lilithespark's manga / #school life(861)

This volume really delivered with the fluff and picturesque future for the main characters. So cute! I did enjoy this. That aside, I also have to say this volume disappointed me. Most of the story is just side couple mumbo jumbo. A side character is introduced to cause strife for the main couple, but oh wait, he’s just a set-up for another side couple. I wanted more adulting, youth, growth… But there was only a very small portion of that. The rest of the manga is just sex, sex, and more sex. Then, a magical time skip, and wow, pregnancy! I wish the mangaka had stuck to just one theme. It feels like they tried to cram too much into this one volume. This story isn’t meant to be that deep, but still… It’s a bit sad that I couldn’t engage with this on a deeper level. This is a bit of a personal qualm, but I just cannot wrap my head around hybrid wolf-rabbit babies lol.

This is really good! A true depiction of a wholesome friendship. It illustrates Satom’s struggles with his changing voice and just youth in general pretty well. I don’t think I could see their relationship as anything other than platonic because let’s be for real… Most of the time they spend together are as a middle schooler and a middle aged man lmao. Anyway, loved the comedy! Kyouji is a silly yakuza. Their relationship is quite realistic with the pacing and everything. This is a short but also extremely immersive read.

This author dropped yet another banger… I loved this! Loved the gorgeous art. I also liked the characters. The MC is asocial, sleep deprived, has trauma, but is also resilient. The ML is kind of like your typical ikemen, but he’s compassionate. What really drove me to this story was the portrayal of the MC’s trauma, which manifests as facial blindness. It’s very realistic and his journey in overcoming it is relatable and immersive. Can’t wait for volume 2!

This manga has such good humor LMAO. I love this mangaka’s comedic timing and the use of humor even in the more mundane settings like a school. it’s also heartwarming that hoshi cares so much about his students + the students’ friendships with each other. the characters are just really relatable, which adds the comedy and story. love the art ofc. i like that the characters look realistic. off topic BUT i ship hoshi and kobayashi so hard even tho hoshi canonically has a wife and daughter XD blame ch 4… anyway, this manga is gold in a sea of mediocrity

this is very gay. also im a sucker for the childhood friends trope so i already love this update: I desperately need a second volume of them in college *sobs* They’re so cute, and I’m glad there weren’t any misunderstandings. i loved all the little elements that tied this together like them thinking the same thing at the same time! it’s present at the beginning AND the ending hehe. i’m not sure how any one of them thought best friends having sex is a normal thing… anyway, this is definitely peak school life BL. the art is so good, and i liked how the leads are both good looking in their own ways

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.

yk what this is rly interesting. it goes deep into the systemic side of the omegaverse. very good commentary on feminism and patriarchy.

Lmao this is so funny. “I ship us”?? This feels like the plot of a Wattpad fanfiction. Love the supportive friends 5

I love this! It’s so refreshing how this manga shows the other side of being gay, where the characters aren’t super handsome ikemen—liking someone and having things not end up like a picture perfect fairy tale. maybe a love goes unfulfilled. ACK but i just thoroughly appreciate how realistic this is. it explores a different side of BL that definitely should be expressed more often imo
