Youkai Apato no Yuuga na Nichijou
I'm so grateful I bought the first volume. If not, I would never know how great this manga is. I love the art, simple yet beautiful, especially the cover. All of the characters are so good looking especially Hase. He's got soft face yet could turn into a badass one if he's mad. And there's this cute and tough MC Inaba. I love Inaba and Hase's relationship. They're childhood friends, yet they act like... ehem, boyfriends. No kidding. Two men "nyabuk" while riding a motobike. And then sleeping together with the super cute Kuri. Like a fucking happy family. Chapter 14 and 15 are heavenly. Just when I thought "Just jump on him," and then next page, Inaba really jumps on Hase while crying! And when they sleep side by side forming a kanji river, I thought of a happy family, and then Hase really says they are like a family, with Hase as a father, and Inaba as a fucking mother. What the hell. This manga will be the death of me. I'm craving for more. More of Inaba and Hase because I love this pairing so damn much. The adventure in the Monster Apartment is also very interesting, it makes me think of supernatural things in a completely different way. I like Ryuu-san, too. He's so damn beautiful and charismatic. I love it a lot. Can't wait for more. 9 9.5 10 10
Usotsuki Boyfriend
If it were a yaoi, I would give it full 5 stars. But, it could change too, if Yuuto end up with Daichi. Fuck, they're just too adorable. I've been bearing rolling my eyes since before Daichi made appearance because all those women are so slutty and bitchy. But the shounen ai feels have been felt ever since the first chapter. Daichi's appearance makes it even better. I love their moments here, especially when Yuuto approaches Daichi at a beach. "If you were a girl, it would be perfect." Yes, Daichi wants him as a girl. And then "Do you cook well?" "Kind of." and then, "World can be unsatisfying sometimes." He really takes a liking on Yuuto! And then there's school's moment too, where Yuuto didn't know that Daichi moved there. "Why didn't you tell me you moved here?" "I tried to mail you many times but you didn't reply." "I didn't have many times at hands, I'm sorry.".... with all those BL vibes and sparkle, oh my god. and then there's this Daichi "I also brought brother-in-law this ****" to Sasaki brothers. Who is he married to? It's definitely clear that Daichi really likes Yuuto. And it's tagged as shounen ai! My dream comes true! But in recent chapter there's a childhood friend of Yuuto comes again. Ugh, bitch, don't get in the way of Yuuto and Daichi! Just fuck off already! 10 9 9 9.5
Ilegenes
One word: AMAZING. I don't know this manga could be this amazing. It has everything, great art, strong lead character, twisted plot, perfectly planned storyline, hot guys, geniuses, just everything. Fon and Jacques really make a great couple. I know from the tag that this has some bromance vibes but I can't believe this has so much deeper. It's like BL with no kiss scene. I mean, there are a lot--A LOT--of moments where they show affections even without saying I love you. For example, when Fon tries to suicide, and then Jacques saved him. There are confession. "I hate it when you're not here." "I don't want to go back to that room without you." "There's only you..." "I won't let you go..." It's obvious, right? Jacques really loves Fon, from whichever side people will look. The intimacy is just too much to make my heart clenched. I just hope at least they would kiss at least one, passionate kiss. Or not, a single chaste kiss. They're too real it hurts too see this manga isn't even tagged as shounen ai. And I'm not talking about the romance only. The plot is great, about artificial beings. In Ilegenes, an island which is resemble as Sodom from being so malicious, some people try to purify this island from that crime. So here it is the lead main character: Fon, begins his battle. He's got everything: super good-looking face, and also perfect brain. He also has such a good attitude and personality traits. But then, everything becomes so twisted when he learns the truth. Yes. Chapter 23 and 24 are so much a turn around for this manga. A lot of truth being told, and even Fon's personality becomes so twisted and the changes. But then there's still Jacques. He's got his back. He turns the troubled and bewildered Fon to his sanity. Then... everything will continue as they face the battle ahead. 10 10 10 10
Ilegenes - Giyoku no Koukyoukyoku
