ShadowBladeA's manga / #Slice Of Life(76)

boss and subordinate to roommates to friends to crushes to lovers friendly caring sales team worker x scary looking but cute sales team boss getting to relationship speedrun but after that relationship goals they had arguments BUT THEY COMMUNICATED FUCK YEAAH and there was loving passionate sex love that sm basically finished but no authors note. idk fuck it I'm saying it's complete

mc is a guy who desperately tries to avoid bl scenarios and remain a mob character. goofy story making fun of a ton of bl tropes out there it's goofy how he avoids the gay shit but is used to all the gaying around him lots of gay couples currently reading, last chapter vol 4 ch 73

painful gut wretching mutually one sided love with very messy and real feelings and execution long time childhood friends to besties (with secret pining) to roommates to lovers vers couple btw!! 1st volume shounen ai, 2nd volume basically yaoi this is SO SO GOOD like even the suble desperation in their gazes was drawn so real-ly and the failed/expired loves from the side characters was also executed really deep and interestingly

village traditions lead to gay arranged marriage which both husbands hated at first but theh grew on each other so much they had a 2nd marriage later to celebrate their love hot characters and sex WITH PREP AND ASA CHECKS WOOO THIS WAS SO REAL emotional, realistic characters and cute hell ye this is one of the few kinda arranged marriages I can get behind bc it just works SO well later on woohoo yada yada peep peep :333

4 different shounen ai stories meh ngl but at least they tried with the comedy main story - ear fetishist senior x athletic pretty boy who kept running away from him. idk I just didn't vibe with it so the rest of the work also lacked vibes lol. main thing I didn't like was the siscon shit 2nd story was my fav out of this. reserved dude with a flat x fresh student who needed a place to stay and begged his way in. caring, sweet and harmonic. THIS I would have actually read more of 3rd story - childhood friends reencounter. woohoo I guess that they both loved each other but the pacing and stuff was meh for me 4th story - 2 lovers but one is jealous bc the other gives more attention to the family dog. also kinda meh but idk whyyy

CUUUUUUTE SEQUEL/SPINOFF OF ANOTHER STORY caring office worker who's a surprisingly good top x traumatised prideful popular av bottom very cute care and RESPECT OF BOUNDARIES

HOT SHIIIIT

crushed sports dreams 17 year old patisserie assistant with a crush x older patissiere owner who's secretly very lonely and an ex gang member assistant suddenly confesses, things get awkward, they later talk it out and the chef accepts bc he's a lonely mf and his life "gets filled with colors" around him I rated this too high when I first read it ngl like there are cute scenes n stuff but it's not immersive n stuff 1st colume done, 2nd needs translating

two unhealthy insecure dudes meet the crossdresser was really scared and insecure and the top made use of that. even if he says he didn't do that out of entertainment it still feels like he does. and yeah the push did help but it was unwarranted frfr and the sudden confession was out of nowhere so tbh I don't see why I gave this 4 stars before, it's a 3 for me now reread once btw

main story emotionally toxic for a long while lol kouhai who has never been in love before but just admires pretty things and is a shy pushover who secretly took pics of his crush x popular senpai who fell first at first sight but wanted the top to be dependant and obsessed with him so he kept playing mind games and putting distance. and suddenly when the top gave up on being led on and his confessions ignored he went waawaa he's not acting like how I want him to and I secretly want him carnally waawaaawaaa side couple also has manipulation but it's better idk stoic coffee shop owner who's rich and secretly possessive x broke thug looking but very shy young adult who got saved by the coffee shop owner once and fell in love but was in denial for a while. this wasn't too healthy either but the younger bottom's abandonment and trust issues were interesting and the top tried to keep his boundaries and limits in mind which I respect reread after a long while and it got knocked down 2 stars tbh. but it wasn't too bad of a read, just not recommended for time saving lol
