Guiding Hazard

Ongoing | Chungnyun,Sunsun | 2023 released

A. LITERAL. MASTERPIECE. genuinely haven’t felt this turned on from a manhwa since i first discovered “jinx” or “the ghosts’s nocturne” or something of similarly epic proportions, lmfao. i’ve loved every aspect of this story thus far!!! i now regret only having browsed through the first couple of chapters initially… didn’t mean to stick around; was only supposed to have a look at the art and got played by the author’s skill-set. edit: i decided to reread this once the raws for season two started getting released (reading it PROPERLY this time), and maaaan, now i fully know why i grew so attached to these characters in the first place. <33 goddamn, the sexual tenting is PALPABLE. this ML of ours is such a green flag, too. i’m so turned on right now, heeeelp.

Max Mojave's Case

Complete | Skye | 2000 released

ohhh, nooo… ;_; we started out semi-wholesome (at least very lovey-dover if nothing else), but shit got dark reaaaal quick. fucking hell, there’s so much violence and SA here!!! i’m amazed that our two main boys have remained untainted (?) so far. holy shiiit. please, just let them end up happy and in one piece… is that really too much to ask for, author? ;_;

Kept Man

Ongoing | 박죠죠 (park jojo) | 2022 released

jesus! that was a wild one, haha. i quite enjoyed it, though! would’ve liked it more if the translation was better, for sure, but oh well. it probably wouldn’t be worthy of 5/5 star rating by the rest of the population (for VERY valid reasons), but since i rate everything based on my personal “engagement” with a story and its characters, here we are. ;p P.S. as in, i don’t necessarily consider the writing style &/or artistic quality while reviewing overall—i mostly go by how excited &/or engaged i feel while reading something. i tend to put genres & tropes aside most of the time. i mean, obviously, this is CLEARLY not a 5/5 story, lol. i simply looked forward to the updates throughout—therefore, a high rating! anyway, i would’ve given it a 4.5/5 rating if i could, just ‘cause the translation put me off. :p

Swapping

damn… that was one hell of a ride. c’: toxic as fuck, but intriguing nonetheless.
