ALisAnimeLover's manga / #multiple stories(263)

The first story is a continuation of Satoshi and Kakeru's story ftom The "Flow" in Flower. Whilst their relationship is still unknown (lmao), it's so cute how they really care for each other. The seme is veeery sexual and the uke is asexual although they just adjust to each other (not quite for the seme, he just tried once and couldn't bear it lololol). Weird couple. A match made in heaven. As for the second story, it's about co-workers in a game dev company where the uke has an obsession with lingerie. The uke masturbates in front of the seme while he's sleeping, but it turns out that he's actually awake. Hehehehe. Perfect kinky couple. I don't see the point of the seme wanting to make a new company and ~steal~ the uke from the original company. Idk, the company president seems nice.

Again, I like the first story better while everyone else likes the other one better. Tbh, the second story feels like a band aid solution. It was too short to make the story more... sensible. It's like "okay, you're hurt. You met with someone who cared for you. I know this isn't enough, so just have my love and let's have sex and you forget about it." The first one also felt lacking, although it's more acceptable than the second one. Would've been 3/5 if not for the second story. And yeah, even though it's cliche af with the angels and demons thingy after death, it's still refreshing to see that they all had roles in the company, lmao. The full moon = heat (idr the term they used) is totally a pwp plot point though - although I gotta admit, the heart pupils made it reeeally good.

The first story is... ewwww. Dude, he's like your father! 1/10 The second story is okay, but it's messy and bland. Welp. 2/10 The third is rape. That's it. The story is messy, and the story is about rape. Don't even damn sugarcoat that it's not rape. FFS. 0/10. The 4th one is cute, bitin and u kno someone loves u if they say they love u more than food. Haha. 6/10 Last is cuuute but messy charas. Better if longer. 6

The first story is a heartwarming story about 2 sex friends turning into lovers. Simple, but sweet. The second story is about childhood friends turning into lovers. The start was a bit bland, and as addressed by the story, the uke's response felt empty - after all, his response was simply brought about him not wanting to part, not necessarily because he likes the seme the same way. What I liked about this story is when the seme harassed the uke while he's asleep (kiss + light touch), and how he stopped in the middle and felt guilty about it until the big revelation that the uke was actually awake (+ the uke's revenge by kissing him while he's passed out drunk). Another likeable thing about this is how the uke actually felt scared when the seme kissed him while he's supposedly asleep - would my friend/bf actually stoop that low? Nice realistic touch. The third story is the weakest story in the anthology tbh. Whilst not bad, it's just... meh. The uke just fell in love with the seme's hands (lmao fetish), but I never actually felt how or why, just smashed onto your face. Likewise with the seme. You just know they like each other because they're in a bl. I'd actually appreciate the story even if they just stayed as friends.

The main story (ch 1 - 5 + 8) is nice, and has a nice pace. The teacher might seem a bit wishy-washy although you could totally relate to his feelings. I want more closure with regards to other related stuffs though - like how his ex will act (I mean, it's a bit illegal to have student x teacher, although at least they got together only after the student graduated). Aside from that, all's well. And I love the seme's friends, so chill. Esp that black-haired dude that already knew way before but never talked about it as sign of respect for his friend. Ahhh~ such nice friends. As for the extra stories, the first one is... too fast too furious. Uke got drunk, mistook seme as his ex, wakes up and realizes what he's done, pretends to forget. Seme learns a bit about uke's past + that the uke is gay (yay), makes a move. The end. Although it's nice that the seme already liked the uke way before, haha, kinda fresh. -- can't say anything about the uke tho. As for the second/last extra story... MAN, THAT WAS HEARTWRENCHING. "Let's make a fruit and move on" :((( Can you call it a happy ending if they don't end up together but are "happy" nonetheless? :(((

*not really forgettable but just that i didn't remember that it's this manga that had these stories chapter 1 - annoying story about a guy "falling in love" with his stalker. stop romanticizing stalking gdi -10/10 pwede ba chapter 2 - meh story about a guy who notices that while his crush is an extrovert, he's not contented with his life. his crush begins to like him because apparently he's the first to notice... tho tbh probably not, i bet some of his friends notice, they just don't say it outloud because it's a sensitive issue. plus he only liked him because he's "unique". idk, babaw. 2/10 chapter 3 - like ch 7 (second/last extra story #fave) of yukidoke no koi. except this time they end up together. idk, while i find it heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time, the story fails to address the issue of their respective gf/bf. the gf seems nice, poor girl for having a bf who is ready to throw her down the drain for his first (and only?) love. the bf seems nice, but wth happened? i need explanations, i need an acceptable reason #piolo 3/10 chapter 4 - cuuute. about a guy who doesn't know what love is #same. the only sad thing about this is that this is the manga/chapter where angie picked up her kabedon reference. ughhh, angie, why :( (di pa rin ako maka-move on pucha.) + ch 5 had extras for this story which contributes a +0.5 for it's score, nyehehe. 7/10 (sarap -1 dahil kay angie tho) chapter 5 - hmmm, bittersweet. i kinda liked it - separating only to reencounter as better versions of themselves (not quite for the seme, although for the uke, it's the going through the proper process of moving on without hurting anyone else *i say uke and seme but they're not really established, lol). I find the concept that they're technically strangers a bit... off though. lmao. 6/10

The first story was cute. "I want to become an adult first". Cute but honestly, it's just lack of communication. That said, it deserves more stars than what I gave this whole volume. probs 3/5 stars + what's better about the first story is how it's the extra story/side couple, kehehe. Nice twist that they got introduced before the main couple. (though it's not really main since there's still another story) The second/main story really annoyed me. I don't like the seme at all. Not because of their position in their relationship (seme/uke although both are tachi), but because it doesn't really feel like he loves the uke even after the manga ended. Seems like he just wants to be in a relationship, and the uke conveniently likes him. 2/10 As for the next story... chapter 4 was okay. Like legit okay, I liked it tbh. But... chapter 5 is bull. I understand the jealousy issue and that they wanted to resolve it. But fuck, that's not how you resolve it. Don't rape your partner just because you're jealous of his exes. "This is not jealousy, this is just not being trusted". Boy, you know what the issue is, don't stay with that asshole. 0/10

First story is about *spoilers* a cat who died and kept lingering around his owner which ends with him finding peace now that he knows that his owner has good friends who will stay by his side for better or for worse, and will stand up to those who'll be against him. Much love for friends like that~ While it kinda bothered me with the "even if it's a different type of love" (i mean, wth does that mean?) I found it sweet and sad. I miss my dead cats :( The next story is a one-shot about a couple breaking up where the "receiver" (of the break-up message) didn't bother talking it out with his partner due to frustration. A stranger, a seemingly schoolmate/classmate, then talks to him and convinces him to talk it out in order to have no regrets. This stranger is revealed to be the spirit of the cat, still lingering around his owner who is now a teacher. He still can't see him though - and just dismisses the feeling that the cat is still with him which is nice but sad? idk why I even think of it as nice. The third story shows the pure love between a man and a tree spirit. Nothing sexual or anything, just pure love of wanting to stay together. The fourth story is about the man's nephew trying to discover who/what his uncle is in love with, and him accepting that he has lost against the tree spirit - who is so freaking nice to show him their precious memory of promising to be together.
