    naughty
    This review contains spoilers. I picked up I Won’t Fall for This Ravenous Beast! thinking it would be your typical fantasy romance, but wow—this manga is surprisingly fun and emotionally engaging. The chemistry between the fierce (and stubborn) heroine and the beastly yet oddly charming male lead is what kept me hooked. Their banter is hilarious, but there's also this slow-burn tenderness underneath all the bickering that makes you root for them. The fantasy setting is decent, but it’s the characters that truly shine. It’s not overly deep, but if you enjoy romantic tension with a bit of fluff and fantasy spice, this one's totally worth your time.

    really a good find
    This manga is such a warm and cozy read! The dynamic between the tall, quiet, and sweet junior and the more reserved senior is just adorable. Every time he says “I love you,” it’s so genuine and pure that it melts your heart a little. It’s not overly dramatic or complicated — just a gentle, wholesome romance that leaves you smiling. If you like soft office romances with a touch of fluff and a lot of sincerity, this one’s a treat.

    not bad
    This review contains spoilers. Okay, I didn’t expect much going into this manga, but it seriously surprised me. It’s a zombie apocalypse setting, sure, but the twist is so refreshing — the protagonist literally can’t get attacked by zombies. Like, they completely ignore him. It’s funny, mysterious, and kinda eerie all at once.

    What really got me hooked is how the story balances humor with survival drama. The main character isn’t some overpowered fighter — he’s just... immune. That alone creates a weird tension and a lot of questions about why he’s different. The pacing is solid, the art is clean, and there’s a quiet loneliness that sneaks up on you as he wanders through the world.

    Overall, it’s a unique take on a tired genre. If you like zombie stuff but want something different, give it a shot.

    similar to rent a gf
    This review contains spoilers. As someone who enjoys rom-coms with a twist, A Couple of Cuckoos was a fun and chaotic ride. The premise — two high school students accidentally switched at birth and suddenly engaged — sounds absurd, but it sets the stage for a lot of hilarious misunderstandings, awkward moments, and sweet growth between the characters.

    Nagi, the serious and hardworking male lead, constantly finds himself tangled in love triangles and emotional confusion. Erika, his opposite in many ways, is charming, bold, and unpredictable. The cast grows with more rivals and love interests, but the manga keeps things light and entertaining.

    While it does lean heavily into romantic comedy clichés, it still manages to feel fresh thanks to the quirky setup and expressive art. If you're into messy love stories with humor, some heartwarming moments, and a bit of drama, it's worth checking out — just don’t expect a quick resolution!

    unusal story
    This review contains spoilers. I honestly didn’t expect Even a Replica Can Fall in Love to hit me as hard as it did. At first glance, it seems like a typical sci-fi romance, but it’s surprisingly emotional and thought-provoking. The story revolves around a humanoid replica who begins to experience emotions—especially love—and it raises such deep questions about identity, humanity, and what it really means to feel.

    The pacing is gentle but steady, and the artwork complements the mood beautifully—clean, expressive, and sometimes melancholic. What really stuck with me was the bittersweet tone; it's not just about love, but also loneliness and the desire to be seen as more than just a copy.

    If you're into soft sci-fi with a heart, and stories that explore feelings from a different angle, this one's worth a read.

    amazing plot
    This review contains spoilers. Reading Or Something Like It felt like slipping into someone’s half-remembered dream. It’s not your typical manga—it’s abstract, emotional, and a little surreal. The art style is soft but full of subtle tension, and the story doesn’t hold your hand. It drifts between reality and imagination, exploring identity, connection, and those weird, blurry moments in life when you don’t quite know how you feel.

    It left me with more questions than answers—but in a good way. It’s one of those stories you don’t just read—you sit with it afterward, letting the mood sink in.

    Not for everyone, but if you like introspective, almost poetic storytelling, it’s definitely worth a try.

    top tier romance
    This manga is unexpectedly adorable! I went in thinking it’d be your usual school romcom, but the dynamic between the main girl and Koki totally hooked me. Koki’s not your typical cold or perfect love interest—he’s super straightforward about his feelings, and it’s actually kind of refreshing. The main girl’s reactions are hilarious and relatable, especially since she clearly has no idea how to deal with being someone’s “fave.”

