alice-chan's manga / #slice of life(99)

deserves a higher rating! it's funny and cute, and although it's quite fast-paced and I wish there were more chapters, I think the relationship development is still adorable. it was light and refreshing, I liked it a lot ~

granted, I guess it is a bit cliche but it was so well executed you really don't notice that. I adored everything. It was really funny, it was freaking cute as fuck, I loved all the characters and I just. oof. Definitely rereading while I wait for the sequel. The art is gorgeous too. and the extra's are hilarious. just read it and you'll see what I mean ≧ω≦

the text was so confusing to read, like, who was saying what. I straight up HATED the art, so that made it much harder to read, and the plot was only mediocre, plus the ending was rushed. however, I still gave it 3 stars because tbh it had really good humor and everything about the development of the relationship (when they were talking about liking someone, and all that kind of talk) felt very realistic to me, so it was interesting.

it literally can't get more pure and precious than this, it was so soft and fluffy my heart went crazy. I LOVED IT and I loved the character's and their playful relationship, it was the most adorable thing ever uwuu. it's perfect

oh, you know, just Ayumu and Tojou continuing to be ABSOLUTELY FUCKING ADORABLE

it was average at best. kinda cringey tbh, I only actually enjoyed the middle of ch2 and that's about it.

cuteness overload (ಥ﹏ಥ) I know it's completed but I NEED MORE. PLEASE

I cried, I laughed, I felt the pain through their backstories. I haven't read such a well-paced yaoi in a LONG time (even the ones I love probably don't have such a good pace as this). all of their backstories are really heart-breaking, and their love is unique- this yaoi doesn't focus on the stereotypical love we're all used to. it has a more mature feel to it, more of wanting to be next to each other, to be supporting one another rather than a simple attraction. we can see that kind of love develop throughout the story, and Ayumu (the kid) adds a whole other level of depth that rounds out and completes the story. The portrayal of real, raw human emotions were also very well done, I thought each character had a great sense of depth to them. Really well done. on another note, I'd LOVE a spin-off with Ayumu and Kazuya when they're in middle school/ high school since they already have the whole 'childhood friends' trope and the 'tsundere uke and attached/clingy, playful (puppy-like?) seme' vibe going (´∀｀)♡

I cried from ch2 for the rest of the story. my heart was ACHING. I was beginning to doubt there would be a happy ending... I loved it. It was so heart-clenching and beautiful, and at the same time was still fluffy, gentle, and cute. Sequel/ continuation to "First Bite" (one shot featured in "Sofure Buka!")
