well shit's manga / #EYES:OPEN(184)

Can already see this becoming a quick favourite of mine LMAO the cozy and homey 90s setting adds so much to the atmosphere, it makes their exploration with each other and their sexuality that more sweeter, i love it so much TTTT and i love their dynamic AAAAAA tsun ml falling head first for clueless sunshine eager mc, my absolute bread and butter!!!!! The little details in how jinwoo is starting to let daehan into his circle, him saving a seat for daehan and getting jealous every time daehan mentions getting a gf oh buddy im SO excited to read more, i know this is gonna be good lol

Oh i really fucking love this, such a fresh premise about abo and how it all started. Love the psychological/physical aspect to it too and how much it’d influence one’s feelings vs instincts and how off putting it’d be!! Cant wait to see how the story and characters develop!! I wonder how far the author will expand the world building in here :0 Have high hopes with this one, i hope a proper tl team picks it up TT-TT

A serious case of a childhood friends to situationship to lovers good lord LMAO i love it im so seated for the drama

Very fresh and interesting first love reunited slash undercover cop premise!! Mc and ml’s highschool experience was so heart breaking for the both of them, they love each other so much its just the circumstances that suck :( hope the resolution for the drama is satisfying!

Love the overarching theme of fate and sacrifices in this story, its presented so tastefully especially with how the characters developed. God i’d die for mag, shes not some super op mc, shes so realistically flawed and her life as margaret is so especially bleak with how she got framed and killed as a scapegoat for “the greater good”. Especially with how grim the author presented the conflict on war and how it doesnt have a simple, naive solution. Like there are fucking stakes here and i appreciate the author for considering that!!! It sets the perfect tone for the angst and how inevitably fucked everything is in mag’s first life. Still aching at That panel where margaret hugged mag in comfort before she lied about her being a witch. It is one of the most heart breaking and beautiful scenes in rofan for me and perfectly captures the agony in her conflicting identity and decision. Shes really, really trying her best and like the theme (1 or All sacrifice) entailed; she’d rather sacrifice herself than allow another futile war. Margaret Must continue be wrongfully condemned in order to maintain the peace for others and its so fucking heartbreaking and bleak. Theres just so many instances in the story where one decision fucks up the fate of others all for the greater good and its presented in a way that u cant even hate the characters for doing so bc u can emphatise with it, even Squal’s mistake was heart breaking bc you can see how powerless and manipulated he was, the same with Jack’s fear and guilt in the ‘fire’ and poison. The characters’ decisions are so deeply entwined with the other that every reveal had me feeling devastated lmao. I love how the author tackled mag’s reaction in each reveal, its so deeply raw. Shes going through the fucking wringer Both of the men she loved had a hand in killing her but in totally different ways. And the way its resolved is so good as well, because all she wanted from Squal was an apology, and maybe Just maybe of him reaching towards her during the fall. Atleast Jack admitted to his wrongs, communicated and gave her a long needed apology, prioritised her safety during the kidnapping and in return mag chose their fate by jumping to save him. Its such a nice way to rewrite her traumatic experience with Squal all while developing her character at the same time. Love how that scene emphasised in choosing the decision she believed was best, no matter if it all turned to foam or not. The little mermaid parallels made it even better aaa Its so bittersweet and triumphant all at the same time :’) Margaret, jack and squal had shitty circumstances stacked up against them and the only one truly at fault is the southern leader. I love how realistic and multifaceted ALL the characters are, its so rich and full of depth, its so so refreshing to see flawed characters reframe their perspective and try their best to change things for the better. I unironically love squal’s character the most, hes just the most pitiful guy who kept on making the wrong choices that he thought was right. Just incredibly naive and misguided, and i love the way hes redeemed by finally taking reigns in stopping the war. Mag’s character development was so satisfying to see and jack’s guilt being revealed was done so well. In a way, its a story on their path to their own self-redemption as well (mag acknowledging the weight of the war, squal standing up against his father, jack trying to clear margaret’s name due to his ‘actions’) The parallels!!! God, I adoreeee the story telling, theme and writing this story has. The panels and story boarding were planned to perfection, especially the constant moon, stars and fate imagery. The stars falling in each decision mag chooses is so beautifully scenic and poetic. I love how the author had a plan ready in mind for this story and didnt choose to overstay its welcome by inserting unnecessary fodder plot. The theme is simple, direct and to the point all while tugging the heart strings successfully. The Artstyle and expressions are beyond gorgeous and the pacing was great, the plot is fresh and fun as well. Such a good rofan story seriously!!!!!!!!!!

