The Ichinose Family's Deadly Sins

Ongoing | Taizan5 | 2019 released

ch1. damn that really took an interesting turn lol ch10. what the actual fuck is going on. is the dad deliberately causing accidents? ch 14. much more depressing and dark in a real way than i expected. ch18. the plot thickens. so is grandpa in the dream but not aware of it? but that wouldnt make sense since it's not said that he's in a coma as well. following this line of reasoning, that means the grandpa who's in the loop is actually mc's subconscious whos trying to help mc get out of the coma...? hmm, or maybe he somehow, voluntarily or not, went into a coma to help mc get out. who is the controller of the dream land? even tho it's mc's dream, it's other people's dreams too (since there's things in the dreams mc doesnt know of ie. his sis's secret life). is sato and enemy or ally? he doesn't want mc to learn the truth (maybe it had happened in one of his amnesiac loops and it didnt go so well) but is he doing it out of goodwill?

07 Ghost

Complete | amemiya yuki | 2000 released

ch16. the lore is interesting, but it's hard to comprehend what's going on bc of the art. ch39. so my current theory is that the whole legend about veleron and the seven ghosts is much more complex than the established story. aya (the antagonist) is the reincarnated veleron, or the vessel of veleron. he wants to revive/find whoever is in pandora's box, be it actually veleron or another person, perhaps to destroy the world and remodel it according to his vision of a just world. even tho he's ruthless and seems heartless, i dont think he can be classified as a evil person. his vendetta against god might have a legit reason. ch43. huh, explains why aya is obsessed with catching him; so is he just gonna be used as a bargaining chip to overthrow the govt, or actually be killed to destroy the world? ch100. welp i was wrong. good story with intricate plot with several plot threads that all ties together. and interesting charas. the ending was a bit rushed tho. ngl the dialogue was a bit cliche and idealistic sometimes, some scenes i had no idea what's transpiring cuz of the art, it wouldve better if some charas and scenes had been more fleshed out. and the reveal that aya was teito's uncle was def so random.

any unconventional love(?) story excites me so let's see if this seme is actually his stalker or something. edit: after 12 chapters, maybe i should drop it, it's meandering around the amnesia issue (cmon mc, cant u try harder to recover ur lost memories, especially since you've vaguely realized someone pushed you off the stairs?), and they just hang out. mc's obviously gonna fall for him, but there's absolutely no psychological element, aside from mc's memory loss and ml's yandere-ness, but other than that it's just building their relationship. doesnt stand out from other bl works with similar premises so yeah edit: dropped, mc is too dumb for me

Moritat

it's very complicated, with several plot twists. however i felt that it couldve been presented in a more digestible way. it kinda felt all over the place, like the author is making it over-complicated for the sake of it. like, i get what's going on and stuff, but i think some overview narration would make me understand better, and thus appreciate the story more. esp the last 5 or so chapters. the author should've used it to clarify some stuff
