Yankee Onii-san o Munekyun Saseru Houhou
main story about seme in high school falling for older brother of his kouhai. it's presented as akin to the love of a shoujo manga. so he reads shoujo manga for reference and apparently uke is a shoujo fan as well. seme basically wears uke down by going to his house everyday and they date.... contains a oneshot about uni students. somehow they like each other at first sight too. the senpai uses kouhai as an errand boy.
Dad, My Lover
10+ year age gap, uke is 21. uke needs money and signs up for sugar baby website. seme signed up as well, but he was drunk and thought he was signing up for a housekeeper. after the misunderstanding is cleared up, seme doesn't want uke to go be someone else's sugar baby, so he keeps employing uke as his housekeeper. but then uke somehow falls for seme and seme likes him back..... but seme keeps not saying he likes uke, so uke is insecure and leaves. seme goes to find him at uni after a week and they reconcile. boring.
Kikoushi no Mune de Otoko wa Oboreru
main story about fancy hotel concierge and rich french artist who often stays. second story about the president of that hotel and the head concierge who used to have a sexual relationship in america. seme the concierge got transferred to japan to help set up the hotel here and hasn't come back for 3 years. uke the president comes to ask him to return. seme waiting for uke to admit he wants seme as more than a concierge, but as a man. third story is age gap. a yakuza young master and the second in command at the gang. but now they are trying to turn into a legit business. seme doesn't want the young master to see him being strict at work cuz he thinks it'll scare uke, but uke is totally fine. this one was just shounen-ai i think.
Gozen 0 Ji no Ookami Koushi
two stories. main story is uni first year student and his prof. kinda ugh don't like this dynamic. and in this case the prof is the one coming on to him. second story is about the heir of a yakuza group and uke who was taken in by the yakuza boss and raised like a younger brother of seme. it's kinda not explained how they like each other. i think this is the weakness in all of this author's stories. seme comes back from 6 years studying in america. he is taking over the group. fucks uke as a punishment for uke stepping out of line and trying to deal drugs.
Perfect Kareshi
just a meh story. not much romance. uke is talent agency scout, he has his own company but it's not doing well. he discovers seme who is working part time at the convenience store downstairs from is office. they do modelling stuff together and seme starts to become successful. kinda crazy age gap that's not addressed lol. seme is only 17 while uke is 26l
Love Sickness in a Budding Love
so meh. age gap with uke and seme first meeting when uke is in high school and uke in elementary school. uke works at seme's parents' restaurant part-time. now uke is in uni and seme in high school. the story progresses so slow and confusing. no clear development of feelings cuz author obviously didn't want to show seme attracted to a child??? and uke is so tsundere, as typical in these age gap relationships to put the onus of pursuit on the younger person to balance out the power dynamic. meh art, boring characters and story. could no longer stand it and just skimmed. they are so fucking dumb and silly. uke getting jealous over nothing but still not accepting seme's proposal to date.
Kusuburu Kemuri no Nare no Hate
they are cousins with like 14 year age gap, but it just keeps saying more than 12 lol. idk cuz it says seme is 33/34, but uke just started uni so he should be 18. basically they both liked each other since uke was a kid.... kinda wrong but i appreciate this story for exploring those taboo themes. now uke is in uni and has come to live with seme in tokyo for school. he confesses but seme pushes him away. then turns out seme wrote his debut book based on his feelings for uke and it won many awards. uke reads it and says he's not scared of seme and his feelings, he feels the same way still. they get together finally. now i'm seeing this story is from one of my fav authors. so ofc the story is really compelling and well thought out.
10 Year Of Lies
messed up shit lol. uke kidnaps seme when he's a kid cuz he thinks seme looks like his deceased son. uke gets caught and goes to prison after years. he comes out and seme is there waiting for him. seme is mad and rapes uke. but turns out uke is happy to be with his son...
Generation Z is outside of Chief Sakura's understanding
this is an interesting concept but kinda boring and kinda wtf sometimes. like what is that plot point where the seme is almost jerking off in the office and uke walks in?? and then uke jerks off in front of seme so they are even??? could have done without that but otherwise it was a nice slow paced story. i think uke is 24 and seme is 38. a considerable age gap. the points about gen z are very real lol.
