stressedpenguin's manga / #meh(446)

Dropped at ch 53. I cant explain it, but it's like the story is hiding... Characters sometimes reference moments or past drama that I've been expecting to be revealed, but I'm 50 chapters in and it's only ever been hinted at and it feels like at going to be a long long time before anything is clearly explained, if that ever happens. People keep dropping hints and hints and hints that *something* has or is happening, but it's not quite enough. The mystery is good and fun but not at the expense of actually getting to know anyone in this story. Despite supposedly spending all this time in Hyunsoo's head, we still barely know anything about him other than he's got a temper and has violent outbursts. Hyunsoo and Youngchan haven't had a real, in depth conversation despite the number of times they've fought, physically and verbally. I like slow burn relationships where the two characters have to work out their own inner turmoil, but I don't feel like I'm even getting that. The story seems afraid to outright show too much about any of the characters. I dunno. I'm 50 chapters in, and I'd rather just watch everyone here get hit by a bus. I don't like angry, violent, arrogant characters, and I'm talking about Hyunsoo AND Youngchan here, and if we're not going to get any deeper into their heads and pasts (or even presents), then I don't see a reason to stick around. 3/10, for promising me an interesting dynamic and character study but refusing to actually give me those things after FIFTY GODDAMN CHAPTERS

Ch 1-2: delivery workers get curious about gay sex Ch 3-4: a different pair of delivery workers start going out Ch 5: omega tops an alpha Ch 6: guy meets his childhood idol, former wrestler, and lowkey rapes him 4/10 for me on this one

5/10?

Dropped at ch 3. A little friends to lovers story that starts because they keep kissing each other as an joke and then it stops being a joke and romantic feelings are happening Having a hard time getting into this one partly because its older -/10

Hmm. I dunno, both character were pretty frustrating to me but I cant explain why. Also, this is just a personal gripe, but I always get frustrated with mooches but at least Misaki can do housework 4/10, nothing really wrong with it, it just irked by and I cannot explain why

Basically an excuse to do a classic bully x slave dynamic with no charisma. Also for being in an erotic BL game I high key thought there'd be way more fucking Just boring for me so I'll pass 3/10

Fluffy uke had been in love with this guy from high school and even followed him to the same college. Because of reasons, they become sex friends and the uke tries his darndest to be the seme's friend. Then the seme's shitty ex from the past shows up, does some mental damage and inadvertently solves all their problems Kinda... sucked? 4/10

Mmmmm...meh? Didn't feel much for that one. We didn't spend too much meaningful time with anyone, imo, and i just... didn't care. 5/10?

Just two guys being domestic, not a lot happened and I kept expecting to go back to the guy from ch 1 somehow, but this was fine. Overall 5/10

Yeesh these guys were a mess. Ummm okay young dad with a teen son meets a young hot guy at a mixer. Shenanigans happen, they fuck. Seme had a weird dad and dog fetish thing going on that absolutely no one has addressed yet and idk if I'm here for that or what Anyway that was meh for me. Very cliche drama 3/10?
