Kenban no Ue no Caress

Ugh! The uke is a selfish jerk!

Sono Te o Toreba

Complete | CHIBA Ryouko | 2000 released

3.5 stars. (First story 3.5 stars; 2nd story 3 stars; 3rd story 4 stars.) First one was quite a poignant and realistic portrayal of a young guy coming to terms with his sexuality, with his caring seme helping him. 2nd story was meh. 3rd was hot incest. In fact, I'd already read another yaoi with the EXACT same storyline of brothers having sex whilst feigning sleep, which was also hot but which was better written than this one, and showed them coming to terms with their feelings too, unlike this one which ends too soon. I still enjoyed this though. I'd definitely reread it.

Prince Charming

Complete | takaido akemi | 2000 released

Read this for a change to the typical fluffy, romantic, monogamous couple type stories. See how you feel about all the 'free love' being shared around. Personally, I suspect that it may actually be a relatively realistic depiction of the way young gay men act.

Ai Ni Chimayoe!

Sensei, Anata ni Chikadukitai

Complete | Yoshi,yoshi | 2016 released

2.5 stars. Typical, boring, and with a rapey start. Not awful, just mediocre.

NightS

Complete | YONEDA Kou | 2008 released

4.5 stars. I love this, and could reread many times over! As is often the case with Yoneda Kou's work, it's more mature, subtle and realistic than other yaoi. The uke is the one seducing the seme whilst playing hard to get, instead of the typical yaoi dynamic of a weak, girly uke getting pushed around by the seme. Sensei has obviously given some thought to human nature and the way relationships work.

Familiar

Complete | ootsuki miu | 2011 released

3.5 stars. Everything happened way too fast. It wasn't bad, but it needed to be longer to make those changes develop more naturally. The high point of the manga, was chapter 4, page 5, (starts last panel of previous page): #realtalk. If only the whole story had been more in this vein!
