narutolvr's manga / #Drama(85)

This was pretty good- though I'm a sucker for female leads who can fight! But it didn't get dragged on as much as some of her other works so I was pretty satisfied. A nice wrap up, though I do wish we could've gotten a bit more of a happy end after all the trouble they went through. After both of them give up their families and he almost dies he asks her to date him? At least say lovers or ask for an engagement or something?! Good story otherwise

This one didn't really leave much of an impression on me. Maybe because all of the drama resolved without too much trouble. It was pretty good I suppose?

Once again, I'm all about HMR's works that involve a female lead who can actually fight. And I also happen to like gender bender type mangas so this one was pretty much up my alley. Not to mention, it was done pretty well so I have no complaints

This may have been the first manga I ever completed so it certainly has a special place in my heart. And, boy, what a manga to call my first! Although it seemed to start out so simple and light hearted, this manga really showed itself to be unexpectedly complex. The author did a great job of slowly revealing the dark emotions in all of the characters in a realistic way, like slowly peeling away layers of an onion until you're left with nothing but the raw insides. In fact, this author's greatest talent might be the verisimilitude of her characters; it's like you're watching real live people interact. But I digress. I just wanted to say that this manga will make you laugh, and cry, and reevaluate the way you look at yourself and the people around you. I think it's a great manga to read when entering or leaving adolescence as it serves as a reminder that people are difficult and confusing and cruel, but are rarely evil.

Yay female leads who can fight! This was my first ever HMR manhwa aka the rabbit hole to Wonderland. I'm still trying to find my way out lol. But it's good! I preferred the first 12/13 volumes to the second half of the story, but the entire series was fairly interesting. A few of HMR's bad habits do pop up in this story, though, probably due to the length of the series: repetitive scenes with only small differences in between them, trying and failing to be overly philosophical and just sounding confused/high (which was only an issue in the very end), and, of course, her inability to vary the appearances of her characters (2 possible faces, 4 possible hairstyles, 3 possible hair colors = 24 possible distinguishable characters, any more and you can't tell them apart). All in all, it was a really good series and I would definitely recommend giving it a try.

Started strong but the end was bland. There wasn't much resolution for any of the characters; it seemed like they all just kept up with or abandoned their poisonous relationships while still pining away for someone else. Not to mention, the plot had quite a few areas that felt like complete rip-offs of Anatolia Story, but not done near as well, which was a bit of an annoyance. But it wasn't a complete waste of time, I'd just recommend stopping at volume 6.

I liked it, despite the fact that the main guy was a demanding asshole. Not much else to say; it's a pretty typical HMR/HYR series complete with all the tropes: guy still in love with beautiful friend who is dating someone else (usually former friend of guy's), said guy falling for main heroine and being screwed over by the main guy and his crush, multiple girls after main guy because he's super rich (and personalities don't matter once your parents have money, apparently), etc...boring

Hmm...can't remember why I like this one in particular so much but I did. It's got all the mix-ins for an HMR/HYR sundae but this one really kept my interest for a long time. Go figure

Aww one of my first mangas! It was cute, fun, interesting, heartbreaking and all that (though I may just be going off of the memories lol). But it is a genuinely good story, despite the fact that the author has her bouncing back and forth from Toji to Kiley like a game of tennis lol. At a certain point, I just wanted a random, baggage-free 3rd guy to come in and sweep Momo off her feet while telling Sae to go fuck herself. But I guess how it ended was fine too ╮(￣▽￣)╭

It started out moderately interesting (I'd give it 3 stars) but the chapters 14 & 15 were so awful I couldn't believe it. The ending was so rushed that it ruined the entire story! First off, how did the author think it would be okay to reconcile 2 couples and a pair of friends in all of 10 pages? So 2 years of hatred and misunderstanding are gone with a simple high five? Did Hero ever take back his withdrawal? Who destroyed Megumi's house and how/why did she come across Hero and come to depend on him, especially when she liked Ouji so much? If Hero knew their feelings were mutual, why didn't he just tell Ouji where she was rather than waste 2 years taking care of her? I'm assuming her paid her rent too, considering her family went bankrupt. And the whole "weak body" situation just seemed like a convenient excuse the author had pop up out of thin air considering the Megumi of the past seemed perfectly healthy and we never actually saw her get sick or injured or anything that would cause her to become so physically fragile. Not to mention, this author seems to have a really bad habit of making her characters act cold as their only means of communication. Ouji acts coldly, then Hero acts coldly, then Megumi acts coldly to Hana for staying close to Hero after making that request, then Hero acts coldly again, then that random girl who likes Ouji ends her friendship act all of a sudden and turns cold too? ...what?!!! It made so little sense I couldn't stop rolling my eyes the entire time I was reading.
