mochidays's manga / #age gap(61)

this was a cute story about a young boy from an orphanage who was saved by a guy from the mafia and how he views this guy as his savior and once he is 23 he falls in love with the mafia boss and it’s quite cute. it’s nothing that special but the art was nice.

this is so cute but I feel so bad for the top because he’s always chasing after the bottom. I read up until the end of volume five and I didn’t realize that this wasn’t completed so I’m a bit sad about that and it left off on quite a bit of an intense cliffhanger, but I did still enjoy it a lot and I feel really bad for the top because the bottom is really annoying and always leads them on and clearly his feelings for him, but won’t do anything about it since the top is too young, but also at the same time is way too comfortable with certain things happening, so it really is like leading the top on

i love this author!! this sequel was so good. i have nothing monumental to say. i loved the first book so i definitely love this one too.

this was a very sweet one. I enjoyed it. The story was cute. I felt insane amounts of secondhand embarrassment at times, but I still liked it a lot. I just wish we knew what the actual age gap was because Bro was married before, but he doesn’t look too old my guess is he’s around early 30s.

what I really enjoyed about this one was that the stories plot was said in the Midwest during like the Cowboys era which I thought was super interesting and not something you see all the time I initially didn’t read a different story because it was in black-and-white so for me to have read this entire thing, even though it is in black-and-white goes to show how good this one is I love how in the end the plot twist was that he actually was the man the entire time which I think just made the story just that much better the romance between the two main characters is really well done and ultimately I really enjoyed this read. I just wish there was color since I always prefer colors with these stories, but it was really good.

when i first started this, i was honestly kind of put off by how the story began. the fact that the main character was still a minor at the start and the male lead just pulled up, decided this kid should live with him, and expected trust right away felt so strange. for like the first 40 chapters i really couldn’t figure out the direction of the plot or what was actually going on. but honestly… the story turned out to be really fucking good. the art at the beginning felt amateur, you could tell the artist was uncomfortable with certain poses and the lighting wasn’t very advanced. but then halfway through season two i was like wow—the art started to improve so much. by season three and the epilogue it was gorgeous. the growth in both the art and the storytelling was phenomenal. what i really appreciated about this story is how it handled the age gap dynamic. the younger person was actually treated like someone younger, instead of being written as if they were the same age. usually in these stories the older character ends up acting immature or dismissing the younger one, but here the older partner actually acted mature, acknowledged the weirdness of their situation, and treated the dynamic with care. another thing i loved was the rare inclusion of adoption in korea to signify marriage. since gay marriage isn’t legal, a lot of same-sex couples have gone the adoption route so they could be considered family. i think it’s such an important and realistic detail that should show up more in stories, because it highlights the genuine struggles of being in a same-sex relationship and navigating the legal side of it. overall, i fucking loved this story. you really get to watch a damaged person grow into someone completely different, and the execution was amazing. is it one of my all-time favorites? probably not. but would i recommend it? absolutely. early on i would’ve rated it like 4/5 because i felt so lost, but by the end it was a solid 5/5. i adored it and i definitely think it’s worth reading.

I left off on special episode two I really enjoyed this one. The art was really good. I really like the vibe and I really liked that. One of the characters was very openly gay so there were lots of references to things. It felt very authentic and ultimately this entire read was very good. I can’t wait to see where the plot takes us

wow, this is quite the age gap but I still really enjoyed it. It made me kind of uncomfortable when he was a kid like he was only 10. I don’t know. I understand that it’s realistic, but it does make someone a bit uncomfortable to look at I have to say, but I did still really like it.

I finished up until chapter 15. This is very good so far. It’s a very unique premise.

100% just grooming. this is kinda insane
