Yane's manga / #Yaoi(479)

My rating: 9,6/10 This makes me tear up. It's so sad and beautiful, 2 lonely souls yearning for love finding and saving each other. They're so different and yet so similar. The seme's story in particular is tragic. The art is top-notch. ASSASSIN, BLIND 5 years ago, the seme's brother died in front of his eyes bc the seme couldn't fulfill his mission and kill the target like his father wanted. He still can't forget the nearly blind boy (uke) who took his hands without realising what was going on back then. Since then, he hasn't been able to kill anybody. But one day, he meets the boy again. And he can't help but get close to him.

My rating: 8/10 It's an enjoyable read with a bit of drama, a bit of comedy and a cute romance (I u count that rapey stuff at the beginning out). The seme's a playboy yakuza boss and really eccentric ready to enjoy life. The uke's a normie, really cute. YAKUZA, TAXI DRIVER After saving a wounded man who entered his taxi by helping him escape, the man comes to the uke again declaring that he will repay him. He turns out to be a yakuza boss. After the uke doesn't react to the prostitutes he brought, the seme takes him upstairs and has sex with him instead. Since then, the uke has to accompany him on various (scary) occasions.

My rating: 8/10 I like the drama, these intense and conflicted emotions make it interesting, wanting to know when the uke will find out keeps u going. The ending is too rushed tho and so the seme had a rapid change of character bc of a 5-year time skip. The art's beautiful. HISTORICAL, REVENGE 10 years ago the seme's parents were killed and his village burned down by the king bc the king's mistress hid there with her son (uke). Years later, the prince (uke) comes to him without recognising him searching for herbs to heal his friend. The seme decides to take revenge and kill him.

My rating: 3/10 It's ridiculous and unrealistic, the yakuza doesn't work like that and there's no s&m either. It's entertaining tho, like trash TV. The seme's possessive and jealous and the chapters are short so it's over quickly. YAKUZA, HOUSE KEEPER The uke wants to resign bc he gets exploited but when he enters the director's office, he meets yakuza collecting debt. The director takes the chance and offers him to their leader (seme) in exchange for more time revealing that the uke's gay. That's how he ends up as the seme's house keeper.

My rating: 5/10 It's alright, entertaining but simple, not memorable. The ukes of the first and third story are cute (but naive) and the second uke is stronger. All 3 stories have the popular seme x normal uke trope. I don't like the second seme. HOST, POPULAR SEME 1) The owner of a host bar (seme) pays the uke's debt for him in exchange for the uke working there bc he's his type. 2) The most popular playboy host tries to make his colleague his. 3) The seme goes to a matchmaking service but refuses all his partners bc he just wants to meet the worker assigned to him (uke)

My rating: 8,6/10 This is a piece of art portraying the feeling of forbidden longing in truly aesthetic and beautiful way. It's all about beauty and its inspiration for an artist. They're both possessive but manage to find a better life together. TATOO, ARTIST, MUSE A young tatoo artist (seme) gets commissioned to transfer a popular artist's painting onto the man's beautiful muse and model (uke). The seme can't help but feel drawn to him, but the uke belongs to the artist.

My rating: 8/10 I really like the message: "Too many easy lies can make people lose trust in you". The seme slowly realising that and him changing bc he becomes attached is satisfying. Ut the regret is too short, it's kinda a rushed ending. POPULAR SEME, LIES An office worker (seme) goes through life lying to make things easier. One day, at a party with students from his former university, he meets a student (uke) he likes. He tries to flirt him up like usual but the boy sees through him. He agrees to go out with him for 1 month and then decide whether to stay or not.

My rating: 9,5/10 The way the author portrays the world on the brink of destruction, the emotional turmoil and the regret the characters experience and how all this makes them find together captures me. The seme was an ass, but that makes it more interesting for me. METEOR, SUICIDAL In 10 days, the world will be destroyed by a meteor. The uke decides to spend his last days in the library but meets his ex (seme) from college there who cheated on him. The seme offers to give him a drug granting a painless death in exchange for him helping him dispose of a corpse. SPOILER: The "corpse" is still alive. He's a student who wanted to die. The seme tested the drug on him bc he actually wanted to commit suicide himself. Even though he's rich, his business failed, he regrets not helping his friend before her suicide and also misses the uke. They end up trying to take the student home before the end and meet the younger brother of the seme's dead friend (she was an idol). The brother crossdresses. They change their destination bc the student was a huge fan of the idol and wants to hp her siblings get home. Over time, they grow close and the uke and the seme get back together. In the end, the meteor doesn't hit the earth.

My rating: 7,5/10 The art is top-notch and the plot is simple but written in a way that makes it funny. It's a bit sad tho that the arrogant omega never tells the alpha that he loves him. The alpha on the other side is overly possessive. It's really short so it's kinda rushed. FRIENDS TO LOVERS, MARRIAGE An omega comes back to Korea from America to receive money from his father. But instead, he finds himself marrying his childhood friend who somehow turned into an handsome alpha?! But wait, he doesn't wanna stop playing around with alphas!

My rating: 7,5/10 I'm no fan of blackmail plots but this one isn't so bad. The Dom's controlling and possessive love is shown as something that can drive people away, that's refreshing. The Sub is good-hearted but also speaks his mind. The smut is rather vanilla for a sub/domverse. AGE GAP, TEACHER, ROOMMATES A teacher suppressed his sub traits but then his fiancee leaves and his plans crumble. He meets up with a dom he found on a dating app, but the guy turns out to be his former student who blackmails him into letting him stay in his apartment after they hook up.
