takame's manga / #romance(395)

ch. 1-2: uni students romance. hmm... so um... that escalated quickly? i don't know there must have been time lapses between the panels when they were starting to fall inlove with each other. other than that, it's actually really cute. the type that made me giggle. the most important one is chapter two when uke start feeling adequate as he questions himself what it is really being inlove and being in a relationship. .//. ch. 3-5: i love the guy's family. they get along so well and the friend gets a better treatment and they love him so much lol. unfortunately, the sweet fluffy feeling only stay in chapter three and after that failed confession it turned into an angsty "love turned to hate" thing. it's sad because they were such good friends but that unrealized love between them changed them into different person. :( #bully seme x #kind (the masochistic kind) uke #dub!con ch. 6.5: first half: some cute short oneshot with friends who smoked together and one half-joking confession turned into a serious relationship that they are having now. / second half: uke's POV after he rejected seme's confession.

Related: Sensei wa Butchozura Shite Yatte Kuru. // Ch.1-4, 5.5: The wolf with a seemingly gentle and sincere smile lol. What a sly seme. And I like him. His aggressiveness is not over the top more like in-between low key and obvious. #officemates, different department. #sempaixkohai at work. #bisexual seme x #gay uke .//. ch. 5: an unrelated oneshot. interesting tho, the uke is entertaining. he's a horrible drunk. #kissmon. #subordinate x superior #live-in. a little lover's spat because of uke's idol singer who happened to be seme's friend. OMFG the comments for this oneshot. TBH the ones calling this rape are probably virgins or have super vanilla sex lives. Do they need a written contract before they had sex everytime? OMFG seriously.

〚 I first learned of this mangaka through Kigeki wa Koi around 2009-2011 I think? so that not-so-good first impression of mine about her artstyle has stuck so I kind of avoided her works. So without knowing it's her, I read this manga. And holy~ I GOT BLOWN AWAY. Like wow. HER SMUT SCENES. It's so beautiful and sexy, and the artwork is well-detailed that it's affecting. It's hot. I'm sorry sensei for my initial low opinion. Your unique art style amazing. (IT'S NOT FOR EVERYBODY THO).〛 Ch. 1: I love the girl supporting character, she's savage haha. courtroom couple. lawyer x lawyer. neighboring law offices and sorta rivals, #hate-love #unrequited love. #dub!con. uke's lawyer-style confession lol. I don't think everybody got that dude, don't play word games with us. .//. ch. 2: art student fell in love at first sight on a painting so he sough the painter and became his apprentice. second chap extra: the all-capable eldest sister of the painter who became his and the atelier's manager. .//. ch. 3: straight x straight. awwww this chapter is so sweet! no worries for this manga it's all cute and sweet, nobody is forced. two friends that are enemies at the same time because they always, always fall for the same girl. blame it to their very similar preferences it's like they were twins. even if it's the cause of their frequent fight, some feeling could arise from that kind of compatibility and if the mood is right... .//. ch 4: #bulter cafe. a breakup right off the bat. enter fujoshi friend who tried to cheer him up. i love it how they both accept each other. i actually like their friendship. well, the couple successfully make-up in the end after communicating properly at last. happy ending. :) .//. ch. 5: #neighbors and best friend for 10 years but chihaya still hates physical contact. very much opposite to the slutty mario. (MC-seme). This is so funny! so mr. playboy no matter how many sex he did, only felt his frustration getting bigger. the end is touching especially the part where he remembered uke's scar. it's amusing but has some depth.

