Rutta To Kodama
Barefoot Angel
Simple and sweet. Translation was a little stilted that gave an odd feeling to the story, but it was a nice and enjoyable read.
Here and There and Us
20+ This was surprisingly good! A slow paced slice of life story that just focuses on the daily lives of two high school boys and them getting to know each other as we get to know them. And before you know it you are completely wrapped up and invested in them! Sweet and endearing, well paced and well written. It has a bit of that nostalgic feeling, and very immersive in the high school experience. The strangers to friends to lovers story was very realistically told, and it felt as if I was learning their story rather than reading a comic. The characters have kind of opposite personalities, a friendly and popular guy and the introverted socially awkward one. But they are so much more than that, their characters were really nicely fleshed out with depth and nuance that made them feel very real. Tiniest bit of romance at the very very end, but at least we get a confirmation that they are a couple. 4/5
Secret Therapy
list - enemies to lovers Art is really pretty and there’s lots of smut, but I couldn’t quite get into it. Characters are ok, plot was a bit boring, and I didn’t really connect emotionally. But they were sweet together and really enjoyed the sex so that was fun to read. Side couple was a really interesting and different dynamic, but we only got a few chapters of them. Overall good read for some sweet, fairly mindless smut.
