[LOVE AND BELONGING]
The idea of a teacher dating their former highschool student is disturbing and being in love with your cousin who also happens to be your literal stepsister is questionable, however, I, for some reason, tuned out my logical brain when I read this.
Problematic aspects aside, this is well-written and reading it felt like a torture sequence involving being choked and caressed at the same time. The teacher’s grief and insecurity is so raw and relatable.

I am so thankful to the ones currently translating this! I cannot translate nor clean raws but I don’t mind purchasing the Chinese raws myself.
This is one of my absolute favorite bili bili comics. The two MCs are both amazing and they have great romantic tension. The story also has lesbians who are powerful and complex (THIS IS NOT A DRILL)!! This is plot-driven and many people say they find it confusing but I think one reread would solve that difficulty.

I need this to update before I die bruv.
Very adorable yet realistic story. I like how the characters are written and the MC’s feelings are so real.
[SELF-ACTUALIZATION]
I love horror mangas so this was right up my alley. The most horrifying thing about this manga, however, is not the fact that a deity-like entity has taken the form of (the already dead) Hikaru. It is the fact that Yoshiki will have to go on grieving a beloved friend that everyone obliviously believes is alive and kicking.

Another one that felt like being jabbed in the throat. I’m gonna be 100% real, they both stressed me like no other. Their unresolved traumas and fear were incredibly real. I think the author did a great job at fleshing out the characters and using traumatic events to add interest without it being fetishy.

I love comedy more than anything so this was incredibly entertaining and the MC is hilarious.

Bro the MC is such a dick but he’s hilarious.
Chemistry is a fucking 20/10 bro, I usually don’t care if a shounen ai gives me no explicit scenes but their tension is so good they gotta start humping.
In all seriousness, their dynamic is absolutely amazing to me because I love watching characters fight and bicker prior to forming a romantic relationship. This makes watching them fall in love so satisfying.
Update: They finally kissed and I literally stood up and applaud

Bro they are FREAKS, but the very incredible kind. They fuck and they fuck and they fuck.

TW: Sexual assault, rape
It’s too early to really categorize this but it’s lowkey so peak rn but also im worried the forlorn-looking boxer guy may have CTE from the amount of times he gets beat.
In light of chapter 24, I want nothing more for Pyeong hwa to be better and to be free. The atmosphere of this manhwa tells me that this may not end happily, but I am shitting and hoping.

TW: Sexual assault, rape, and violence.
The plot is truly interesting but I feel sick for the main characters. They deserve peace and freedom from this evil ass world.
