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

This was excellent rivals to lovers with sexual tension and a bickering dynamic that lasted till the end! Sexy with that longing and repressed emotion satisfaction. Surprisingly sweet and with good development and build up. Love it. And new volume! We have the typical guy as a seme, straight until he met uke, a confident but tactless and brash type. Uke is the more stoic on the outside, perfectionist by the books type, but is secretly gay and in love. He doesn't like showing his emotions but does let it slip sometimes and is quite cute. POV from the seme so we find out with him about the uke's feelings, though we get hints of it before.

59: fantastic!! Interesting and unique premise with great characters and a dose of comedy. The characters have distinct personalities and back stories, and are quite different from the usual tropes. Uke is straightforward and tough, a hard worker and can come across as uncaring or unsympathetic but really he’s just a bit simple minded and not too fussed about the little things. He can be a bit dense but he’s a good guy and the people around him know that. Seme is quite stony and unapproachable, used to be more lively as a teenager in the past but his world kind of crumbled around him and now it seems he’s disillusioned and has trust issues. He’s pretty expressionless so far. They have an interesting bickering dynamic right now that is highly entertaining. Uke can be quite childish in his news to win every argument and talk back smartly. He’s always got a quick witted comeback and an even quicker temper. Love it so far.

list - 9.5+ 60+ Fucking adoooorable!!! Oh my this was refreshingly healthy and lovely to read. These two are so in love and obsessed with each other it’s amazing. And yes in the beginning you want to smack the Seul but he does make up for it and Jun always has a soft spot for Seul, but he does stand up for himself more than the majority of other uke’s I’ve seen. Jun is just a soft fluff cinnamon roll to the max, and Seul is the type of pretty polite on the outside but quite a snake on the inside. His persistence became a bit stalkerish at one point but it all worked out for the best. A case of Jun fell first but Seul fell harder lol and his confidence and delusions were hilarious and refreshing. Nice host of side characters that had their own personalities and we saw enough to get a sense of their character traits and relationships with the MCs, but not where they took any focus away. Also very realistic and normal interactions were depicted. Seul and Jun had a good mix of horny and fluffy, and while Seul can be persistent he cares for Jun most of all and will listen to him especially if he thinks he’s hurting him. The only one I’ve actually seen stop in the middle of the act bc Jun asked him too a few times (once not bc of pain but an impending fountain lol). Seul can be quite jealous and childish as well as manipulative, but after they get together he never does anything to hurt Jun. and I think he repented well enough for his previous harsh words and rejections. I don’t think we needed any more suffering for him, it was handled well and perfectly balanced. Very clingy and doting but that’s what they both like. A very complete story with even the side stories adding some nice detail. Wishing these two lovebirds the best.

list - 9.5+ , cuddle 80+ Aww this really was so simple and sweet. Lovely little school romance and we get to follow these cuties as they fall in love. The dating advice misunderstanding but was fun and not too dragged out either, and they were refreshingly straightforward with their feelings after. The characters surprised me with how normal they acted, nothing was over the top dramatic. No one is overly stupid or serious either. From cuddly lovey dovey couple. I would have liked a bit more of the second couple, but their story seems pretty wrapped up. Shame they wasted 8 years bc of that, hate those kinds of tropes especially when it didn’t seem like there was any good reason really for the break up. But still a cute dynamic.

Super cute and hilarious!! This had an unexpected humor that was a lot of fun to read, with a super green flag adorable puppy seme and tyrannical sometimes violent black cat uke. But they really love each other and it was so sweet as well as quite sexy and funny. A great little gem of a read.

list - seme pov, smut fluff Sex friends to lovers and I looooove their characters and dynamic!! The persistent and flirty uke who also seems ready to give up the relationship at any time, the straight seme who was first trying to avoid him but gave in to his carnal desires. The relationship that started out backwards, from sex friends, to a first kiss and becoming lovers, to finally saying I love you. The progression was nice though as they became comfortable in each others lives and realized their feelings. A bit of longing and possessiveness from both sides. Both are also equally horny lol.

☆ ➼ reunion / masochism ➼ violent stoic seme x masochistic sweet uke Interesting and surprisingly cute with some lovely character growth masochist - uke Reread it now and the seme seems to have a bit of a different personality to the prequel. In the prequel he was more sly and manipulative, in this one he is more lonely and aloof. It doesn't feel like the same character, but it is and sucks bc he was really abusive to the uke in the first story. This one turned out quite cute though, he was violent at first tho the uke is a masochist and he stopped once they developed feelings. The uke was weirdly clingy and stalkerish in the beginning so the first parts were a bit rough, but they grew on me. Seme is the aloof kind but is really lonely and ends up quietly spoiling uke. Uke is the honor student type and gentle but persistent, and this persistent love is what wins over seme in the end. Seme needed someone to love all of him and stay by his side, and uke is able to nurture that part of him. They end up being a cute couple and helping each other with their personal family problems.

list - cotton candy, This was soooo wholesome!! I loved the progression of their relationship, from becoming friends and learning more about each other, and supporting each other and realizing their feelings. Characters with some depth and backstory added weight to the relationship and their feelings. Both very likeable and so sweet. I really really enjoyed this one, probably one of my favorite jock x nerd, popular x unpopular type stories where there is a realistic connection of two very different types of people. They saw each other for who they were and fell in love, it was beautiful.
