Koketsu Dining
an exaggerated puppydog like tamaki from ouran and a chill guy who acts serious to hide his deep desires. its pretty much plotless fluff and apparently gets even more like this in the future volumes so i think im dropping it. honestly i expected him to be actually a tiger but also a wrestler and the author clearly knows nothing about it
Protagonist x Rival
The Villainess Reverses the Hourglass
years of experience teach a traumatized girl how to more effectively lash out at the people attacking her. it takes several more for her to notice the world around her isnt entirely hostile and to start to love as well as hate. i like the way arias design changes as she ages, and how her sister "the saint" has the big doe eyes that usually signal a sweetly passive shoujo protagonist. its just.. not that original or exciting of a story, but ive had some fun. i wish that the relationship development between aria and the crown prince wasnt so quick.
Dungeon Reset
The Duchess' 50 Tea Recipes
its a het manga, but the commitment to making all of the plot about tea is great, im actually enjoying myself here. no the characters and romance arent unique or engrossing but its like. counterfeit tea, how do we perfectly market the tea in this restaurant, tea cures cancer, im here for it lmao
Boku no Hero Academia
i have to read this for my volunteer job. has the occasional interesting story and a couple characters i really like, but overall embodies all the weaknesses of the battle-focused shounen genre. often very boring, characters are mostly one-dimensional, but ship erasermight everyone
