eishin's manga / #yaoi(130)

It's so cute!!! I'm a sucker for stories with fluffy relationships like this. It makes me so happy that there are more volumes for this one ><

It's good and has a different charm compared to the wolf×rabbit story. My favorite parts were seeing Shishidou's lion cub form (all their interactions while they were younger as besties were just so cute ><) and the aftercare he did for Shiba when he passed out in the middle of sex. It's even implied that he does that routine everytime they finish and I just find it so sweet that he likes taking care of Shiba like that even though he says he isn't a good guy like Shirou (wolf from the other story). It was also shocking to see the real meaning behind Shiba saying "disgusting" when they had their falling out as friends. I'm usually not a fan of the fwb setup but in the end they did have real feelings for each other, a series of misunderstandings just prevented them from facing that fact sooner :')

This just reads similarly to OG yaoi manga plots. I was wondering why a lot of people were trashing on it in the comments but this seems a bit more normal than expected? The plot is bad, but it's not that crazy. I'm rating it low though because nothing really happened and it feels unfinished. There are so many loose ends to the story and right now there's really no romance and just a certain level of understanding between the two of them. Overall, I feel like I wasted my time on this but it's not to the extent some comments are making this out to be.

There was a bit of plot at the start but it quickly escalated to nothing more than just a smutfest :') Their relationship is cute and non-toxic though at the very least.

From the same person who made Mother's Spirit. Honestly, maybe I expected too much from this. The couple I liked the most was the switch couple and the office worker with the deli dude. The last story was... something. I didn't really like it but hey at least both of them are equally f'd up for each other. This is most likely just a smut manga with some plot sprinkled into it as decoration.

This had so much potential, the world building between the dynamics of humans and vampires coexisting is such an interesting premise. Unfortunately, it's very rushed and we even had this cliché kidnapping plot as a conflict that felt so forced just for the sake of showing an antagonistic character. Jinu and Siyun are so cute together but we couldn't even take the time to see them build their relationship properly. There was this sudden reveal at the end too where the doctor and the POS has this toxic relationship situation and it ends with a very cryptic note wherein it insinuates that the doctor won't leave the relationship even after he said that grand speech about the difference between experiencing warmth (comforting/safe) and hot (hurts/burns). This could've easily been at least a 50-chapter series or maybe even more, alas it ended like that. The fact that Siyun's blood was special is never properly addressed too. All we know is that vampires want him but there wasn't any deeper explanation as to why and what makes him different. Wish we could've seen more from this world, but with how things went I'd say this was quite mid as far as storytelling goes.

Kinda silly-goofy plot. The usual childhood friends where one is in love and the other is in denial. It was pretty cool that at least the uke seemed to have a proper reason as to why he didn't want to entertain the idea of having a relationship with the seme. Other than freaking out from their height difference (understandable), it's insinuated that he was concerned of how a relationship between the two of them could possibly impact the seme's career as a professional athlete. The body proportions for the leads are wack, both when the uke was tall and when he got back to his original height. It was a pretty fun short read though.

I left this to marinate and now I come back after a little over a year of waiting to find that this masterpiece got CANCELLED?! I'm actually so sad. Guess I'll just go read the novel now because I really want to see how the relationship between our leads progress :')

I was so excited for this but then I read the spoilers about Dohyun and now I feel a bit betrayed QwQ I'll let this marinate because I can't deal with slowburn that turns to angst like this at the moment when I expected a fluff story. See you in a year or two. Hopefully you redeem yourself Dohyun, I'm so disappointed in you fr
