kei_k's manga / #Psychological(64)

Ch 19. Wow, it's very interesting in a way that it''s pretty realistic. I like how certain emotions are incorporated to the characters... Honestly, the 'twist' was quite predictable, what with that Gotouda lying about lying. Err, I just had the feeling that Murase was really Gotouda since I saw him (even when he changed that face). I mean, even with the story he came up with, I didn't believe his BS 'coz it's just too coincidental and his previous actions contradicted it. Also, can we talk about how they didn't bring up him being called as "Gotouda-san" in the plastic surgery clinic? Err,, Anyway, this manga just made me broaden my perspective on this subject. I can see how unfair the law really is. I can quite understand how some people no longer believe in it and want to take justice with their own hands. But anyway, it's really interesting. I want to see how the story would develop from here on. Anyway, about Nobara taking Kotori's place, from the beginning, I thought it was a bad idea. If we think about it in the long run, it would've been better for her to admit their lie sooner than living like that and constantly being scared of being exposed.. Especially since she went to court as Kotori when she was Nobara. She'd also be questioned with the DNA test she cheated on. I mean, sure, if she admitted it in the beginning, it's possible that she'd be blamed again, but c'mon, she just heard how her mother didn't deny her anymore. And it was foolish of her to think that she'd rather be the one to die. Anyway, that wouldn't change the fact that one of them died, so why make the pain heavier? She just added more lies. She should've just been honest. So yeah. I'm also interested on how things will go for Yuuwa, too, of course, especially because he lied for Nobara now. Ahhh Nobara, she should've planned it better you know? But I guess in her state of mind, it wasn't possible to think logically anymore. Hrrrr. Anyway, personally, of course I resent that guy. Sure, he couldn't bring back Kotori and all that, and I would've considered forgiving him a little if he really did change but he didn't change at all. Lying and pretending.. I guess it's true that she didn't expect Hime to be Nobara's friend (or he forgot, bec you know, he practically stalked Nobara before so it's possible to have seen her) but it's hard for me not to think that he intentionally let Hime fall to have miscarriage since he didn't really plan to settle with her.

Ch 4. Ahhh this is seriously disturbing and frustrating! I mean, how can those girls bully like that and get away with it? I can only imagine how the bullied feels. No wonder suicide incidents in both middle and high school increase.. Err. It's actually translated until Ch 7 already but I feel so frustrated to continue...

Sidestory to Yatamomo. Suda's POV.

Deep Love Series #2

Deep Love Series # 3

A bit lacking in romance for the main couple.. I mean, he just recently broke up with his gf so they should've had more time to be lovey dovey... Felt bad for the second lead, but since I prefer nice/prince types than reformed playboy types, I kinda wanna tell him "That's what you get for breaking too many hearts." :p

ch 18 // Uhh twins can really be troublesome, especially when they get selfish of the other claiming they know them best since they've been together since they were in the womb. Thus, hating and shooing away everyone who tries to get close to them...

I'm very conflicted about how I feel about this manga because it feels too deep, yet some of the characters reasoning seem illogical to me. I really liked how Youji matured from his bratty self. In the early chapters, I disliked how he was hating on Hirose's complicated feelings, and he ended up being in the same predicament. Since he had this sense of responsibility to rescue Ren, he felt that he needed to do something for him and started acting strange after Hirose let him in on what he's getting himself into. So when he kissed Ren at night while they drank, then kissed Hiromi (his gf) the next day, I was pissed off. When he told Ren he liked him (despite still being confused with his feelings), I thought he'd break it off with his gf right away. I mean, at this point, Ren or the others would advise not to, since Youji's not even sure of his feelings yet. However, it's unfair for Hiromi to have him continue date her while he thought of another person. He was very insensitive about the ring, too. Well, anyway, it's good that he at least had the decency to break up not long after. I was glad that Ren didn't accept him immediately, too. As the manga goes further, we see that Youji learns more about homosexual relationships and he's slowly healing Ren while being mature and keeping his composure; reminding himself that liking Ren is enough, at least for now. Ren really acted like an adult. When he went over to Hirose's house and said that he still loved him, I was disappointed, but I kind of understood. He's never really gotten over him, so it's just that he started to acknowledge his feelings. It was brave of him to stop running away and refuse Hirose despite his lingering affections. What I didn't like was how he reasoned out that he's doing Youji a favor by not crossing the line, and instead goes around sleeping with others. Sure, he's still unsure about his feelings for Youji and he felt pressured that he can't reciprocate the same feelings he expected. However, I simply do not understand how sleeping around, and coming home to Youji, who could possibly smell him and know what he's doing, would help his situation. He's trying to run away from Youji to prevent him from being hurt, but what he's actually doing only hurt Youji more. Ugh. I dunno. Even in the last "rape" scene where he claimed he wasn't abused and he felt pleasure from the body, I just couldn't understand. I thought he'd given up his feelings for Hirose when he started touching Youji... But I guess his feelings just don't vanish that easily. And as he said, his body truly remembered the pleasure they shared all those times they were together. This made me worried though. It's as if he'd give in to Hirose anytime since it's only physical pleasure anyway. In short, it's as if Ren didn't give much importance to the physical aspect of the relationship. I wish he cherished it more. Especially when he finally accepted Youji... How can he simply enjoy it because he pitied Hirose? Why didn't he try to resist simply because he pitied Hirose? How could he even be sure that he'd be released even after doing all that? In a way, he did betray Youji that time. Ahhh, but he was actually honest to Youji about this, but since Youji's the one chasing him, he could only accept it.. In the end, I guess I wished that Ren expressed more of his love for Youji because he seemed too passive. I get that he was hurt and it took him long to get over it, but I thought that when he knew about Youji's trouble, he'd be more active and all. I think he's been too spoiled by Youji... Ugh. Really, I just can't get over the fact that he still willingly went with Hirose's desperation. Well, he said he no longer hold lingering affections now. I just hope that it's true, and that he'd never sleep around again or allow others to kiss him easily. He's too nonchalant about this. He should think about how his partner would feel more. After all, Youji's one of a kind for him, so he shouldn't let him go by being st*pid like that.
