duanchu's manga / #Unrequited Love(10)

Originally, I enjoy this quite a bit; the characters are all so adorable. However, the plot eventually feels very rushed. The ending left much to be desired. There are several unanswered plot-holes, and the relationship between the main characters are not properly explored. Adorable art, though!!

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.

Art is OK, plot seems interesting so far. Still unsure about the relationship, but so far I enjoy how tragic their relationship can be, especially because it’s self-induced.

Current: Ch. 7

this is so fucking good, especially narrative-wise. the flow and pacing are absolutely perfect; it really captures the pining and the longing.

tw: contains rape, domestic abuse/neglect, bullying, abusive relationship. the story is the typical fucked up relationship w/ a happy ending. the angst was pretty ok, but they rushed it so i ended up not feeling anything? the overall pacing is also so fast! anyway, plot-wise it’s a mess. but it actually has a really interesting premise. not every time do u get a top omega! read it if you want a top omega, i guess.
