Ways of Parting
They really said they'll take the looooonnng way home, huh? But that was just, tooo much waiting and waffling about. I am still very happy with the end result and I wish all three of them well. Taejung sure dodged a bullet with his psychotic ex, though. I think, despite his poor communication, and his emotional constipation, Kwon's dedication to Yoon is truly commendable. Overall, it was really good. So sad. But good. 5
Again
Nokyung turned over a new leaf so fast, it's plain unrealistic. But so is dying and being given a second chance, years before you turned everything to ashes. So I guess, we'll allow it. Having said that, I love, love, love this Nokyung. Absolutely adore him. He's so brave and he's hella strong to be facing down that arsehole. I hope he makes, I really do. I really like his manager too. He's totally good people. Many other great people around Nokyung too. I'm glad he's keeping them around this time and letting go of all the people who used him before.

Attachment Love
Hiyama is a disillusioned cop, who lost the will to continue his job after an incident with an old man with dementia ended up in the old man's pet cat dying, resulting in him further going off the rails and stabbing someone. Hayama feels himself to be irredeemable, but finds his life being gjven new meaning by Ozazaki, the surprisingly innocent "flasher" he arrests but decides to let off the hook. It was good, and the extra really helped a lot. It's not a pleasant topic, but the mangaka did a good job. 4.5

It was just an inability to differentiate between different colours?! That was it?! FFS!!
Chicken Heart Serenade
The story of Hiromichi and Hayato. Neither had led a particularly happy childhood, ostracised and neglected, but the moments where they're ignoring that their sex-only relationship has progressed to them just enjoying each other's company wholeheartedly might be the sweetest of their lives. 5 It's so, so, so good. I am so mad at their awful parents. I 'm just sk happy and heartbroken at the same time. "I held a man with these hands" T.T I started bawling, ngl. 5!5!5! Putting this in my top 20
Aien Catharsis
A sweet and forbidden Taisho Era love story about a man who's fiancée had run out on him, and his new chauffeur. It was sweet, and, dare I say it, cathartic. 4.8
The Teijo Academy
It's intriguing. I want to see how this plays out but won't start again until they have a couple more chapters translated. Ch 9

WTF. That's just. No. Fuck off. 5. Fuckin hell.
