Sun-ken Rock

Complete | boichi | 2000 released

Complete Vol 21 Ch 171 Ken has such wonderful convictions. Taeseo has some good ideology that I can get behind. Governments are just socially acceptable gangs. (Ch 13) I am in love. This was great. A little sad that Yumi and Ken couldn’t live together as a power couple but he continued to love her. Taesoo says “Aniki” there are the end so you can really only assume that Ken is dead. Yet even in death, Taesoo is loyal to Ken and his conviction. I am satisfied despite the end just going into hyper speed. Drawing it out would have been too much. No happy ending, but a good ending nonetheless. (Ch 171)

Sex suruyori Hazukashii Koto

Complete | Taino nikke | 2019 released

Complete ch 6.5 I have concerns. For starters, the relationship between Akira and Sora. Sora has a mass amount of restrictions on the way that he lives during his private life, seemingly more than contractual restrictions for idols and others in the entertainment industry. Clearly those restrictions are put in place by Akira. Sora also has memories of someone having him in a missionary position and saying, “just close your eyes it will be over soon.” This other person can only be assumed to be Akira which would be whatever until Akira said that he saw Sora as a brother. Then bringing in Haru, Sora has strange reactions to things that Haru does. He’s obviously comfortable around Haru and seems to feel some kind of possessiveness towards Haru, which is seen when Take shows up. Akira saying he’s interested in signing Haru got a clear reaction from Sora, but I can’t say for certain who Sora is being possessive of. Not enough is known about Sora, Sora knows too much about sex for the typical artist that doesn’t seem interested in others or having awareness of their emotions, Haru might really be getting scammed again, and there is apparently only one more chapter! (Ch 5) Well. Okay, I guess. (Ch 6.2)

Kami-sama no Ekohiiki

Complete | Komura Ayumi | 2000 released

Complete Vol 5 Ch 27.5 I had a lot of swinging opinions about this while reading and where I’ve landed is, it’s amazing. It shows a lot of what I would love to see more of in media. People struggling with their sexuality, not realizing you’re in love, embracing a romantic relationship without sex involved, relationships not working out because of gender reasons, and ultimately becoming at peace with your life choices. Fuck me up. Kami-sama was also top notch. Me if I was a deity. (Ch 27.5)

Yours to Claim

Complete | WAJE, ZZIN-BAM | 2000 released

Last ch 48 Whenever he’s surprised he looks like a startled cat, it’s so cute. (Ch 6) Wow, Yahwi laughing and finally an introduction of our second potential end game. I am prepping myself for more cute moments! (Ch 11) Yahwi’s learned philosophy that has been beaten into him is like Isamu’s. Different note, I’m ready to learn more about Cain! Give me more of that stupid blond boy! (Ch 17) Fuuuck! Jealous and possessive Yahwi is super yummy! It’s super cute when he starts biting Jooin to mark his territory. The next real journey will be how Yahwi acts once they are back in Korea. He’s acting desperate now but if that’s going to continue, we will have to see. There will be a change of attitude to some degree but I can’t speak for how much of a difference it’s going to be. Very excited. (Ch 27) Yahwi you fucking moron. I get it, I understand it, but still. Even his friend thinks he’s being an idiot! Everyone but Jooin and Yahwi knows that Yahwi is in love. Cain is real sweet, a total puppy dog who is just trying to protect his most precious master. I do want to know about Jooin and Yahwi’s family, or whatever that scene was. They haven’t touched it since so I’m left in the dust. (Ch 48)

Tada Massugu ni Kimi o Omou

Complete extra I was excited for the actual love triangle but then it turned out to be boring. Shocker, Yuuji and Kana would end up together. Whatever.

Innocent Bird

Complete | KISARAGI Hirotaka | 2002 released

Complete Vol 3 I mark this down on the basis that religious overtones in stories just aren’t my jam.

Not a Sugar Daddy

Complete | Pyapya | 2017 released

Last ch 64 I super didn’t remember what happened during this. I got it mixed up with Fools. Which only makes me want to reread Fools. (Ch 36) If you don’t communicate then of course things are going to end up like this! Morons! They love each other so much it’s actually getting in the way. It proves to be unhealthy because their fights drag on for way too long. This is also the third breakup scene. (Ch 59)

Blood Bank

Complete | silb | 2015 released

Complete ch 61.5 I think I enjoyed this more the second time around. What also really gets me is Eric and Shell reinventing BDSM rules with the use of safe words and after care. It makes my heart swell with joy to see proper dom/sub dynamics, both healthy and unhealthy. Eric’s contacts are never explained. Where the fuck did he get them?! Where did he get cleaning solution for them?! I feel like I’m the only one that cares about that but damnit! I care!
