Katsubou no Manazashi
Mixed feelings on this. I really just can't see this one as one cohesive story, it feels like two completely separate stories. One half is a nightmare and the other is a fluffy love story. I just really don't buy how a simple miscommunication can make such a difference in the story, or how the uke can suddenly flip from feeling violated & abused with the seme who he sees as a parental figure (incestous), to suddenly feeling cared for and loved and seeing this person as a lover instead. Surely there would be some residual feelings or trauma, but no he's just magically cured of all his fear for the seme and filled with love.... Not buying it...
Gekkou No Rankan Ni Kuchinashi No Nioi
The last chapter raised a pretty interesting concept about souls and reanimation and whatnot. I'm curious that the MC wanted to make an artificial body for Takeshi- once you die, you can possess any empty body however many times you want?
Wakabaryou de, Kimi to
A nice, cute, simple shounen ai/bl story. Nothing particularly remarkable, but the couples leave you with a soft feeling.
Yumemiru Taiyou
I stopped reading at 40th chapter but am not putting it in dropped because I'd finish it if I were less bored/tired. But, as it is, the end is pretty predictable, and I don't feel like watching the main couple flounder about for 7 more chapters just to finally date properly. Only wish for Zen to be happy with the bishoujo. And maybe the dad to get some comeuppance for being a perennial asswipe. But, overall, it wasn't bad. Despite the fact that it was built on a pretty shaky premise (who the hell goes to live with 3 strangers?), it had its funny moments. It did drag on (I thought chapter 24 was only a few chapters out from the end lol), but it comes with the territory I guess.
Going to You
I guess it's okay for one of HMR's manhwas? A bit dull and very little actual resolution but I'm kind of just glad that she didn't put out another 14 volume series that would have ended after 6 had the author not drudged up pointless side character after character.
Allegro Agitato
This was...interesting. Once again, this author has a superb ability to convey the darkest of emotions in such a clean way. It's very curious; the art isn't particularly hard or convoluted, but all of her stories seem to convey it so well.
Hyakunen Renbo
Cute? Story about a witch who saves a 5th prince, falls in love, and then has to overcome the kingdom's scorn to marry her love now that he's been given the title of king. And all while dodging the 1st prince who's doing whatever he can to take the right to rule back. Ending was dull; I felt like the last 2 chapters could have been more interesting, and we could have gotten a much better resolution with the older brother.
