Good day to go crazy

Famous idol and down in the dumps but absolutely sweet little hardworking uke. Gunna be good Edit: I'm 100% sure I did not read a bit of the manhwa before making the above review. Not only does it not make a lick of sense in the context of the story, I also have no recollection of having read this Edit: Okay, no, it makes sense, I must have only read the very first introductory chapter, when I reviewed this. Anyway. What a ride! Leeseo, one of the most famous and talented singers in the country (and to some extent, world) gets dumped on Hosoo's doorstep by his old friend, Dohyun. That's it, at the surface. But in reality, their lives are etwined in ways they aren't even fully aware of. If there was ever a fated pair, this is it. They met and comforted and gave strength to each other throughout their lives in different shapes and forms. They were both unwanted and thrown away and lived incredibly difficult, traumatic childhoods. Their tormentors continued to use and abuse them through extortion late into their 20s. They both had estranged but loving half siblings and friends who would go to great lengths for them. I love that they get married. People always act like you can't just go somewhere and do that. Like it's not an option. Later in the story, Leeseo's estranged and traumatised brother (Woojoo) who doesn't know how to show affection (and causes them a lot of trouble) is abandoned, and finds his solace in Dohyun's arms. Dohyun uses his own dark past and less than savoury connections to tie up all loose ends. I don't like how their first time happened, though. But I know Dohyun will keep him safe and loved forever. What was so satisfying about this is that a lot of their tormentors got exactly what they deserved. From death, to a life of forced menial labour. They deserved it. Shitty rapist pedo abusive extortionists. Rot. I also loved that Hosoo stopped sending money to his adopted family and started to finally live for himself. It took a lot of strength and I wish hos sister had pushed him in that direction from the start, instead of Hosoo being so trumatised as to decide to finally do that. Please let them be happy now. 5*

Pretty pissed aat how no one is considering'g his feelings, but everyone is concerned bouut Kei. What if Kei hurts him, huh? What then? Kei is not the only one with a heart. Kei's probably the uke too. Ugh. Disappointed. 4 Chap 1: Yup. Still hate all the annoying af side characters giving Dai chan the shovel talk, but no one's fucking standing up for him. Hate it. 3.8* Chap 4: I don't know. Touma trying to break up with Chiaki after so many years because of his insecurities while trying to blame it on the possible impacts of their relationship in Chiaki's career... it was incredibly selfish. 3.8 Chap 5: Takeuchi lived Tokida's closely shorn head! Tokida was way too harsh when he denied they were dating. But he went after Takeuchi right away, so instant redemption. Liked their vibe overall and definitely the best story of the bunch. 4.2

Ahhh. This attempted rapist. I hope they give it to him good. And this uke! Even after everyone warmed him!! Welp. Glad they made it in time. Seme a tad unreasonable at first but maybe will redeem himself. Second story also great. Tsundere semes who can't help themselves then go overboard are my jam. However, both needed more smut. Would have been hot. Especially the second

I don't even know, with this one each story has way too many layers. You just, neeed to read it! 1: a washed up idol and his fan who wins a sleepover with him. Too short, though. 4.5 * 2: rich classmate from the past swoops in just in time to buy over his debt and force him into the oddest servitude. If you can even call it that 5* 3: a man who gets kidnapped, seemingly by a stalker. But all is not as appears 5* 4: a clone and the person who commissioned him. Or is it...? 5* Extrememly interesting stories, the last two with excellent twists. The first was so hot! Overall 5

Hinata's always been in love with his childhood friend Hakuba, who already has a super cute and tiny boyfriend, the exact opposite of Hina. Takaomi, the leader of Hina's boy group finds out about his unrequited love. Lackluster and disappointing ending to a plot with potential. Plus, the way he never even found out about Hina's love... where's the closure, bruh?? 4.4 Edit: Oh! It was falsely labelled as completed. And it's super interesting??

Minehito is an interviewer who gave a small idol group their first big break. When he meets, and over the years, gets to know Rui, their prince charming, he is at first suprised by and later, interested in the duality of his personality. There, Minehito finds solace and acceptance for his own secret self. Good, but a tad boring. Still, the sex scene was so meaningful and their relationship is so special, I liked it. I do think Minehito's character was a bit all over the place sometimes. He was cute, though. And Rui, too, while hard to gauge at first, was still cute. Neither were the typical mcs you fall in love with. But both were good in their own ways- and not annoying, cruel, unreasonably stubborn or sfmelfish, at least. 4.6

Baby's in so much pain. Why is there an army fighting this child. So much hatred towards one single person. How is he to bear it. He's so innocent. It's not fair.
