Heesu in Class 2
this was sweet and wholesome. it was hard for me to get into for a while but overall i ended up liking it. although, the ending was upsetting with only one chapter representing eight years later and a bit of a cliffhanger.
Fools
this was sweet and represented a great slice of life for the main characters. i will say i was not a fan of them switching the names to english, and thank you to the person who did summaries for the first handful of chapters i won’t lie i was a bit confused. i was upset that the main characters never found out that it was each other they met four years ago. overall i did enjoy this story.
A Shoulder to Cry On
this was cute and funny but i didn’t like the ending. after everything, they went threw and the last chapter was nothing but sad thoughts. and then it just ends. i was upset i read the whole thing and then the ending ended up being rushed and not feeling completed. update 11/17/20 i think the original story was really good and the ending didn’t leave me feeling incomplete. i felt it was a reflection of reality and how some people can’t put in 100% so easily. but i think that the side stories left it feeling incomplete, knowing more of their bottled up thoughts made the ending harder to accept.
Jazz for two
words certainly can't describe how i feel. at first, i couldn't take this manga seriously because the art style for the first thirty or so chapters, their lips made me giggle and i couldn't stay focused on the characters. but the author did incredible as the art changed and the details become more beautiful i found myself focusing more and more on the story. this manga... i honestly don't know what to type i didn't think it would be so beautiful yet so tragic, the way each character connects broke my heart. i loved how the use of music brought them together. i personally listen to jazz music so i appreciated the use of different songs and the specific lyrics used. music is my escape from this world i hate so much and the reality that constantly haunts me. the way the two grew so close and created a beautiful relationship made me smile as i scrolled through each panel, the history revolving around taeyi's brother and seheon's father i think is what made this piece so beautiful. each couple was remarkable and the details changing as they grew made me proud. i cant say after reading this i'm happy but can't say i'm sad either, i'm just numb. but not in a bad way, it's just hard for me to understand how i feel because during it i fell in love with taeyi and seheon's story and i don't want to let go. i feel in love with their pain, with their happiness, the use of jazz, it wasn't just a genre but a part of who they are. this manga was truly original and i do hope that if their story continued it would stay truly beautiful.
All About Lust
i’m currently on chapter 28 and the storyline has been very cute and innocent. nothing to crazy, it’s simple and adorable. i will say wooseung’s best friend is superior, she is super sweet and caring standing up for him and listening. hehe, i think i might be crushing on her. i finished the manga and i'm definitely satisfied. season one was cute and i liked the storyline and how the characters turned their different desires into a beautiful relationship. however, season two was the power couple! those two are hilarious, polar opposites in every single way, and that's what made their relationship so special. shoutout to the author for having an asexual character, that made me really happy i kind of got that vibe on the first season but i really did appreciate you creating JJ's character.
Someone else's BL Manhwa
i've only read till chapter two and Seunghee has attempted to kill himself about four times. i think i love him. this manga is sweet and adorable but i'm slightly confused i thought the main character would be seunghee and the story would follow him but it seems to focus more on the "side couple". don't get me wrong im not complaining bc they are super cute. i'm not sure what seunghee is doing right now his life is so empty and lonely which is weird for how far i am in the manga, also what in the world does that man want from him. well anyways i'm still invested just confused on who the main couple is, im not use to the second couple have a long backstory so soon and then the story following them more. i'm not sure why but i didn't really enjoy the storyline for this manga. it felt empty and simple but don't get me wrong it was cute and enjoyable just not my taste.
Unripened Expression
i'm reading chapter 40 and my mans is in a whole love square. i know he has his crush on karam but my heart is rooting for junseo but its definitely jaewon's fault for acting so friendly and cute with him. ughhh someone will be getting hurt and im not ready for that, oh and his first love is making me mad.. you know he's gay, and it's not a joke so stop playing. why do these boys keeping being affectionate with each other and then say i want to stay friends... chapter 61 is where i lost faith in this story. my baby junseo deserved better! how do you not fall in love with the guy who was your rock, always there always listening, protecting you, and the worst part is they couldn't stay together as friends. one day they will be friends again and junseo will be dating a great guy who loves him but still i'm next level mad.
If You Hate Me So
i enjoyed this manga but the author did a lot of different things at the same time and at some points i had to reread to understand. i read "love is an allusion" before "if you hate me so" which i found funny when seeing their relationship develop differently. i decided to read this manga again and i just finished chapter 10 and i feel sick to my stomach. i remember that latter on it gets better and he learns from his wrong doings but still, this just doesn't sit right with me. it still feels rushed and it's hard to keep track of everything going on, all of the boys seem to have some sort of issue and don't know how to properly express themselves.
Truth or Dare
i'm around 10 chapters into the story and i find myself obsessed with the words, how they intertwine and tell a deep story. i know something is not right, that boy jinsol makes me feel on edge. he can't tell a lie but that doesn't mean he can't tell a temporary truth one that ends the second he says it. manipulative is a word i would use. wait no... what just happened please tell me chapter 30 is not real i honestly knew there was more to the story but didn't think this would be it. well, i finished and i loved it. the concept was original i haven't read a manga like this and the storyline was genuinely great. there were times when my heart was racing and i was getting anxious because i felt overwhelmed but this was truly a work of art. a part of me wants to go back and read what jinsol said to saegye all those times before chapter 30 but i know it will just upset me. the beautiful lines that drew me in, the endless care and support from jinsol just mean if i go back i can never read it with the same joy. the author did an incredible job with all of the plot twists and the character development was well throughout.
