My Darling Liar Boy

Complete | Akai shirafu | 2022 released

Despite it being very weirdly random (in porn type ways), it's such a lovely little story with really great characters. There are moments I wish it was less random and made more sense or let's say read more realistically and smoothly, but even so it's still a great read. Funny, cute, emotional, wholesome and smutty all in one. Art is good too tho it has an 'older' feel to it, but I don't think it should be a deal breaker given it's still good. :) Definitely recommended. Has it's issues but not bad enough to bother me as much. They are more like a tad bit cringey or eyeroll choices in terms of writing. Something to giggle or sigh at while laughing, if that makes sense. XD

When Pear Blossoms Bloom

Ongoing | Hwim | 2022 released

I'm not really feelin this one. And it's already been 12 chapters. I know what it was supposed to be but somehow the story just feels more like the plot and it's happenings are controlling the characters, rather than this being a naturally flowing story. Like a very obvious fanfiction dictating characters into a specific direction without any flow, just goals in mind. If that makes sense? ( ̄∇ ̄") Kinda like a car steering the driver, not the driver steering the car. It feels forced and unpleasant that literally everything is forcing the MC into situations we all know he would get into anyway, just makes it faster tho, whcih i do not find well-wrtiiten. The puppy dog love interest is really nice but the other one really isn't. He lacks the specific appeal an arrogant and proud character like him needs to have, so he just comes off as a dickhead with porn-reasoning so far. I don't really feel invested. Especially not since the author made the mistake to pretend the MC has serious fear of his disgusted love interest, yet the very next panel they force him into a situation with him, making him look like a blushy maiden again. That type of inconsistency in character behavior has always bothered me and it breaks immersion each time I notice it. The base story is nice but the execution is forced in the truest sense of the word. This might not be a problem for everyone, but I for one don't like the writing and not even the characters. So I personally wouldn't recommend this, but check it out and see if it might be your thing.
