moody_bish's manga / #age gap(47)

I was troubled by Kotaro's actions when Ayumi had to leave and Kotaro had to take care of Kyoujo. i mean, he is very much in love with ayumi so he didnt have to overthink about Kyoujo. sure, he can be troubled about doing something behind ayumi's back but the moment he cared too much about Kyoujo made his character dubious. im just glad that he became absolute about his response when e he refused Kyoujo. Also, Akari was a pain in the ass but him being underhanded makes sense. also, the chief is pitiful here because he got roped in but didnt even get to have a partner in the story HAHAHA ps. i sense a good story for Kyoujo and Akari. i just wonder if Akari can remain "pure and innocent" even after knowing a man cause Akari has been a bitch before meeting Kyoujo.

It still bugs me how Manubu got framed into being a rapist. like, that's a huge stain you can't run from. also, these lonely souls were drawn to each other and i love their love affair. Besides, since it ended with Dai looking for a job then it means theyve really moved in with each other and has lived a life of a couple. its just funny thinking how Manubu must have been thinking about 'old man stink' HAHAHA

I... I'm not so sure about this HAHAHA i must be too immature and inexperienced to say something about it. But, mental wise, yeah, these two have a huge age gap so they have polar thinking. If they weren't attracted to each other, i doubt they'd like each other even after 4 years. I mean, you'd grow up and see things different and somehow even be ashamed of your youthful foolishness. But thinking about that, maybe i'd also understand Sihoon's insecurity. Even if that wasnt manifesting at the end chapter. Glad Mari and Junyoung became friends in the end hahaha I made a topic about my own thoughts about the ending tho.

The pacing is commendable . It is also wholesome and gives you that relatable feeling because the characters are defined by what they do, think, and say instead of being narrated as someone and expecting them to be like that.

This is better written than the first. It gives you time to get used to their relationship before they become a couple. Izumi is straightforward and it’s evident that he treasures Kashi. Even when he despised Misa, he also acknowledged that she liked Kashi. Misa’s case is somewhat like a manifestation of insecurity and not being able to commit. She’s the sort to shrink away from selfless and unconditional kindness. It’s good that they broke up before Kashi proposed and all because Kashi deserved Izumi’s love, the sort to love him as he is. Izumi is pretty intense, tho.

Darn it! This universe of Minore no Te (and the three more stories line up to it) really highlights that masculine aura. I mean, having read most of Beriko-sensei’s works, their good with highlighting that masculinity. The balanced assertiveness and dominance. That atmosphere of reliability and solid foundation. Even the natural weaknesses that would seem non-masculine or wimpy is emphasize to bring out the most of their character development. Gahhh so much love for this, too!

A sadist and an airhead that actually meet halfway?? A healthy and positive relationship where the couple pull each other for the better?? A beautifully drawn story where the seme isn’t just a whimsical egoist who leads the uke around but actually wholeheartedly loves his partner?? An uke who intentionally makes the seme happy?? This is it. The ideal relationship where both partners give as much as they receive instead of hurting their partner when they’re insecure.

The seme looks like he’s about to give out.

High school fluff! This gears towards a more ‘positive’ high school experience because it features generally friendly characters. It matches with the colorful and cute art. Even backgrounds and side characters were drawn properly instead of being fade out or blacked out. Although, the pacing are often sudden or slow. As much as Seyeon and Kang Chan are cute, Minkyu and Changmin felt more interesting. The mood in Nayeun also changed without being fleshed out. For someone who continually seemed to like Seyeon, Jinwoo’s presence caused an implied changed which felt like it glossed over Nayeun’s emotional change. It’s nice to see side characters being highlighted as they mingle around the leads. I also had to take a double take sometimes because they’re starting to look alike unless there’s a distinct feature to separate them.
