I Thot You Was a Toad's manga / #oneshot(66)

You reap what you sow.

Lots of woo and sparkles, but otherwise pretty chaste.

A sweet little oneshot about a schoolboy whose friends play a cruel trick on him, and the other schoolboy who turns it right around and makes it all okay.

Hiroki and Ryou are seniors at the same high school, neighbours in the same apartment building, and both raised by single parents who love each other. Another thing these young men share is an attraction that only Ryou expresses because Hiroki feels he has important reasons to repress it, flipping the blame for this choice onto others. With a grim start and no happy ending, Hidaka Shouko's keen insight and perception provides us with a clear look at a young man whose pride, obstinacy and orthodox purview obstructs his own happiness and of everyone around him.

Masaya, who eats Suburu's meals and messes around with girls at his apartment, is completely clueless about Suburu's feelings. Suburu wants this to change.

Classmates share drink bottles. Schoolgirl gets jealous. Cute story.

Daisuke, fresh from a recent business success, is aware that something has been troubling his childhood friend and colleague, Igarashi, who won't confide in him, even though he defends Daisuke against some jealous associates. The answer that Daisuke thinks has been the problem — a transfer to a distant province — turns out to be something completely unrelated. This short and sweet oneshot by Kojima Katsura is part of a larger manga volume: Seito Kaichousama no Pet.
