otakulys's manga / #execution(7)

Rikara

Complete | mizukami shin | 2000 released

The third one was sad but interesting. These stories were all a bit rushed, and some of them were pretty strange, but they were entertaining. This author really has a thing for rimming, haha. Three and a half stars.

Shirayukihime (ito Junji)

Complete | ito junji | 2014 released

Wow, that mirror sure likes to stir shit up. I've always hated how we cling to that "fairest of them all" crap with this story, though. Growing up, most of us think "fair" means "beautiful" because of how it's used. Of course, there are plenty of cultures that still think pale skin is the most beautiful. It'd be really cool if we could start weeding that BS out of society. Maybe start with kid stories? Not that this particular take on it is for children, lol.

The Holy Grail of Eris

Ongoing | Kujira tokiwa,Momoyama hinase | 2019 released

Huh. I think I misinterpreted some comments, because the description pretty much sums it up. Criminal, execution... I mean, I guess we'll see what happens? I'm not really one for this kind of story, but I'll stick around and see.

Falling (Yun) Webtoon

Ongoing | Yun | 2019 released

I'm really intrigued so far. It has that dark grit that I love in BL, and crime families, etc. are my guilty pleasure. It isn't perfect, and I could see it getting annoying in a way, but I have high hopes, so five stars for now.

Musebinake, Junjou

Complete | Matsumoto yoh | 2019 released

Awww, I really loved that! Even though it didn't explain some things, which was a little annoying, and I really, really wish there were more. It's the sort of thing I want a million volumes of, just them on missions and traveling, more focus on the second couple, etc. There are still multiple things that make no sense, but whatever. The main story does, so hey. Very sweet couple, and they're so pretty! I wanna read more stories like this. D: EDIT: Oh! There are two oneshots in the same universe. I hope to see more in the future. Now to read those extras.

Litchi Hikari Club

Complete | furuya usamaru | 2006 released

What the fuck... That was so freaking weird and random, but mostly it was just too quick and abrupt to leave any impact. All of the characters were evil, stupid, or both. What was with the chick, though? Was she supposed to be mentally challenged? That's the only thing I can assume based on the things she said and choices she made, but I can't tell if it was intentional or not. Anyway, a gross and lame story about megalomania and psychosis. I get what it was going for in a way, but it was just generally so bad and rushed with nothing but misery, and the only one left is a total moron. I'm glad all of the boys died, though, since they were all killers and/or rapists. Touching a passed out girl's boob is apparently all some people need to feel life is fulfilling.
