otakulys's manga / #Psychological(137)

Damn, this breaks my heart and makes me want to cry. She's so raw and vulnerable with her experience in mental illness, and though my own mental illness hasn't manifested in the exact same way, I can still really relate to that feeling of being lost and hopeless. I can't wait to see what happens from here on. I'm really rooting for the author. I hope she ultimately finds herself and finds someone to love her. I'm almost scared to see what sad things might follow, but I'm curious and eager all the same. So glad I started reading this!

I really enjoy seeing a BL manga that dissects different elements of love and relationships. It's so rare to see an unhealthy relationship portrayed as such, and it's almost unheard of for a character to end up with a guy who's healthier for him in the end. Very sweet, though it was a bit abrupt and confusing in places. Still, I really liked it. I'd enjoy reading more about the main two, but I was still satisfied with what there is.

Everybody in this story is an asshole. Kind of weird and confusing, not a lot of detail in the art, but I'm intrigued. I'm hoping some people get punched in the face for treating the main girl like crap.

I wonder why the follow up with that sad love triangle isn't on here. It's translated. I haven't seen it on the site in general, which is weird. Anyway, read most of these separately, but a few were new to me. I fucking love Harada, ugh. Honestly, in the grand scheme of things, these weren't as bad as they could have been as far as soul crushing. Sad, still, especially the first one. No one wins, and it sucks. I wish she'd continue it beyond the second part. Why can't they share, damn it? More love triangles need to end like that.

This is... really weird. I cry very easily, and I figured I was taking a risk here, but the stories are so quick and shallow that it doesn't have much of an impact. I gave it three stars so far, instead of two, just because the third story was actually kind of intriguing despite its silly premise. The first one's ending made me laugh out loud because it was so abrupt. They had an opportunity to make these stories powerful, but they really missed their mark. If Harada has a piece in here, it'll no doubt be awesome, but I don't know what to expect from here on out.

Read this one already in one of her other anthologies, but I read it again because I love it and it makes me cry. Even though it's a little bittersweet, this one is actually a happy ending in its own way. They love one another, and that's all that matters, even if they had to go through that stuff to be able to admit it. At least now they can be together.

Graphic extension of the very brutal rape scene in the main story. Hard to look at. Even though that character is a giant asshole for most of the manga, it's still heartbreaking. Definitely not for the faint of heart.

Interesting so far. Not sure what my rating will be later, but I like the build up at this point. Definitely creepily obsessed with his older brother, but it's sad that his brother changed a few of the things he used to do out of embarrassment. That little moment when he quickly drops his younger brother's hand... I hope it stays interesting.

Aww, this is really sad so far! I want them to help heal one another, damn it! But I'm glad it didn't just happen immediately. I hope it continues to unfold nicely and doesn't become rushed and shallow.

I really liked this. I'm glad that the father never fully stooped to his unhealthy desires, even though he did feel his kid up a little, which is... not great. But these things usually go much farther in Yaoiland. I like that this is pretty clearly meant to be screwed up, right up to the pondering at the end. It isn't passed off as cute or fluffy. I wish I could read more about that character, especially if he started dealing with his issues, rather than the story turning into full on incest. But this was a good oneshot.
