Popo's manga / #School Life(8)

CH1: The translators completely misunderstood what Seok says. And this part is actually very important since it sets up the main conflict of this short story *facepalm* >>>>>Translator: “I __AM__…a man who is no longer a virgin…I believe that I should die….” >>>>>What Seok probably said (I don’t have the raws but based on context clues): “I __BELIEVE__…a man who is no longer a virgin…should die….”

This is a really fast but engaging read. Usually when stories are fast paced, it means that the writer is just skipping around, trying to hit plot points without fleshing out the story of characters. This story manages to be fast paced without all that mess. The story is really tight, meaning that's very little meandering or instances where the plot just stalls. So l which makes it very engaging and makes you want to keep reading (I did it in one sitting in a be few hours!). Don't read if you're sensitive about bullying or bodily injury. Hyeongoh suffers really horrible bullying until ch30. And then the revenge entails a lot of bodily injury. The flashback scenes at the end made me bawl. Only negatives are some small plot holes (obsessed stalker sociopathic serial killer(?) who only targets Hyeongoh's bullies? Namsoo being obsessed with being with Hyeongoh but connecting his crimes to police which eventually leads to their separation?) and I wish some things could have been fleshed out more (Hyeongoh's crush just disappears completely after a certain point lol). The ending isn't very realistic (but neither is the guardian angel secret twin brother avenger thing lol) but it makes me happy.

Ch17 Idk, singing about the pacing is off? It feels like nothing is happening but things actually do happen and the plot progresses but idk it feels the opposite lol. I guess I'm just bored by it?

Ch24

Ch73 Insecure, pianist student who developed stage fright after shitty, insecure ex ️ puppy dog soft-yandere younger classmate who hero worships uke except for when his sexual needs precedes uke's consent I haven't decided yet if seme is just a yellow flag or is he's a red flag hiding behind a green smoke screen

Ch1 A gangster named Peach and his unwilling recruit named Love

Ch13 dropping cuz it's getting old waiting for them to become an official couple. MC is denser than a block of wood and ML keeps coming on to him but never confesses so our dum dum MC keeps second guessing his feelings.

- 3 stars for the main story. The overbearing father creating a highly anxious son backstory was well done. But it got too soapy with seme's murder backstory + test cheater /murderer Joon + running off to the island
