Oni to Tengoku

Complete | Aga naomi,Oyoshikawa kyouko | 2000 released

ch1: lmao how can u say u didnt do a public offense when (im assuming) u've touched the student's dick lmao istg i skimmed through the raws and it looks pretty hot, im supposing there's character development in it too. though im a bit confused by volume 2 coz two characters popped up and a lot of scenes became incredibly confusing to me lmao but i'm guessing it's worth the wait. this is from the same novelist as Lie Cry Like after all. update: the seme is just tantalizingly sexy, there's nothing remarkable when u simply look at him but there are times that he becomes so manly and my heart goes badump LMAO. like when theyre kissing, and when you see that mole on his neck hdndjdj idk man

All About Lust

Complete | kim gong lyong,TIRANO KIM | 2016 released

EXCUSE ME THIS IS THE BEST WEBTOON I HAVE EVER READ. IT HAS THE BEST CHARACTER DEPTH IVE EVER SEEN AND THE DIALOGUE IS SO GOOD IM DYING it says "all about lust" in the title, but it's not even much of that. the way the characters worked around their differences and way everything came into place is wonderful. great read! and i seriously was able to see a bit of myself in most of the characters. characterization is on point. the art isn't very fancy but it's a great mix of pretty and plot.

Mr. 100% Perfect

Complete | Hoben | 2000 released

FINAL UPDATE: OMG I LOVE THIS SO MUCH REALLY. Everyone is a mature adult, they take responsibilities of their actions and apologize when they're wrong like OH MY GOD YES SO HEALTHY THANK YOU. The art is also so good??? My god a blessing ____ Oh, I love this one. Seems like it's gonna be great. Love the set-up and the characterization so far (chapter 7). (Chapter 11) Quite disappointed that the uke just brushed through the seme's insecurity like that by changing the topic but I guess we'll deal with that later lol. Update: Okay this is great. To Faves 2 you go (because the first one is full) Update: Oh my god the second couple is *chef's kiss* this is my comfort manhwa now BRO IS HE??? WTF NO MY BABY ch87: sukyun needs to do something about his anger issues

Seishun Runaway

Complete | OTSU Kimiko | 2017 released

I love this so much! The story-telling is great, and the characters are all interesting. The way everything unfolded is somewhat unpredictable, which I like. I'd consider this one of my Top 30 but my list is quite cluttered so yeah lol The first couple was adorable. The taller guy is handsome but is really insecure (in an endearing way, not toxic), meanwhile the other guy is charismatic yet elusive. The dynamic is entertaining, and even if the smaller dude is quite sly, you know he's not doing it out of malice. The second couple was a bit out of my league, it's a whole different formula than most of the things I've seen so far. The premise is quite simple: strong, unrequited love since high school (with mild stalker-ish behavior), then reencounter in college. What makes it unique is the glasses character really, the way he thinks is different I can't even explain it. That character feature made their arc unpredictable haha. Though I must say, I wasn't very moved by their part, the resolution wasn't satisfying. Moved too far trying to be unpredictable. Overall I'd rate this a 4.5

Tojikometai!

Complete | Yamada Papiko | 2000 released

offtopic but dude i rarely see captive mangas but i just saw two of them today. then both mentioned One Piece... i'm freaking out lmao (05.14.20) anyway, second couple is cute. the seme's design is ugh, cool yet gentle-looking *chef's kiss* (spoiler: what a waste he was actually a sadist lmao he was already perfect!) third story: lmao WHAT ON EARTH IS A "PERSON I WANT TO MARRY RANKING" in a goddamn office job LMAO I CANT. omg this shit is hilarious, i love the characters. (this one is the reason for the "good characterization" tag coz they're interesting and entertaining lmao, the most popular guy is so funny). fucking hell this story had so much potential, it was so quick given the one chapter constraint. if given the chance it would've been amazing.

Daisy Jealousy

Complete | OGERETSU Tanaka,Ogeretsu Tanaka | 2019 released

OH MY GOD I LOVE IT ALREADY update: so I started rereading this again from the beginning, and i love the accumulating water on the cup until it exploded, that's an amazing metaphor. tanaka-san was really peak, i saw her recent yarichin chapters and I don't like her new art style and paneling anymore :( anyway i wanna read the original jp of this, the translation is wonky as hell since ch2. ok i found the better eng on myreadingmanga holy shit, why did a nobody take over ch2 when the first scanlator already did it update: ok so i finished it (lol at the translator asking for credit) it's actually good. can't blame kaname for coming back to misaki, some people experience this one love that can never be overtaken by anyone. i liked it

You know what, I like this. Usually authors have to use a third-party for a jealousy trope to get the couple fighting, as if forgetting that couples fight about their own differences on their own. The characters were all interesting and human. This was different than the usual and I liked it. (Seems like a Western author wrote this?)

Sensei, Mou Dame Desu

Complete | Kashima chiaki | 2019 released

THE MANGAKA IS LITERALLY ME. I'VE BECOME A MANGA CHARACTER YALL LMAO. (just the personality though) like damn is he extremely obtuse lmao Anyway, this was funny as fuck. Not sure if this could happen irl but I'm very entertained Another note: Finally a mangaka who knows the difference between romantic attraction and sexual attraction. I like how sensei usually doesn't care about labels, like their other work with the co-workers. Update: Holy shit. Volume 2 and the more I see about the author character, the more I can see myself in him. This is damn wild. Update: Vol2 Ch7. Holy shit. It's scary how much I can relate to this character. The New Year greetings part, I always feel the same during my birthday. The only thing I love about birthdays is the food, but hearing people greet me only at that day and never on others... just feels empty. This is scary. I've never related to a character as much as this one. It's as if I'm looking at myself.
