aoko's manga / #slice of life(124)

typical shoujo EXCEPT the one new attribute they decided to add was this girl had to be a complete maniac for MUSCLES??? like.. okay… kinda cringe at times and of course every shoujo would not be complete without the love triangle, so unnecessary

it’s the way ryounouske fell in love with himself since his husband has the same name, thereby cementing his journey in self love. in this essay… nah but fr, this was such a heartbreaking interpretation of lgbt representation in japan, hopefully the youth over there will find the equality they so deserve

that’s it? feel like there could’ve been more done with this

this was already heartbreaking, “a silent voice” really traumatized me bc any deaf impaired romance has me on the edge of my seat; the pining and gradual romance between the mc’s was so heartwarming!!

this is fucking hilarious, but it’s making me kinda conflicted since the mc would be so cute in a relationship with a guy from this world, but he wants a sadistic short haired busty woman so.. really who can blame him…

himmel being mentioned in every chapter is so real bc his love for frieren stood the test of time, it’s just sad that she realized it too late; the anime is just as good and really does the fight scenes justice — currently watching edits and there’s not enough hype, it’s so underrated; this is a personal preference but would’ve like to see more himmel x frieren moments considering they met again ???

age gap is throwing me off like please don’t show ELEMENTARY him chasing after high school him??? 12 yrs…. ohmygod— polynesian sex is js a fun fact to learn?

it’s really just a culmination of domestic bliss; highschool sweethearts to parents ! it’s rare to see realistic depiction of adoption in manga; ofc there are issues with it imo, didn’t particularly care for the love interests and that random homophobic girl but whatevs

look man. all for age gap relationships, especially when the guy is a responsible adult — and bro is! it’s just.. literally nothing happens? you have a premise and four chapters? do something with it instead of just writing basic “girl likes guy.. but wait! guy is old!”

FINALLY A GOOD SHOUJO AI — was feining for a good one with angst and separation judging from future arts; ngl what makes me like it even more is that the mc is exactly my type lmao
