Amorou's manga / #Comedy(66)

4.5/5. The storyline and plot was unique, and it didn't fall into the typical cliches of most BLs. I'm glad Kishima ended up with Yumeno, who was the second ML, but I found Kirino's character so tragic and sad. The portrayal of relationships and the reality of living as a gay person was portrayed so accurately.

The biggest thing holding this manhwa back is the extremely poor and inconsistent translation. I'm sure I'm missing like half of the plot of this story; at parts, it's nearly impossible to follow. However, though the story is a little cliché, it's very cute and heartwarming. The art is also super pretty.

3.5/5. Funny and light-hearted. The relationship of the first couple was cute and had an interesting dynamic but overall that part of the story was a little bland. This story is a really good - and oftentimes comedic - depiction of what a healthy and consensual couple should look like. There was really good asexual representation as well! However, I just wasn't that hooked by the story (this took me a while to read), and I'm not a huge fan of the art style.

Damn, I'm disappointed. This actually had so much more potential. To start, the plot conveniences really took away from the story and prevented proper communication between Minyul and Jungsoo. The whole part where he got amnesia was especially frustrating, as he just conveniently seemed to forget everything about Minyul. Moreover, I don't understand why such a huge section of the story was dedicated to the Pyramid Scheme. What was the purpose of that? I guess it kind of showed that Hyun would be there for him ultimately? It's not that I think Jungsoo ended up with the wrong person-- Hyun was definitely the right person for him, and their relationship is a much healthier one. However, in terms of his relationship with Minyul, it was just too inconclusive. Their relationship was tied up too neatly in the plot, while also being left with way too many unresolved issues. There weren't enough conversations, and Jungsoo and Minyul never truly had a conclusive conversation about all the issues in their relationship. I also don't understand the whole problem with Minyul initially liking him because he resembled his previous partners, as ultimately his feelings in the end were real, and Jungsoo liked Minyul because he was attractive as well. None of Minyul's problems were resolved-- he never changed, and was left alone once again. It was just unsatisfying. The story was frustrating as a whole.

Sadly not a BL, but heartwarming and a well-told story nonetheless. It was pretty funny and cute, and the bromance was nice.

It was a sweet and cute story, but unremarkable in terms of plot, art, and characters, and it was very simple. Great gay representation though.

3.5/5. The plot is subpar; I really dislike the use of temporary amnesia as a plot device so that Jeha and Mongryong will sleep with each other. It's cute and the art is pretty, though. The sex scenes are pretty good too.

2.5/5. Just not my preferred relationship dynamic so I didn't enjoy the story much. It was also way too simple and dragged out only due to the MC's one insecurity. There was definitely a frustrating lack of communication in the couple. It was definitely cute though.
