I Thot You Was a Toad's manga / #salarymen(22)

Aibou No Jouken

Complete | minase masara | 2010 released

A sombre reunion between Yuzuru and Daisuke, two former lovers who parted when Daisuke decided he wanted to become a professional athlete. It was Yuzuru who left, mysteriously, and now that Daisuke has had to abandon his dreams of playing professional baseball, and is divorcing his wife whose loyalty depended on his status in sports, he is forced to confront the past. The first chapter ends poorly, but the rest of the story improves.

Otodokemono Desu!

Complete | fuduki atsuyo | 2011 released

(1) A cutesy courtship between a bashful company president and a sunny delivery man. (2) The angel of destiny screws up tying a red thread on the pinky of a lonely 30-year-old virgin so that they can have sex together. (3) A competitive entry-level salesman uses the thought of sexual power over his sempai to aim for first place in the company. This one's quite sexy. (4 and 5) Schoolboy idiot couples. (6) A salaryman, constantly harassed by his Shachou at work, a man who was his sempai at school, decides to turn the tables and accept his offer. (7) The same couple decide to actually do the deed, but end up having hallway sex in front of a mirror. Most of the stories are fairly stock, although the third one seems more memorable to me. I wish there had been a continuation of that one instead.
