lilithespark's manga / #Romance(2382)

44 I like the direction this comic takes from the premise! Despite the title, the story isn’t mainly about a bathhouse— it’s just where the MC and the ML’s love begins. I love the focus on their careers as designers! Art is gorgeous obvi, and I love the main couple’s simply, yet affectionate dynamic. Misunderstandings aren’t too drawn out, making this a more refreshing read. I do wish some of the characters had more nuance however, such as the MC’s ex whose primary is to be a jerk and a hindrance to the MC and nothing else. Decent read

47 Ngl i liked the premisE and still do! But the plot is a bit rushed and a lot of details are just glossed over. The storytelling feels a bit disjointed and unsatisfactory… Plus, it seems that the story is moving away from the MC just being a food truck owner and how only she can save the world and stuff.

45 One of the notable things about this is how it subverts expectations. The MC is an omega, but he doesn’t look like on in the traditional sense. he’s muscular, he can fend for himself— I really appreciate his character and how he doesn’t let the ML walk all over him! and i love that the author still flushed out his emotional side and such. The ML feels like your typical alpha, top dog, possessive love interest, but I liked that the author shows his actual care for the MC! plus, the misunderstanding isn’t drawn out, and the adult characters actually act like adults (thank the heavens). In a way the storytelling isn’t particularly special; what makes this standout is its use of the familiar tropes we know and twisting it another delightful direction. I hope the “love” part of the relationship gets flushed out in the side stories as it feels incomplete as of now with the ending of the second season.

32 The story is quite good so far! The world building isn’t rushed, and I like that the side characters are given their own stories and distinct experiences. I love how the FL is capable and leader-like, which is actually backed up by the story— She’s not just a damsel in distress. I think her relationship with the ML is well-founded as well like if your friend went AWOL for 5 years and never responded to your letters, you would probably be mad too.

102 This is wayyy better than I thought it would be! I binge read all of this in one setting. The MC does fall into the business woman trope, but her character is referencing because she’s just so trusting and curious of the world! An adorably naive regarding human relationships at times (which makes sense because of her trauma). The art is so YUMMY!! I love the ML’s breasts- I mean character. COUGH. He’s not overbearing and kind of cutely dense lol. Anyway, their interactions are so honest! They support each other as PARTNERS, and it just makes you want to root for the MC! The drama is exciting, as well as the MC’s power to see the future. The incorporation of modern products makes sense in the story. Despite reading a lot of isekai romance manhwa like this, this manages to subvert my expectation in delightful ways.

Had potential! The character development was JUST getting there, and if this is were longer, I probably would have enjoyed it!

20 Cute but a little bland? All of the villains are forgiven by the MC…. i mean good on her ig but I would wish them eternal suffering lol. Cliché but an alright read

This is SOOO cute! What this manga did well— it nailed! But the problems were… not so good. I liked the fluffy video baking content they make, and I WISH the mangaka explored that more! The conflict basically ruins the story, which really shouldn’t be the case if it is the bulk of it. Of course it’s a misunderstanding, and it gets fairly frustrating to read with the ML pushing the MC away for… no well-founded reason? I would get it if it’s due to his last trauma or whatnot, but I think the author just makes him do that for the sake of plot, which is my problem with this. CUTE but frustrating read. It’s quite saddening because this did have a lot of potential that just got wasted. Okay read.

5 Confinement but not toxic! It’ll be interesting to see how the ML deals with his trauma and his twisted feelings toward the MC…

6 the art is so YUMMY I LOVE. the romance is a little fast paced for my taste but their dynamic is so GOOD. it almost feels like they do light bdsm play? bc the iruma is so submissive and the MC likes to tease him lol. love themmm
