Ano Ko To Juliet
1. Main story - Ano Ko to Juliet - 9 BITIN!!! CUTEEEEE, a bit cliche but CUUUUUUTE T_T I'm frustrated that it's open ended though. Their parents still don't accept them and they're both not prepared to elope. I want to see a future version of them living happily together. Though what I like about this is how they failed to elope because they are, in essence, still children. Plus, the MC didn't blame the other dude for anything //aka the piglet//, but instead accepted that they're both still immature and that he's unprepared to support his lover in the first place. 2. Dramatic/Melancholic Boyfriend - 7 Again... cuuuute. It's totally cliche, but I loved the second portion. I love how it tackled the issue of //natural// possessiveness over your lover, and how they actually talked it out in the end. Maturity++ 3. The Funeral Ceremony of Love Letters - 10 The only story I didn't get to read when I first read this, haha. Damn sad and cute and idk. So many emotions at the same time. It's a happy ending, but it's so sad. "I will forever love Michiru. But I'd like to know more about you as well." And damn. Michiru finally ascended to heaven knowing Aizawa is in good hands. Damn. Damn. Previously read on 2015 to 2017, but I still clearly remember the stories, especially the main one... Though I did read this twice - i did remember reading it afaik, but just continued because it's cute
After School Idol
"Turn me into an idol" - some delinquent
Charisma Doll
Gotta love the mom at the end. Earn twice now that you're Sala and Sara. Hahaha~ It's a bit unfair that Sara's not getting any salary though, the pitfall of being a relative of your boss, hahaha. The only thing preventing me from giving it a perfect 5 is that it needs more chapters. It feels underdeveloped somehow >.<
Koi ni wa Mukanai Shokugyou
I LOVE how they're both mature. This author must like age gaps, lol. The manager was mature enough to resign when he started having feelings. And the idol was mature in his actions, being careful with his advances, knowing his position as an idol and that he needs to protect his reputation. I guess what I liked is how the idol actually wants to be an idol and doesn't say shit like "I'm prepared to leave the spotlight for you" but rather "I'm here in the spotlight, and I'm not gonna let you keep your eyes away from me" Still, there was a part that the plot kinda suddenly jumped. manager: i'm gonna let go; idol: *sings a love song*; manager: nah, scratch that, I really love him which is kinda nice if done correctly, but somehow it feels lacking as if the author was forced to end the manga early so she had to do that :/ I wanna know the love song thooo And totes want the merch if it actually exists
In My Closet
I just love how supportive everyone is, even the homophobic member turned out supportive and is slowly trying to change his mindset.
Miss You, Lucifer
This is so cute??? I love how they both SINCERELY apologized to each other and talked it out. Hnggghh so nice

Gokudou no Oshi Men
It was kinda funny at first, but it felt boring towards the end. A dark comedy that lacks in humor
