His Enemy Downstair
I hope the uke realizes what a good thing he had. I should be so lucky! Moron. Edit: The uke is legit a selfish piece of shit. But I can tolerate it because the seme seems happy Edit: Not gonna lie, Siwon still grates on my nerves badly. Sure, Yoonsong is overbearing at times, but he is so devoted and caring and always, always bending to suit Siwon, in comparison Siwon is such a selfish prick, tbh. I really dislike his treatment of Yoonsung, the way he mistrusts him, and belittles him. But. They're happy together, I guess. 4.45
I'll Never Moan for You!!
It's not treated like rape, not sure why. The uke doesn't really seem to see it that way? It's not like Hidoku Shinaide or many of those problematic mangas that acknowledge the rape but continue to push the forgiveness narrative or completely ignore it as the story progresses. Renya's already hooked before the second time they have sex and he's in love with Azuma. Ngl, I'm conflicted about this. I might like this one. Edit: 1: Still problematic but just cracky and SEP field-y enough to make it work 4.5 3: About a virgin teacher who loves reviewing sex toys and a student in love with him. Student X Teacher stories are always difficult, though it helps that the teacher isn't really in a position of authority and the student takes the lead. 4 4: A BDSM relationship, where they're still trying to figure out each others needs. Some surprisingly (in my asian perspective) western BDSM elements in there. But the misunderstanding kind of ruins it a tiny bit. Also, this isn't really my kink, this kind of constantly mean dirty talk. I need it to be peppered with some praise and tenderness. 4.4 5: Why is this even here??! About a clan of demons that can trigger mpreg through the combined power of a bite and coming inside someone, regardless of gender. At first, it looks like they raped some poor unsuspecting member of a rival clan and left them pregnant. Much body horror, ughh. Then, one of them rapes the other, and they end up fleeing together to gjve birth and raise the kid, because apparently, inflicting that on your own people is a crime (but everyone else is fair game? Wow). Really honestly just hated it, including the fact that they just keep sweeping all this rape under the rug. 2
Teasing Voice
Sequel 1 of Voice series 1: Continuation of Wataru and Naruhisa's story, where an even more devious seme (Mizushima, yet another voice actor) becomes interested in the couple and tries to sow discord for NO APPARENT REASON! Honestly, this seme is even worse. 3.8 2: Inaba is an innocent and happy-go-lucky voice actor who hasn't had much luck and isn't as talented as the rest of the lot. His air-headedness unfortunately catches the interest of Mizushima, who is possibly takes his cues from the literal devil. Didn't think I could be more disappointed in the reactions of an uke in this series, yet here we are. I suppose not knowing he is being abused probably helps him cope better with the situation? Hell, I don't know. It frustrates me. The seme is such utter scum. The uke could do SO much better. I am angry at the uke but much, much angrier on his behalf. 2.4 4: Sequel to Kazumi (the voice actor) and Takafumi's (comedian/actor) story, where Kazumi won't say he lives him. Yeesh. I mean, I didn't like how all the onus was on Takafumi, but. I also get why it might be hard for someone reserved like Kazumi. And, heck, even this is starting to look good compared to the 2nd one. 3.9 5: Tiny oneshot about, Haruki, a honour student, and his boyfriend (no name). Bf is super ready for the physical aspects of the relationship as well as the emotional. Haruki is less prepared. It was okay. Nothing I would write home about. Just tell someone if you're not ready. It's okay. Don't leave them guessing. 4 Overall: 3.5
Stand-Offish Voice
Sequel 2 of Voice series 1: Continuation of Takafumi and Kazumi's story, where Kazumi doesn't express his wants yet again and misunderstands by himself and gets made at Takafumi, yet again. Really tired of this, tbh. 3.8 4: Continuation of Norihisa and Wataru, where Wataru misunderstands something Norihisa said, and takes it to heart. Ngl, kinda feel bad for both of them here. Glad it got resolved. 4 5: Continuation of Inaba and Mizushima's story, where Mizushima pretends to break up with Inaba, just to try and get a rise out of him. He's just such an arsehole, I wish the uke would become incredibly famous and desirable and make him super jealous!!! At least, Inaba does seem to have him handled, more or less. 4
Devilish Voice
Sequel 3 of Voice series 1: Continuation of Norihisa and Wataru's story. Wataru gets a lead role (as a devilish detective) and his career starts picking up steam. But Norihisa suddenly starts acting distant? Is he not happy with Wataru's success? I hate to admit. I hate it, but they're really growing on me? They've both undergone amazing character development. They're definitely my favourite of the bunch. I'm kinda rooting for them, at this point. Ugh. 4.4
Complicated Voice (Worship My Voice- 6 -)
Sequel 5 of Voice series 1: Continuation of Mizushima and Inaba's story. Mizushima is obsessed with teasing the people he loves and making them cry. When he finally succeeds with the unflappable Inaba, it doesn't really feel good. Ffs! Not in a million years would this dude deserve Inaba!! I get so mad at how callous and mean he is, sometimes. And the nerve! To mistrust him like that! But at the same time, this guy is so gone on Inaba. It's hard to hate someone whi clearly lives Inaba so much. Ah, the conundrum. 4.3 3: Continuation of Kazumi and Takafumi's story. Rather, telling us how they met and became sex friends. This story certainly does not endear Kazumi to me. He's so quick to judge and distrust. I don't like that. But he's certainly had character growth to some extent, so ther eis that. 4 5: Continuation of Norihisa and Wataru's story. About Wataru praising how kind Yu is and Norihisa trying to copy Yu's mannerisms and style, so that Wataru doesn't get bored of him. But Wataru reassures him that all he needs to be is himself. Was okay, one more chapter would have been nice. 4.3
