Choco Strawberry Vanilla
This is actually really good! It gets better near the end. It’s cool how they all like each other. it’s got this mature vibe, which is why it may not be everyone’s cup of tea
Ouji-sama no Ryuu
I think the only issue is that this is too short! I wanted to see more fluff of then actually being together rather than the MC just overthinking everything. there’s an actual plot built up, and it really feels as though the story could’ve been longer. so many things to expand upon but are still okay the way they are. the misunderstandings aren’t dragged out. the ml is your typical picture-perfect guy, but the story is pretty wholesome and a pleasant. decent read
Idol-kun wa Abakaretai
It’s kind of ironic how the pop star ML WANTS to be exposed but paparazzo MC just won’t do it lol. anyway, the characters are dynamic, especially the ML. almost feels like a coming of age story when the ml realizes he still wants to be an idol. like there’s an actual character arc?! yes pls. it’s cute, fluffy, smutty— actually really good read. i like how they’ve known each other ever since high school. def makes the tone lighter ^^
Itoshi no Makura-chan
Ugh they’re both so stupid. Misunderstandings… The MC is especially dense. But it somehow works? They really love each other, and this is fluffy. Got to know some new things about local idols, which is cool. Mostly funny, decent read. Smut is good. Ex kinda ruins it
Sankaku Twilight
Really cute! Nontoxic relationship. Nothing groundbreaking. Wataru really got on my nerves like bro manipulates Miki’s feelings and confesses only AFTER he’s moved on?? Red flag. Aside from him, the story is pretty fluffy and basic. Decent read.
Literature Boy
7/10 Very realistic, relatable manhwa. You can really connect to the two leads and identify with their struggles. From that standpoint, it’s well written. As a romance, this is pretty lacking. It feels like we’re being told that the leads are romantic, they’re this or that, etc, but I don’t think the author sufficiently expresses their supposed chemistry. Like the leads’ relationship, the story also feels unstable with the constant switching back and forth from the present to the past. It’s not the worst execution I’ve seen. I personally DESPISED the second couple like you will never convince to feed into the teacher x high schooler bull. They were just unneeded. This story gave me mixed emotions and had a bland aftertaste. Ending is also kind of abrupt and offered no resolution to Sunwoo’s major plagiarism conflict. I sound harsh, but it’s ultimately because I think this could’ve been so much more than it is.
Shinigami wa Korosenai
This was actually pretty cute! I like the concept of shinigami having this class/hierarchal system. The romance is cute but also bittersweet. I think the shinigami still loved the MC is in his own way. I just think it’s too short— there was so much potential with the world building! anyway, I actually liked this more than I thought I would.
Takatora-kun to Omegatachi
yk what this is rly interesting. it goes deep into the systemic side of the omegaverse. very good commentary on feminism and patriarchy.
Family, Now and Forever
This was great!! I loved how lowkey and realistic it was. The plot isn’t the most developed, but I think that’s kind of the point. You see the two leads and their child living as a family and going about their day to day lives. I rly like like the idea that they are “meant for each other,” that they are each other’s home, and are full of love. anyway, sobbing
