cmdrbanger's manga / #childhood friends(66)

It's not especially different from other similar stories except in length. It takes its time to tell the whole story slowly, and that DOES make a difference. It gets me in the feels when Oosawa hugs Chizu goodbye. This was a reread, probably my second time.

So confusing! The panels are hard to follow, and lots of same face makes it hard to tell the characters apart.

Interesting, a college/high school romance that actually makes sense. Chdhood friends with a small age gap that won't matter the older they get.

Cute with a supernatural twist. A little vague, but very wholesome!

Meh, comedic 'what even are feelings and dating' BL between childhood friends, plus 'surprise, we're both otaku' subplot.

Ehhhh this was just okay. The art makes it hard to tell them apart at first, and Izumi's constant worrying got annoying. I feel like Shinoya could've reassured him more intensely or something, in response to how much Izumi's worries. The stoey just feels unbalanced somehow. It's realistic in that Shinoya was waiting for Izumi to change and notice they felt the same about each other, but then it just wallows in Izumi's uncertainties too much for my taste.

Interesting story, loose, sorts janky art. Not bad!

A rare ojisan BL! Nice story about unrequited love finally being requited. Wholesome and grounded.

4* because there's a third act twist reveal that their new homeroom teacher is an ACTUAL PEDO PSYCHO, and it's completely glossed over. They bust up his face, but don't call the cops?! Aside from that, it's a cute childhood friends developing their relationship. Especially like that they come out (sort of lol) at school, and no one cares, because they've already been obvious about it for several chapters.

Cute but lacking somehow. Delinquent uke gap moe. Probably lacking in the side characters and subplots.