    It’s light, funny, and full of sweet moments that sneak up on you. Definitely one of those feel-good reads that leaves a smile on your face.

    interesting start
    The Dragon God’s Bride is one of those fantasy romance manga that pulls you in with its mystical vibe and keeps you hooked with unexpected emotional depth. The story follows a human girl who’s chosen to be the bride of a dragon god—a premise that sounds cliché at first, but is handled with surprising tenderness.

    What I loved most is how the relationship between the two leads develops. It’s not instant love; it’s awkward, slow, and full of misunderstandings—but that’s what makes it feel real. The dragon god isn’t your typical aloof male lead either; he’s mysterious but kind in his own way, and their bond evolves beautifully.

    The art is dreamy and elegant, especially when it leans into the fantasy elements. There’s a quiet charm to the whole thing—it feels like reading a soft fairytale with a touch of melancholy.

    nice sweet adorable story
    Okay, I’ll admit it—I started reading this for the drama and stayed for the surprisingly sweet romance. Branded a Villainess and Cast Out, I Was Captured by the Intimidating Emperor’s Devotion?! sounds like your typical isekai/revenge setup, but it delivers way more emotional depth than I expected.

    The female lead is strong, graceful, and easy to root for. She’s wronged and thrown out, but instead of falling apart, she finds herself wrapped in the care of a cold but secretly tender emperor (and yes, the contrast is chef’s kiss). Their chemistry is slow-burn, and watching the emperor's devotion bloom is super satisfying.

    It’s dramatic, fluffy, and a little over-the-top—but that’s exactly the fun of it.

    interesting
    I picked up You Want to Break Off Our Engagement? Well, You'd Better Break the Bank! expecting a dramatic revenge story—and wow, it did not disappoint, but it was also way more fun than I expected.

    The female lead is an absolute queen. When her scummy fiancé tries to dump her for someone else, she doesn’t cry—she brings receipts. Watching her confidently flip the situation (and the finances) in her favor was super satisfying. It's the kind of story that makes you want to cheer out loud.

    The plot is fast-paced, the banter is sharp, and there’s a perfect balance of sass and smarts. If you love strong female leads and a bit of petty justice done right, this manga is a blast.

    absolutely adorable
    Okay, I picked this up thinking it would be your typical cold-male-lead romance, but wow—this story is adorably frustrating in the best way.

    The male lead insists he won’t fall in love, yet he’s constantly doing the most sweet, overprotective, and downright affectionate things. It’s like watching a tsundere prince lose a battle he doesn’t even realize he’s fighting. Meanwhile, the heroine is lovable, patient, and smart—she doesn’t just sit around waiting; she holds her own.

    The banter is fun, the romantic tension is top-tier, and honestly, I’m hooked on seeing how long he can keep pretending he’s “not in love.” Spoiler: he absolutely is.

    nice story after a long time
    Honestly? I picked this up because of the ridiculously long title—and I stayed because it’s surprisingly wholesome and fun. The main character, a redheaded witch who’s been labeled useless, is super likable. She doesn’t have flashy magic, but her herbal knowledge and kindness totally shine.

    What I loved most is how she doesn’t wallow in self-pity after getting fired—she just quietly proves everyone wrong in her own way. The royal institution setting adds some light fantasy politics, but nothing too heavy. Plus, there’s a slow-burn romance vibe that’s really sweet.

    not a bad start
    This review contains spoilers. I picked up Seems His Highness Found True Love Again thinking it’d be just another royal romance, but it surprised me with how sweet and emotionally layered it turned out to be. The story revolves around a prince who’s supposedly moved on—but the way the past and present relationships are handled adds unexpected depth.

    The main characters have real chemistry, and I loved how the female lead isn't just there to be a love interest—she has her own strength and charm. There’s a nice mix of romantic tension, court intrigue, and emotional growth, all wrapped in beautiful artwork.

