➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ i finally finished this omg >< i didn't know this was already completed and the last time i read this was probably months and months ago~ i'm so happy it finally got completed bc i really liked it when i was reading it before and the ending did not disappoint though there was a but of plot hole abt the story that julian mentioned pertaining to tetsuji's past but it wasn't really that important to the whole story so ig it was fine :D the plot was quite simple but it had depth, and the omegaverse setting wasn't your typical toxic rapey one !! the omegas here weren't treated as bad as the other omegaverses i've read :> the development of their feelings felt natural and i felt their connection esp knowing they're a fated pair~ tetsuji's friends, the owner of the resto, and even kaneda's boss were all so supportive for them which is just adorable >< their love is so fluffy and wholesome pls <33 julian wasn't an annoying character as well though his joke was a bit :/ lol but ig he was still quite a fun character though again i'm still confused with the whole kurokawa situation plus tetsuji's past (´~｀;) i really love kaneda ㅠㅠ one of the bestest and cutest babies pls D': hes so precious everyone should protect him >< hes literally a ball of fluff ╥﹏╥ i'm glad that julian helped him get rid of that annoying pervert pls leave my babie alone >:( i also love tetsuji ^^ he seems tough on the outside but hes pretty fluffy and also such a nice guy ♡ one of the best alphas out there pls !!! a walking green flag i love how they both helped each other control themselves so that nothing would lead to dubcon/rape even though they already had feelings for each other ^^ consent is very sexy overall this was so good ❣️ esp for an omegaverse !!! very healthy and wholesome <3 the only thing i want is to know more of tetsuji's past and also see more fluffy scenes of them after living together >< i also wanted to see the wedding ceremony ror !!!! but overall i'm very satisfied with the ending the art style is so pretty as well this art style is my cup of tea <33 esp kaneda's chibis hes so freaking precious ㅠㅠ this was a good read !!

➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★☆ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★☆☆ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★☆ ※ i really wanted to rate this 5 stars but why did it end so abruptly it just suddenly ended idk that just kind of bothered me ig bc we never got to see their backstory (´～｀;) for the plot, it was simple though i've never encountered this type of pair-up yet (prof x resto/cafe worker) their situation was also quite unique in a way so it was interesting for me ^^ i also like their dynamic asahi is the caring and sweet ML while yuzuru's quite serious/cold yet shy and soft at the same time >< i just wish we got to see more of them their interactions after being together would've been so cute to see D': i'm also glad that yori wasn't an annoying character, he only went back to have some closure and i'm glad they both got to move on <33 i like how supportive asahi's mom and friend is ^^ i just love supportive family/friends its wholesome ❣️ overall i liked this one ^^ it just felt quite rushed towards the end but i still feel like the story felt complete :)) i also just wanted to add that i'm glad tomoe wasn't also an annoying character lol it was a bit weird with how she had feelings for yuzuru esp when shes his cousin and also a minor but yea other than that everything was good :D i actually didn't expect to enjoy the read since it was rated so low and the comments weren't appealing as well (´ω` ;) but yea i'm glad the story surpassed my expectations ^^ the art style is also my type <33 very pretty this was a good read !!

➷ plot: ★★★★★ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★★ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ i'm so happy i got to read another sweet gem ♡ this was so fluffy and wholesome with a little bit of angst but it ended well <33 i'm happy that koutarou found someone that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with >< takano was also the one who gave him the motivation to push through with what he wanted and now he got to put up his own little resto (ू˃̣̣̣̣̣̣︿˂̣̣̣̣̣̣ ू) the plot was a bit unique since i've never encountered this kind of set-up yet ^^ what started from mere curiosity ended in a wholesome relationship~ koutarou's mom is such a sweet person too i know shes happy and proud for him up there <33 i really liked how the author wrote their parting scene bc most of the time that's where the misunderstandings and unnecessary conflicts happen, but bc koutarou was such an understanding and nice character he didn't overreact at all and he accepted it but of course deep inside it hurt him too, he never lashed out at takano which i appreciated ♡ takano is a sweetheart <3 i didn't even realize he was older than koutarou bc of how soft and cheerful he is >< hes a ray of sunshine~ i'm also happy for koutarou's part timer friend ^^ he never interfered with between koutarou and takano's relationship even though he liked koutarou :> instead he even helped put some sense into koutarou's head to make him decide on what he wants to do ^^ overall this was such a wholesome and adorable ride laced with a little bit of angst that was easily resolved with a sugary sweet ending i wish we got an extra but the ending was still satisfying hehe :D the art style is pretty too this was a great read !!

➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★☆ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ this was a pretty fun read ^^ i really liked their dynamic though i wish shuu was just a little bit more affectionate like just a little bit >< i love this dynamic but i prefer colder bottoms bc i love it when the MLs are the ones chasing them hehe :> mutsuki is adorable ^^ he's pretty persistent but it didn't really reach an annoying state :] even though shuu was a cold ML, we could still see how he shows his love and affection for mutsuki in his own ways ^^ the only part i didn't like was when he slapped mutsuki bc i don't see the reason for that :/ it was really toxic of him, but other than that they're pretty cute and funny <3 the pacing was quite fast at the beginning but there was a 1 year time skip before they officially went out so ig it was an okay pace :> gramps and haruna are adorable though we must admit gramps is a bit harsh at first, but i love his character development, how he came to love mutsuki and even became his favorite bc they play shogi together which is just adorable ♡ haruna is a sweetheart i love her <33 overall this was pretty good ^^ i wish we got to see them come out to shuu's family but i'm satisfied with the thought that shuu's okay with telling them anytime and when mutsuki's ready ^^ i'm also glad that he atleast said the "ily" word once bc i wouldn't have been satisfied if that scene didn't occur lol and i'm also glad we got to see them live together and be all domestic >< the ending was pretty cute and i love that the author cleared my doubts abt shuu bc i really thought he was saying mean things to mutsuki bc of his weight (of course making your partner feel self-conscious is still mean so i'm not excusing him for that) but yea it turns out he was just teasing him bc his reactions were "interesting" to him ಠಿ_ಠ anyway other than that i enjoyed this esp with its humour ^^ the art style is very pretty too !! mutsuki is gorgeous this was a good read !!

➷ plot: ★★★★★ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★★ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ this was so freaking adorable :< i love them so much aaaaaa >< i wish we got to see more though, i really need a volume 2 ㅠㅠ the plot was your typical neighbors trope but it was slow paced and the author focused more on the MCs growth and self realizations (?) like the flow of the story was more focused on akitoki finding himself with the help of yorito (´ω`) i love how both of them were each other's strength to move forward and pursue what they love :(( i really love mangas with slow romance like this esp when its so healthy and wholesome >< you can really feel their connection and how both their feelings grew <3 i just love everything abt them ㅠㅠ it was supposed to be just a light plot but bc of akitoki's past and all the growth, the plot had some depth which made it better to read even though we never got to see them officially be together lol i swear this really needs a volume 2 ㅠㅠ but tbh i'm pretty satisfied with the ending bc we still got to see them acknowledge each other's feelings and akitoki also got back to writing songs for fun which is cool ^^ i'm happy that they both helped each other to pursue and continue to do what they love <33 overall this was such a wholesome read ^^ i'm really manifesting a second volume bc their love story deserves one (╥﹏╥) they're so freaking adorable and they're just perfect for each other >< the art style is so pretty too !! literally my cup of tea this was a great read !!

i love this author's works omg !! this is another banger i really really love the pace of this one, i felt like this was a natural plot and it was so wholesome and adorable the art style is so pretty too !!! a great read ❣

this was so wholesome omg !!! i wanted more though but the extra NAURRRR THE TIME SKIP I CRIED ❣ tane is the cutest babie :( minoru is so sweet <33 and as for yutaka hes so precious i love him overall the pacing was good and i liked the plot and flow of the story <33 i would've liked to see yutaka getting closure with his family, as well as, him and minoru as a couple bc we only got to see tad bits of those but yea this was so so fluffy and wholesome and the art style is pretty good read ❣

