Dangan Honey

Complete | minatuki tunami | 2000 released

Really loved this, its sweet and heartwarmingly innocent. I hope chapter 11 isn't the end cause i need more. Rino maybe a child but because of that her capability of love is endless (like in chapter 8, when for Kazuki's birthday she showers him with hearts - that she worked on all night even though she's sick, to show him how much she loves him) freaking adorable or what?!?

Watashi no Shounen (Takano Hitomi)

Complete | Takano Hitomi | 2000 released

not rated it cause this has left me conflicted. what's for sure that this isn't a romance and to deem it so is doing the characters wrong and turns everything to something perverted and ugly. the kid is not only lonely he is looking for a mother figure, and the female lead has gone through something similar when younger and can identify with this kid. the love angel is ludacris not cute.

Toshishita Kareshi ni Hirowaremashita

Complete | Miyoshi Ayato | 2000 released

this is promising, not hot and heavy the sec they meet or even worst the top rapes the bottom and then after a page or two the bottom is not only in love because of the rape, but addicted to anal sex, even though he was never gay - like what?!? So hope this gets better. well what the start "promised" the author delivered, and this just got better and better, it was sweet and romantic and no force. manipulation or out and out rape. but too short cause it seems to have ended unless i'm worng - which i wish i am as this is really good and i for one would love more

Not Entirely a Father-Daughter Relationship

Ongoing | Chojin | 2000 released

i hated the "father daughter" intro and i don't like what it insinuates. this wasn't anything along those lines - i.e. not perverted or cringe worthy. Really feel for both characters and glad that even though its tough and there r loads of roadblocks and obstacles they seem to always find, and be there for each other. guess this is going to turn romantic, but as it is written it doesn't seem wrong or manipulative so can't wait for more....

Back To The Highteen

Complete | giseun,Kisun | 2000 released

this was very good, funny and entertaining, but i'm so bummed its over :( well guess will be adding this to my re-read list

Yume Musubi, Koi Musubi

Complete | sakuragi yaya | 2008 released

this was so good! i came across this after reading Himegoto Asobi, where at the end i commented that even though it was cute and basically ok the one and only character that really intrigued and stimulated me in anyway was Ryou-Mei. he wasn't only good looking but his grumpy old man stick was kind of a turn on - to me. so when i saw that there was a whole Manga dedicated to him i was psyched, and the more i read the more i enjoyed myself. this was a one off, as in i don't really like - more like i cringe when there is a huge age difference between he lovers in any manga let alone Yaoi, cause its sometime borderline weird and psycho, but this was so funny and i loved not only the storyline which was believable, that even though he was straight, given time he because of love could see himself with Ao (whats more he was still the top, as opposed to most manga's that a straight guy has no problem bottoming once he is forced etc)... anyway really can go on and on cause i really loved and enjoyed this but will stop. just add that for sure this will be added to my reread list

Konna Amai Koto, Shiranai...

Ongoing | Nishino Kiina | 2000 released

This was weird but funny, didnt get how - why he declared his love for her so soon and afterwards when he smirked and told Shibano "that he wont do such a thing.." kinda didnt know where to take that. the progression of this was to fast and after one meeting he wants to marry her a girl that's still in school? (and yeah i know that its allowed in Japan, but still weird). feels like he is an illegal immigrant looking for citizenship or something. otherwise and given them just meeting - and her age - whats the rush?

Mikami Sensei no Aishikata

Complete | Aikawa Hiro | 2000 released

this was cute and very funny, surprisingly so given the fact that we r talking about a 25yr old romanticizing a 16yr old (and yeah i know in Japan its ok, and they can even get married if they wished) but still for me, given the age difference and the fact that she is still studying was weirded out. and there were time that i was weirded-out when he kept physically holding her down to kiss or romance her - even after she gave in and admitted her love it didnt feel right. but thats me. but the fact that every time there was a sexually charged scene he turned baby like and cye and it was more funny that aggravating, thats why have no problem admitting that i really enjoyed this and will add this to my reread pile as this is worth it. and can't wait for updates.