Oh im obsessed i love this so much everything from the art to the plot is jsut A1, its soooo fucking good!!!!!!!!!!! I have nothing to say other than this being one of my favourite korean shounen manhwas this year. Love how fresh and fun the entire killer concept + biblical motifs, very well expanded world building. I adore mc i love him so much he serves such a fierce mug in every chapter i just love him ? Cuntiest twunk ive ever seen… and the amount of gratuitous ass shots we have in this is amazing the artist is rlly doing it for the girlies and they have my thanks forever. The homoerotic tension and dialogue in certain scenes is great as well, bc truly what else is more queer than intense biblical motifs, with peter being this source of undying light of hope and fawned (desire to be killed, but hey still lol) by everyone !!!!!! Still reeling at the kowloon arc bc of how well written that arc is, the imagery and art and story boarding is amazing, i shed solid tears in that arc my gawd……. I rllt cant wait to see how this unfolds the further we get, its been so fun!!!!!!!! The found family of it all is so sweet too aughhhhhhhh i love it i love all the characters truly, i hope it ends with peter achieving his dream to take a photo with his friends (then and now) pls… give my old man a break. What a story seriously Author and artist are truly the dream team for this project i feel so blessed to get to read this AHHH need my fujo sisters and brethrens to hop on this and give it the love it deserves bc god i need those peter/everyone fics to flood ao3 NEOW!!!!!! Ch 54 (character info and sheets) Ch 69 (left off + want official tl)

Hes so sweet and earnest and just trying his darnest best my adorable airhead baby…… i love airhead mcs so much theyre so near and dear to me… took me a good 2 hrs reading this bc of how i had to stop and clench my fist in every panel taishin is in hes just so fucking cute

Dead dove pseudo incest toxic yaoi fuckery here i come !!!!!!!!!!! Hanbit a freak yandere through and through, he just hasnt realised it LMAO

Has the perfect nostalgia of old school yaoi with a modern twist to it; a very endearing and earnest amount of communication that left me pleasantly surprised! I love age gap relationships where the younger one is more emotionally apt than the older one LOL. Aoi setting things straight by explaining his background and why it’ll take him longer to understand certain things and asking takane go be patient with him…… oh tears….. and double it with takane apologising aoi for being the reason why he felt embarassed in the first place after that document/office ordeal…. Its so refreshing and touching i actually shed a few tears ;-; I just adore that scene so much, takane insisting aoi to not apologise bc it isnt his fault…. Its so rare to see such a genuine apology in bl ??????? Immediately left a mark on me bc despite the cliche fake dating for money premise, the sensitivity and writing of the characters made them feel so down to earth and real that i genuinely felt bad for aoi and touched that takane is taking steps in being more emotionally open and sensitive in his interactions with aoi… just… TTTT its so good…. author rlly took all the things that we love in old school bl and rehash it with modern standards making it soo fresh and entirely its own, the art style especially! I was rlly skeptic of it at first but god im so happy to be wrong! The commentary on class differences between aoi and takane was well done as well. Both of them having gone through their own difficulties and acknowledging both parties’ efforts in helping the other AHHHH i love it!!!!!!! I especially love aoi’s slow budding feelings + professionalism in his role. All the communication… its just such a joy to read omg…. Author i will lay my life out for u im so fucking serious. I rlly rlly hope we get an anime adaptation or jbl from this, the potential is there!! Its so refreshing!!!! Its so fun!!! While still maintaining the old school bl essence that we all love and adore!!!! Please future adaptations and physical eng copies soon !!!!!!!

OHHHHHH immediately a certified banger gusao-nim i trust u with my life
