plip's manga / #Romance(394)

not bad, i liked the story but the main plot seemed a bit ambiguous and the pacing was a bit off. maybe it was just too short. i liked the feel of this manga, like a pleasant melancholy, but i wish it did more.

"Kotaro has always admired the life of the "honorable outlaw" that he's seen so often in the yakuza movies of his youth…and it doesn't hurt that he’s set up to inherit his grandfather's role as the local yakuza boss! One day, after witnessing the quiet florist, Toraji, capture a purse-snatcher single-handedly, he declares him the ideal Big Brother he's always looked for in the syndicate. From that day on, Kotaro stalks Toraji at his flowershop, all the while falling in love. Toraji's dark past, including a criminal record from his affiliation with the yakuza, has hardened his heart against relationships…but will the ever-doting Kotaro help plant the seed of love to blossom once more?" ✰ E-Yakuza Florist Seme x Delinquent Naive Uke ⤷

(4.5 stars) this was actually really good...i loved the uke, and i liked that the issues presented weren't super cliche and contrived but it actually made sense. and when the issues came up the uke was immediately like 'ok cut the BS' kljkld

Yoshino is drawn to Rou's mysterious charm and they spend the night together talking... one thing leads to another and suddenly that's not the only thing they're doing tonight...?

Despite the possibility of him being a creep, however, Suchae is drawn to the mysterious stranger. " ✰ Traveler x Runaway ✰ TW: Tragedy, Suicide, Murder ⤷ WHAT THE FUCK NO ONE TALK TO ME.
