Ai Wa Chitto Mo Rakuja Nai
The first one was meh. Just skimmed through it. The second one is better. A lot better.
Doutei ni Ai Nante Sakebenai!
AHHHH, ansakit sa tuwing sinasabing "we're friends" "you're my dear friend" AHHHH Too much smut at the end although it was really funny and cute XD "horny gorilla" "Should I switch to contacts? ... because I can't see your expressions while doing it"

The semes look so much alike it's confusing.
Shiranu Wa Omae Bakari
The first story is a heartwarming story about 2 sex friends turning into lovers. Simple, but sweet. The second story is about childhood friends turning into lovers. The start was a bit bland, and as addressed by the story, the uke's response felt empty - after all, his response was simply brought about him not wanting to part, not necessarily because he likes the seme the same way. What I liked about this story is when the seme harassed the uke while he's asleep (kiss + light touch), and how he stopped in the middle and felt guilty about it until the big revelation that the uke was actually awake (+ the uke's revenge by kissing him while he's passed out drunk). Another likeable thing about this is how the uke actually felt scared when the seme kissed him while he's supposedly asleep - would my friend/bf actually stoop that low? Nice realistic touch. The third story is the weakest story in the anthology tbh. Whilst not bad, it's just... meh. The uke just fell in love with the seme's hands (lmao fetish), but I never actually felt how or why, just smashed onto your face. Likewise with the seme. You just know they like each other because they're in a bl. I'd actually appreciate the story even if they just stayed as friends.
All Night Long (muno)
"I don't doubt his sincerity. It's more like there wasn't enough time to show how and when he developed his feelings (the only signs were when he was so happy visiting Noboru's house and when he woke up from a nightmare saying Noboru's name)." - me in one of the comments, lmao
Retsujo Love Cross
"I love how they go from horny guys who can't stay committed in a long term relationship and doesn't want to get serious, to exactly the opposite." - a comment by someone Yeah, they both couldn't keep a relationship - the seme is afraid of commitment (he broke up with his gf because she wanted to get married), and the uke keep wanting excitement in a relationship. But at the end of it all, they find themselves falling for each other - the seme is the first to commit, and the uke finally gets his daily dose of excitement satisfied. I love the extra where it shows the seme is using a lot of lube to make sure the uke's ass doesn't hurt
Kiss Mo Dekinakatta
Pacing's off. I dislike the seme. Such a jerk.
Gelateria Supernova
What I liked about this manga is how they had to separate because they could no longer move forward with their current situation. Then they finally found themselves back at the start and could start anew :))
