(enver + hugh )
+ supernatural strangers to lovers trope! vampire who "hates" humans x an exiled prince (his brother attempted to kill him, but the vampire saved him)
+ they are so cute :(( i wish this was longer so we got to explore more of their background!
+ i was so interested with hugh's past too, but it wasn't tackled much also the part where the brother asked for forgiveness ???? the audacity
+ the romance had a bit of slow burn, though ig it was still considered quite fast since we only had a few chapters
+ the art style is soooo pretty! i hope we get to see more works from this author! (maybe even longer too!) also, i want more side stories
(aloy + mikado )
+ childhood friends to lovers who are in a secret relationship! heir x accountant? was kind of confused abt their jobs? but ig it's set in a fantasy one :))
+ the longing in their eyes everytime they're away from each other PLEASE
+ the tragic yuri their moms had to go through NOOOOO glad their children got to fulfill the love they had for one another :((
+ i wanted to rate this a full five stars, however, i got a bit confused by the plot idk maybe that's just my reading comprehension lmao! i'll read it again in the future
+ the art style is so pretty! always obsessed with this author's art they also have good stories~ the setting of this was so refreshing hehe i also am a big fan of secret relationships so this was a feast!
(seiichi + mitsuru )
+ friends to lovers! high school romance filled with green flags fluff overload! <3
+ idk how else to explain this? it's healing, very simple yet heartwarming
+ their friend group is also cute! very wholesome friendship ^^ i wish we got to see them reveal their relationship to yano though
+ badly wishing for S2 because we need more !!!! they're both so precious :(( it was also somewhat realistic especially the pacing! :))
+ the art style is adorable! i love the extras so much! their smut scenes are so sensual and filled with so much affection another comfort couple fr!
(tou + shizuka )
+ childhood friends to enemies? to sort of friends to enemies again to friends again and finally to lovers
+ abused anti social student x average student? nothing's that special with shizuka lmao
+ i really liked the plot! it had depth & it's not common to read psychological stories like this. however, i just think shizuka's character should've been written better? idk the way he treated women was so disgusting :/ also, his friends were also nasty for harassing tou
+ i get that they're both morally gray characters which makes it more realistic, but idk it just didn't sit right with me especially with the fact that shizuka's stepdad was never arrested for what he did ???? i wish we got to see them address their issues & heal properly
+ i feel like i saw some character development, some issues were resolved (like with shizuka's friend), but ig it wasn't enough for me? but i really liked this story! i think it deserves a higher rating! :))
+ the art style is so pretty too! it really fit the vibe of the story ^^ i wanna read similar stories to this since i love seeing a broken character be healed or find solace in another
(chiba + yaotome )
+ driving instructor x his student (they are the same age, okay?)~ the student is a mangaka!
+ idk if this is considered old man yaoi? anyway, i'm drowning in sweetness
+ they're both so adorable :(( i love the pining, the development, their little dates >< they're just so cute
+ they also have good communication! ik there were misunderstandings, however, it was swiftly resolved
+ the art style is amazing! i am so obsessed !!!! i need more works from this author hehe their love story is now a part of my comfort stories <3
wondering if this is considered old man yaoi while they're 29-30 is just diabolical (I'm 28)
LMAOOO i'm sorry i just asked that because of the vibes & dynamic they gave off since often times, characters who are around their 30s don't usually have this kind of dynamic or personality to them
nah you're fine dw about it<3 i just thought it was funny bc I'm also pushing 30 and can't drive (and gay) what are the odds lmao
(asahi + madoka )
+ strangers to coworkers to lovers! idol group omegaverse trope
+ alpha x omega (who presents as a beta to the public)
+ it was a bit fast? a bit cringey? ig kind of cute?
+ their dynamic was okay, the plot could've been better if executed right but it was not the worst! :>
+ the art style was cute!
(akane + makise )
+ omega student who sees crystallized pheromones & a beta nurse teacher who gave him peace since he had transparent crystals/pheromones! ^0^
+ it's an omegaverse! has the reencounter trope
+ they were so adorable! was a bit disappointed in akane since he took advantage of maki in the earlier parts however, i'm glad that it didn't escalate into a toxic point!
+ the mutual respect & ig longing? was so cute i could really feel how much they loved each other <3
+ i'm excited to see more of them since the author announced a S2 i hope we get to see more domestic scenes~
+ the art style is very pretty !!! super seated for volume 2, i hope we get to see them build a family
(tsubame + miyama )
+ childhood friends/rivals to lovers! it's an omegaverse :))
+ alpha x omega! they're both delinquents
+ i didn't know this was a sequel lmao but it could be read as a standalone ^^
+ everything felt a bit too fast and of course it had noncon :/ i just wish we could read omegaverse stories without that nonetheless, everything worked out for them! they had a cute ending
+ the art is quite good! i love the visuals of the parents <3 idk if i'll read their story though since i saw that noncon was again present lol
(nao + non )
+ one-sided idolizing? to coworkers (theater) to lovers! :)) method acting trope act as if they're lovers
+ rookie actor x his idol (veteran actor) ^0^ where they become each other's motivation
+ i think the plot was cute. however, i felt like the pacing was a bit too fast the conflict was quite immature as well? idk i didn't feel the connection that much.
+ their relationship after being official was definitely adorable! their dates were so cute & all though it was a bit unrealistic since they kept going out in public but there wasn't any conflict about privacy stuff which is usually a staple in these types of plot
+ the art style is pretty! but, nao's proportions reminds me of a child's which is why it was a bit awkward to look at especially the smut scenes lol HAHAHA
(yeonho + jang-goon )
+ coach x innocent wrestler? idk how to call this trope but the coach ended up teaching the wrestler some tips in bed since he was that innocent lol
+ this was okay? i mean it was just porn, let's be honest but ig the good thing was it wasn't toxic at all
+ ngl ik crying characters are somewhat annoying but i lowkey enjoyed seeing the wrestler cry since its not often to get characters like that (i like seeing them babyfied )
+ pacing was too fast, a bit cringey plot too but it wasn't the worst! it would've been better if the execution of the last part (confession arc?) was done a bit better but t'was okay ig
+ the art style's pretty!