    It’s not overly dramatic or too fluffy—it hits a nice middle ground that keeps you hooked. Definitely worth reading if you like second-chance romance with a royal twist

    totally wort investing
    The Ogre’s Bride took me by surprise. At first, I thought it would be a typical monster romance, but it’s way more emotional and beautifully told than I expected.

    The story follows a human girl who’s forced to marry an ogre, and while it sounds like a dark fantasy setup, it quickly becomes something deeper—about trust, acceptance, and finding love in the most unexpected places. The ogre isn’t some cruel beast; he’s kind, respectful, and honestly more human than most human characters I’ve read.

    The art has this soft, almost storybook quality that fits the emotional tone perfectly. And the romance? Slow, sweet, and surprisingly touching.

    very good start
    This manga totally surprised me. I picked it up for the beautiful art and fantasy setting, but I stayed for the quiet strength of the main character. The mix of court intrigue, spiritual mystery, and gentle romance gives it a unique, almost poetic vibe.

    The priestess herself is such a calming presence—graceful, wise, but not without vulnerability. Watching her navigate the complex politics of the inner palace while staying true to herself is genuinely satisfying. There’s a sense of elegance in every panel, and the worldbuilding feels rich without being overwhelming.

    It’s not action-packed, but if you enjoy slow-burn stories with emotion, atmosphere, and a touch of magic, this one is worth reading.

    not bad
    “New Normal” caught me by surprise. It’s set in a post-pandemic world where masks and social distance have become permanent—but instead of feeling cold or dystopian, the story feels oddly intimate and real.

    What I loved most is how it explores human connection in a world where touch and closeness are rare. The main characters feel so genuine—awkward, cautious, but craving warmth. Their slow-burn relationship is filled with quiet moments that hit harder than dramatic ones.

    The art is clean and expressive, and the emotions are subtle but powerful. It’s not a flashy manga, but it sticks with you.

    hot read
    I’ll admit—the title definitely caught me off guard, but once I started reading My Employer Gets Turned on at Night..., I realized there’s more to it than just the provocative name. While the story leans into mature romance, it also explores the growing emotional bond between two people who start off with a professional relationship and slowly develop something deeper.

    What I appreciated most is that the romantic tension isn’t just for show—it’s supported by real character development. The employer is surprisingly reserved and complex, and the assistant brings a gentle charm that balances the dynamic really well.

    sweet story
    The Princess Groom took me by surprise—in the best way. At first, I thought it’d be a typical role-reversal fairy tale, but it’s way more than that. The female lead is strong, funny, and totally in control, while the male lead is sweet, kind-hearted, and refreshingly vulnerable. Their dynamic flips the usual “prince saves princess” trope on its head, and it’s honestly so fun to read.

    The art is clean and expressive, and the chemistry between the two leads is adorable without being over-the-top. It has the perfect mix of romance, humor, and emotional depth. If you like stories with empowered heroines and soft-hearted love interests, this one’s a gem.

    wholesome romance
    This manga was such a fun surprise! I Can’t Drink With Aoki is light, goofy, and honestly super relatable if you’ve ever had awkward social interactions (especially around drinking). Aoki is the type of character who overthinks everything in the funniest way possible, and the dynamic between him and the people around him is pure comedy gold.

    It’s not a deep or dramatic story—but it doesn’t need to be. It’s the kind of manga you read when you want to laugh, unwind, and smile at how ridiculous yet real social anxiety can be. Think slice-of-life meets awkward adulting.

    one of the best revenge story
    This manga is pure catharsis. Watching a kind, noble family get betrayed and then rise from the ashes to get revenge? So satisfying. The story doesn’t waste time sugarcoating things—you really feel the injustice, which makes the revenge all the more rewarding.

    The main character is intelligent, composed, and not afraid to fight back with both grace and strategy. It’s not just about petty revenge—it’s about restoring dignity and making people pay for their cruelty.

    The pacing is tight, the drama hits hard, and the villains are deliciously detestable. If you're into noble revenge plots with a strong female lead, this one's a must-read.
