i read almost 60% of manga recommended here.
i cant help to comment about how depressed i am reading blue friends. the angst element is too heavy that im felt sorry to mizusu when she helplessly, continuously show her love towards the "perfect" ayumu but never had her love properly returned.the ending left me unsatisfied at the end..the angst weighing here is almost same as what in citrus..
but thing goes differently in kimi koi limit.it has it own angst element but it elaborated in pleasant way and wrap up with the great ending..at least one love towards another is properly being returned.
my depressed is then being healed with cross heart. at beginning it has some depressing plot story and the art is kinda gloomy. i dont care, believe in my guts and continue reading. the luck is on my side when the story just got better upon chapters and the ending is quite heartwarming and pretty good too..
Heh, my problem with angst is that I tend to not care for it in general. Everything comes off too obvious as drama fuel to the point that it becomes nonsensical, also when it last longer than 1 or 2 chapters it already feels like a drag and just wanna skip ahead to where something finally happens (sometimes nothing happens)... or just drop it if I don't care enough to even try... Guess that is why I mostly have one-shots with those tags cuz those just go by fast xD
Did get a bit of that from Cross Heart, but the sweetness and "healing" feel of it made me like it (wish it was longer and not so fast paced).Don't see many of those around here tho.
i read tropical girls too...yes it has many love affectionate scene but i cannot really felt it because it doesnt had any background story behind it..so i guess im not the fan of this kind of story ;0
Well, that is the nature of one-shots, tropical girls is essentially a compilation of em. You won't get much of the kind of stories you are looking for from one-shots.
@psychopath..i dont find girl friend beta manga here ;(
It's an anime sorta like promo material for a game where you ermm.. have a girlfriend...
It's not yuri btw, but ppl get the feel of it out of subtext and lack of male MC.
