lilithespark's manga / #Younger seme x Older uke(6)

This was a really nice read! It’s very uplifting, and if I had to describe this manga in one word, I would say it is “effort.” This isn’t the most fully fleshed out story, but I liked that we could see the leads making the effort to reveal himself to the other, waiting, etc. I liked how the presence of their age gap was portrayed. Their romance felt sugary sweet! Yet nothing too substantial.

You know, this would be so perfect if i weren’t for the fact that— you know, the ML is a high schooler. I know that he’s technically legal, but c’mon now… Just knowing this while reading left a bad taste in my mouth. The setting is just right! The leads meet in an online game and love happens— as a couple, they were really cute and erotic, but as I said before, other parts made me uncomfortable. Like imagine getting with your coworker’s 18 year-old nephew.. I think it’s gross, and it infringes on the remnants of my remaining moral bottom line. A lot of important things just don’t get addressed. The uncle briefly mentions it, but that’s all— and he causally outed the MC. Don’t be like the uncle, guys. Minus the age gap this would be my cup of tea.

The art is to die for… They’re so pretty *sobs* Anyway, I quite like the ML and his vibes. Though he does seem a bit eccentric. Nothing like a good unrequited love story. I hope this plays out a teensy bit different from what I expect and that it’s not full of clichés, though. Update: So it played out like how I expected… But I liked it! The confession scene was *chef’s kiss* And I appreciate the art very much. 5

i hate student x teacher but this seemed okay for some reason? least it was ex-student. some parts did feel rushed/awkward like the actual coming to like each other part, but otherwise, it was enjoyable. pretty fluffy
