Rift (Conro)
It's a mix of happy and sad moments. But I feel too deeply whenever Natsuki feels dread thinking about death and being left behind. It was gut wenching when you put yourself in his shoes because he always thought he could've prevented what happened to his dad. Fast forward to Natsuki and Yuni's hot relationship, I like to think it will last considering how in love they are with each other. And no other person could calm Natsuki's worries but Yuni.
Batsu Game (Conro)
Everything this author makes is top notch! This in particular is so good. The art, the story, the smexy scenes. I love everything. Also, I've never seen fuller lips drawn before but this looks wonderful.
Bright Light Sprout
It was very sad yet somehow the ending gave me so much hope. The author mentioned that Ren-kun didn't see himself in an unfortunate situation because "happiness can be found within ourselves." I want to cling this belief since Ren-kun is a proof that you can be happy when you chose to be, and with the person you want to be with. Even though the ending was pretty open-ended, I know they met again and that they will live happily ever after. Cliche? A fairy tale? I just want to think that both of them deserve to be with each other, they're their pillar of strength (in a sense), and they bring out the best out of one another. While you read through their internal monologue you just can't help but get your heart twisted in pain because sometimes you imagine people do difficult things just to be able to live huh? I am so glad they met at that time, that they were neighbors and they cherish each other. If they were real people I just want what's best for them and to live happily together. It gives love hope. <3 What a really beautiful story.
Gelateria Supernova
Seme? More like Baby! Seriously, they're both precious babies! They are too cute and too adorable together. And talk about that relationship, it's the most beautiful ever and a healthy one. I can't stop gushing how wonderful this story is, and their love for gelato was fun too.
Kyuuso Ha Cheese no Yume Omiru
In the end he realized the difference between dating a man and a woman, and how dating a man has more advantage ( I can totally agree to his thoughts).
Sojou No Koi Wa Nido Haneru
Am I the only one having a hard time wrapping their head on this on and off relationship. I get that this story tells a very realistic scenario of love among homosexuals and heterosexuals, but the drama was just too confusing for my pea sized brain to comprehend. I could probably say they have a very toxic relationship that should've just decided to move on rather than being together. Imagase is such a manipulative and push over man and inflects his deep love to a confused straight man who has a hard time catching up on how to be in a homo relationship. I thought the end of the first story was pretty good. It ended just how a typical yaoi could, and then this happened and I don't really know how to digest their relationship. It's probably a little to mature for me.
Never Understand
The title really says it all, I could never fully understand these characters. Although it started pretty strongly and ended well that it got me hooked, the build up had too much drama and a lot of misundertadings (you could literally read them yelling "It's a misunderstanding" every time something's wrong *sigh) that I feel like it was just thrown there to give depths. I think the author wants to portray different kinds of love story with these different couples but some are just too much or doesn't really make sense to me. I liked the main couple because in the beginning they really had potential with their different outlooks and all that they had overcome so many obstacles together on how personality tops physical appearances, albeit the story took a weird turn, but it made me happy in the end. Then there's the second couple, the childhood friends which I personally liked more, was a cliche storyline and was quite short to my liking but their relationship was so cute and so sweet that I really, really, really wanted more from them. Then the toxic relationships I find of the ex-president x friend, which was a huge question mark because what was really the context and the ending? I need to see more progress. And lastly, my least favorite storyline was the popular guy x fat guy. I hate how shallow they were as characters. Obviously they are more attracted to physical appearances than what they really felt. Even the archer dude thinks it's better not to tell the blonde dude that he was the fat guy in middle school because he doesn't want to be hated and gets left behind. That was pretty frustrating but whatever. Then there's all these meaningless characters who are just as obsessed with looks and popularity that I can't even be bothered to think about. In the end I just wanted to be Joohee, the awesome, unproblematic and strong president who could really see through your bullshit and has a firm principle on her own. She is the only sensible girl in the entire story and she was so amazing. Her character was very well written that I was so happy she wasn't involved with anyone who could dim her light. Initial thought while reading: The slow burn is killing me!
Incorrigible
Ayeon's character took a really big turn for the better! I was really interested in him in the original story but he wasn't given proper closure and how his story ends. I am so glad the author decided to show us more of his raw, vulnerable, sweet side, and future him works in a flower shop with long hair and is so handsome! I always knew he wasn't a bad guy and that he was just easily influenced by his ex-gf, and now he finally manages to stand up for himself and realized his self worth. Didn't expect to make me this more emotional than the first one and it was really good. And finally that smut! So beautiful and intimate and he's such a soft boy I really like him. I'm also surprised we get a cameo of our OG characters and they are doing great too.