this was pretty cute ^^ the interactions between the MCs were pretty wholesome :> kazuma is such a sweet puppy :)) i just think their conflict was a little bit annoying bc its a common trope and the part where yukiteru hesitated to say his feelings bc he feels like kazuma will reject him when its very clear that he likes him hello ???? the first few chapters were quite bland and a bit of a chore to read esp with that blackmailing student D: it was taken so lightly and i just don't get why it had to happen lol it was so unnecessary anyway i did love the senior teacher bc he was pretty funny and i love how he became a catalyst to their relationship ^^ (even ships them ) overall i think the pairing and dynamic was cute !! i love dynamics like this one and i agree with the comment who said they have a switch vibe bc i really think they do >< both of them can be manly and adorable at the same time pls !!! i think i needed more development though ik they didn't get together immediately but i just wanted more connection bc it looked like yukiteru absolutely rejected the fact that he'll like kazuma but then suddenly he just feels jealous (yea ik he already had some feelings that was slowly budding but i just felt like it didn't have that big of an impact) but nonetheless, this was still pretty good !! i still enjoyed and i think they became a really cute couple >< you can see how yukiteru loves kazuma now which is really cute ^^ they freely expressed their feelings which i liked <33 the art style is so pretty and adorable !! this was a good read

this is so good !! i wanna cry this is just filled with wholesome and adorable scenes >< i really love the first couple's relationship <33 it felt so natural and i love how they slowly were growing feelings and was actually mutually pining for each other~ i love how steady and mature they are ^^ also the bi representation of asao HELLO !! its not that often to see bi characters in bl so i feel represented i love how there aren't any misunderstandings and they really have good communication !! ^^ i love how supportive asao's colleagues and friends~ as well as fujikawa's mom and his editor >< i really love their inner monologues whenever they adore/admire their partner :'> and i'm obsessed abt the last panels where they exchanged lines abt asao being the work of his lifetime ㅠㅠ i literally felt butterflies bc that screams marriage and proposal ᕕ( ཀ ʖ̯ ཀ)ᕗ i just love how they always exchange words of affirmation and how invested they are in each other~ like how supportive fujikawa is with asao's baking career and how supportive asao is with fujikawa's writing career ^^ idk what else to say bc i just love this couple >< they are the standard !! the second short story is also pretty cute ^^ i love how they started out as friends and suddenly got closer to each other in a funny encounter i also love how they stopped before any dubcon happened and properly confessed and became lovers~ overall i really love this !! this deserves a higher rating bc of how fluffy and mature the relationships are >< both relationships were healthy and wholesome !! <33 the plot is your typical sleep deprived author and all but i think how their relationship developed and how healthy + wholesome they are, is what does it for me ^^ i love the extras and i love how open-minded fujikawa's mom is lol she's a queen ngl i kind of want a volume 2 for their out of the country travels >< but other than that i'm pretty satisfied with the ending <33 the art style is very pretty as well !! i've read a lot of this author's books and i must say a lot of them are bangers !! ❣️ this one is another masterpiece~ i had a fluffy and wholesome time reading this !!

i was excited to read this bc the cover looked soft and adorable and i was not disappointed >< the work delivered with childhood friends who are deeply in love with each other~ i didn't expect it to escalate to the the "helping each other out" scene lol but ig that is one of the common trope for childhood friends, though their feelings didn't feel rushed at all since it we can really see how close they were since they were little and they both already had feelings for each other but tacchan just realized it a bit later ^^ i love how wholesome their relationship is >< i love the whole vibe esp with the cafe near the sea and them being in an island~ i also love how nanami didn't stop tacchan from going to the main land <33 he told him he'll wait and even visit when he has free time which means he trusted tacchan :> and thats why i was kind of pissed at the conflict jsjkshsjhd its not the worst conflict but i just don't get why tacchan would feel jealous when nanami should be the one tbh bc he's the one who's left in the island while tacchan's in the main land who knows what he's doing at school right ?? i'm not saying he doesn't have the right to be jealous but its just the execution, i just felt like tacchan jumped into conclusions and stuff i would've liked it if the conflict wasn't that much, it kind of irked me when tacchan pulled nanami while he's on a call and suddenly sucked him and did those stuff i just felt like that was unnecessary :'> but the confession saved it PLEASE i'm obsessed with nanami's confession (╥﹏╥) his confession is up on my list of top confessions !! i love how he reassured tacchan and i just love how much he adores tacchan :(( he always compliments him and he's just a wholesome and soft guy (both of them tbh) :< overall i loved this one !! i also wanna mention how mature akane is ^^ she's one of those green flag third parties :)) she handled the situation maturely and she's genuinely nice so i'm also rooting for her~ the ending felt satisfying since we got to see them living together and being domestic though i would've loved to see them in the resto too hehe ^^ but i'm very pleased with the adorable ending <33 the art style is so pretty too !! this was a great and wholesome read !!
