Rift (Conro)
its pretty good !! i liked the plot <3 do i think that what natsuki did was wrong, absolutely. but out of all the rape stuff that i read, natsuki's was the one that i understand ig ?? like not in the sense of excusing his actions but what im saying is that i understand where he was coming from and why he did that, but i still wont condone him for what he did !!! i also felt like the pacing was kind of fast but im glad that it all worked out in the end it wasnt that angsty which i liked bc i cant handle too much angst overall i liked it <3 the plot felt kind of new to me since i dont think i've ever read something like this so it might be a first :D the development of their relationship felt fast but it went pretty smooth :) im glad that natsuki got closure with his dad ㅠㅠ im glad that hes slowly accepting his father's death and is starting to let go of his trauma (?) bit by bit i really love the last panel, it had a lot of emotions in it ^^ i admired yuni's determination, he never gave up on natsuki and he forgave him for what he did before :> im very happy for them i wanted to see more of them but im pretty satisfied with the ending <3 the art looks pretty too good read !!
Boku-tachi wa Mada Aoku
im absolutely inlove with this ㅠㅠ they are so freaking adorable im so sad i really love their dynamic <3 literally one of my faves !! their relationship is so wholesome and adorable a literal serotonin boost pls ╥﹏╥ the development of their relationship felt so natural and cute <3 the plot is all about them falling inlove !! there werent any conflicts and it was all fluffy ❣ i really recommend this if you just want a sweet, adorable, and happy love story <3 also the way their classmates act are so rare in bl mangas, like i've never seen such classmate who applogizes for something they did wrong, a lot of bl mangas have a lot of violent classmates but in this one all of them are pretty nice and they didnt judge them at all !!! overall im inlove with this story its a very common plot with unique elements in it hehe <3 one of the cutest and softest school life bl the pacing of their relationship was natural as well as the development :D i love saegusa's personality and character, idk but he looks very stern and nonchalant but hes actually very observant esp with the things he loves (exhibit a: arochi) i love the fact that he never forced his feelings for arochi, he waited until he was ready and he didnt do anything to him when he was defenseless, i really respect him for that as for arochi, i also love his personality >< hes very precious ❣ hes a softie ^^ i didnt expect him to have such an adorable and sweet personality hehe <3 i love smart characters so that adds more to his charm they fit so well with each other i just love how healthy and wholesome their relationship is !! apparently theres a volume 2 so im very excited for that bc i wanna see more of them at and after college ackkk <3 the art style is pretty great read !!
December Rain
this is so good !!! literally bawled my eyes out, esp listening to the songs while reading omfg this shit hurt ㅠㅠ if im being honest there wasnt any complicated twists in the plot but i loved it ngl i was taken aback at what suchae did at the beginning bc that was dubcon and idk what he was thinking but ig thats how they relationship started the pacing's fast but it felt natural to me, i felt their love for each other since they only have the both of them <3 the story had some plot holes like we didnt get the full picture of what happened with the murder (1988 dismemberment), we didnt get a clear look at suchae's family situation, we didnt get to see what happened to k and if there was other ppl involved in the murder, etc. but i still felt satisfied with the ending !! im really glad the author gave us a happy ending ㅠㅠ im glad that they found each other once again and are living a happy life together :( i think the part that hurt the most was with the grandma idk why but it hurt a lot ╥﹏╥ i love how the author portrayed the fucked up justice system, it was very accurate !! the funny thing is that i support the good cop but at the same time i didnt want gusam to be caught so i had mixed feelings the plot was very realistic, other author's would've made a way so that the MC and ML wouldn't get caught or write some reasons as to why they didnt commit the murder, but here we saw that they clearly did a crime which they cannot escape so i think the ending was very fitting if they really wanted to be together :( i mean technically it was self defense but of course the police wont eat that shit so ( ̄へ  ̄) overall i love this story, it made me feel a ton of stuff ~ it kept me hooked while reading and i really felt the couple's connection !! the desperation and emotion in every chapter is amazing we didnt get to see much of gusam's personality since he was too traumatized and disheveled but i think hes a caring and sweet person esp when we got to see them at the end :D he seems like a very reliable guy !! as for suchae, hes a sweetheart ^^ i love him <3 he has a very bright and optimistic personality hes very thoughtful and kind, hes precious ❣ i love their dynamic, i wish we got to see more of their relationship in the modern times but im happy with what we got i was actually avoiding reading this bc i dont read that much angst, my heart cant take stuff like this but this is a masterpiece !! a must read :) this shows you what a desperately inlove person would do for their partner :> i love the grandma, shes an absolute angel i hope that they could also see her in the modern times :( really loved this read :D it was hell of a ride it leaves you with the question of what actually happened on September 17, 1988 ?? im glad i got to read this amazing story the art looks amazing too suchae and gusam in the modern world look stunning such a worth read !!
Sensual Reminder
i liked this but it was kind of confusing the end felt rushed and a bit lacking, i wanted to feel more of their connection and idk what happened to the jealous guy ?? he suddenly just disappeared jshdjdjjd overall the plot's unique, i havent read something like this but i think the execution could've been better (but who am i to criticize, this is just an opinion) i love this author's mangas and i do like this but it just needed a little more push to give it 5 stars hehe i think the couple's cute ^^ also i was kinda confused if they were living together now ?? they looked so domestic and adorable i wanted to see more of their relationship after they became officially lovers but that ending was cute ❣ the art looks amazing <3 all the characters look stunning also i love lucas' mom shes a queen good read !!
