Completed~ College Classmates
Rating:11/10 ☆on my favs list too!
A classic one for me! FL goes back to college after the incident, she meets ML, and they start working together and naturally catch feelings for each other! Personally, it's the start of a mature romance for me; they communicate okay and respect each other. ML is a sweetheart, and FL isn't weak, just a bit lost; she is realistic in my eyes. Def worth re-reading every now and then
Ongoing~ Yakuza & School Life
Mature warning; Graphic topics

FL is a part of the Yakuza family and is supposed to marry our ML, so the story is just navigating their complex relationship. THIS STORY IS NOT A SHOUJO. TBH, I love the FL, hate everyone else... esp ML (since he isn't loyal BUT I GET IT I UNDERSTAND) but the story is mature and the art is really good. I'm reading to root for FL and that's it
Completed~ I don't know how to trope this...

Natsumi starts to go on dates with Tougo, who happened to be her sister's fiancé, dw she dead :D. ANYWAYS SRRY. This one is good; it explores complexity in hatred and jealousy along with the common notion of wanting something that you shouldn't have. This one is a yearly read, and the art is amazing. Give it a shot, and I'm sure you'll gain something from this work!
