lilithespark's manga / #BL(1803)

I thought this was really cute. It was nice to see them overcome their “first fight” as a couple. Dating isn’t all fun and games, so you’re bound to encounter one once in a while. Minato is “trash,” but he’s also relatable because of it. I don’t hate his character, but he did make the read a bit frustrating, I’ll admit. I also loveddd the extra! The vulnerability from the ML (Tsuzuki)…. Felt very real.

Ahh, this was so cute!! I really lied how Minato went out of his way to “fight” for Tsuzuki, haha. Even if it mwant a change in his values. I was a bit unsatisfied with the resolution as I really wanted to see Tsuzuki shut down the blond guy for good and not through a third party. But I suppose that’s part of his nice guy charm. This is definitely my favorite part so far as it demonstrates the leads opening up more to each other and thinking about a future together as a couple. It had its comedic moments (e.g. megane guy) and was overall a pleasant read.

Refreshing read. Liked how it didn’t have any dramatic, toxic turns. Just unadulterated love. Love manifesting in such a way that you’re willing to listen to your S.O. rant on end, haha.

I like this a lot more than I sxpected. The leads are both kind of newbies at love, but still, they’re head over heels for each other. There’s some pretty funny moments, but I like how rhere’s a balance between that and the heartfelt storyline. 23

3 ATS *sigh* Why’d he have to rape him though? The ML? I can see the plot coming from a mile away. Predictable. The author just doesn’t know how to write rape. It’s used as this sexy plot device instead of the trauma-inducing act it actually is. But at least it has delinquents?

Eh it was cute ig? They were both pretty weird and the whole stalker thing…. *sigh* Why did I read this? The spinoff was a lot better. Looks like this is actually the prequel to it lmao. Anyway, ngl I just didn’t like it. Nothing really likeable about it except for the art.

dramatic (e.g. the wording, phrasing), attempted rape scene but i think that was handled pretty well, feels kinda unfinished, lots of loose ends with mitsuki, had there been more chapters, i would’ve wished for that to be expanded upon. but i did like the romance and how they just unabashedly loved each other. the modeling plot-line was a bit unexplained. the author tried to pass if off as kyosuke doing it bc of unrestrained list for ryo but why the entertainment industry? it’d’ve been nice if we got to see more of kyosuke actually love his job. most of the side characters felt short-lived. despite all that, i liked it actually. and the slight emphasis on the fact that they’re two guys, men, dating. i didn’t approve of the author using the sin analogy every five seconds, but the leads just love each other and that’s that. no need for further explanation.

31 ATS I quite liked this! Interesting premise executed very well. A sex toy shop in the Joseon Dynasty? How much more unique could you get than that? I don’t know much about the characters, but they’re all very likable. It’s both kinky and wholesome! Not very toxic, mild amount of angst. The author’s done a great job so far.

help this was a really fun read. and that plot twist! i just love two idiots in love lmao 3
