moody_bish's manga / #werewolf(5)

the supernatural aspect of it develops well and the author balanced heavy themes with comedic drawing styles or casual scenes. you'll be able to witness three couples with different yet harmonic relationships that tie them together. the main couple has a casual romantic relationship, the second uncovers mafia related action, while the third dwells on the separation of human and werewolf. it is a satisfying read because there arent loose ends and the plot does not stray away even if there are 3 stories weaved together. it's also a plus that the author could draw sensual sex scenes, really feeling how they're e treating each other tenderly and lovingly.

Haru is a mangaka who stumbled upon the supernatural world at an old shopping district. There, he met Isaac, a vampire coffee bartender. Alongside him was a werewolf who own a shop and a fox who works at a pharmaceutical company. In hopes of finishing his work, Haru decides to model his vampire character to Isaac. Yet doing so unfolded memories which caused a drift or silent distance between Isaac and Haru. Nonetheless, Haru was determined to immortalize both the memory and the unexpected love they both mutually share. [wholesome and slightly a cliffhanger]

preview: a timid teacher gets bullied by his students and he was tasked to home visit a talented yet often absent student. however, when he arrives, he is raped for "smelling good". Scared witless, he trembles at the sight of his rapist, yet his student rapist aggressively pursuits him. The teacher decides to skip school, but his student stalked him to his home. Then, the son of a bitch gets confuse as to why the teacher runs away from him. The teacher, in an attempt to be safe, points a knife at his student. But his student still approached him and the scuffle led to the knife stabbing his student. That's when the student transformed to a wolf. The next morning, the healed student then blackmails, threatens, and guilt trips the teacher since he knew about his wolf bloodline, and also being a teacher who had stabbed him. —that's just until ch2. i didnt finish the remaining two chapters because the plot is a one sided assault anyways.

Execution of the story is lacking, esp during the unraveling of the conflict. It also ends at an awkward note where the author focused on their romance while neglecting the plot they made to connect them.

Native American mom talks about being unable to choose a mate, as it is destiny, proceeds to be racist and homophobic. White guy's fam treated his coming out confession as rebellion and disowns himself (as he thinks that they disowned him). Native American's bestfriend is an asshole and a homophobic but should be tolerated coz he's reared by an abusive dad. But "it's ok" coz love wins. Mom steps back and realize she shouldn't dissuade her son's love. White guy's parents has lingering prejudice of "it's a shame" but they're pretty welcoming. Bestfriend realized he's been an asshole and apologized (did get mauled and turned to a werewolf, so he's fr staying). It's a "if they don't accept my happiness, they never really cared about me" type of relationship woven to balance all relationships affected by same sex relationship
