Haruka Tooki Ie

Complete | yatsuda teki | 2019 released

It’s beautiful. It portrays trauma in such a way that it hurts you but at the same time, leaves you in awe at just how gruesome and cruel the world can be. It shows the pain of not being able to move on and the pain of being haunted by your past and upbringing. Hayden and Alan are characters with such complex personalities made by their own pasts in which they could not escape. They didn’t deserve the deaths they faced but they left the world together because they loved one another. All their suffering was because of the people around them who subjected them to torture and the memories of such a thing scarred them. I wish they got the happy ending they deserved but no one will ever apologise for creating a monster. Only the monsters who were created against their own wills have to suffer the consequences of their birth and upbringing. The world is beautiful as it is cruel.

Chicken Heart Serenade

Complete | Ohshima kamome | 2019 released

It wasn’t sad, honestly. I loved it. But what got to me was Hayato’s backstory. His family wasn’t accepting of him and he was outed by the person he thought he could trust. The idea of lying to oneself and trying to be “normal” for the sake of his family broke my heart and when he cried after sleeping with a man for the first time pulled on my heartstrings. The story itself isn’t sad. It was actually really good to see how they progressed from being fuck buddies to people who cared for each other. There wasn’t really much drama either. Hayato was quick to accept his feelings for Hiromichi and didn’t even hesitate to get him back. It’s refreshing to see. Loved it and would totally recommend it :)

Minority

Complete | Hinoon | 2000 released

It's hard to describe how much I enjoyed the story so I'll just say that I loved how it went and it made me smile to see that there was a happy ending. The struggle Heechan had with his family was very painful to read through bcs although our situations aren't the same, I have my struggles with my family as well. I'm just glad that Jinhyuk was there to lighten up Heechan's life
