Gokutora no Honey Bunny
I really like the storyline and how they came to dating each other and progressing their relationship. Asuka’s character is really well developed and he’s such a cute, well mannered, and morally sound man (haven’t seen that in a while). Ao is a bit lukewarm to me..not saying that he is pathetic, feeble, or anything as a character, but I feel like there could’ve been more work done on fully fleshing out his likes and character, cuz we only knew he wasn’t a typical weak willed, whiny, virgin until the extra. Also the fact that the other gang got off w just a talk, all the while they almost RAPED Ao and stood for human trafficking??? Uhhhh that peeved me. Anywho there were select scenes I really liked — like how the community valued Asuka, his cousin and their interactions, and also the tender, awkward, intimate sex scene. A cute read overall. Ps. This was one of the few mangas where I couldn’t get myself to fully enjoy or get engrossed in the intimate scene cuz it felt so wrong lol..like I watched them grew up and be all sweet
My Secret Stalker
If you’re reading solely for entertainment this is so motherfucking perfect. I love the dynamics and the secret assertiveness and neediness of Tooru,,,his sleeping positions are also soooo cute and like comfy looking. I like his character a whole lot cuz I can understand his people pleaser tendencies that makes him neglect his own needs..like he’s so real lol. Don’t get me started on Yakumo, he’s the hottest mf I’ve seen in manga, like he’s meticulous and just perfect and a funny w the self awareness. The art is crazy gooooddttt. Okay, reading this with neurons activated…I gots to say the dynamic is problematic. Tooru is farrrr to dependent and I get that it’s his whole characters point, but like yakumo also made him even more dependent to the point where he almost couldn’t live without him….and I’m thinking wow, aren’t they all adults? This level of dependency is kinda eurgh… but that’s just me forcing myself to think critically. Love this manga so much lmfao.
Natsume-san wa Hirakaretai
I’ve got no complaints, everyone was so mature and there was such beautiful mutual respect between them. They are so cute and I feel that there were some important and common concerns that were discussed in this manga,,it was realistic. (Ngl I forgot both their names lol but my point still stands).
