Ambrosia's manga / #loved a lot(139)

list - webtoon, 9.5+ 90+ Multiple couples full color lightsabers First couple - broke up and got back together, biting, ear and tail toys Second couple - unrequited love, older uke lots of physical affection, especially first couple after they get together Really enjoyed this. Lots of smut but also a good story and wholesome moments. Both couples are very sweet and very in love. Personally vibed with the second couple more but both are great. It had good developments for character and relationships. I loved that you can really feel how much the couples love each other. Adored the second couple! First couple was cute too but the possessiveness of the seme was uncomfortable at times and their communication wasn't great, but they do love each other and are quite affectionate and cute. Second couple felt a lot more healthy and mature. They love each other a lot and also want to do things for the other and enjoy spending time together. They also have their issues but resolve in a grown up way and their issues are more grounded in reality than simply jealousy or insecurity. The last argument was a good example: Yoonseol planning an investment so that Jungsoo isn't working overtime all the time and can spend more time together, but without consulting Jungsoo bc he knows how stubborn he is and he'll refuse right away. But Jungsoo has been hurt in the past with the investment issue so he's reluctant to proceed and upset that Yoonseol is doing this without his knowledge and the head of the company. Even in this issue you can see how much they care for each other, and once they communicate and see each other's side clearly, it resolves well. Lovely and grown couple, sweet and sexy and fun to read.

70+ Interesting soul swap type story. Seme is yandere, uke is a military agent transported to the body of a trashy actor. Action thriller with secret agent type plot. Started with one sided hate from seme side until her realizes the true soul in the body, which was his first love. Truly a case of loving the soul and not the body it’s housed in.

24.5: this is kind of wild but very entertaining lol. It has some good melancholic moments among the chaos and comedy that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Lots of great smut too, basically just a friends with benefits situation at first with a very slow growing relationship. But even without feelings acknowledged, there’s a lot of physicality and affection and a high level of comfortableness. Plot is interesting and unique and I really have no idea where it is going to go. It doesn’t dive too deeply into the emotions or emotional connections, but maybe we will get there eventually. Thinking about it, it’s a similar vibe to the author’s other couple - funny with bits of drama and very affectionate couple. This one is more raunchy than wholesome so far, but I feel like they’re a lot more equal and kind of the same lonely people deep down.

list - unique, unconventional 80+ A psychopath that’s actually shown as one and a murder mystery plot that kept me eagerly reading for more. This reminded me a bit of Death Note with the self-justified murder and cat-mouse chase. Nothing is safe when dealing with a high functioning psychopath, but it was a very entertaining ride.

Nothing is safe when dealing with a high functioning psychopath, but it was a very entertaining ride. really liked this one, will review another time. Murder mystery was really good, romance was ok but became oddly cute at the end even though it's not exactly healthy, but they're trying. Start was a bit unclear and odd, but I really enjoyed it by the end. Reminded me of a cat and mouse chase, L and Light type of detective hunting murderer, so that murder mystery plot was really interesting. And Kirin kind of got caught in the middle of it and becomes an accomplice. Does sympathize with murderers though and give him redemption without really having to pay for it, so he gets away with it in the end. 4.5/5

list - masterlist, hidden gem 30+

50+ Loved it! Very affectionate couple with a puppy like seme and a shy sweet uke. Started as sex friends but they were affectionate from the beginning and it was nice to see them discover their feelings, tho they had an instant connection. Side drama about the workplace, but really enjoyed how it showed uke’s growth of character in that aspect.

8: Oooh interesting premise with a cool lil kid and mystery history between the two. I like that the characters are given some depth, and their banter is fun. The kid is so deadpan and hilarious, but they’re doing a good job with her. Up to 8 now and I LOVE their dynamic and the storytelling. While keeping up with the fun daily lives of these two useless guys and the too grown for their nonsense kiddo Meguru, we get bit by bit some insight into their history, feelings for each other, and current worries and thoughts. Sentarou is a musician/composer who was in a band and now struggles to sell music as he’s been ghostwriting under his friend (former lover??). He struggles a bit with inferiority/insecurity about his music and is finding his passions again. Also he had a major crush on Touma when they first met which was ruined by overhearing and misunderstanding Touma’s harsh words about his band, and then finding him with Ririko. Still kind of has a crush but would die before admitting it lol. Also kind a a tsundere and naggy but a good guy at heart and concerned for others. Touma is a yakuza member who seems to hate that but isn’t really trying to get out of that kind of life. Seems like he was born into a yakuza family or something but has a bit of a complex about being a thug, but doesn’t really try to be better. Seems he knew or at least suspected Sentarou’s feelings the first time they met, and possibly also had feelings of his own that he never really acknowledged. Was unconsciously disappointed to find out Sen and Ririko were dating at the time. I think he kind of always admired Sen and his talent and passion for composing music, and sees him as this like bright and decent person that he’d never become. I think he’s starting to come to a realization about his own feelings once he realized Sen might have actually had feelings for him, so I’m excited to see how they progress. Some delicious mutual pining right now, I know the slow burn is going to be fantastic. Their dynamic is so fun and almost a kind of enemies dynamic with how much they bicker.

list - 9.5+ 100+ 78: The relationship developed quite suddenly from what was building up as a friendship, but it also felt very natural. Very affectionate couple that is quite cute. Tough straightforward uke with a sweet protective seme. Interesting overarching lore about the characters and their backgrounds and how they are all connected, but also some interesting short ghost busting adventures. Good world building and mix of drama and humor. Felt like it was missing a tad bit of nuance, but overall very interesting read.

list - 9.5+, babies This was beyond adorable and pure. It nicely touched on some of the troubles of gay parenthood and Nao’s loneliness without getting too sad and always seeing through to a resolution. Good communication and wonderful parenting. Really adored this little manga.

Ooh this was a lovely little story, nice pace and realistic but sweet. The couple has a fun kind of banter going on and quite clear attraction. Seme’s straightforwardness and laize faire approach was fun too.
