Save me gently
i dont even know how to start this, because holy shit. ig to start off, the PLOT, oh my god, the plot. holy fucking shit lmaooo i was expectign something completely different back when i first started reading this, and im honestly so glad it ended up like this, because it was so beautifully done. i really enjoyed each character's backstories and how they were properly made and all, and while they aren't the most unique, it was still such a step above other bls because of how nuanced the characters were - you could never really hate anyone in the end, because those backstories really helped shape them - this author did such a good job at showing the complexity of a person, how no one is truly bad or good, and the influence of past experiences - especially with bei guang. ik a lot of people hated him, but his character, as i expected, was explained, and im so glad everyone had a happy ending. i love the author so much because of that (i always love a good tragic "villain"), and the author's talk about the importance of knowing someone fully before being able to say you love them is a philosiphy i stand by SO much, and so many people nowadays forget that and think theyre in love but only with whatever they know about the person, which usually isn't a lot - but thats another tangent for another time, the author also had a little exo reference in a ringtone which was dope i really feel like me and the author would get along pretty well ong but even that aside, their relationship and the way it progressed was so natural, i loved it so much, i got a lotta pangs hehaehj this was one of the only bls ive ever read which was able to make me cry at one part, i dont remember when exactly but i believe it was related to xiang yang and his mother (yeah it was for sure now that i remember), and the way that his mom passed while they were in an argument reminds me of the times which my parents are always like "if we die tmr and this is the last convo we have will u feel good ab urself" ik i wont and this reminded me of that, this author really knows how to hit me personally but regardless, those are just a few of the things i love about this. this will DEFINITELY be a recommend, i for sure enjoyed this and i hope theyll have future works (idk if they do, it says on mgo theres a couple but they dont look similar at all so its prolly not true), either way they did a PHENOMENAL job and this was honestly just an emotional rollercoaster (chinese manhuas istg they always hit different) - all in all, 100000/10 stars side note: one of those nights, key and crush (shit matched WAY too well and it helped put so much more emotion in reading it)
Eigyou Nika!
this should be the gold standard for a solid feel-good bl manga because thats exactly what it is theres no really dumb stupid cliché drama (or at least for the most part) and it still delivers on being so fun to read now that i think of it despite not having a real plot plot it still managed to be so entertaining no extreme fluff its just their relationship is so nice and just really nice. the development of their relationship is the best, its totally my type of romance ong the way they slowly progress is perfect for my pangs n all that and if i ever made a bl, i would definitely make it like this one. the romance part is crazy good it got me feelin real single now man forget a romantic relationship i just want what they have in general man this went so hard and since it got a drama cd looks like other people agree as well as they should frfr their dynamic is so cute and just, well, feel-good really this was such a delight to read, all in all 1000000/10 stars!!!111!1!1!11!!11 side note: blah blah by tbz (GO LISTEN TO IT IT GOES W THIS MANGA AND ITS SO GOODDDD TBZ B-SIDES ARE HELLA UNDERRATED)
Living With Him
why is this…so damn GOOD???? like holy shit it’s the perfect amount of fluff to the point where it’s not overwhelming but it’s just so realistic and sweet and cute and i crave their relationship ong me and who nah but fr this was so good mc was so sweet and kind of had the same thoughts i did when i was confessed to as well? idk man but either way this was so sweet obviously would recommend, especially to non bl fans because it’s so perfect and just a good ol love story. 100/10 sTaRs!1!1!!11!!1!1!1 hold me tight verivery

holy shit if there was a single bl manga i could recommend to anyone which is more plot driven, this is it. this is def in my top mangas because of how damn well written it is, how the emotions are conveyed, their dynamic, the characters themselves, the panels, everything is drawn so damn well like the panels and stuff it leaves you speechless the way in conveys different feelings and stuff (like the different cuts to little flashes of what’s happening idk how to describe it) it just works so well. it was actually HELLA interesting because well read it to see it :)) i knew he would recover his memories when looking at his grandpa and sheesh i loved the story in general. no unnecessary filler, the relationship development was so goddamn good this is 100% a 10000/10 stArs!1!1!1! side note: roar by tbz

insanely good bl, 10/10 the CONNECTION between them is what i need every relationship to look like fr, the fondness of chaehun and how much he cared and how theyre both so selfless to eachother its so sweet to see, no stupid bs bl drama that there usually is, just a genuinely good plot and a BEAUTIFULLY written dynamic between the two. i gen thought mc was my fav character until we got the background on their story and how they truly knew eachother for so long and to see chaehun pine for chaewool was so sweet i deadass just wanna reread it again already just to see how the beginning of the story seems now that we know how chaehun actually knows mc and the longing that he had for him genuinely SUCH A SWEET story, sorrowful in the perfect ways and the song matched so well too, ICE by cix >>>>>> so peak i recommend all in all 1000000000000/10 stArs!!!111
