ato de
Travelling back home from Tokyo to the countryside after getting fired and meeting his soon to be lover :3 Honestly I didn't enjoy this manga right away but after reading pass chapter 2-3 I started to like it. The story is not "woooow amazing, sugoiiii" but it was more like a "Mmmmm fluff, wholesome and slowly". Which is something that we all need from time to time. And it's actually relatable on some level. Not all love can start with just meeting eyes, because it sure takes more than that in reality. I also like the interaction that they (main couple) had with other characters in the story ... It's naturally and seem real?? IDK how to describe it but like people in real would somehow talk that way. Personally one of many reasons why it a great story is because I enjoy story that plays out in the countryside. Having seen so many setting in school and university can be plain sometimes. So it is a fresh and quite "unique" setting. "Unique" because I've seen other countryside but not many. Plus this manga is getting a live-action. (❁´◡`❁) UwU Very happy and I'll be waiting to see my lovely boys in 3D (*^_^*)
