pluviophiliac's manga / #steamy level 69696(505)

only wanted to check out the smut originally, but ended up sticking around and breezing through the less interesting chapters. will have to reread it properly one day!!!

wow. i actually grew to really love this one. truly didn’t think i would. gorgeous writing, man!!! and excellent character development, too. absolutely enthralled by the bond these two developed throughout the story, omfg. i genuinely didn’t think i’d come this far; i originally only wanted to check out what the smut was about, lmfao. i’m glad i stuck around! things just kept getting better and better by the chapter—not just the plot, but the art as well. ugh, i love emotional complexity. <33 not totally surprised by the mediocre reviews, though. i probably would’ve agreed with them if i’d ended up dropping this like i considered doing initially, but oh well. these characters grew on me, clearly!! (which is also kind of surprising in retrospect, haha.)

UGHHHH, THIS IS FUCKING TOOOOXIC. he’s literally grooming her. fuck him for being so hot, curse this shit.

aww, i feel so bad for this woman. :( she deserves the world

i’m giving this 10/10 simply because the art alone. GODDAMN THAT SMUUUUT THO!!! P.S. kinda browsed through the steamy chapters (6/6/24), but i won’t add this to my reading list as i haven’t actually READ much of it. ;) oof
