EnBogreol's manga / #delinquent(15)

After Eiji’s younger brother, Seiji, gets into trouble with some school delinquents, he asks him for help. At the confrontation, Eiji meets Aisu, the current leader(a position that Eiji also held back in high school). After things get sorted out, Aisu seeks out Eiji and corners him with a love confession??? —- The art work is wonderful, just my taste. However, the story is... not great. Aisu is(was) a complete douche. Selfish and uncaring, aka, not relationship material. He does seem to change in the end, but still... it was a bad start. Worst was when he, let’s just say it, raped Eiji. Just, bruh... Eiji is much more likeable and enjoyable to read about. But the story seemed too short for me to really get to know the characters. I find that it ended pretty abruptly, with threads like Aisu and Eiji’s past encounter not being exapanded upon at at all, which I think is a shame. I also agree with many other commenters, that a side story about Seiji and Hachidori would have been really good lol.

Itsumi is a high school student with an intimidating face and style that makes people think he is a violent delinquent. In reality, he is a kind and gentle person with a soft spot for cute things. Recently though, things have become strange for him, as he is constantly approached by the handsome, adored, perfect school president, Seima. Much to his shock, the latter refers to him as his “Cinderella” and then asks him out??? What is going on?! —- Itsumi is bae, the gap between his appearance and true nature is just so cute! I have such a soft spot for delinquent bottoms lol. Seima is an example of another favourite trope of mine: the perfect prince. I think he manages to reach a good balance between being princely and “perfect”, while also still feeling suitably human. Like, he’s not a flawless robot, seen for example when he is just as flustered as Itsumi when they are romantically or sexually intimate(which is pretty rare for “top” characters). And his interactions with Itsumi are pretty entertaining. My favourite was when he came to Itsumi’s aid during the confrontation with the student council/bullies uwu. The story felt a little short, but that’s probably just me having gotten attached and wanting more lol. The art is beautiful; love the style. The story itself was simple, but sweet. Nice overall, and something that I go back to every once in a while ^^

Satomi is a handsome prince-like high school student, known as being both kind, intelligent, and well-liked. Life is going well for him, until his day is interrupted by someone: an intimidating underclass man, well known to be a delinquent, Hongou Yuzuru. The latter asks to meet with him on the roof, and much to his surprise, Yuzuru asks to become his little brother/underling!? —- This hits basically all of my personal tastes: Delinquent bottom Princely top Unconventional/misleading appearances Childhood friends Domestic home life Pining Just seems to have everything I like -W-. Yuzuru is such a sweet-heart; it’s so cute that he’s so shy around his crush, when he’s usually so intimidating. I like Satomi-senpai too, with how attached he becomes to Yuzuru. Him running after Yuzuru, or when he got upset that they aren’t sleeping in the same bed yet were among my favourite moments. The use of the t slur is a bit troubling, and I would have liked to see a side story about the crossdresser and the other delinquent guy(I think they would make for an interesting story), but overall, I’ve gotten so attached to this story now, that I can’t be too update about it for long lol.
