Brother Complex Onii-san, Kocchi Muite
this was pretty good ^^ i would've given it 5 stars if mitsuhara wasn't as pushy as he was ㅠㅠ the feelings felt quite forced and haru looked like he was being manipulated :'> but they turned out to be an adorable couple :)) yuki and shinji looks adorable too ^^ i'm glad haru wasn't your typical brocon who would keep his brother to himself, he also doesn't have any prejudice and gave his full support to his brother <33 mitsuhara seems like a pretty nice guy, he was very supportive to yuki, he gives great advice, and he comforts haru well but the thing is that i just felt uncomfy at some parts esp when he forcibly kisses haru at his most vulnerable state :< overall it was good ^^ the plot wasn't the most unique but it is quite new and refreshing to see :DD i'm glad everything turned out well for them and mitsuhara's students accepted him for who he is <33 wish we got to see more yuki + shinji moments hehe they seemed like an adorable couple too >< the art style is pretty !! this was a good read !!
I'll Like You More Tomorrow
this was just adorable >< i love their friendship omg ^^ there was no prejudice whatsoever and it showcased your typical "one-sided" confession conflict but it wasn't the annoying type and everything just felt natural :)) jihwan was the quiet and keep to himself while chanyoung was the complete opposite ^0^ i'm absolutely inlove with this dynamic and even though we didn't really get to see them officially together i think it ended well <33 for a short story, this didn't feel incomplete at all !! it would've been nice if there was another chapter to see more of them but i think the author executed the story well esp with how they incorporated the title into the story >< i also want to add that i really liked how chanyoung's earrings played a big role in their friendship ^^ idk it was just adorable how it all started with his earrings and they also resolved the conflict through those earrings hehe (^-^) overall this was a really short yet adorable read with a beautiful art style !! i'll probably get back to this again for a serotonin boost~

omfg okay i literally binged this and it was so worth it ㅠㅠ was it amazing, hell yeah :DD was it annoying, HELL YEAH :'DD well i think this story focused more on the growing pains of taichi and kouhei esp with the both of them having their own struggles in life ^^ i think its more of a coming-of-age story rather than romance bc the plot really focused on both of their problems paired with their character development >< it was a bit heavy to read since it kind of focused on kouhei's struggles and the reality they have to face everyday but i still enjoyed it since the author did a great job of mixing in taichi's humor which brought a light atmosphere <33 i also love how realistic it is esp as a slow burn :)) we never got to see them go to second base but i'm glad that kouhei is respecting taichi and is waiting for him to be completely ready !! :> the overall plot just felt heartwarming though there were a lot of misunderstanding ?? or should i say tiny conflicts in between which kind of annoyed me (but thats just me bc i hate drama ) but it added to the realistic-ness of the story ^^ i also love their dynamic !! absolutely obsessed with the polar opposites trope~ and i just love how kouhei laughs at every single idiotic thing taichi does (╥﹏╥) he always just looks at him with admiration in his eyes :(( esp when taichi's enjoying his food i also love how taichi'es goal in life is to keep making kouhei smile ㅠㅠ like they're literally perfect for each other :'> idk if there'll be more volumes but apparently its the end already which is sad bc i kind of wanted to see more of them together after college + being more domestic and all but i was quite satisfied with the ending esp with extra of them finally going on a vacation !! ❣️ i'm just so happy for the both of them bc even though kouhei thinks he's just a burden for taichi, its actually the complete opposite bc kouhei became a way for taichi to find his true passion and he also became his inspiration to keep living his life >< i also love how taichi helped kouhei to break out of his shell~ he was able to try out new things and he became more sociable i suppose hehe ^^ he also became more confident in himself and he was also able to accept his condition without worrying abt losing his ability to hear :')) taichi made him accept and treasure his disability which is just so beautiful ㅠㅠ i still have a lot to say since a lot did happen in the story but i just wanted to focus on the couple so thats that hehe~ overall this had such a unique and beautiful plot ^0^ it wasn't even that angsty BUT I CRIED and mind you i teared up 2 times throughout reading this and it wasn't even on the sad parts :'DD this story carried me on a rollercoaster ride but i'm not complaining the art style is hella gorgeous as well !! it matches the warm vibe the story has <33 this was such a great and wholesome read !! would definitely recommend esp to new bl readers~

Muri Marriage
i didn't expect to like this bc even though i did have an arranged marriage phase i just thought this would be too forceful esp with the tradition thing involved but to my surprise they actually ended up being so inlove with each other ^0^ i love how their parents let them live together in tokyo so that they'll be more comfortable with each other (though i must admit it was still pretty forceful lol) ^^ i love how respectful chikage is !! he never forced momoki to do it until he was ready~ he even made a how-to-do list on how to successfully do it with one another >< they both did it with consent and they were also both okay with their positions which is great :)) i love how we really got to see how their feelings were formed and i really felt how much they loved each other ^^ i also like how tabata wasn't annoying and instead of pursuing momoki, he still stayed to be his bestie (ू˃̣̣̣̣̣̣︿˂̣̣̣̣̣̣ ू) i also love how chikage went back to his parents to officially ask momoki's hand in marriage and they also got married again (for real this time ㅠㅠ) overall this was really adorable and funny !! <33 i really liked how it had a great balance between the comedic atmosphere + romance side ^^ i also really love the extras ^0^ this is one of those stories wherein i'm pretty satisfied with its ending bc we really got to see it all :DD i wish we got to see more dosmesticy after they got officially married but i mean they were already pretty domestic since the beginning (≡^∇^≡) plus the extra at the end was pretty domestic too >< i'm just happy for them the art style is gorgeous as well !! this was a great read !!
Brother Auto Spot
this was great omg ㅠㅠ i'm very much obsessed with everyone here >< i love how unique the story is ^^ its not your typical tattoo artist x customer story bc there's other factors involved like seina's past and how he's actually connected to jin by his relation with touma~ it was such a refreshing plot and their relationship's pacing was great too !! i must admit it was quite sudden but come on they took it slow and i'm sure it took more time if it was irl hehe ^0^ i love how funny seina's friends are too >< they were such a great addition to the plot bc they brought in the light and comedic atmosphere :DD i love how the conflict wasn't that bad and it got resolved immediately after meeting with touma ^^ everything abt them is just adorable and i felt like their friends to lovers relationship was overall wholesome nothing changed even when they were friends bc they were pretty close already which was cute <33 and seina really resembles a shiba inu bc of how clingy and adorable he acts ^^ while jin is somehow a wolf hehe he seems cold but he's actually pretty soft when it comes to seina~ he's also not the wild type !! they really took their time and he respects seina (and vice versa !!) overall this was a great one ❣️ would definitely reread this one bc of how healthy and wholesome it is :)) the other author's works are great too so this was gold hehe the art style is also one of my faves !! so pretty this was a great read !!
