Kirino feels annoyed by Takase’s admiration for him and views him as a thorn in his side. However, Takase doesn’t even hesitate when he tells Kirino, “Senpai is my everything”…… Kirino doesn’t trust Takase, and uses his longing for him to play with his feelings, wanting to make him feel troubled. “You’re too shy to even look at me when I’m by your side, it’s so cute how you look like a puppy when you’re trembling with expectation.” Feeling complacent because of Takase’s affection, Kirino gradually starts to depend on him…!?" ✰ Gifted & Burnt Out Pianist x Junior Up-And-Coming Pianist ✰ Gloomy Older Seme x Cute Younger Uke ⤷

"As a reporter, Clark has interviewed many criminals but never a murderer. Enter Alex, the Triage Killer. A serial killer who kills in three, he agrees to an interview so long as Clark offers one thing in return: himself. Murder after murder, question after question, Clark will learn why Alex kills. And Alex…he will learn Clark isn’t as innocent as he seems." ✰ Reporter x Murderer ✰ BOTH PSYCHOS ⤷ okay um. hm. LMFAO. was not expecting that. fascinating read. i've never disliked every main character yet still like the whole story like this. wholly an unnerving reading experience. really emphasizes how most BLs these days transcend reality, since in any other story the MC and ML would end up together.

"When he was just a student, Soohyun, ranked second, felt envious of the perfect Eunsung. Although he tried catching Eunsung, his soul aflame with passion, it wasn’t enough, and he lost all his motivation upon graduation. As time passed, Soohyun forgot everything. However, when he saw Eunsung collapse for the first time, he felt extreme pleasure. With his obsession for Eunsung rekindling, he has a desire to see him fall even further in-front of him..." ✰ Enemies to Lovers ⤷ [9.6] OH MY GODDDD YOU FR PUT ME ON I STAYED UP ALL NIGHT TO READ THIS!!!!! they are soooo fking cute omg!!! the way eunsung looks at soohyun had me SQUEELING! HE'S SO IN LOVE! The art is so good and some of the skinship scenes were so unique. i love those little details rather than them just going to pound town every 2 pages "enemies" to lovers, slow burn / emotional development, strong uke with a dead gaze, puppy seme, dramatic-ass "who did this to you" scenes...bro this had everything i love. only reason it doesn't get full points is bc i feel like the plot was wrapped up a lil too quickly/simply, and the plot felt a little unrealistic at times, but this type of shady/exploitative shit really does happen IRL, so i guess maybe seeing the behind the scenes made it hard to comprehend how it was going on all that time. yeah i could read 500 more chapters of them being in love UGH!!! trope: hate but has always been in love subconsciously

"It’s Christmas Eve, and Doyoung’s made a reservation at a luxurious hotel in the hopes of spending a romantic day with his crush, Hyunjin. But nothing seems to be going according to plan. They lose cell service, miss their reservation, and drive through a terrible rainstorm only to arrive at a haunted-looking hotel. When Doyoung asks for a refund, the imposing concierge insists he must participate in a game—a game that quickly turns Christmas into a nightmare." ✰ Dark Haired Seme x Light Haired Uke ✰ Uke split into multiple personalities ⤷ OMGGGG THIS WAS SO CUTE I LEGIT LOVE IT BUT CAN WE GET A SPIN OFF W RED AND ORANGE PLEASE GOD!!!! BUT YEAH this was such a good story, well written, obsessed tbh. High 4.8

"Yuuma works and live at the amusement park called "Dream Park". His days are normally filled up with kids tackling him and chatting with coworkers. Well, this is until his new coworker/roommate appears." ✰ Childhood Friends, Reunion ✰ Split Personalities ✰ TW: Dubcon ⤷ I kind of liked it. I liked who the MC ended up choosing among the personalities lol, but apart from that...idk. Good smut scenes.

"Haruhiko is down-and-out after losing his job. On his search for an easy-money job, Haruhiko runs into Akiyama in front of a rental date shop, he then pretends to be a staff. Haruhiko starts swindling Akiyama out of money without having to sleep with him. However, after witnessing Akiyama’s excessively naïve reaction, his feelings begin changing" ✰ Customer x Rent Boy ✰ Older Salaryman x Scammer ✰ Dark Haired MC/ML ✰ TW: Suicide ⤷ I love this mangaka so much, great story writing and art as always. Heartbreaking story. Poor bastard older salaryman meets younger boy pretending to be a rent boy for money. What starts as a scam turns to something more, but by then it's already too late.

"Dayeol hears two guys fooling around in the nurse’s office and accidentally knocks over the curtain rod. When the nurse walks in on the scene, devilishly handsome Taehyun tells her that Dayeol tried to make out with him. Before Dayeol can correct the misunderstanding, the rumor spreads and his archery scholarship is in jeopardy. To make matters worse, Taehyun doesn’t show the slightest bit of remorse; in fact, he shamelessly begins hanging around Dayeol. It’s not long before the two begin walking the thin line between hate and love." ✰ Student x Student, High School ⤷ this was pretty good! the jump from chapter 24 to 25 was wack but other than that i enjoyed it. it makes me sad the author comments on how the characters 'were suppose to be handsome but i didn't draw them well' because i thought the art was actually really great! the process of Taehyun learning to cope with his traumatic past and to trust/love was really realistic, i became really empathetic to him. i think the ending made sense and was satisfactory. i don't really like when BL webtoons go all over the top with the romance, it really takes away from the story and the sense of realism for me, so i liked this story just the way it was.
