Like A Wind On A Dry Branch

Ongoing | Moon seaul,Uret | 2019 released

legit one of the best fucking ones out there. (within this genre, at least.) although y’all should head over to webtoon, it’s available for free over there and you’d also be supporting the author in the process.

As The Lady Wishes

Ongoing | Yoo song joo,블랑피카 | 2019 released

well… i have mixed opinions about this one. for the first half of the manhwa, jinha was low-key ALWAYS freaking me out, lol. BUT!!! i eventually came to a point where i literally didn’t care about any of that anymore. i mean, if eunseo didn’t care about it, why should i? overall, she seemed perfectly content with him (and he with her), therefore i didn’t pay his shady behavior any mind beyond that. she loved him despite his flaws, and that’s why it think they ended up being quite the match in the end! obviously, their relationship didn’t start out perfect. (even though eunseo seemingly thought it was ideal, she hadn’t yet realized that he was playing a role, nor that she’d been manipulated by him since they were kids.) i mean, he’d been wearing this ‘good guy’ mask all throughout their lives—at least in her close vicinity—and once that mask finally came off, their prospects didn’t look all that great at first. but eventually, after jinha dropped his act completely and began being his true self around her, as well as when she started to see and treat him for who he really was, i think that’s when their relationship began to truly prosper... or at least they finally had an ACTUAL foundation they could start rebuilding their trust from. in the end, it obviously seemed to work out for them! (communication is KEY, y’all. don’t underestimate the act of proper communication.) anyway. at some point after all that madness, my previous doubts about them as a couple slowly began to disperse. it’s actually been a good while since i forgave that shady fucker by now… probably around chapter 50 or something of the like? honestly, i’m not too sure. either way, no relationship is perfect; theirs less than most. still, i personally think that if two people are happy with each other and feel content in each other’s company, nothing else really matters—despite everything that might’ve happened or left damage in the past. they’re not perfect individuals, not even close, but at least they can perfectly compliment each other and make each other grow. (well, at least somewhat.) but anyway!!! like i said earlier, they seemed to be good match despite everything else by the time we’d reached the end of the story. overall, i’ve enjoyed reading this every week! so, in the end, big daddy energy clearly triumphs any obstacles!!! duh, obviously. <3 #lmao #whyamilikethis

Legs That Won't Walk

Complete | 흑살구, Black Apricot | 2020 released

holy FUCK, this shit is hot. and depressing. but mostly hot. equally as fucked up, too. this is basically proving that my moral compass truly is shattered. edit: well… these days, i’d say it’s 95% fucked up and 5% not. i’m very intrigued about season three, though. this last episode was a complete 180 from the last episode, sheesh. there’s excitement prevalent once again!!!

Under the Green Light

Ongoing | Jaxx | 2000 released

this is RIDICULOUSLY good. (jaxx is back at it again!!!) not too surprisingly, i’m really enjoying the moral dilemmas in this one. man, i’m super stoked! it’s starting to feel more like a steamy psychological thriller than before and i’m LOVING every minute of it. this is not my typical go-to genre or plot, but perhaps it should be. jin’s probably one of the hottest characters i’ve ever come across ANYWHERE. and matthew could legit kill me and i’d thank him for thinking of me, heh. although i’m still doubting whether that’s something he’d even do or not. idek, it’s still a mystery. anyway, it’s just so freakin’ intricately written!!! these characters are something else. really, really unique and complex. i have no idea in which direction we’re heading, but i’m embracing the journey—whatever it might take us. fucking hell, you guys… i knew it was bound to be good, but i didn’t expect anything like this. so happy i finally started on this one!!! i’ve been holding out until i saw its release way back. wish i could’ve binged the whole story in one go like i did with ‘walk on water’ twice… but one shouldn’t be too greedy, aye? oh, and in case it wasn’t already made clear, the sex scenes are fucking INCREDIBLE, y’all. got nothing but great things to say about this comic as a whole. praise jesus. <33 //a modern day nihilist. #31: aaaand, i came. fuck ME, that’s sexy. edit #2: this is wrecking meeee. i kinda never thought it’d be this emotional. (should check myself before i wreck myself. whatever.) it’s just glorious. i genuinely love this. season one’s been amazing, and you guys have nooo idea just how much i’m looking forward to season two… matthew and jin, y’all. such comped characters, but i love them all the same.

