Dandadan
guy who is super into aliens and girl who believes in ghosts meet and get into an argument about it. so then they each go to face the one they don’t believe in. turns out, they both exist and end up in trouble. boy loses his balls zomg I finally finished dandadan!! I’ve been reading it for months now damn. But I was kind of scared to finish it bc what if I forget the story having to read it week by week TTTTTTT. Idk it’s probably not a big deal sighhhh. anyways obviously I love dandadan. I still have yet to understand WHY it’s named this. Something or other is dandadan but I don’t understand it sadly. honestly the plot is so fire I fear. thank god for my friend recommending this to me bc I love it smmmm. the gang is always in my mind >o< I don’t even generally enjoy reading much action but I was always locked in here to see what was happening. that’s commitment. okarun and momo are so cute btw wth!!! I love them sm ah. the way they’re so perfect together even if not romantically. it’s just cuteness and vibes. honestly my favourite moment was still that bit super early on where they were underwater at school fighting like a giant lobster and then went out of empty space and they were in their underwear on the school floor god I was so embarrassed for them but oml was it funny. So worth it
Ao Haru Ride
like… shoujo love story with a few complications :”) wow I finally finished. Was surprisingly cute. I remember hearing strange things about this manga so I didn’t start it for a while. Idk people were dissing for some reason LOL. So at first I was really surprised when it was adorable and sweet. But little did I know….. the later chapters… LMAO. Honestly even as I was counting down to the final chapter I couldn’t comprehend that there were only that many chapters left. Spoilers: The end was pretty sudden imo, like futaba’s sitting there all “no I’m forgetting him” for a bunch of chapters, and she seems pretty dedicated to that, but then kou just makes it blatantly obvious he really likes her and she folds immediately?! LMAOOOOO. I feel so bad for her bf like ouuuu that was so messy. Poor freaking guy they were actually a good couple too D: but I totally understand why she felt like she had to move on yk? I feel like genuinely kou and futaba were a great pair and all the way through it was super adorable especially after reading that extra where we see some stuff from kou’s perspective. it just got messy w that other girl and I genuinely understand why kou felt obligated to help her because she helped him to much before. it was JUST… yeah a bit messy. but it’s ok! lol still cute
Perfect Buddy
rivals to lovers in the office. mc transfers in to a new office with an intimidating colleague who makes him do extra work damn this was so cute. Nearly had me shedding a tear NEARLY. man the confessing was so sweet but it took SO LONG. It’s actually ridiculous that we got 90% through the story before they got together like WHAT the slow burn is real also rivals to lovers yess. idk I really liked this one. If I’m honest there were moments where the consent was a little dubious and seo would be like mmm can u not and he would ignore it. so I was a little ??? what’s going on here? but it’s never really brought up so I’m assuming he was actually fine with it. RIGHT…????? honestly it is a little problematic though. that first scene where they were staying in the same room and THAT HAPPENED… ohhh my god it’s giving sexual assault. so ig only read if ur ready for dubious consent. anywho, I really enjoyed if I turned my brain off lmfaooo. fire yaoi I have not read the sides yet**
Fake Fact Lips
workplace rivals who always hold bets as to who is better at something. Latest bet: whoever falls in love with the other first loses oh em gyatt this was fire their competition actually had me screaming wth it was so funny to watch them compete over something so ridiculous when they were already in love (zen was he just didn’t know it yet ok…) and their banter was so good. I was laughing sm at them both being so vain to show each other up omg so funny. I really can’t wait for the second volume omgggg I want to see more of them!!!! 4 stars bc not long enough
Ossan no Pantsu ga Nan Datte Ii Janai ka!
a dad who is homophobic, transphobic, and sexist wants to try and connect with his family, more specifically his son, so befriends his son’s gay friend in hopes of becoming a better man damn I’m so glad I started this but also wdym it only has 2 chapters TTTTTT I want more now this is gonna be good I can feel it giving 5 stars to boost the rating
Dungeon Meshi
dungeon meshi… a party in the dungeon takes on a dragon, only to have the dragon eat one of them. this is the story of trying to get their friend back, and in the process realising how delicious the monsters inside the dungeon are wowowowow I finally finished it. It took me forever icl… but one day at tafe I locked tf in and read like 30 chapters. That’s where it all started. I got really involved in the story. I was also curious about the yuri aspects…. But I have to be so honest… I see why falin and marcille are shipped…. but it’s not that strong of a ship imo TTTTT they aren’t giving romance to me I’m SORRY. and I really like yuri ships. maybe in the anime they give more of that vibe?? but as it is rn, they’re just giving friends :pensive: I was actually hoping for some side stories that would go into their relationship more, but unfortunately there were none. I really liked all the characters in the end! At the beginning I wasn’t really convinced on anyone, but everyone grew on me. I love the group dynamic so much it’s so funny. Chilchack is probably my favourite in terms of comedy. When he revealed he had a wife and kids I was so shocked I thought he was like an 18 year old LMAO. He’s so tiny and looks so young with his getup. But really, it was so shocking to end up liking everyone. In the end, even the canaries were on the right side. damn winged lion I even had faith in you for a little bit T.T . I even liked Kabru and thistle. I did NOT think I’d end up liking thistle. But even they fell victim to the lion all along. the ending was really sweet, like everyone got to come together and everything. It’s really sad that Marcille didn’t get to fulfil her wish though. She was so terrified of everyone dying before her and ending up alone :((((( god that’s my baby wtf. even revealing that when she was a child she only had adults to be around her wtffff TTTTTTTT I feel so bad for her. That’s why it makes me happy that she was able to go on that whole journey with everyone. Because even though it was super crazy and literally threatened everyone’s lives… it was all time that they were able to spend together :’) the whole journey was so heartwarming for me idk because now their bond is stronger than ever and even if they’re apart in the future they’ll never forget the time they spent together <333333 sorry I really liked this HAHA.
Punch Drunk Love
mc has a total crush on the work “prince” and basically stalks him at work bc he likes him so much. then he finds out ml is gay so lowkey blackmails him into sleeping with him (but lighthearted and funny) I finished this a couple hours ago sauuur cute and funny. At the beginning I was a bit like…. where the hell are we going with this… but now it’s way better LOL. I don’t like the stalking and that ml was basically blackmailed into being with mc but ahhhh whatever. mc is such a freak I like him but DAMN ml can’t catch a break. I was actually pissing myself when he showed up in those ridiculous outfits… then when he was sprinkling roses on the floor of the parking lot omfg bro is nuts. Also they’re both soooo pretty. I like mc’s pretty face it makes me laugh that he doesn’t realise he’s pretty sm. whereas ml loves him like that but lowkey wants to keep it to himself lol. Oh my god. off topic but I tooooootally loved the side story like high school or university au I don’t remember. but oh my lord it was so good. I’m ngl I feel like I would like that more than the main story WHO SAID THAT??? sorry I love a little Cinderella story lmao. but back to main story, it was just nice to see the ml fall in love with him. Like, yeah, he’s a total dork but he genuinely cares about you and likes you for who you are, not bc ur rich. also when mc kept talking back to ml’s father that’s my goat. he dgaf he’s rich it’s all about how he’s making ml feel. like period. convincing them to go out for food in the end was nice too. It kinda made me wonder if he neglects all his kids like that
