I Thought It Was Time!
Aaahh! I absolutely adore this manhwa. The ML is a puppy with a lot of insecurities and abandonment issues, and the MC is a pretty girl who is talented in healing magic and who is misdiagnosed with an incurable disease (will only live for 3 months supposedly). But it was good in the long run, since it gave her the push it needed to leave her abusive family and find happiness for herself. She has a bunch of things she wants to do in her bucket list, one of which was to have a lover. That lover turns out to be the cursed Duke. The Duke is a good person in general, but with the MC endearing personality and her warm actions, he starts to like her after pushing her away. They deal with miscommunication but it is resolved relatively soon with the MC's efforts. And things like sex are being said freely so I was a bit taken aback at first. Also the ML's insecurities is totally valid since his curse makes his skin rotten so he avoids skinship. He cares deeply for the MC so he tries to abide by the rules of the dating book given by his butler, one of which was to take things slow since their partner might be bored and also not to be too jealous. The latter I was pleasantly surprised by since the ML in other manhwas are not as considerate and have been jealous for milder reason. Here the priest is straight up like 'I'mma steal your girl'. The priest is the next pope to be because of the immense holy power he possess that is unique and powerful. So he gets surprised when the MC can heal him because only someone of the same level can heal another person, thereby speaking of the capability of the MC. He only sees her as someone to be used initially but later grows fond of her and tries to seduce her but to no avail. Then, he resigns to his fate somewhat and admits to himself that the MC is looking at someone else even as she is with him. The two leads are not as yandere as I am familiar with and that's a good thing (don't get me wrong). What more, the ML was cursed when he was a child and the mage who cursed him has since died so it is that much harder to cure him. The priest came from a humble background so there is a senior priest that is bitter that he gets to be the pope. The MC's family is trash, her older brother is jealous of her for her talent (she has an immense mana and powerful magic). Her parents didn't allow her to train but a trainer found it wasteful to leave it be so they trained her in secret. That's it for now. Currently upto Ch28.
The Law Of Being Friends With A Male
Oh this was just lovely. A joy to read. It cleanses my soul and makes me squeal. First love really hits different, reminds me of how I felt reading 'Eleanor and Park'. The comedy was done so tastefully and is a parody of sorts, it also breaks the third wall constantly. Also, I love that Bora is such a cool person and I love the MC's first meeting with her sister. She just stood on the swing with someone on it. I wonder tho how Jay mistook her crush to be Seohyun. Seohyun is an adorable puppy. Jay is a social butterfly but sets his lines properly. Bora is a relatable queen. I also live for Soyeon's loyalty to her bestie, she also made a move after she was certain that MC liked Seohyun now. But I have one problem.. The cliffhanger? I don't want him to misunderstand the situation. I hope that the author won't drag this out, based on the past chapters that doesn't seem to be the case since it was resolved through communication and confrontation so I'm not too worried. And also the rizz on Seohyun? When he suggested that Jay should ask Bota for matching phone cover.. I'm like boyyyy. Anyway I like that he's not one dimensional. My sister (whom I read this with) mentioned that the MC's love language was act of service and the ML physical touch. Man they are too cute!!!
The Tyrant Wants To Live Honestly
I guess she is starting to appreciate Ethan a bit more. The Emperor is just a douchebag, talking about honour and what not. What did the Queen see in him? You know what.. I hate her as well. Blaming a child for something that they cannot control, many people die in childbirth especially considering the times they live in so what's the deal? The art style is a bit too childish for my taste but I like it nevertheless. I like that the princess is slowly coming to terms that she is not the worst person like she seems to think she is and is embracing her new life. I wished she didn't quit her swordsmanship training tho. Also the crown prince is so dumb.. I don't hate him but u can only be so dumb that you don't understand why your sister wouldn't want to meet that son of a bitch Emperor. Theo is fine.. I guess. I like that the story didn't revolve too much around Theo and Dorothea too much. The maid and the knight make a cute couple.
Rainbow City
I actually like this. If it were another manhwa, the seme would be a turn off for me but the way he acted got me wondering..why is he like this? Also he is evolved and since this is a world after the age of man filled with zombies.. I could understand why the ML is so unhinged. We can't use our common sense in their world, I didn't like him rubbing his stinky ass dick on our pretty MC's mouth but whatever. I knew something was suspicious because they insisted on him being his guard even though the MC has said twice that he wanted a different one. Also him being sent to the garden or some shit for drinking was a bit strange for me but I pushed it aside since I thought they probably didn't think much of it(the writer) and I considered it to be a typical yaoi. But a lot of thought is going into making this manhwa, like them putting the ML(the strongest person) by the MC's side and them keeping an eye out for him, like the higher ups are definitely shady people. The doctor who got killed must be an inside job but what's up with the MC's dream? I want to know all the info.. Like I am invested! Also I don't think the MC lacks emotions, I think he is just a stoic person who never interacted much with others, also he is a mutant and mutants are usually obsessed with something.. In his case 'stones'. Him being called 'Dr Stone' made me wonder if it was a shoutout to the anime/manga 'Dr Stone' but it turned out to be a play on words. I'm also glad that there is more to the ML, like he seems to be super serious in the scene where he looked over that Dr. Oh and our MC and he has access to the Top Class secret so...