I've never hated any female character as much as I hate Gabriel. Seriously, that girl is just a fucking annoying bitch. I've hoped this manga will be better and even have more and more BL-ish moments, but I'm wrong. Why does it have to be that girl. I hate her, so arrogance, so annoying. Just know your place bitch. And I also have some complaints about the art designs. Yes, overall it's the same, but not for Fon's. His eyes are supposed to be bigger than in here. He looks more mature now. Not that I'm complaining about his age, I know he's growing up, but his aura as an uke is decreasing! Oh, also that girl's appearance is just like a copy-cat of Fon's. Seriously, I hate that bitch to death. She takes a liking to Jacques, acting so lovestruck it's so damn annoying. Jacques is only for Fon. Full stop. I'm so irritated by the decreasing amount of BL moments. There's only one as I remember, that's when Jacques was having a nightmare about Fon committing suicide, and he couldn't save him. Yes, afterward he's in fear of losing Fon. Hugging so tightly and never let go... "Are you alive? You're alive right?" Oh goodness, that's so deep. And then, when Fon has no confidence in attacking Gabby, Jacques says "I will protect you," GOODNESS! a single but honest "I will protect you" is way more powerful than ten of "I love you"s! Seriously! I wish to see more, yes. I'm still hoping for the better chapter. Nicholas is now siding Gabby, and if it's true then in the future he will be the villain in the novel. Yes, I've read some spoiler of the novel. It's sad that Fon and Jacques are no longer together in their mission after Fon's elected as a president, even Jacques says that he doubts Fon... Fon, who feels betrayed, of course can't believe that. But then, Fon protects him, twice, taking bullets for him. Yes, he still loves him, how couldn't he? This pairing will be the death of me. Please, just make Gabby die! I hate her gut! Such a disturbance for Fon's and Jacques's relationship! 9.5 9 9 (I hate Gabby to death) 9
Setsuna Graffiti
A manga by Hinoki Kino, the artist who drew No. 6. The art is so similar to that manga I thought I saw Shion at first page. But overall, this manga is interesting, even though a bit slow-paced and boring. The concept is great, I was fooled thinking that it had something to do with deity/good of fireworks. It's actually about fireworks technician. The lead characters are cute and good looking, even though the relationship development between them has yet to be seen. Still, it's pretty interesting. Hope to see more. 9 8.5 8.5 8.5
Boushiya Ellipsis
It's pretty interesting. The concept is pretty original: the hat that can grant every wish. A bit more like a shounen ai manga than shoujo one. I like the character design of the hat maker, even though never expected he could be such an idol fan like that. I hoped he was cooler and way a sadist, but well, what's done is done. The plot is pretty good, even though not really wow. I wish to see more of their moments since they're pretty lacking. But it hasn't been updated since forever so perhaps I have to have my own magic hat to grant my wish. 8.5 8.5 8.5 8.5
Silver Diamond
Chapter 81 (22 December 2015) Genre: Action; Adventure; Comedy; Drama; Fantasy; Mystery; Shoujo; Shounen Ai; Supernatural Summary: Rakan lives alone, and the plants in his garden grow so thick and fast that it seems like a jungle. One day a man, holding a gun made of wood, falls right down into his garden. He seems to come from another world, and he's searching for someone who can bring back the green into his own dark and inhospitable world. Best manga ever! I had underestimated this manga since the cover looked old, but now, I realize that the quote "Don't judge a book by its cover" is really true. Yes it's super amazing. Looks like another masterpiece of a mangaka. My another favorite besides Ilegenes. But, it's different because there's a shounen ai tag here, even though they don't kiss, but their relationship is just too cute and too precious. Rakan is kind of an ordinary uke with a cute face and strong personalities. He's just too kind to other people, I wonder if there's really a person in the world like that. And Chigusa... Ah, I can't begin to describe how I adore that man. So cute. So... handsome. And so, so hot. There are a hell lot of moments between them, and fortunately, really fortunately, I screenshot them so that I could fangirl again someday. I know they love each other, romantically, and there's even words "I like you" "The one I love" "I will die with you" in this manga, and they're just making me melt. The thing is, everything about this manga is perfection. The couples: Chigusa x Rakan, Kinrei x Prince, Kazuhi x Tohji, are just so damn cute. I've got a looot of favorite characters there. I love them all. Never regret days full of reading this masterpiece. 3.5 5 5 5

Chapter 13 (14 January 2015) Summary: A story of two half brothers, Robert and Emile met each other just three years ago when they both started working for the emperor. Robert was promoted to captain of the Royal Guard at the young age of 17, while his younger brother Emile remains a Royal Gu A cute story about a certain pair of brothers in a random Kingdom. Super cute. I think Robert and Emile's relationship is already more than so-called brothers. And their obsessiveness towards each other is just too precious to be left behind. Love it. 3,5 3 4 3,5
