• [that one w the epic art but lame af story, bl starter pack for me]
• blind play

super suspenseful and doesnt rlly run like bl, instead more just thriller and horror. wanna see where it goes + the art is gorgeous but its so tropey and is so.... like this really is a product of the bl genre huh

JUL UPDATE: rip the author is a doxxer and also it's off mangago... should check to see if it's gonna be back up in a couple of months

• sweet spot wbt MAY in prog

translations suck so bad idk whats going on real plot-wise in the story and its so clear theyre setting up a love rival plotline with the main lead being like a super douche who is just '____' the whole time like bro wtf... ur so unattractive how do u have friends... but the protag wonwoo is weirdly magnetic like idk why i keep coming back to this. its not offensive but its also not in any way doing anything new

• sadistic beauty side story wbt MAY in prog

gl and the art is so good plus the leads actually have personality and have sucky parts to their personalities which is entertaining. clearly just all abt fucking tho which isnt bad but im also not like... enjoying myself a whole lot when reading

• oh! my assistant MAY wbt

surprisingly p good almost made it to the other list, the art is sooo good but the plot doesn't rlly wrap up that well (lots of weird small loose ends) but the relationship is intriguing and though the two leads r kinda tropey a bit the setting is nuanced enough (webtoon assistant) that its p neat

• love principle wbt MAY

the art is epic but there were a lot of weird tropey story choices that are just like.... man why did u do that.... the communication was also stupid AND there was a 'ur cheating on me! oh whatttt u have a twin????' plot which was like bro.........man. anyway wish the lead ended up w his pining bff instead screw ur sex shop owner boss

• the third ending wbt MAY

this one is alright but is also pretty basic... not much to say except kanghoon is p endearing.

• false memories wbt JUL

the art is p good and the protag is nice but i also don't understand how anyone can be that nice.. also the plot is cheesy and hard to take seriously, plus both the protag and his bf have like ethically weird stuff they did... anyway i read this with my brain turned off so all i consumed was the fluff they generated

• my annoying boss is kinda... sexy? wbt JUL

realistically it makes zero sense bc the power dynamic is not cool, but the characters are likable and i'm lowkey invested unfortunately CRINGE

• 4 week lovers wbt JUL

remind me so much of setosdarkness cringe version of skk, but the art is gorgeous and they do make me smile sometimes. epic sigh

• top and bottom/big & big wbt JUL

honestly should belong in the hate crime category bc it's objectively gross a la weird boss/employee power dynamic, but they lowkey address it... but other than that it's pretty cringe ngl ughhhh

• love for sale wbt MAY

also temp. not on mangago bc author requested not to illegally upload but the relationship is nuanced as in addressing the age gap and how stilted the chemistry is sometimes bc the situation is weird af, but the power dynamic is still kinda weird man!!

• walk on water wbt JUL DRP

porn star one bc the main guy is in debt which is like... bro this situation is sus in the way it's like... this dude has to resort to sex work to pay his debts wtf. but the setting is so intriguing bc its new york and addresses kinda cultural areas, like chinatown n stuff... tbh tho the main relationship isn't interesting rlly, cos they're both p closed off

• love tractor wbt JUL DRP

art is stunning but the main pair has like... eh chemistry, esp considering the 7 yr age gap... but the prev relationship the main lead was in is soooo nuanced and p pog, and handled really maturely, so that was good. not entertained enough to pursue the rest tho

• secret therapy wbt DRP JUL

moves too fast, art is so anime-y, was not invested at all. seemed built on cliches but mostly the art was unbearable to me lol

• love so pure wbt JUL

cover art is so disturbing but the characters r legit interesting and fun, and main chemistry is p good except that pt where yohan got tattoos just to impress jihyun like.... bro i wish u knew u didnt need to go that far :(( but thats not big at all, just kinda weird to me. the cast is SOOO fun like yohans bro yosef, daeshik is an lgbt ally LEGEND, and shoot.. i forgot the girls name, but her plot is so cool and intriguing [prolly will be shaky upon reread but i like that girls r allowed to suck poggg]. main couple is charming, even if jihyuns backstory rlly surprised me bc i thought it was a feel-good romcom as usual but it got rlly sad... made me feel things and that was unexpected. also the comedy is GREAT, so many pts where i laffed. overall p good but not perfect, still gr8 tho

• k's secret wbt AUG

cover art is weird and not representative of the actual art which is a lot better, but honestly the story seems built off cliches and boss-employee relationship which as always is cringe... also i think im loki mixing up this w [its not like that] bc i havent read it in awhile so like lol. not that interesting

• even if you dont love me wbt AUG

art was SOOO good even if a bit cliche and the story was honestly eh, like the starting plot... ik if i didnt read it at like 5 am and if i ever read it again i would be cringing so hard like its not enjoyable... feels morally kinda weird yknow. classic poor dude + rich dude story, and second lead/evil guy is straight up disturbing... read the raws for a bit and he straight up murders someone!?!?!?!??!?! like WHAT? anyway author is clearly trying to be like LOOK AT THIS SCARY BAD GUY WHO CAN RUIN MAIN COUPLE'S RELATIONSHIP BE SUPER SCARED GUYS BC EVIL GUY HAS NO QUALMS and my word is it working. btw this is the 1 w the dentist bad guy. anyway story again is eh but art makes up for it

• its not like that wbt AUG

art is ok, coloring is p nice, but again boss-employee relationship which is so gross. at least this time the employee is like... well less interested? and has more agency bc 2nd source of income but still disturbing yknow. overall p forgettable, just another office bl story

• ANTI P.T. JUL

stupid premise and the protag makes a morally gross mistake in briefly choosing the second lead to fuck but the relationship is nice and they genuinely have chemistry, the main lead is pog [edit moved this from good to eh bc thinking back it was weird abt its love triangle]