Betrayal of Dignity
I am in love with this, when I tell you this is my new obsession!! Ah! I love the characters so much from Chloe to Damien to servant boy and her dad. This is my first time reading a manhwa centered around a disabled MC but I am enjoying every moment of it. To those people calling the MC weak, are u fucking dumb!!? This girl is the strongest female MC I have encountered in a minute! She has quick wits, graceful, dignified, kind and stubborn yet knows when to bend her knees. She is so refreshing, I wish she didn't spoil her little sister so much that she gets pregnant leaving her sister and father in complete ruin but she is the ideal elder sister so heyy no blaming. I love how she responds to every situation and matches the ML by butting heads with him every time they meet. The sister.. I don't want to waste my breath talking about her. The servant boy is such a nice person, he knew where he stood and did not cross the line. He even lied in court for her and what amazed me was that he went to the Duke to clear things up without even thinking about himself even once. The Duke is such an interesting character, he has so many sides to him. I don't hate him, in fact I like him. He does like the MC but she isn't the only thing on his mind. He is a very ambitious man aiming for the throne tho I don't blame him..the crown prince will only bring ruin if he ascends the throne. I got a bad vibe from him when I saw his interaction with Chloe, like the way he touched her shoulders wasn't very gentlemanly and the way his eyes sparkled when Chloe was being stubborn and asking him to take back his apologies made me feel a bit iffy. The Duke's mom was a nice character that subverted my expectations of someone of her stature. I expected her to be uptight, smart, and rule with an iron fist but this woman stupid as hell. Her getting angry at Chloe for pointing out that her two faithful servants had been stealing from them and not accepting it. Her being so cheerful and totally defenseless was quite a shock. The reveal was phenomenal! He set her up so she feels indebted to him and to manipulate her feelings for him. And it was executed so splendidly! I mean she was just unlucky but for him to ask his subordinate when he felt loyalty towards him and his answer was when he saved him so he played the role and now she is starting to like him. He has always been interested in her and I feel there is something behind him choosing her other than his fascination towards her but I like him being constantly impressed by how Chloe navigates through the traps or tests he sets for her and her coming on top every single time.
Housekeeper in a Dungeon
I fucking love this. This is great. I love the MC, I love the brother and I love the ML. This is so wholesome. I like that she makes do with what she has and is so normal, no trying to be cool or too curt. She's a normal average citizen of a society. No quirkiness or anything. I like the puppy ML, how he becomes talkative when he's drunk etc. I like his brother too, the complete opposite of him.. Organised, responsible, very put together.. I like how everyone adores the MC. Also the way this author writes the female characters..Chef's kiss mwah.. The CEO is a woman.. The team leader is a woman(I thought she was a man at first)..and no underlying message that just because a woman has a job, she's a bad person/sister/wife and has bad personality etc.. Nice female representation..
Turning
This is so intriguing. I love it, I love the MC and I love the ML. I also love his friends and how the MC unintentionally lit a spark amongst the awakened who thought their talents to be useless. I also like the way the MC utilises his knowledge of the first timeline and efficiently manages things and leaves nothing to chance. Someone in the comment section also pointed out that the MC is an unreliable narrator so I'm hella excited for that, and what it entails. I Their chemistry is top tier, I live for their dynamic.. I wonder why he killed him in the first timeline. So far the characters are top notch. The crown prince annoys the living shit out of me but other than that.. All good
I Raised My Fiancé with Money
I love love looove this!! Obsessed actually! I love the bear Karlan, I live for his demure self. He's so huggable and comfortable and soft.. All things good. In contrast we have Ilya with her sharp tongue, business acumen and loveliness. I love them together. I hate that the ex fiance resembles my Cale saur much, that I can't hate him fully.. Ugh.. My Cale!! I love Ilya's family.. The daddy being a pudgy man with a deep appreciation for art and getting along so well with Karlan is chef's kiss. The mom is more strict and rigid but I love her temperament. The older brother is of course a siscon, him and his glasses will be the death of me I swear! I don't want to talk about Karlan's family.. I hate his mom, dad and elder brother. Even getting the spoilers that the mom treats him that way because of the brother's intervention doesn't ease the blow one bit. What a horrible human being.. He's a child. Even if you think he stole your jewellery or put a dead bird in your drawers, you should fucking talk to him. U have my boy a complex. He thinks he's ugly! He feels guilty over the most minor things and his insecurities are eating him up.. Ugh I hate them..
Private Call
It's okay ig..The art style isn't my cup of tea neither the plot. Everything is fast paced and things just happen...there's really no build up for it. The pink haired twink omega...so what else is new? The characters are also really ugly...sorry not sorry...ig the ML's past is kinda interesting with the tutor and his brother. I AGREE that he never liked the tutor,he just came to care for her and was mad that his brother was using her to one up him. The family is trash. Ch14.
