Smartphone Boyfriend
Best manga. Needs to be re-read. Seme is a smartphone. That is literally the whole plot. Best wholesome shitpost ever. XDXD
Hate no Kouya de Vacances wo
Look.... This isn't a five, and I don't know if anything every will be. Three mini stories, but the last one hit home. The first one was a bit uncomfortable because as a kid he always came back to be raised then fall in love with Magnolia, so I don't know if that's... Good. But persoal prejudice aside ;P I'd say it touched me. Story-telling was alright. Everything made sense eventually and I was satisfied, though the ending was bitter-sweet. Second story with the beautiful guy and the guy who's into his own stuff was nice. All were short and I never felt entirely satisfied for the endings, but.... They were good. I really wished that this second one ESPECIALLY has some more added onto it after the beautiful guy was confessed to. Also, more backstory!! Was the mother really like that? What about the dad? How are they going to work together, even? I want to see that. Third was sad. Like, the ending hit me. The android felt right, to be honest and I understood this was the right way it was meant to go. I was upset but the android was the one he was spending time with and loving, so I'm not complaining. The sad reality of being on that planet all alone without a home to go back to anymore... Killed me. It was frightening. But I wish to have really seen their relationsip afterwards, between the two of them, together on that planet. I liked seeing the past. But show me the future, bro. Now, the ending line of that last one... It hit me. I liked the meaning to it and got me thinking about stuff. "My heart's not here anymore." I loved this one. Just felt half-empty because of a lack of depth into the relationships and stories.

I liked how the mystery was tied up and it honestly was a great one shot. Only thing keeping it from a four and some fives is the art and writing. Story- Good. Characters? ...Alright. They weren't really... multi-facetted. They felt too shallow. They all felt more like ideas and outlines, than personalities. The artstyle.... Honestly reminded me of some indie otome games I've played, giving this a nostalgic feel. I liked it. Though it felt too wooden and rough XD I liked it, though. Again. Shallow characters. Average, but unprofessional looking artstyle. Good, but short and bare-bones plot, with a unique mixture of BL with murder and actual story you'd see elsewhere. I haven't seen much of that, so hey. It was really nice for a change.
Ichido Dake no Uta
Ore-tachi No Kijou Jitai!!
This is a fucking MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!! There was NO rape. It was pure comedy. It was the most yaoi of the yaoi of comedy!!! The guys were fighting over who would be top (That's literally the whole plot *facepalm*) but it was in a COMPLETELY innocent way!!! The guy who ended up as Uke revealed in the end he just didn't like feeling like he was being looked down on, which is why he didn't want to be Uke, but the Seme totally understood and was like "Then ride me, bro. No problem." And BROOOO in the end Seme was like "You totally win.... 1000%" (Paraphrasing, btw, here XDXD) and I don't know what to say. Just the Uke was like a man. The Seme was like a man. They were literally totally toe-to-toe in everything and I am so satisfied. It's a comedy, so OBVIOUSLY things work here that would never work anywhere else, ESPECIALLY outside of the yaoi genre XDXDXD But it just worked SO well, that I'm in love. 10 ukes out of 10. PS: I need to find more goddamn Seke shit ಥ_ಥ
Just when I thought I came here to die
You need to be able to take a joke to read this. And to be a true, veteran yaoi connoisseur.
Sweet Tears (mio Junta)
Dude, why did I save this. This is a story which is only readable because of my numbness to being unsatisfied by past plots and how incomplete they feel. Anyway, short AS FUUUUCK but definitely a rr, because it seems to teach me a lot about what to do and what to avoid with absolutely no option of failure.
