cmdrbanger's manga / #drama(63)

Only the first few chapters were uploaded with redraws, the rest is lightsabers. That said I like the story so I'm still reading it! (Ch 23 is uncensored) Caught up to 27, really glad I came back and read the chapters I skipped! Basically every chapter is smutty, but the romance in between is really sweet. In the 30s we have a trouble-making (twin?) brother, and miscommunication issues because Seo won't use his words. Pleeease don't let this last too long... It did not, thankfully! Ch 36 - we're kind of in slice of life territory at this point, but I don't mind. 38 - nvm we got a new character tryina start shit 39 - crazy stalker is what. Ugh, at least Seo and Natori are solid, but this is a damper on their life for sure.

Technically omegaverse in most respects, plus other supernatural like sirens and vamps. Lots of interesting worldbuilding! Lots of gender and sexual fluidity!

Natsuro's story after Wander Border! Poor guy got landed right in the middle of some serious drama with Tsuyuhiko but they get a happy ending.

It's Yukue Moegi, it's gold. Even making the scar a symbol of their mutual feelings in the end?! what service that was.

While I don't love the typical "omegas get assaulted" trope present here, the unbelievably gorgeous art and the very NOT clichéd characterizations of both main characters made it worth the ick factor.

I want to rate this higher but it's really 3.5 at best. It has a good message but it still feels surface level somehow. Like it's 6 chapters, but it feels more like 4 in terms of content. It's very heavy on the emotional toll and yet the resolution doesn't feel as satisfying. The pacing I guess? It's all happens too fast, not enough to really gut punch you with the feels. Oh well. It's still good! Just fast.

Not into the angst but I'm curious about the story because of their other manga. Skimmed ch 5 and 10, see how it ends before deciding whether to read the whole thing. I dunno, I'm getting big Banana Fish with Yakuza and corporations vibes as of 2.11... :/ Aaaaand they both lived! Happy ending lol. I skipped all the in between details though so it's just kinda... Yay, I guess? I don't intend the read the whole angsty story any time soon tbh, so I won't give it a rating.

This is great! They're such a power couple <3

Both are coworker couples. The first one is kinda lame. FWB, bottom is oblivious and doesn't take the top's constant declaration of feelings seriously. Pretty annoying. Second couple has an odd dynamic, but it's good in the end. Established couple, HUGE gap moe! A bit short, but pretty good.

There's definitely something special about this author, though they still fall into the trope of the gay character in gay/"originally straight" couples being the bottom. But that aside, the comedy and more realistic/casual behavior and personalities of the cast is super refreshing.
