JGheartManga's manga / #Not favourite but respect(391)

Started off as rape but far into the story it becomes lovey dovey. Hmmmmmm can't really judge this one as I'm enjoying the sweet parts....

5 stars for the beautiful art but 3 stars overall as it was too rapey and brutal to continue. Was tricked by the vague synopsis and can see no hint of romance or sexiness. It was interesting enough as a story so may continue if I ever get a stronger stomach in the future but that will be highly unlikely

Spinoff Sangen Tonari No Tooi Hito. My only beef is that it felt a little unfinished and the smut was heavily glossed over. I can't really pin point my reasons but I liked Sangen Tonari no Tooi Hito 0.5 stars better.

The seme's thoughts are pretty confusing but the gist of the story is fun to read. The ending became super cutesie and smut was on the tame side.

Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. There was only 1 glossed over "rapey" scene with first couple that was played out as possessiveness but was still rape. 1st couple was a story about Stockholm syndrome vs poverty and disguised as love. 2nd couple was about seme sleeping with many girls to get uke to admit to love. As much as I hate to admit it, I didn't hate both stories which is testament to the mangaka's skills.

1 Doukyuusei [Classmates] - Prologue 2 Sotsugyousei [Graduate] - Sequel 3 Sora to Hara - Spin-off (Story of Teacher) 4 Occupation to Beloved - Mixed 5 Graduation Certificate - Epilogue

Would have loved a more fleshed out ending but enjoyable read nonetheless

Sequel to Ringo ni Hachimi
