Shitto wa ai o Kumoraseru
the art style is phenomenal and the eyes of the characters were enchanting. the plot was good, mainly internal dialogue. I love when authors use music as the main detail to the story. I think this was interesting and fun to read but also felt empty and their relationship isn’t the healthiest. I’m happy the seme didn’t leave. I am happy although the seme gave up his passion because he no longer loved it he still stands by his partner and plays the piano with him. I think their relationship lacked details that could better influence how I see them together. I would say it’s toxic or unhealthy I just think there is baggage and emotions that need to be properly expressed. overall good story just missing some pieces.
Snow Fairy
an absolutely beautiful story. the art style is incredible. the plot is refreshing. the love and development are well thought out. I like the time jumps because the plot didn’t feel rushed. i’m so happy they stayed at the house his parents built. such a lovely story.
Love or Hate(Yeongha)
i’ve been avoiding starting this. i prefer a story to be finished so i’d not have to wait but this one has grown quite popular. it’s full of drama but contains a beautiful story and phenomenal art. everyone contains a difference of opinions when it comes to their relationships such as how one should love themselves first or how can someone love someone else if they don’t love themselves. but in honesty, that’s not how i feel my personal relationships aren’t much different than heasoo. i read some of the comments and they have a repetition that neither joowon nor teakyung is good choices and that haesoo needs to love himself first. my opinion differs maybe it’s because of personal experience or maybe it’s because of sympathy but i don’t think either joowon or taekyung is in the wrong. haesoo and joowon built their relationship together and revolves around each other, letting go was never going to be easy, was their relationship healthy? of course not but it was the dynamic they created together, had they not be stepbrothers i think their relationship would have been something beautiful but that’s not the story. joowon dedicates his merry existence to heasoo. contrary to what people’s comments have expressed i think haesoo and teakyung are creating something memorable from ashes. teakyung is selfish, yes but if he wasn’t selfish he would have never been able to put cracks in heasoon’s walls and helped him experience emotions and thoughts he was scared to face. their relationship isn’t built on time together and it’s not built on growing up together but it has many new things. the story feels predictable and then completely unpredictable at the same time. i feel haesoo will choose neither and then i feel like he will choose one of the guys, he’ll never let go of joowon but he also can’t let go of the one who saved him. anyway, i’m done with my babbling so i just had a few other things to write. why is heasoo that beautiful the illustration is incredible, the characters are all attractive but something about his lack of emotions and dark words just draws me in. next thing i can’t believe the dad new, i was suspicious if he knew but men are oblivion’s so i was still shocked. and i can’t believe the whole stalker thing is being pushed aside. well, that's all happy to see what’s to come after chapter 77. don’t feel like finishing 03/2022
Migite ni Miemasunoga, Ore no Kareshi de Gozaimasu
attractive coworkers I enjoyed this story. the beautiful art style, good plot, minimal drama, and a guy who is curious about his prostate. I’m happy that the insecure girl broke up with him because she was not the one. based on his character I could see how she felt insecure but it’s always important to communicate with your partner so those insecurities don’t create their own story. I think the development is good. I did not like the friend who called the mc shaggy right in front of him, that was just rude. I think this was good but most of all I enjoyed the art and simplicity.
Dragon's First Crush
royalty x human dragon ch 40 - this is good. the art style is pretty and for a shounen-ai it still has a little spice. the characters are enjoyable well except for the deranged uncle who is keeping the mcs dead mothers body as a trophy. the queen is evil and honestly can not wait for her downfall. the dragon's fathers are kind and I hope to see how their relationship came to be. I like how there wasn’t too much drama with the prince coming to terms with his feelings. the dragon mc is beautiful and I like his long hair. most dragon stories make me cry because they have tragic backstories and outlive their partners and family. so far the story has been good and I can’t wait to what’s next.
Keep Holding On
this was a wonderful story. It was nothing special but still it was absolutely beautiful. I adore their relationship and the author did great portraying their love. I didn’t think the childhood friend already had feelings for the main character so seeing how he also has been in love for so long was heartwarming. I liked all the characters and I really wish it was longer. I think it would’ve been better but I still enjoy how the author completed this story. I am happy that the mcs father was still part of his life. I’m not sure how it worked out with the guy who confessed but he seemed reasonable so I assumed he planned it all so he was ready for the rejection. I’m honestly happy I came across this cute story.
Tu Quoque
the world I wish we lived in. I loved how normalized adoption is in the story. I loved the freedom the characters had. their love was not an obstacle. I was happy to see them holding hands with their children at the end. this was lovely. it made me feel “normal.” this was a simple plot about two strangers slowly falling in love. not too much drama and no dramatic misunderstandings. felt real but also not real (if that makes sense)
Tabun Korekara Ai no Hibi
this made my heart smile. I get how the mc feels. when hope is lost every bad thing just keeps building up and it’s hard to see the path ahead. it’s like a never ending brick wall is in front of you. I am happy he found his passion again. it’s not about relying on someone for happiness, it’s about having someone to be there for you and remind you of the good. the twins were also cute and I like how the ex-wife automatically knew the feeling the seme held. I enjoyed how the relationship developed and also how it was relatable. it’s been a bit since I read something that made me feel less alone. this was lovely and I liked the honesty and communication. the patience the seme had, along with the love and endless support was amazing to read. it’s not always 50/50 sometimes one has to carry more weight and that’s okay.
Kabukichou Bad Trip
model (dom) x host (turned sub) lovely artwork. had my knees trembling. I think the plot was well and the characters were nice. honestly stayed for the artwork. I enjoyed season 1 much more than season 2. happy the couple got more chapters but at the same time the desire to read it declined. sadly, they were outed but I was happy to see such supportive friends. I liked how they dom wanted to do play, it appears fun and daring. kinda funny how him being able to read minds wasn’t a big deal and was just accepted. overall the story was okay.
