moody_bish's manga / #BL(105)

These beautiful people! The premise is clean and the last chapters patched up some gaps and explained why the two had a strained relationship. The ex wife is a big "HUH" and contradicts herself so bitterly ironically. MAMA just looks hot, both in feminine and masculine form. Also, it’s funny how a tattoo at the ankle gets so much attention but I guess a culture to its own.

Eince ive cooled down too much from waiting for updates, I reread it. First, the whole premise/idea/plot is interesting and a true slice of life. Second, we get an entitled antagonistic bitch who caused Yohan's impaired hearing. A friend who is ready to build a cemetery of buried assholes for Yohan. We get an understanding yet relateably impulsive Soohwa and his awakened sensitivity of hearing. The side characters are solid and although the whole family of Gyoon is a big headache, I'm glad everything was smoothened well enough (I'm just pissed that Byung is still out there unscathed). At times I just forget that Yohan is deaf but when this is manifested, his character is further solidified. He is capable and it's rude to pity him because he surmounted that injury he was dealt with. P. S. Jihae (?) looks like the guy in "The Warehouse". Tan, golden eyes, and ridiculously creepy gaze. Cause like, he just stares at your soul with his generic smile.

Just 2 boys working out their relationship

[Dropped] Aresh is the only reason I can tolerate the MC's worsening self-satisfying workaholic trait. I'm bitter about it coz there's more sympathy for workaholic people who doesnt give a sht if their self-paced and work-hoarding trait ruins the whole system (an actual extreme and not like the workaholic who does it within reason and in consideration of a system rather than their own.) Besides, it's worse that he is actually very much aware of how he treats Aresh. Let's say Aresh also satisfies himself in breaking into the MC's little world, and sure, there's a satisfaction to that...but only that. I tend to roll my eyes at the MC esp when I knew he wouldnt even face Aresh until Aresh had to bulldozer through his faux ignorance

really said ADULT RELATIONSHIP. I'm very much in love with Keito's straightlaced personality. The closure doesn't feel half-assed because they didn't act like hormonal teenagers who wanted some angst. They confronted the problem, both between the couple and with the unrequited lover. There is growth and every character was involved in the story.

I dislike the gaslighting and victim blaming in the beginning, but the way it's addressed and how they communicated and how their relationship kept growing... BEAUTIFUL. The last monologue summarized the story and my feelings PERFECTLY. ML1: Bisexual, Easy-going, Forward, Learns from his mistake ML2: Serious, Timid but also blunt, (he took my heart, and I'm fine not having it back) SM (special mention) : consent W(warning): 1. Dubcon is from ML2 freezing from fright, dazed from drunkennes 2. Gaslighting ML2 for "overreacting" 3. Victim Blaming ML2 when he couldn't reject "properly"

01: detectives - ex partners who cohabitted after their last case damaged the sight of one of them 02: aspiring police - an aspiring police and a thug taking their tests together at the academg 03: small world - detective has a hobby of catching and releasing when fishing just like in his relationships, but he meets the guy he couldn't release despite knowing how seemingly ill-fated they are

The play of age roles is funny. A supposedly responsible adult who tries to make things work. And a youthful man who's pretty much all over the place until he gets a go signal. Plus, the way they just naturally clung to each other when theyve affirmed their feelings is so satisfying. Like yezzzz grow old together omg

the confrontation scenes are the episodes that cut me so deeply to the point of just sobbing and reflecting on who i am, what i deal with, and my flaws. And i really hated Yujin, only to realize that i saw myself in her—coz I also went thru those phases of trying to belong or seek attention by being a hero or the cool troublemaker when being a golden child didn't work. So excited for her lmao, spoilers but like the growth in her makes it more satisfying to read because the only bastard here is the stalker whom I don't even wanna learn more about. but really, the characters and their struggles are so relatable. and the way they cope, especially like Daun's cousin and Yujin who are pretty much "cancelled" if ever show that they will have to live with their mistakes and confront those theyve hurt while also just moving forward to be better people.