ISHIBASHI DEFENSE CORPS INDIVIDUAL
this was such a fun and light read !! they were so funny and adorable i love them <3 the end felt kind of rushed ?? well not really but i felt like it was incomplete, i wanted to see more of them ^^ i feel like this story needs a volume 2 or at least more extras ~ but other than that i loved it the plot's quite new to me since i havent read this dynamic before but i liked it <3 i love haruna's personality, he looks like a tough guy but hes actually a softie (but only to wataru ) i love how he treasures wataru, he never did attacked him and he always respected him >< he never pushed his feelings to wataru, but he also didnt hide his feelings :D i love him ♡ as for wataru, hes such a sweetheart ㅠㅠ hes a babie okay :( so precious !!! hes such a kind person, i like the fact that he never got jealous of haruna's success, he only admired him and supported him in everything he did he was also a very open-minded person when sakura told him abt his partner !! idk what else to say but haruna's definitely an angel ❣ overall i love the plot, its simple yet fun and enjoyable to read !! its a cute love story <3 the development of their relationship felt natural and had a slow pace which i liked i love the humour in this story it gave me a serotonin boost >< i've been reading this author's works and im liking a lot of them so far hehe <3 i love their art style as well it looks so pretty good read !!
Umi To Futari No Enbun Noudo
i liked this <3 idk theres something abt bl mangas with a setting like this ~ it has a melancholic feel to it but it also feels romantic and sentimental the plot's pretty simple and common but i love the characters <3 im obsessed with long haired characters ㅠㅠ i also love younger semes hihi :D overall the plot's pretty good ❣ im glad that naoki finally realized his feelings and fully accepted ryuuta !! im happy that he finally got to move on :> i love ryuuta's personality, hes determined but he never pushed his feelings towards naoki i love that he respected naoki and never took advantage of him <3 the pacing of their relationship felt natural and i really felt their connection i love the timeskip extra >< im glad that theyre both happy together <3 ngl i wanted to see more of them but i was satisfied with the wholesome ending the art looks amazing as usual the police officers were fun characters i love them also i love how supportive the police friend is with their relationship !! good read <3
Kimiiro Eden
this is pretty good <3 i think that there were confusing parts ?? i felt like there were some missing pages for some reason idk but maybe its a me problem since im reading this at 2am anyway, i still liked it its been awhile since i've read a slow paced manga :> the plot's cute and simple, it had bits of drama but overall its pretty fluffy ~ i love yuu's dads, i want a story abt them too hihi ^^ theyre so cute and fun <3 i also love the fact that yoshinori wasnt a mean brother, he actually respects iga !! ig the father wanted iga to have freedom and not take the burden of the company but he was misunderstood since he said it in a harsh way so im glad they got closure abt that issue ^^ overall the plot's good :D the development of their relationship felt natural and the pacing was slow which i liked i love the couple's dynamic <3 though i wanted to see more of them dating >< the end was pretty cute ❣ i didnt expect the 10 year age gap, i love it im so happy for them <3 im glad that iga finally got to love someone the art style is beautiful, i love this author's art good read !!
Gelateria Supernova
this might be one of my new faves omg !!! im so obsessed with this story >< it has everything that i prolly wanted in a bl manga i really love that the author gave us one volume that shows how the couple's relationship developed and another volume showing their progress and life as an official couple ngl sex friends trope arent my cup of tea, but this is so good !! it had a melancholic vibe at the beginning that slowly turned into a very fluffy and wholesome feel i love that we got to see their character development esp naoki's, since he wasnt really the type to express his feelings and he doesnt get attached to the ppl that he dates, im glad that he finally found the person who he finds comfort in ㅠㅠ i love that naoki was more clingy, i find it adorable ❣ i love tomo's straightforward yet shy personality <3 ig he was the type to be nonchalant (?) idk if thats the right word to describe his attitude at the beginning ?? he was the type to not care that much abt their relationship (idk how to explain it but what im trying to say is that he just thought of the relationship as something normal ig, like he didnt really give it a special meaning, not until he finally realized his feelings for naoki hihi ) i love that we clearly saw the couple's growth and how their love for each other deepened as the years went by ☹️ i really love mangas that has time skips ㅠㅠ i love that we get to see how the couple are doing after being together for years :D i also love how the author incorporated gelato in the way they relayed the couple's love story, idk why but theres something abt food being used as a metaphor for love hihi ^^ overall im inlove with this manga !!! literally deserves a higher rating >< the plot's quite common but it was executed in an amazing way !! i love the atmosphere of the story, i personally felt the emotions and got connected with the characters all the characters are lovable, there werent any unnecessary drama, all the conflicts that were included helped the couple grow and build trust for each other i also love how supportive their friends are !! i also liked that we got to see the side characters' lives, like how tomo's boss got married and had a baby, as well as naoki's coworker :D i just love how the author paid attention to all the characters, even the side characters idk what else to say hsjshsh this is a masterpiece i'll gladly reread this <3 almost forgot to mention but i love naoki, hes such a nice, sweet, respectful, and caring ML everyone needs a naoki !! anyway i had a sweet time reading this ^^ so wholesome and fluffy the art style is stunning as well this is a hidden gem, very worth reading ❣
