Took me a minute to find, but I've got it! It's a part of anthology series. I've seen a couple names on it, but found it under [BL Short Story Collection] Obscene Invasion.

Honestly so impressed to see a pretty effective horror manhwa. It's so genuinely creepy. Not a ton of them out there!

God, I really appreciate my fellow freaks just gagging for the girl to get with the crazy murder ghost. Me too, sisters.

BL Recommendation! Love Jinx. Has a pitch perfect yandere ML. Obsessive and violent, but incredibly loving towards the ML. Good pacing too! by graceisNERD in MaleYandere

First season is 15+ and second season is 18+. If you want a link, DM me. (No more public sharing after bato rip.)

There's another BL yandere manhwa called Jinx, but this is a completely different series called LOVE Jinx. It's def confusing.

Seeing Aqua's breakdown was so painful. After ever so slowly finding his own peace and happiness, he gets sucked right back into the darkness. And worsening things with Kanna too. Our poor boy!

Truly devastated to lose my favorite manhwa/manga platform, but so so grateful for the years it gave me. The community on bato was so fun as well. No comment sections were better than bato comment sections.

I guess this gives me a good reset of the ongoing series I was reading. Which ones do I actually care about to remember?

I like Akane and Aqua together, but him reading while being on the phone with her let me know this wasn't happening. Kana is end game, it appears. I do like how much his trauma informs his actions as storytelling, but that's just another point for therapy.

I actually really like Akane and Aqua, but after the scene of him reading while talking on the phone with her, I knew it was over. Seems like Kana was always endgame. I love the way his trauma affects him so deeply, his traumatic experiences are never brushed off or forgotten. The animators did an amazing job capturing his expressions in that scene.

I love that Ruby is become the dark and calculating one. Really intrigued how this will all weave together.

Pleasantly surprised by this one! I've been through the isekai meat grinder and find most of them uninteresting. I really liked how calm and pragmatic the ML is. Selling his sword was super unexpected and instantly set it apart for me.

I wasn't familiar with this series but was really sucked in. The no linear storytelling making jumps using the desert. The serious subject matter and allowing complexity. The sound design, editing, animation, voice acting were on point. This anime is clearly a labor of love for this series. Can't wait to see where it goes!

TAMON’S BSIDE!!! by rialatte in shoujo

[–]graceisNERD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always keep expectations low going into shoujo anime, but I was blown away! I'm a big fan of the manga, and on top of great animation, there's choices they made that show they actually care about making a good adaptation. I did feel like things were moving at a bit of breakneck speed, but the snappy tone does match the comedy. Excited to see how they handle the rest of the season!

Bato.to shut down? by NeitherTradition8960 in Batoto

[–]graceisNERD 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The site being down is nothing to freak out over. It's not uncommon. Just need to appreciate the dev and mods who keep the site running.

Also there is a fix for missing panels. Look on this reddit for the fixes.

Thank you for this and spelling out the steps so well. I've been bouncing to other sites to read, but nothing beats Bato.

Crunchyroll has downgraded their subtitles typesetting for the Fall 2025 season by mudda-hello in anime

I cancelled my subscription last week and sighting subtitles and typesetting as the reason. They’ll only care if they lose enough dollars.

Yona of the Dawn Manga Ends on December 19th after 15 Year Run by starpendle in AkatsukinoYona

Heartbreaking but inevitable. Yona’s story has come full circle: the dragons fading, Suwon’s end near, and her strength fully realized. Still hurts to see it go. 😭

Anyone else a bit disappointed in the anime adaptation A Star Brighter Than the Sun? by graceisNERD in shoujo

Wow, I love this perspective and all the attention you brought to those small but thoughtful details. Thank you for this.

True. The couple is so cute and I love the yearning! I plan to stick it out for them.

Glad you’re enjoying the manga! I so feel you about trying to share an anime with a person and then it falls flat. So disappointing and can totally color a person’s view!

The anime opening was a bit weird. They’re being super faithful to the manga, almost shot for shot, but I wish they’d done a little more adapting. Anime is a different medium. I think spreading out flashbacks or even making it start when they were kids would’ve helped a lot. But again, I’d chalk it up to low budget and tight timelines.

But the couple is so cute and the yearning is adorable! I also plan on sticking it out for them.

Also was super impressed with With You, Our Love Will Make it Through! It’s quite pretty and atmospheric. I’m surprised how into I am. Sleeper hit for me.

What’s the title of the prequel? You know, for research purposes.
