Tsukuritai Onna to Tabetai Onna

Ongoing | YUZAKI Sakaomi | 2021 released

Beautiful, amazing, wholesome. I am so happy that I saw a video talking about this manga, and that I decided to check it out. I love the food, but I also love their relationship. I love that they talk about life in general, and that we see some of their conflict with day to day life. Like when Nomoto say's she made her lunch, and that dude was like you'd make a good wife+mother, which has nothing to do with her love for cooking. And when Kasuga was at the restaurant and the man gave her a smaller rice portion, or when that guy told her about the beer with potstickers. And just overall frustrations with little things in life. I love that they show that, and how fucking sweet they are!! Edit bc Vol. 2 just got updated. I still love it and I do like the way they're both processing their feelings towards each other. Like Nomoto-san was like, "Yeah, I'm gay for Kasuga-san, and that's okay" and can I just say, I love that. Maybe it's because she's an adult, but she was so mature and the way she processed it, despite remembering all the things she'd been told growing up, she was still like "it is okay for me to feel these things" because it is. I also really like how her romantic attraction for Kasuga-san doesn't become the main highlight like I've seen in other romance manga i.e. when the person realized they have a crush and things get really awkward until they ignore said crush and are later forced to confess etc, not a fan of that, so this is really refreshing. And can I just say, Kasuga-san beginning to realize her feelings towards Nomoto-san is so wholesome. Because we don't always suddenly realize that we like a person, and so I really love the author's take on both women realizing their feelings. Can't wait for Vol. 3!

I’m Not a Villainess!! Just Because I Can Control Darkness Doesn’t Mean I’m a Bad Person!

Ongoing | Otonashi satsuki,Fujiwara rika | 2019 released

loved it, but fuck her parents, and fuck the people that drove the first person blessed by the dark king to becoming a "villain" home boy did nothing wrong, Claudia did nothing wrong, and these people are all scared of her for what? what reason? They sent a fucking child to war, what the fuck is wrong with them. Especially when they were like "Oh we'll let her decide whether or not she wants to go to the war front" like are you stupid? Putting the pressure of thousands of lives on one 14-year old is a fucking low blow. If she refused, she'd be shamed, if she went there was always the possibility of dying, and it's not like they gave her any armor! Like sure, she has Gerald, but there's only so much Gerald can do. What if they had been overwhelmed, she would have had no means of protecting herself, but I mean, clearly they weren't thinking of her safety when they sent a fucking teen to the frontlines. She was way too soft, I would have left the fucking country, but I guess that goes to show what a kind and forgiving person she is, and also bc she really didn't take any shit. Claudia was straight up just born and did nothing wrong, but I'm so glad that she managed to find people that cared for her, and weren't scared of her just because Gerald blessed her. And I love Gerald, he's my homie, and I love that Claudia gets a happy ending after all the shit she went through.

REVERSE (Yuitsu)

Complete | Yuitsu | 2018 released

I have to give it a 3/5 because the translation becomes a little incoherent at some point, but the story overall, or what I could understand from what was going on, is really interesting-- though I can't say much about it because I got a little confused. That aside though, I really enjoyed the fact that Detective Ukishima got all hot and bothered from dangerous situations and how Makabe just rolls with it, bc he's definitely into it too. I like seeing they play off one another during their sexy time, but I really like and appreciate how their sexy time and growing feelings for the other doesn't interfere or hinder the plot in moving forward. If the translations were a bit better in the later chapters, this would probably be somewhere between a 4/5 to a 5/5 for me, but I appreciate the translators for doing their best, I know it's not an easy job. ^^

I love it so far. Event though she was scared of him at the beginning and even now is a little apprehensive when it comes to him, I really like that she's just like kinda chill with him, and isn't afraid to communicate with him. Also, I love his diehard love for his OTP and his work, love the dedication lol. Can't wait to see where this goes! 5/5 so far

Kibyou Musume to Toribito no Hiyaku

Beautiful work, 10/10 recommend. God I wish it was longer, but the author perfectly executed the story in a way that it would be nice if there was more, but is fine with just the one chapter!
