Such a cute story about cute people being cute. I wish we got to see more things from the other guy’s point of view and more about his friends, but honestly I wouldn’t change the story for what it is. Accept yourself, and spread your love.

Abarenbo honey

Complete | TOBIDASE Kevin | 2015 released

This manga singlehandedly rejuvinated my love for delinquent stories and absolute hatred for "rich prince" stories. While this story is charming and hilarious, the whole body-gaurd and "he's too good for you" plot points had me rolling my eyes at times. The B-Plot story line was not for me at all either. Trust me when I say I liked it! But not as much as I could've if the story were changed quite a bit. As for the main plot. Super cute and fun!!! It’s definitely one I constantly re-read for simply how charming the characterization is. The art is so fitting and I love the way it implemented the omegaverse and mafia into one. Perfection!

Never Understand

Complete | Bbong | 2013 released

From what I can remember, this manwha was about the popular student council member falling for another kid who he thought was ugly. It was cute at first, but the story didn't know where to go after they fell for each other. The side stories were just plain wired (esp the one about the archery guy)... and the kidnapping scheme towards the end made little to no sense. I’m a fan of complex characters, but it wasn’t explored enough. Maybe I rushed through it, but the comic didn't end in a satisfying way.

Shiro to Tsubaki

I love how this manga sets up this world full of monsters and shared a story that touched on both ends of the spectrum. Tsubaki is really just an adorable incubus who doesn’t want to be a burden to anyone, and Shiro has to deal with his familial hierarchy while maintaining his relationship - though I wish he had a little more to him other than “I don’t care uhhh I’m in love.” I wasn’t fond of Akira at first, but he slowly developed in my mind, only acting the way he does because of his love for Botan! Akita being physical with Tsubaki is just a result of sex being all he knows as “love” and affection for Tsubaki, but he learns towards Ch 6 to just let him be free. As for the other supporting cast, they were all unique and very fun well rounded characters not meant for fodder but had a purpose as instigators. It’s so easy for authors to write their characters in a void but that was not the case here. I wanted more info on the demon world, but this manga told its story well and I look forward to the conclusion!

Nagi-kun and Hayasaki-kun

Ongoing | kiirononeko | 2022 released

Despite the simple story - I really love this manga. Nagi’s is hot-headed and always bothered, but Hayasaki is slow-mannered yet direct (I was convinced he was autistic for a second). The ending really patched things up for these two but I want more Hayasaki perspective!! Seeing Nagi’s insecurity was really cool tho. I bought the book for myself not to long ago.
