All About Lust
EXCUSE ME THIS IS THE BEST WEBTOON I HAVE EVER READ. IT HAS THE BEST CHARACTER DEPTH IVE EVER SEEN AND THE DIALOGUE IS SO GOOD IM DYING it says "all about lust" in the title, but it's not even much of that. the way the characters worked around their differences and way everything came into place is wonderful. great read! and i seriously was able to see a bit of myself in most of the characters. characterization is on point. the art isn't very fancy but it's a great mix of pretty and plot.

I've reread this for like 3 times already and I'm planning on rereading again wtf why do I like this so much help me lord sometimes i complain that senpai is too tsundere but you know what he's so sexy so i can't stop reading lmao i get you morinaga (volume 8 is a gold mine, 5 ch2 is some senpai action, 12.6, 13-6 is also hot (edit: actually every 6th chapter of every volume is hot loll)) update: oh god it's 2024 now, volume 15 is so good! looking forward to the confrontation with morinaga's family. souchi is emotionally mature, tho he's still a huge tsundere lol. love how much they've grown. the random sex scene is just fanservice at this point lmao but hey i ain't complaining
You’re My Favorite Toy
where are the rape sjws? this is practically rape and i don't see much complaining? this is manipulation at its finest, and i don't know why yall would think it's cute. after getting forced into submission, that whole "he didn't cum this time, does he have feelings for me" dialogue, is just too stupid. author thinks they can romanticize rape and y'all are taking the bait.
A Prince in a Luxurious Mansion

Seishun Runaway
I love this so much! The story-telling is great, and the characters are all interesting. The way everything unfolded is somewhat unpredictable, which I like. I'd consider this one of my Top 30 but my list is quite cluttered so yeah lol The first couple was adorable. The taller guy is handsome but is really insecure (in an endearing way, not toxic), meanwhile the other guy is charismatic yet elusive. The dynamic is entertaining, and even if the smaller dude is quite sly, you know he's not doing it out of malice. The second couple was a bit out of my league, it's a whole different formula than most of the things I've seen so far. The premise is quite simple: strong, unrequited love since high school (with mild stalker-ish behavior), then reencounter in college. What makes it unique is the glasses character really, the way he thinks is different I can't even explain it. That character feature made their arc unpredictable haha. Though I must say, I wasn't very moved by their part, the resolution wasn't satisfying. Moved too far trying to be unpredictable. Overall I'd rate this a 4.5
Gendai Irozato Tsuya Kobanashi
First story was about a writer who likes writing about old brothels, who met a young kid who had an idealistic vision of the city (the metaphor was that of a caged bird). Idk what to feel.about this one really. I didn't dislike it, but I didn't like it either lol. (and the mangaka loves drawing iced drinks on glasses. kind of weird that theyre always so detailed. perhaps it was a necessary point? like the kid got drugged coz of a drink after all lol) Second story... am i too obsessed with hijikata that im seeing a hijikata x okita au in this one istg. Guy gets his promiscuous friend captive in his house, you can tell he's somewhat guilty but he does it anyway lol. Out of jealousy and insecurity I'm sure. If the first couple was about freeing a caged bird, this one is about caging a wild bird lol. It actually ended up quite well for them. I found it a bit cute, actually lol. (and i don't get how people are saying this is open-ended... what ending are yall fuckers expecting, it's clear as day that they're together)
Tojikometai!
offtopic but dude i rarely see captive mangas but i just saw two of them today. then both mentioned One Piece... i'm freaking out lmao (05.14.20) anyway, second couple is cute. the seme's design is ugh, cool yet gentle-looking *chef's kiss* (spoiler: what a waste he was actually a sadist lmao he was already perfect!) third story: lmao WHAT ON EARTH IS A "PERSON I WANT TO MARRY RANKING" in a goddamn office job LMAO I CANT. omg this shit is hilarious, i love the characters. (this one is the reason for the "good characterization" tag coz they're interesting and entertaining lmao, the most popular guy is so funny). fucking hell this story had so much potential, it was so quick given the one chapter constraint. if given the chance it would've been amazing.
Natsu ni Tokeru Himitsu no Koi
I love this. The twist was so unexpected but it gave me a sigh of relief lmao. I guess dark pasts really are overused that I was creating something scary in my head when it still wasn't revealed. (the dad was still horrible though, may he rot in hell) Anyway, great work! It was fun reading it. The romantic aspect is a bit average, but the flow of the story is great.
