idrk what to say to this one hahshs it was cute and disturbing (kinda) idk but the ending was cute ig jskdjdjdj the art was pretty though ❣

its a great and realistic sequel !! i just felt like the whole manga was filled with conflict and only towards the end u could feel a sense of security but other than that i think this was a good read also i wanted to see them tell the seme's parents and open up abt their relationship but the ending was cute and adorable <33

➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★☆☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★☆ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★☆ ※ this was okay, i think the plot was really interesting at the beginning since this is such a refreshing set-up and dynamic, i've never encountered an ex-yakuza turned bl author before hehe ^^ but i just the the development of their feelings wasn't really prominent~ i get how their feelings potentially grew for each other but its mostly just bc of them doing it nonstop.... i'm not really into that trope and i would've preferred more sweet conversations than them just doing it for most of the story :] also ik this was probably made with the intention of making the readers laugh since its very humorous but i was kind of uncomfy with the whole hirose forced sudou to write bl mangas and to do it with him D: like ik there was consent but at the same time it just didn't sit right with me :/ but they ended up being cute together (right ??) we never got to see them outrightly confess to each other but ig we could assume that they're officially dating now bc the sequel to sudou's manga is abt the MCs being lovey-dovey bfs but the thing is they aren't lovey-dovey at all i needed more domesticity from them >< they also just went on that one date and the rest were just them doing it jshsjhdjd also the thing with hayashi was just swept under the rug :0 that scene also made me uncomfy bc that was literally SA, hirose was sleeping and hes just touching him ????? anyway ig that was supposed to be a funny bit bc of the whole hayashi misunderstanding sudou's feelings for him but it isn't my thing so yea i didn't like it that much :< sudou also never revealed that he was a former yakuza to hirose but i'm guessing hirose's not that dumb to not even realize that sudou was indeed a yakuza overall this was okay, i had to take breaks while reading this bc i just wasn't feeling up to it :) it piqued my interest at first but the thrill died down as i read bc it just wasn't my cup of tea but i'm sure a lot of other readers would still appreciate and enjoy this since it is pretty funny and their dynamic's cute ^^ the art style is pretty too this was a fine read ^^

➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★☆ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★☆ ※ i really wanted to rate this 5 stars but the plot was a bit predictable like it was your typical kidnapping the MC while threatening him and suddenly the ML will save him something like that :> also i just find the scene where mikagi brings umi to azuma very uncomfortable bc that was like attempted forced rape lol but as the story went on their development got better and mikagi genuinely feel for umi <3 i also love the connection they have esp with their own personal "flaws" that they now see as their reason to live >< this is probably one of my faves when it comes to the ending bc i really felt the emotions on the last panels for chapter 5 ♡ it had a heartwarming end >< umi is such a precious babie <33 i will protect him with all my life pls >< his mermaid mark didn't even look that bad he didn't deserve the hate and pain :(( i love how mikagi constantly compliments him and says that hes very cute & pretty ㅠㅠ mikagi is a good ML though the first part (the scene i mentioned above) was really unnecessary but he turned into a good ML so yea i ended up liking him <33 azuma seems like a nice person too for helping them ^^ nishiki and kuro are the cutest >< i love their contrasting personalities~ they're such good guardians, very cute & funny too overall this was good ^^ i liked the unique set-up since i haven't read that much mermaid themed bl esp a mermaid paired with a shaman (i think thats what mikagi is ??) their pairing was very interesting and they ended up being a wholesome and adorable couple the pacing was a bit fast for me but i still felt their connection and how their feelings grew so i still liked it ❣️ the conflict was meh, pretty overused concept but everything ended well and justice was served so i'm pretty satisfied with how it turned out <33 i really wish umi being pregnant was real though >< but they're still pretty adorable so its fine hehe~ i'm glad that they now can happily live far from the main village (not that far) i really love how mikagi's tattoo turned out !! its so pretty esp with nishiki and kuro at the back pls the art style is pretty in general hehe ❣️ this was a good read !!

