Dear Door

Complete | Pluto | 2000 released

| 4.8 STARS | the only reason its not 5 stars is because theres just some things that bothered me like how kyungjoon took like 10 years or something to reincarnate in hell and he cant even go back to the human world and stuff like i would have preferred it if there wasnt all this insane lore about lucifer and the angels and devils it made it so complicated and dramay :sob: and i cant remember anything from that arc i enjoyed the earlier parts of the story the best when sid was the main antagonist <3 but those are my main complaints and they werent even that bad anwway dear door is one of my most og bl's and is super nostalgic so i love it and its very important to my heart <3

| 2.9 STARS | omg i rad this after taking nyquil im actually geeeked run my eyes and arms are so heavy ok next day im not geeked from nyquil anymore basically i speedrun read this because i was tired and it was like 6am and bored idek why i decided to finish it but anyway it would have been so much better if the seme wasnt so ugle and old and i think a lot of the other readers agree but it is also true that throughout the story he becomes a bit more likeable? i still would much prefer if yuki wasn't a forced prostitute in the red light district even though its a huge part of his character i just hate that in any character it doesnt matter what story :_( anyway but yuki looked very beautiful and androgynous and the story has potential to not make me ick if it was different but because of many faults and my personal preferences this is only gonna get 2.9 stars

Absolutely Ruined Love

Complete | Suma | 2000 released

| 4.5 STARS | been a very long time since I read this so unfortunately no comprehensive review I just remember they only had sex at the very end and it was epic and the dissociative identity disorder goes crazy UPDATE: alr so i reread it and basically yeah it goes crazy ESPECIALLY the boning idk who the artist sold their soul to but omg it goes so hard now ma dongjae is the uke and hes very cute and pretty however he is also very cringe and naive and my god his fashion sense is putrid but hes still a rlly likeable character however dumb he may be sometimes then the seme(s) han tae jun/oh are both epic though i prefer han tae oh because hes sillier and more flirtatious and its thanks to him that basically all the action happened (⁠人⁠*⁠´⁠∀⁠`⁠)⁠。⁠*゚⁠+ now the reason I'm lowering the rating is because of how rushed the ending felt like you can tell the author didn't wanna go past 30 chapters so it left me feeling a bit dissatisfied even though that final bone scene was incredible it didn't even last half of the last chapter so like I said they were rushing the completion also another thing was I just didn't enjoy the drama like at all fr ik it isnt supposed to make me happy but it just made me sad even after it was resolved i still didn't think it was necessary so yauhb anyway it's still defo a great read so yippe (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡

| 2.5 STARS | the main value this has to me is nostalgia and the memory I had of it always trying to remember this story that I read when i was younger but dropped at the time because it was too much for me back then unfortunately i was very disappointed and disillusioned by my memory after the first like 3 or 4 chapters and the captive arc ended it started the romance and forgiveness and backstory arc which was cliche cringe and boring also hate to say it but the art is mid and the anatomy of the bodies is ugly like they're so lanky and skinny and their faces arent pretty and im usually pretty lenient on art styles taking into consideration stylistic choices but in this case i just could not enjoy anything because of the boniness of their bodies mainly the uke's anyway not much else to say about it just happy i finally found this story again despite being disappointed i dont have to be plagued by memories of this anymore

How To Survive As A Player

Ongoing | Sambaek | 2022 released

| 4.4 STARS | ik this was supposed to be rlly good but i barely remember anything so ima reread this like super soon also just realized this is by the same artist as yarichin bitch club lol K so this might be brief because im so super tired rn but this story definitely places a lot of importance on homophobia and it's effects because it's a main plot point on saya's and ogata's relationship and basically just the main drama factor in the way of their relationship but anyway into the characters I love love love saya so much his character is so cute adorable and pretty and gyaru and oh my lawd his writing is so epic too i like the feeling of realism to him hes so amazing despite how short this was and ik everybody in the comments agree ogata on the other hand needed that character development because he was too ambitious and tried to get with saya before he thought about how saya was a man which just resulted in feelings being hurt and dramaaa but in the end their relationship was super cute like the ending of chapter 5 was so fluffyee and 5.5 satisfied my yaoi desire because they never actually got to 4th base in the main story anyway yeah disregard what I said about this not being long at the start like damn I locked in but that just proves how much I enjoyed this even though my eyes were dropping the entire time yes it was worth it 4.4 stars

| 4 STARS | the origin story between yuri and tamura and i remember reading this on mrm a very very long time ago before finding it again here a while ago so im just rereading and properly reviewing now tehe SO yeah there's the whole backstory between those two and then a time skip to present where they switch and it's epic even though there's some dub con and choking kink but anyway I still had a pretty vivid memory of this even before so it defo left a big impression on younger me understandably lol anyway 4 syars

| 3 STARS | found this while looking for yarichin wa! and it wasn't bad fr its 3 two chapter stories with the first one being my favorite and the cover of the title the 2nd one is my 2nd fave and 3rd one my least but first one clears them both tbh uke is tatsuo and hes very cute and of few words while also looking like a delinquent i like his type of character a lot then satoshi is alright hes a yellow flag to me but tatsuo is my fave out of all stories anyway dont feel like writing reviews for the other ones but the 2nd one was about a host club between some rural tanned osaka guy who wished to be a host x arrogant number one host/manager of club finally the 3rd one was at a concert at a campsite between a naive muscular fan of the band x manipulative devious guy full of piercings who rlly liked him after seeing him overall rating with all of them is 3 stars but if it was only the first one like 3.5 stars but i put way too much effort into this review lol

Full volume

| REREAD | i obviously remember full volume is an insanely fetishy and kinky pornhwa that still has plot but cant really remember what it was other than the fact that the uke, beom was a camboy and the seme, dowon was his superfan and they were neighbours and that theres a lot of cringe and second hand embarrassment but ig i should attempt a reread lol

| 3.7 STARS | extra: replace every "uke" with dojun and every "seme" with jaehee currently rereading but idk if i will finish it because ive had it on hold for a while and while im writing this im at ch. 49 out of 125 also its already in the middle area of my tabs which is not good but i do know that the uke is kind of annoying like a lobotomite and made horrible education decisions back when they were in highschool for the sake of seme so that he could get into the same college as him (basically he refused the special entrance or something that you could only get if you were top 2 in class because seme was top 3 and by not accepting his offer and going for general admission seme could get the special entrance but this is super not allowed so he had to make a bunch of viable excuses as to why he wasnt accepting the special entrance which led to him breaking up with seme so his dad wouldnt find out because his dad was super sus and literally abusive but anyway that is a main plot point and important to remember because that first breakup in highschool that the uke did for that reason and then ghosted the seme is the reason the seme did everything in the beginning of the story) anyway i think this story would have been better if it was highschool life and not college life because i really love highschool settings i always think of like lookism and back to school and all those japanese school bl's maybe i like them because i resonate with them more being in highschool but they're always such a vibe (as long as they're good ofc) and there were many long backflash periods in this where they were in highschool and i just keep thinking if the story was happening there it would be so much better because they looked so carefree and happy back then i hate how much drama there is in this story bruh OKAY i wrote way too much this is a whole ahh essay so im done now i think for now maybe 3.7 stars
