axima's manga / #Childhood Friends(17)

ML starts off looking like an ass but becomes adorable later. FL is your typical self insert, no need to over think it. The romance is cute. Some funny moments here and there, stemming from a plot point you wouldn't expect from a shoujo and poor wording. There was even a bit of drama I found genuinely interesting. I hate FL's obsession with having a kid though, and I'm sure she'll get her way sooner or later. EDIT: She did, dropped.

Probably gonna increase the stars, just need to see how this plays out first. EDIT: Nah it wasn't really that good.

I'm not in to yaoi but damn... The magical boy stuff is actually a really fun take (when he's not getting railed). All the scenarios are really interesting and his costumes look cool. The story is surprisingly deep, things really take a turn later on... I like the romance as well, they're both cute and adorable when with each other. There's this one questionable new plot point that might be a dealbreaker depending on how it plays out. EDIT: Yeah that thing I mentioned just keeps getting worse. Don't look in topics if you don't wanna get spoiled. Too curious to drop though, hoping they'll salvage this mess somehow. EDIT 2: Wow, I'm shocked they're actually going through with it. Even in other yaoi that do this kind of thing they never treat it in a realistic way. This is the only time I wish they went on with their happy ending bs when it's obviously unreasonable though.

Didn't I finish this? Idk why it's in my want to read and it's been too long for an accurate review.

Mostly just porn but it's somehow still low-key cute. Or maybe I just really, really like Seiji and it's blinding me. You'd expect it to feel rushed but it doesn't, although an extra epilogue chapter showing a bit more of their life as a couple would be interesting.

Some promise. MC is a little dumb but well meaning. For once she's not just fine letting someone suffer because according to some story they'll have a happy ending eventually. ML starts of prickly but warms up pretty quick.

A lot of people say it's fast paced and it is, but not the fastest I've read. The plot still works they're just cutting out the fluff which I can appreciate. ML seemed kinda trashy but he reflects on himself and is a good guy just misguided. I kinda like MC being sort of an innocent crybaby, because at least she's honest. And it's interesting to see her try to keep her act together more when it's important.