this was pretty cute ^^ i just love concepts of single dads or just guys with kids getting into a relationship pls its always so wholesome and adorable with the kids >< i was slightly of confused abt how rika lied to sakaguchi abt their child lol it took me a second to realize she was implying that shota wasn't actually sakaguchi's child but they still got married and eventually divorced~ that shows how much of a kind person sakaguchi is, even though he knew shota wasn't his, he still took care of him and even got married to rika for the sole purpose of parenting ^^ i'm glad sakaguchi finally got the chance to experience real love with michi >< i just wished we got to see more of them esp how sakaguchi's feeling grew for michi bc it was mostly on michi's pov and we know that sakaguchi is michi's first love so of course his feelinga for him have already been there for a long time, but as for sakaguchi i think it was a bit sudden (?) like not really but we didn't get to see much of how it developed so yea i needed more connection but other than that this was nice :> there were some unnecessary scenes in between that didn't feel much important but the overall plot was okay ^^ shota is so adorable pls i love how he always wants michi to be with them and he even supports his feelings for sakaguchi >< such a precious babie ♡ i wish we got to see more of them after being officially together :'< but the ending was so cute esp the extra where shota was asking abt the calendar pls it was so funny and adorable at the same time ㅠㅠ also the art style is pretty i like classic manga styles ^^ this was a good read !!

this had a lot of drama yet its still so wholesome and adorable

i must admit this was a pretty cute one ^^ i usually don't like reading books that have a long series after but i got pretty hooked on them bc of how adorable and sweet they are to each other >< though i rated it 4 stars bc i didn't like the noncon at the start and i didn't like how ikkun just suddenly ripped hana's clothes at the bar and even punched him that other time idk it just didn't sit right with me, but other than that the moments after they finally got together were all wholesome and sweet so i enjoyed it <3 the plot's not my cup of tea but i'm in it for their cute dynamic ^^ i like the crossdressing part and their pairing but its just the first part that threw me off~ anyway i'm looking forward to reading the other books in this series :D this was pretty enjoyable and i also like hana's friends :> they seem pretty nice and funny ^^ i love this pair's dynamic bc they're comedic and i just love seeing 2 opposites be together with each other :)) the art style is pretty too ^^ i love their chibis this was a good read !!

i'm quite in the middle for this one :/ i love their relationship and how cute they are but the plot just threw me off i don't think the noncon thing (between shouta and ikkun) that happened was necessary for this story, also there were a lot of small conflicts but it wasn't that annoying since they (ikkun and hana) communicate right after so its fine :)) the intense scene between hana and shouta was so good though like i really enjoyed seeing feisty hana claiming his man >< i love how he singlehandedly handled two descendants of a yakuza girlboss things anyway, there were also parts where i feel like the characters change personalities ?? i mean its probably normal irl but idk i just feel like there were parts that didn't make sense to me (why that character is acting that way) overall i still love hana and ikkun's relationship, they're two idiots that are madly inlove with each other <33 i love their humour and how they act like best friends at times ^^ i wish we got to see more dating life since this mostly focused with the MCs being with other characters but its fine i still enjoyed it :> i love their domesticity esp seeing hana wear those cute aprons hehe it fits him so well >< the art's pretty too and as usual i love their chibis esp when hana's angry this was a good read !!

this was pretty good and unique esp with pole dancing as the center of its plot, but i think it was a bit confusing ^^ i had to reread some parts a couple of times for me to fully understand but tbh there's still some parts that are a bit confusing but it was still a pretty good read !! the plot was very deep and quite dark though we didn't really get to see an in-depth explanation of both their pasts esp kou's father but it gave the story a bittersweet feel :> i also love how pole dancing was portrayed as art and how passionate the MCs are abt it :)) i think their development was quite fast ?? i understand why kou and nagisa fell for each other but there just wasn't much connection for me so yeaaa~ but i still found them sweet and i'm happy that they spread their wings and go on a larger stage <33 i also love their colleagues, they're so fun and nice esp their boss :D overall this was a pretty deep one~ i really wanted to give it 5 stars bc of how unique and interesting the story is, but i just needed more connection from them also i wanted more explanation and stuff hehe :> the art style is very pretty though !! this was a good read !!