What It Means to be You

Ongoing | Lee Bora,Ranyong, Ocean | 2000 released

this is INSANE. wow. they really did switch places… in every aspect of the word, it’d seem. i’m feeling soooo much for these characters. i just want them both to be happy. please, at least give us that much, author!!! i don’t care how or when, just let them be happy. edit: this is literally just a tragedy at this point. it’s different from anything i’ve ever read in the past… beautifully haunting. and i love all this darkness! still, i do hope there’ll be light at the end of this tunnel. i don’t know how, but i just want them both happy. or at least content with whatever happens… that’d be good enough for me.

At the End of the Road

Complete | Haribo | 2016 released

This being the very first shounen ai comic I read, I had little to no idea what to expect. Now I think it’s fairly easy for me to admit my obsession with this story, lol. It opened up a whole new world for me! At this point in time, I’ve read “At the End of the Road” three times. In less than three weeks, no less... Seriously. #noregretstho Despite this manhwa having received a couple of negative reviews on here—albeit most of them ARE positive, naturally—I still consider it to be one of my absolute favorites. This has become my go-to read whenever I feel... nostalgic, kind of?? Or whenever I hear a song I’ve previously associated it with, I think about Woojin and Taemin and start smiling like some kind of a crazy motherfucker, lol. Can’t help it. I love these two. Either way, I’m really excited to see what Haribo’s planning regarding (possible) future stories! I’d probably read anything of his at this point. Yuuuup. (edit: i’ve been following ‘mad dog’ since its initial release back in june of 2021, and dude, it’s fucking INCREDIBLE. so fucking great, man… this guy knows what he’s doing. i just adore his work!!! season one was wrapped up nicely back in early february of 2022, so now i’m simply awaiting the release of season two! enthusiastically awaiting, that is. heh. it’s going to be epic, i already know it.) - — - — - — - — - Soooo, I’m just about to read this manhwa again… for the sixth time. Just letting y’all know, lol. #march2022 #stillobsessed #noregrets2.0

True Education

Ongoing | Jae yong taek,Han ga ram | 2019 released

…is corporal punishment an actual thing in some places? as in, it’s actually legal?? the fuck??? update: i just googled it and it is, in fact, legal. unbelievable. edit: i’m loving the story!!! i simply detest the whole notion of corporal punishment and violence in general, though. especially considering it just births even more violence that no one wants to take responsibility for. it’s a vicious cycle… quite literally, lol. i don’t really believe in morality (or any other social construct), but i fucking DETEST hypocrisy. don’t go around hurting other people if you can’t take a fucking hit yourself. treat others the way you’d want them to treat you. that’s it—it’s all there is to it!!! that should be common sense. fucking hell. anyway, daddy’s fucking haaaawt. his behavior kinda turns me on, lol. i don’t care how ‘violent’ he is, he could fuck me up any day. (and yes, i’ve got issues. i legit don’t care.) humanity’s trash and there’s nothing we can do about that, but sheeeesh. if i hit someone, i’d expect them to hit me back. (quid pro quo, my man!) it doesn’t mean that i will or even would, but at least i wouldn’t go around blaming other folks for being aggressive if i’m a physically aggressive person myself. but personally, i try to be the change i want to see in the world—as cliché as it sounds. and just as i’ve said before, i don’t particularly enjoy violence, but it is what it is. if someone were to hit me, i’d say i have every right to hit them back. i simply choose not to because it’s not something i wish to be an advocate for. still, this is a work of fiction and i know how to separate reality from that. i probably wouldn’t find a guy like this very attractive in real life, lol. well, maybe. i think…? anyway, all is fair in love and manhwa, as the saying goes!!! (although i might’ve paraphrased a bit.) edit #2: wow, he’s such a legend. what a badass bitch, omfggg. love to see it!! he’s like karma incarnated, lol.
