3OO8's manga / #Manhua/Manhwa(11)

I binge read this and honestly it was very “meh” to me. It was pretty wholesome and cute at the start and the development was a slow burn, but I love slow burns so I enjoyed seeing them develop and re confession was rewarding but that’s where the wholesome stuff ended. After they got together their chemistry went rlly badly downhill, and all the angst just felt like it was there for the sake of stretching out the story. To the point where it felt like Minho (the main character) should just break up with Junoh. He didn’t tell him/ let him on in anything and just left Minho in the dark. It just felt like it would’ve been better if they broke up and got with different people. Also all the male characters who had unrequited love with Junoh was absurd. They rlly didn’t not need to have it in the story. The ending also felt weirdly rushed so it didn’t give a satisfying ending/ any closure. To give some perspective on how much they unnecessarily stretched the story, they got together at around chapter 40 and the series has 84 chapters. I wouldn’t have minded if it was focused on another couple etc. the main characters best friend or sister, but it was just 44 chapters showcasing how bad their relationship/ communication was. It didn’t need to be as long as it was and some of the choices the author made was HEAVILY unnecessary. Overall it’s just a 5-6/10. The first half was great but the second half just sucked. It was disappointing with an unsatisfying ending.

Why is this a one shot??? WHY ISN'T THIS A 100 CHAPTER SLICE OF LIFE SERIES????? I would pay millions to get this serialised. I love this wayyyy too much. Atleast it’s a pretty long read. 8-9/10

Not much to say about this one. It was average at best, boring at worst. 6/10

A pretty interesting manhua with a decent plot. I can’t write much about it but it’s a decent read and the plot is interesting enough that you’ll keep reading. Easily able to be binged. 6-7/10

Honestly like 15x better than I thought. I read this ages ago and they just released new offical chapters from tapas. Really happy it’s completed and I just saw that it was a Korean drama?? Either way a really good wholesome story. Highly recommend 8-9/10

Just realised I never wrote a review for this story but I think the 5 stars says it all. It’s in my top 10 bl’s for a reason, the characters are well fleshed out and interesting, the premise is fun and engaging and its overall one of the best bl’s I’ve ever read. It made my Monday’s better and I was sad to see it end. Wish they made the side stories as this was based on a novel but apparently the side stories were mature so I’m guessing the artist wasn’t comfortable with drawing it which is completely understandable and I’m kinda happy they didn’t stem into making it yaoi. I just wish we could see it continue with maybe the side characters finding out they’re dating or the main character meeting with his high school friend again and talking (but his friend sucked so idk how that would turn out.) but it was overall really good, HIGHLY recommend. 100/10

Pretty good start, kinda wished it was a slow burn but yeah didn’t really expect it from yaoi. 7-8/10

This was one of my first bl manhuas and it wasn’t bad. I enjoyed reading it but there was nothing to it that emotionally impacted me or made me really think after I finished reading it. Was it good? Yeah it was solid and well written but as I kind of stated, it just wasn’t outstanding. 6-7/10

Don’t really understand why people loved this manhua so much but after reading the comments it was mostly “they’re so silly” “this manhua is so funny” so yeah I guess that’s why. I didn’t mind reading this but it wasn’t my favourite and if I had to give it like a percentage of story to smut it would legitimately be like 35% story and characters and 65% smut. Which is a bit too much for my liking as I prefer more romances that have more development and dialogue between the two leads rather than a bunch of smut scenes that end in them eventually liking each other. To summarise, not bad but not my type of read.
