『Fangtasia』's manga / #BL(664)

MANIPULATIVE PAIR + TOXIC PPL The order of which chapters to read first is messed up and we don't know what is what anymore cause we got the scanlation groups working on it, official all ages releases, official mature releases, and fansubs with redrawing releases. (><) Same author as 'Stalker's Game'. the mc has inferiority complex bc hes always been 2nd place no matter what he do so when the time comes for him to see the great eunsung fall, he took it. both charas here r trying to get a rise from the other, as if theyre playing chess hence "checkmate" title. Also the old dude (the painter) abuses the apprentices who help at the atelier. The story has depth rather than focusing too much on s*x scenes. The art is good. Both MLs are smart, a bit psycho I think (? And I like it).

This is chapter 12 of ''Immoral Sex.''

Every chapter made me smile uncontrollably. It’s very funny. The plot is nice and decent for 17 chapters but I wanted to see more character development. One more explicit make out scene for them - at least their first time would have been nice, cause it suddenly came to 3 months of them trying out in order to date, though the scene was funny when he realized its been 3 months. The ending also feels incomplete and the uncle showed up in like what (?) one chapter?

About the title... apparently “salad days” is slang for someone’s “golden years” or something. https://dto.to/series/76420 https://mangatoto.com/series/93929 https://tapas.io/series/pirouette-into-my-heart/info •((✿✿))• Beautiful love story of an innocent ballet boy, Jiang Shen & a determined boxing boy, Bai Jinyi, who’re so different but astonishingly get along well. Telling how they’ve grown up together & supported each other to pursue their dreams.. ≫➤ I love the way parents of Jiang Shen support him though he likes something different from general boys; they didn’t spoil him, just told him the price he had to pay to get what he wanted then let him decide & take his own responsibility. That’s super rare & generous parents. //★// RAW - https://www.kuaikanmanhua.com/web/topic/5085/
