otakulys's manga / #stalker(17)

Rakka

Complete | Akabeko | 2000 released

This mangaka really has a thing for stuck up ukes being jerks then paying the price for it. But this is interesting regardless. I have mixed feelings, but I'm intrigued. I don't know if this story is gonna continue, or if this is a collection of different stories, but I'd like to see where he can go from here. ETA: So I just finished chapter five, and this gets weirder and weirder. I don't get why everyone seems to love the second couple. The whole thing is just weird and creepy. The enema, and how he's like, "You look pregnant. Let's deliver the baby!" Like wtf, I laughed but I was disturbed. And then he turned him gay by screwing him? You can't turn people gay. This isn't like being a vampire, except instead of biting to turn someone, you stick your dick in their ass. I did, however, like the third couple, despite some of its own creepy parallels. I love that age difference. And it's nice to see two lonely people comfort one another. I could have done without the weird moment where he tells the guy he sees him like his father, to which the man responds by jumping his bones. But other than that, it's cute and sweet. So far I still like her omegaverse story more, though I'm so worried about how that ones gonna end up. Plus it takes forever to update. So here I am.

Paraphrase

Golly, mister! You didn't have to have a bunch of guys gang rape me to show you liked me! Next time, just ask me out! Tee hee!

Yasaotoko to Sadistic

Complete | Hideyoshico | 2010 released

This was very sweet. Not perfect, but I liked the concept of a bully going after the guy he bullied. I'd like to see more stuff like that. The uptight uke kind of took away some of the fun for me, since I'm not really into the rigid, has-to-be-provoked-over-and-over type. I think he was right to not forgive his bully and start dating him immediately, but he was pretty uptight in his life in general. At any rate, I would have liked to have seen more of them when they were younger, but it was an interesting story. The stalking stuff was a bit more intriguing, too. That's okay, though. I'm glad they got their happy ending.

Haru ga kita

Complete | Mochino Kome | 2017 released

Aw, what a very sweet, sad little story. I wish a lot of elements had been longer and more fleshed out. The stalker part was way too rushed. The reveal had me excited, but then it was just over. I think the story would have benefited having a few volumes to really explore the struggle between the identity of Haru/Sakura, etc. But still, sweet story, and I love me some hurt/comfort, so five stars.

Anglerfish

Ongoing | evy | 2019 released

I really like this so far! I wish there were more than two (technically 3) chapters. I can't wait for an update. Also, they cut the pages really well. It sucks so much when the dialogue and images are all slice up in strange ways. Really looking forward to future chapters!

Mr.Miss

Ongoing | aseom | 2000 released

I really like it so far. I love the angst over being outed in high school trope honestly, and I love second love even more. I hope we get to see more of the past soon. It's painful to see, but it's hurt/comfort, which I adore. This new guy will kiss your bruises and make them all better! EDIT: UGH. It's coming out really fast, but it's only eleven chapters, and I need more. I want it all! I'd probably read it in one sitting if it were all out, though, so maybe this is for the best. Still, I can't wait to see more of the past stuff unfold. Plus, omgz, real communication??? How rare!

Human Chair

This is one of the better Junji Itou stories I've read. It's still fairly clunky, and the final shot was kind of weird, but the idea is indeed disturbing.
