    I Married the Male Lead's Dad

    This love interest is possibly the most successful fusion of the best of good-boy/bad-boy charms I have ever seen. Brash, self-important and arrogant; gentle, loving, kind and compassionate; and yet still feels like a consistent character while he's at it. I am vaguely in awe of the authorial...

    Roland Roland

    I've given up and used such powers as are arbitrarily vested in me, and added a disclaimer to the description. It didn't seem like anyone else was going to. I'm sorry if I've just spoiled everyone's fun. If anyone thinks it was out of line, or that the wording is inappropriate, feel free to...

    He Is a Magical Girl

    This seems to be taking the consequences of its magical bipolar sexuality premise just seriously enough that I'm kind of tempted to add a "psychological" tag—be it his identity crisis or just the inherent uneasiness of having your feelings for someone turned on and off with a magical switch...

    Taming Master - Ch. 1

    "using the tuition money my parents gave me" I am not sure I would give up being on speaking terms with my parents to play a game. Having said that, how did the author suppose a game economy where a high-end dude farming gets $200 per hour would even work, supply-and-demand wise? :'p If it's...

    I Don't Love You Anymore - Vol. 1 Ch. 13

    This letters scene is a very interesting thing to focus so much on. Such a direct, "he'll be sorry once I'm gone," sort of moment, genuinely sad with a heady current of vindication: "You should have loved her." I have mixed feelings. It's a wonderfully powerful scene for this sort of story, on...

    I Don't Love You Anymore - Vol. 1 Ch. 11

    I think it's sweet that she wore the white dress instead of the red one, in deference to her kid sister. >w<

    The Heroine of Drayfox - Ch. 4

    This is definitely one of the better and more realistic "wait what, I'm a baby" sequences I've ever seen in these. (As an aside, my favourite of all of them was actually from some Korean martial arts strip—that I otherwise had mixed feelings about—wherein a stoic man-warrior is reincarnated as...

    The Heroine of Drayfox - Ch. 3

    I'm dubious about this "gift" that is forgetting one's memories, without option. (Though it's much better than the head-honcho god's gift to mankind in J.R.R. Tolkien's universe, I suppose, which is what my mind always jumps to when talking about dubious gifts from deities.)

    Mysteries, Maidens, and Mysterious Disappearances

    Apropos of nothing: "Mysteries, Maidens, and Missing Persons" would keep the alliteration without having the awkward repetition.

    Tadaima Shugyouchuu

    Yaoi like this always make me wonder whether to add the "sexual violence" tag or not. ...This rant brought to you by yet another "my apologies, it looked like you were enjoying it so I had thought jumping you with no warning was totally okay," yaoi manga, in other words absolutely nothing...

    This Is Obviously a Yuri Manhua

    @Aulgh: "That other Chinese yuri manhua" is a bit unspecific, but I agree that Chinese govt. homophobic propaganda and censorship sucks horrifically. I wish the largest country on the planet was not run by a bag of censorious dicks. Alas. @WanRa: I mean the title is so obviously the title of...

    Sincerely: I Became a Duke's Maid - Vol. 1 Ch. 29

    @NowhereJoker: So basically, me, in the previous post? :'p So, I mean, like, by the same token, it's already inconsistent that ladies can become knights but the "only option" other than to get married is to keep working in a maid. Are there lots of jobs available for women to be...

    Yell! - Vol. 1 Ch. 1

    Ah... good old yaoi. Love interest acting like a perfectly reasonable human being, and then, sudden blatant sexual harassment—but with soft lighting to let us know it's really romantic, of course!!

    Practiced Liar - Ch. 3

    Pfft, I honestly don't know which of them is more awkward XD

    Practiced Liar - Ch. 2

    How can a psychic understand humans so badly... XD (I'm talking about him thinking his admirer will lose interest, not the middle school bit, of course. It's patently obvious that not even being psychic would allow one to safely navigate the hellishly treacherous waters of middle-school social...

    Holy Idol

    "Rembrary, the deputy of God loved by all and the holy high priest." ...the importance of commas XD

    I Don't Love You Anymore

    I love this except for the bit where everyone, I mean everyone, is so frequently making all these little decisions for which their motivations seem just dumbfoundingly nonsensical. It's not even that the decisions themselves seem bad! Everything is headed in a nice direction, it seems. Rather...

    I Don't Love You Anymore - Vol. 1 Ch. 9

    I'm still confused as hell as to her choices, and other people's choices, and really every bit of everyone's decison-making and motives. But if I can stop my inner screaming about everyone's motivation for their actions making dumbfoundingly little sense, it's all nice. XD (And, like, I'm used...

    I Don't Love You Anymore - Vol. 1 Ch. 7

    Seems terribly unrealistic to expect/have him intervene here, honestly? In a fight like this, there's no way of knowing who's in the wrong from the outside. They're both taking verbal blows. And the crowd hasn't ganged up enough on one side or the other to merit intervening for that reason...
