➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★☆ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★★ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ i didnt expect to like this !! tbh i've actually put this off for a long time now bc threesomes arent my cup of tea and i also thought that it might've been toxic since the cover radiated those vibes to be the saying "don't judge a book by its cover" is indeed true lol bc their relationship ended up being so wholesome and adorable wtf (╥﹏╥) the only thing that bothered me was the scene where ryo paid other people to do him, i understand why he did that but like that wasnt necessary :< but i mean before being involved with each other they were already insatiable people so ig it wasnt much of a bother :D while reading this, i was hoping that it will be the ML who falls in love first or the one who catches feelings first, but since we only saw ryo's pov in the first chapters i thought that "oh it's another MC falls in love with ML first" but then towards the end when akanishi was testing ryo, he was actually the one who fell for him first he even did everything just to be able to live with ryo pls ㅠㅠ the dedication go off king though if he just told him the truth it wouldn't have caused any of the misunderstanding~ but thats conflict for you this is one of the stories wherein i was left satisfied with the ending, like we really got to see them confirming their feelings for each other, we also got to see them being lovey-dovey and domestic ❣️ they also professed their love for each other hehe the extras were so freaking cute and wholesome i want to cry akanishi's clingy-ness and ryo's cold personality is just adorable to see >< even though ryo's cold, he still softens up to akanishi pls i love them this type of plot is a first for me since as i said in the beginning, threesome tropes aren't my thing :> so i'm surprised that i actually enjoyed this !! the plot was light but it also had some depth since we got to see the couple's past how they both had their own pain and anxieties/reasons why they turned to sex for comfort :< i saw some comments abt them being so misogynistic, but tbh i feel like that was bc of their past ?? i think ryo's thing of hating women or calling them noisy bc they want to wear condoms is the pain he got from his mom, its bc of the scene where his mom reminded him to never forget condoms if he doesn't want to end up like his mom which pertains that he shouldn't have been born right ?? so yea i think ryo saying those things are bc of his past :> but of course thats not an excuse to say those things, though ig thats the context as to why the author made him say those things :) overall i really liked this, the couple's relationship wasn't toxic at all ♡ i felt their connection and i love their dynamic as well <33 ryo's is the only person who can tolerate akanishi's clingy personality hehe ^^ the extras were the absolute cutest which is why i'll probably read this again the art style is so pretty too !! they both look so hot and i love their sharp features this was a very interesting and cute read !!

➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★☆ ➷ chemistry: ★★★☆☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★☆☆ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ okay i was so shocked at how promiscuous herve (alvie) was lol he was so strict, gentle, and stern in the main story that this was like a gap moe i'm not complaining though i mean ig there was a teaser of it towards the end of the first book's extra~ i rated this five (5) stars bc i enjoyed the read, it was pretty fun and ig the ending was cute too <3 but i have a lot of questions tarjel ??? like is he just gone ??? also if tarjel didnt mention anything abt yuri (uriel), herve would've agreed to doing it with him ???? i mean ig herve and vadis weren't official yet but still that made me kind if :0 but i'm glad they officially got together ^^ i love how ald calls herve "father-in-law" pls they're so adorable ㅠㅠ i absolutely adore yuri pls my ball of sunshine, hes so precious back to the main couple, if we think abt it the pace of their relationship was so slow since they've already been together (not official) for three (3) years :O thats so long lol and they only progressed bc of this incident jshdhhd the plot for this spin-off was quite simple and short than the main story, but i still liked it !! there were vague and unanswered parts but it was still enjoyable :D i wish we could've seen more of them after officially being together bc everything happened so fast and it just ended abruptly without an extra but i was still quite satisfied with it ^^ the author's art style got better as well, i feel like the characters' features got more defined they're all so pretty pls, i cant help but appreciate even tarjel's visuals also i wanted to see more of prince mandeek, i was expecting him to have an appearance and also have some progress with sheena (the teacher on the first book) but ig bc the plot focused more on the conflict and it was also quite short that the author didnt have the time to include them :< but overall i still had fun reading this ^^ this was a good read !!

➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★☆ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★★ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ ik this is a bad opening to my review, but tbh i was really annoyed at maeda like i understand where hes coming from and why he has those insecurities, but man at least put some on yagii :< i'm really glad they got to talk about it, we at least got to see some character development ^^ i love their dynamic, its pretty cute and fluffy <33 maeda is a shy and precious babie, i just wish he can have more confidence :> as for yagii, hes such a green flag hes so kind and reassuring, which is why i was frustrated when maeda kept on doubting him :< but nonetheless, i still loved the two hehe the plot was quite simple and generic but i still found it quite adorable <3 i was actually satisfied with the ending if this one but a little more wouldn't hurt ^^ also idk if their colleagues are already aware of their relationship ??? but it seems like they are and they look supportive so thats cute ❣️ overall it was pretty cute >< good read !! :D

➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★☆ ➷ chemistry: ★★★☆☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★☆ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ i didnt really like the start at first bc what shinoya did was kind of cheating right ?? he did it with izumi while he was still in a relationship, though ig both parties didn't really love each other but still that's not an excuse to cheat :D despite the first part, i still really liked this one !! it was so funny and cute at the same time ^^ i love how shinoya's cold and sometimes soft >< i understand izumi's insecurities which is why i'm glad that the author showed his character development towards the end <33 its hard but his baby steps are still progress~ ngl i wish we could see more of them but overall, i'm satisfied with the ending shinoya's brothers were so fun and the other one had a bf too~ this really deserves a higher rating, it was a very cute and fun read <33 there were no annoying conflicts and their dynamic's adorable ^^ overall, it's a good read

➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ this was pretty cute ^^ i didn't expect it to be fluffy and adorable >< the flow was just calm, i didn't feel any annoyance at the little conflicts though i did feel multiple secondhand embarrassments for tokita lol i just feel like he was suddenly being so desperate but ig it worked out at the end~ the plot was pretty simple though i did find their set-up quite unique with kayama being a closeted gay who keeps being arranged in a matchmaking system and an outgoing frivolous puppy tokita :D i like their dynamic ^^ i think i just wanted a bit more from the plot bc it was a little bit bland but i did feel their connection i just felt like it was a bit too fast for me :)) the 2nd story (oneshot) was okay, for a oneshot it was pretty interesting too so i enjoyed it ^^ the extras are adorable too <3 tokita is such a handful puppy but i just love their tandem >< esp with kayama's taste for fashion pls its so funny they're pretty cute together, i just wish there were more scenes with them being domestic and stuff (i mean there were i just wished there was more~) ❣️ overall this was pretty fun :> i totally think this deserves a higher rating !! this author's works are always filled with humour with couple dynamics that i love ^^ there wasn't any unnecessary drama and they were mostly fluffy, funny, and adorable ♡ the ending was wholesome >< i just wished we got to see more dialogues/conversation after they hugged but i mean i think that scene cleared up all the doubts in tokita's head <3 the art style is gorgeous i love clean, sharp, and mature looking men ( ´~`) this was a good read !!
