duanchu's manga / #School Life(26)

SO CUTE. Love the art style, love the characters, love the relationship dynamics, and love the plot. It's mostly a light reading, as the plot is not too heavy; instead it has the best combination of fluff and hurt/comfort. The plot was executed well, very well-paced with great development and progression. Love the relationship of the main couple; they have a strong bond and trust in each other. Their communication is A+. When there are misunderstanding between them, they are eager to solve it together before it turns into a big conflict. They are so in love with each other, I love it. BONUS POINT FOR SUPPORTIVE FEMALE FRIEND! This type of female character is so rare to see in webtoon. She is pretty, supportive, and remains strictly as friends to the main leads.

A delight! Love this one a lot. A sweet and adorable manga about Nakamura, a disaster gay teenager, who has a crush on his classmate. The mangaka did really well in portraying teenage relationship and feelings. The story progressed nicely, with the relationship between Nakamura and his crush developing in the funniest but sweetest way. Lovable characters, cute interaction, adorable art!! It's all in one package. I do hope it was longer, to be honest.

TW: attempted suicide, homophobia, transphobia, sexual harassment. A beautiful story with equally beautiful art; this manga sent me to tears each chapter. This LGBTQ+ manga is a coming-of-age story of a gay teenager who met others from the LGBTQ+ community, and thus begin his journey of re-finding himself with a new family. Realistic portrayal of bullying, discrimination, and struggles faced by LGBTQ+ people. This one hits really close to home.

I thought it was a vampire BDSM+ webtoon, but it turns out to be much more. A vampire/human webtoon, it has an unconventional story with complex and deep characters as well as relationship. It is not a light reading; instead, there were a lot of "dark" themes. Sent me to tears a few times, however the ending is extremely satisfactory. Definitely worth reading.

TW: suicide, homophobic remarks, slight PTSD symptoms.

A cliche story, but was very heartwarming, cute, and fluffy. Let's go lesbian!!!

feisty bottom!!!!!!! go get your man!!!!!!!

really fun so far; the main characters didn't get along at first, but eventually fall in love. in that way, the story is particularly generic. however, i love how the story develops. there is not much misunderstanding or "drama" but instead their getting together does feel natural. love the dynamics between the main characters.

TW: minor bullying, minor violence, minor homophobic remarks SO GOOD. It was funny and cute, and mostly a light reading with minimal angst. But, it can also get deep occasionally; regarding the issue of Kamin’s background and Suho’s sexuality. I like how it touches on the issue of friendship and family, self-expression, and fear of being left out. I feel like these issues are particularly central for a teenager. Also, I like the side characters, they are also complex in their own ways and are really easy to like. Kanggo’s family, especially, bring their own colours to the story. What I like the best, however, is the main CP’s relationship. Kanggo and Kamin’s start is unconventional, but their relationship progress in a particularly realistic way that doesn’t feel rushed. They really are good for each other; they complement each other, they quarrel a lot, but they cares for each other deeply. In a way, I think, meeting each other changed their life for the better. They really are truly good for each other. Their interaction is also hilarious. Honestly two idiots in love. Regarding the unrequited love: Kanggo initially rejected Kamin’s feelings, but continue to hangs out around him and treating him really well. It wasn’t really angsty, Kamin himself didn’t really agonise over it.
