summer season
Can Love Management Tame Him?! 〘Official〙
DNF @ch3 pg8. 2.5 stars. Not an atrocious story, but I wasn’t compelled to continue either.
Romance, But Not Romantic
DNF @ch15. Pg1. I didn’t hate this story. Just dragging on with annoyingly wishy washy, hot/cold uke that makes story less enjoyable since the seme is so chill and reasonable but borderline boring. Maybe I pick it up again one day
The Boundary of Fragrance
Tagged a slow burn for how long it’s taking for the characters and romantic relationship to develop. The longer it gets, the less interested I’m becoming. Update & DNF @ch17: giving 2.5 stars as I stopped vibing with this story like 2 chapters ago. Not the lovey doves story I was hoping for.
Love Rides on Pheromone Allergy
2.85 stars. This is interesting enough to skim through story and see how it unfolds, but I’m not a huge fan of indecisive, cowardly MMC’s who aren’t strong enough to go for what they want or at least try. Hoping to see growth and progression in him but also hoping it doesn’t take skimming through another 20 chapters to get there. Update: DNF @ch24 - cbf
Instant Family
DNF @ch13 pg1. Didn’t hate it, but didn’t like it enough to continue. I’m sure I stopped too early for the romance and backstories to uncover, but the premise and situation just wasn’t working for me.
Kimi to Nara Koi wo Shite Mite mo
DNF @ch9, pg15. Slow paced, bl that should be super cute and sweet for younger readers. Can’t find anything wrong with it for a slow burn shounen ai. It’s just that I need more and I got bored and once I started skimming, I knew it was the end for me. No smut from where I read up to
The Snake Demon Wants to Flee
This story is all over the shop. Don’t know if I like it or not. Got me curious enough to continue but also losing me with the Chinese fantasy dialogue that’s hard to follow, coupled with the frustration of whether to tag this as sexy shounen ai or will they/wont they smut. No smut yet, but had scene at beginning where it kinda looked like they were, but in a dream…. I don’t bloody know. Update: DNF @ch16 in between latest uploads I forgot about whole storyline, then upon trying to catch up, I realised I don’t want to remember anything or care to know more.
