Tonari no Usotsuki (Suzaka Shina)

Complete | Rika anzai,Shina suzaka | 2000 released

This is just too lovely, man. Both the leads have their own issues. The MC has internalized homophobia, and the ML’s ex cheated on him. I think it’s quite realistic in that the MC is a “dishonest” man, who chooses to hide his real self in the pretense of a heteronormative “happy ever after.” I loved his growth as a character (plus the ML was so cute). Just wish we had more established relationship fluff. ;-; 9/10

This was really funny. The MC is such a wreck, and I can kind of relate, haha. Anyway, the story was fluffy and healing! The age gap was demonstrated well here as the ML does look older. I liked that the ML was taller than the MC as well, not a very conventional image of a “bottom” according to fictional representation. Inalso like the subliminal message that, really, anyone can do makeup! Quite liked this. 8/10

I Want To Be In Love With A Game Addict!

6 Aww this is pretty cute and funny actually. Using a “game” as an excuse to touch your boyfriend haha

Monogatari no Ketsumatsu wa

Complete | Ootsuki miu | 2019 released

Ahh it’s so cute that they have a size difference. The ML, who is also the bottom, is taller than the MC! Very nice. Anyway, this has your standard miscommunication. I think I can relate to the ML because even though I like horror games, I barely have the stomach to play it. I prefer watching lets-plays instead. Really cute manga! Nothing necessarily special about it, but I enjoyed reading.

Necromancer Survival

Ongoing | 키마님 | 2000 released

This is a great adaptation, man. I've read the novel, but I think this manhwa does compare to it! The story itself is splendid, of course. I like how the author plays around with dynamics (i.e. Seo Dawon and Yikyung's relationship). It has a bit of a dark tone obviously, but it's executed beautifully. The characters are just so dynamic, and the setting is so interesting…. Highly, highly recommend!

Ore no Kirai na Senpai

Complete | Haruyama Moto | 2000 released

Help I actually liked it? The senpai bottoming was a surprise. It took a cliché trope and turned it into something somewhat original. This was pretty funny, and I think it executed the tsundere kouhai who wants to be the most popular guy in school x cool, mysterious senpai oozing sex appeal trope well, haha.

Aware na Beta wa Koi wo Shiranai

Ongoing | YASHIKI Shima | 2022 released

11 BRO THERE’S SO MUCH DRAMA. and like dubcon? but they most love each other so whyyy. This is so tragic. I wouldn’t say this is the best alpha x beta pairing, but the author does one hell of a job protraying. plus the sexual abuse the ml experiences…. plus the mc’s past and the reason for his character. took a dark turn. interesting read but definitely not everyone’s cup of tea

Omae no Yubi de Toroketara

Complete | Utsumi long | 2019 released

Really good manga but I kind of felt like something was missing. It did turn out better than what I expected, though. Overall, wholesome ending but it was kind of lacking in the romance department and character building. But I liked the photography theme. Smut was pretty good.

Hatsujou Relationship

Ongoing | Katsuragi katsura | 2019 released

This was quite a cute manga. It’s your typical “delinquent” manga where the kouhai falls for his cool senpai. I didn’t really like how forceful the romance was? It wasn’t rape-y per se… or maybe it was, but I wish we could’ve seen the ML be more reciprocative. Decent.

Datte Yarashiikoto shitai

Ongoing | Katsura katsuragi | 2019 released

The plot’s just stupid. The “uke” was assaulted and the conflict was just a misunderstanding. Not a very fun read ngl
