ReviewRaptor's manga / #dislikable seme(138)

Definitely not recommended. Even if it does show 'realistic' bullying, it's still fucked up and that bully is definitely a mental nutcase based on his weird behavior at the end. WTF.

I want to delete this from my memory actually...

I tend to forget just how good an author Scarlet Beriko is, until I re-read one of the comics, then I'm very much reminded again. XD Beriko just has a way to make anything interesting. No matter the people or overall story portrayed, there is always something worth reading for. Especially since this is one of the few authors who doesn't make things predictable, even if you've read lots of BL. The art is, of course, immaculate as always. Lots of beautiful shots and angles. <3 The story well written in terms of overall plot and dialogue, tho I think it would have been nicer to have them more seperated or detailed. It feels like an inbetween of 3 stories, making me think I missed reading a whole comic for the childhood friend and the classmate in love. HOWEVER, since so much other character stories are in this, it actually enhances the story for me. It feels like an actual world we are entering as opposed to the usual: Here's two dudes, this is the side mob, now see them talk and interact. Which, I honestly think is a genius move many old-school authors from japan did. Not just for world building but because this means each comic is worth reading because you know more info about another good couple is in there that you might also like. Hats off for that idea. It really makes me miss the old 10 chapter format for comics. Since this is just not do-able for the modern popular 50 or 100 chapter webtoons. XD I like the story and characters very much. The age gap thing of the friend's couple might not be something some people like, but for me it wasn't an issue. It DOES enhance the plot in it's own way, seeing there actually being characters with an active involvement and own life in the story. Really. So I appreciate them being in there just for that, honestly. Give it a go, the main story itself is really lovely and the art a great match for the writing skills. Worth a re-read for me personally (which i have done multiple times over the years tbh.)

Extremely bad. The artwork is nice, but the characters (except Chiaki and Senpai) are absolutely disgusting. And the uke has to go to therapy to get a grip on reality as he seems to think it's ok to force his "Hey, let's whore around the campus just for fun! YOLO!" kinda mentality onto everyone else, even new people. Not everyone likes to screw around like a mindless animal, let alone be approached by such a person. Definitely not recommended.