So? nobody is going to talk about uke's beater of a father? I WOULD! I'M SO MAD AT HIM! RAAAH. I'm sad that the mangaka did not pursue this sub-plot but I guess she doesn't want more drama to be concentrated on that douche. But in a way I'm glad because that avoided the potential drama and manga kept it's cute romantic atmosphere. Anyway, it's good that they were very close. And that served as a foundation that kept their friendship intact despite being in the middle of a delicate stage. I like how they are being the boys that they are. Hormonal teens unleashed lol.

due to accident, a man can't fulfill his husband duties especially in bed so he made this young and handsome caretaker to attend his wife's sexual needs. but lately, his wife were giving him hateful looks... #a little bit of stockholm syndrome too. the title's connection to the plot is interesting. it's a sadahiro mika. should be understandable that there would be rap, murder and dark theme.

ch.1-3.5: Poor delivery boy (MC) had all the right to be suspicious of the guy. He's home at noon, hides his face inside a bunny head and is all around weird. Homeboy pushes the term "shy" on a record-breaking level. I'm dying when they went out together. He's lucky nobody called the police hotline yet. Funny fluff. Sweet, so sweet like my teeth will rot. --------ɫ ⬧ ɫ-------- unrelated oneshots ch. 4: another sweet story. such a cute oneshot, this one. a #classical music piano player is pestered by their school's student council to play. SC pres actually has a deeper reason why he wanted him to play tho. non-smut cuteness. ch. 5: young love <3 about two teens who had just became #lovers for a month. intelligent guy x dumb guy. Dumb guy wanted to progress further than kissing but intelligent guy kept on delaying it. Reason? I wanted to do it too. OMAKE: so this seme and the bunny seme are cousins. amusing relation even though it's random lol

It's OK. not THAT bad but not great either. I was expecting more since a lot of readers are raging over seme but welp. Isn't this a common thing in a revenge manga? (Go to my "Revenge" list, you'll know what I'm talking about). TBH, that part is totally meh. Mangaka tried to create an intense drama by adding the attempted gang rape but it still fell short. What I dislike more is the stupid uke. He's like a love-brained, googly-eyed shoujo heroine. Go all gaga over his guy and is ready to give everything without reserving self-respect for himself. What self-sacrifice? HE'S JUST STUPID. And no, it's not stockholm syndrome as well. He did actually fell inlove at first sight at seme and... he's really just stupid. Also, he and the older cousin treat each other as brothers so I don't see cousin as a love rival. TBH, I like him more than the two MCs. *shrugs. For me, what saved this manga is the plot. It at least kept me reading till the end. The characters? Dunno. In a nutshell, an okay "seishun drama". But nothing outstanding. asshole seme not for everybody.

I recommend this to people who had an opposite taste from me (for those who likes super girly uke) *shrugs. #Omegaverse, beta seme x omega uke. BUT what made it interesting is it's set in a world of betas. Quite rare since I only see a "soulmate this, hierarchy that" world. But this uptake where an irregularity like an omega lives in this totally ordinary and normal town connects omegaverse world to the reality more. It's like mangaka dropped an omega in a very slice-of-life-ish manga and I am able to see the perspective of the ordinary people living their normal lives. That, I appreciate.

#peen doctor x cellphone sales clerk. noticed the salesclerk bec. of his x-ray vision when it's about penis. not like it's going to ever get updated because it's been licensed... ┑(￣Д ￣)┍ so i'll just treat it as a oneshot and get over with it since luckily, it completed their getting together in the first chapter. shame, it's somewhat funny. sensei is so serious about his work and the way he describes a cock with a straight face is kind of hilarious for me.

EDIT: Forgot to mark this as finished here. They say Season 2 is at tappytoons. Idk I'll wait at a spottoon release. A relaxing story about two friends connected to the hip but never knew they were actually inlove w/ each other. Been reading this since Jan on spottoon. Support the official English translation https://www.spottoon.com/book/73/ROOMMATES #multiple pair. there are three friends, two are couple-to-be and 3rd friend with another. main pair: the two childhood friends who actually like each other but had difficulty confessing. One of the few main pairing that I like so much more than the secondary. (I got 2nd lead syndrome lol) Not gonna spoil. I'm already at chap 30+ just the confession part is SOOO cute. 2nd pair: the third friend of their three-person group who have some kind of angsty romance. he pushes the guy away over and over. hate vs love feeling. they are cute and yeah, seme is an asshole but not in an irredeemable way. WAY better than those other douche semes out there since he never does anything to the uke like rape, etc. {2017-08-31 16:03 marked}
