kei_k's manga / #Straight Seme(108)

Ch12... Ughhh it's heartbreaking... I just hope Naoto doesn't sleep with Kei while Taichi's like this.. // update: 10.26.16 Initially, I guess I was just rooting for Taichi to settle his issues, because they're mutually in love and natually, I wanted them together. However, I guess I haven't really considered Naoto's feelings before. I see it now (thanks to Colleen Hoover's It Ends with Us novel) how Naoto endured so much for Taichi and for the sake of saving their relationship. When he decided to give dating another try despite knowing they didn't do well in it in the past, he sincerely wanted to give it his all. He was insecure with being in the same sex relationship, meaning he'd have to give up hopes of providing Taichi a proper family in terms of marriage and children. He was hurting more, because he's the one who "receives." If Taichi were to choose a woman later, it'd be more painful because he'd feel less worthy because of their difference. I was especially disappointed, when they were talking about Taichi asking for time to think things carefully again, ALONE, because apparently, he didn't consider things even when he already proposed moving in together and being okay with anything as long as Nao's with him. Just imagine how much that hurts Naoto. But he was brave enough to ask him to talk about things together, since it's their relationship on the line. I can kind of understand why Taichi thought he should think about it alone first because perhaps he started questioning his own conviction. But honestly, I'm more on Nao's side. I liked how he really made an effort to make time for Taichi and wait for him so they could talk about it more thoroughly, but all Taichi's done was avoid him. Running away delays the inevitable, and a lot of times, make it worse. Now that Nisshi's taken action and confronted Taichi, he suddenly realized how he wasn't thinking about Naoto at all when he waivered? I'm pretty much upset with Taichi because of his past behavior, which Naoto accepted despite being hurt. They're not exactly broken up, but more of in a cool off relationship. Even if it's like that, though, I'd still not want Naoto to be kissed by another guy. He's in a very confused and unstable position at the moment, so I don't really want to ruin them more with this. If he were to at least consider someone else, it should be when he properly settled things with Taichi. I don't want to taint him as a cheater (though he doesn't have any intention). I wish Nisshi won't kiss Naoto at that moment though, because even if Nao didn't cheat, he'd surely feel guilty and it'd bother him from time to time. Nisshi may even be hated. So I say, Nisshi should really just stay put. Just show support and not expect anything yet. I don't exactly hate Nisshi, because he couldn't help that he fell for Nao, but I don't want him to be a bad guy just so Nao and Taichi could be happy. I want him to be happy too, especially after being betrayed by a past lover like that.

Adding it to my favorites because I couldn't stop smiling while reading. This is one of those light and fluffy manga that make you feel good and reminisce the feelings of having an innocent crush at school. I wanted more though, like exploring Sasano's "otomen" hobbies and of course, deeper development in their relationship. I really loved the pacing and transition of their relationship. Sasano may have been attracted at first sight, but he didn't confess right away and got to know Koga better before actually acting upon his feelings. I just love them so much. At this point, their roles aren't so apparent, but I think Sasano's the uke and Koga's the seme. Either way, I love them. Oh, about the art, I got confused a few times because of the inconsistency of their heights. Other than that, I don't have much complaints. :3

Ch4.5

Just... I wish Taki wasn't used like that...

Regardless of gender, cheating is still cheating. I disliked the seme and uke for this, but I'm glad Yukari didn't cling to the uke . Most of the points of this manga is for Yukari.

1st couple: Robo-kun (Ikeda) x Sex Service Addict (Azuma) - Interesting, but I wanted more.. I wanted to confirm if Azuma really stopped going after he finally confessed. 2nd couple: Kuu x Subaru ~ Well, it had lots of funny scenes, but I think it doesn't match the first story.. I mean, the vibe is different. It's kinda weird, really. :3 3rd Couple: Miura x Matsumae (http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/the_last_lover/) ~ Hmm, love how the uke who was virgin became lewd but didn't let the seme push him around. He actually made him addicted to him even though he planned to let go. Overall, they were nice,but no doki doki feels at all. ps. I really liked Robo-kun's character though.
