pluviophiliac's manga / #precious as hell(687)

…is this a yaoi or not? 0.o anyway, i’m already completely OBSESSED with this. this is such good writing!!! god, i love stories with properly complex characters like these guys. it’s great. i’m loving this development, too. <33 they’re both so precious i could cry. this is definitely going to be a new favorite.

it’s been awhile since i outright CACKLED like this. this is fucking amazing, man… comedic GOLD—i’m not even kidding. i’m wholly in love with this manhwa and these characters!!! that whole pervert bit nearly had me in seizures. i was laughing so fucking hard i nearly awoke the whole apartment complex. can’t wait ‘til this story’s finished so i can reread it and dieeee all over again. #obsessed

i like this. and i’m low-key ECSTATIC about the fact that he’s actually putting in the effort himself. it’d be amazing if he turns out to be an actual medical genius! man, i’m so weak for stories like these. <3 edit: i’m seriously fucking obsessed with this. KING!!!!!

wow. what an incredible redemption story. he’s worked SO. FUCKING. HARD. to do well and to be a better person. oh joong seok has grown so much since we first started out… i’m so freakin’ proud of his accomplishments, and it’s been amazing seeing this slow and gradual progress of his—genuinely. (it truly has been a process, lol.) this man clearly thought so lowly of himself to the point where he couldn’t distinguish his strengths and capabilities from his flaws. in his eyes, he was just plain trash; undeserving of anything even remotely close to atonement or forgiveness. but man, look at how far he’s come!!! i mean, i absolutely DID see his point—he was human scum—but he’s simply not the same person he once was anymore. that much is clear as day! i’m so, so happy that he’s finally come to realize that for himself. what impressed me the most is the fact that he remained the very person deep within his core. you can clearly tell that ‘high school’ oh joong seok is still ‘post-gangster’ oh joong seok, only matured. i suspect that’s what made his achievements so believable to me. ugh, dude!!! all these efforts he’s made to improve himself!!! i just can’t stop myself from hyping over it. this is what true character development is. it’s inspiring, to be honest. and i love him. LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM. i wish i had a friend like him. and this redemption arc of his has been top-fucking-notch in regards to quality and believability. for what it’s worth, i’ve been SO. IMMERSED. in this manhwa ever since i first started reading it back in november. i’ve rarely come across such an incredibly flawed character with this much positive (both achievable and believable) character development. in the beginning, i seriously thought he’d be irredeemable. i really did. he was such a dick! i thought he’d remain a villain ‘til the very end—albeit a villain with a purpose and a slightly improved moral compass, at best. but he’s become a genuinely good person, and that mere fact is moving in itself! obviously, i should’ve given him the benefit of the doubt. i honestly can’t believe it still, lol. the fact that made perfect sense, too!!! that’s the most shocking part of it all to me. i adore, adore, ADORE him. it’s been such a journey. i’ll definitely reread this one of these days. i even stated tearing up at the end! and just like i said earlier, i was unexpectedly moved by his story. the side characters, antagonists and their personal growths have been incredible, too. man, i’m beat. i can’t wait to reread this, seriously. <33

this was a sweet read! low-key cringey and super frustrating most of the time—all those misunderstandings nearly KILLED me—but everything worked out in the end, so it’s all good. doubt i’ll ever reread this one.

this one has me IN. LITERAL. TEARS. i was rolling on the floor from all the secondhand embarrassment, i kid you not. this one i’ll DEFINITELY reread. i genuinely loved it! as well as its characters and their respective personalities.

this shit had me SO. FUCKING. DEPRESSED. it started out weird and their relationship was pretty damn toxic, not gonna lie, but things really changed up eventually and improved over time. i remember liking the ending, too! in the end, it’s a story about mental health and personal growth. can’t recall much about its details or anything like that, but i might actually reread this one day, too.

I really liked this manhwa! I especially enjoyed the dynamic between the characters, and I also found all of them interesting in their own way, relatable and surprisingly realistic for a comic. I loved the character development and getting to watch them grow and mature—both together and separately as individuals. Overall, it was an appreciable story! The only reason I’m giving it four stars instead of five is because it didn’t really have that ‘wow-factor’. It was good, and I did finish it in one go, but I don’t believe it’s something I’ll read again. (Not for awhile, at least.) Nonetheless, I think it’s worth the read!
