Outsider Communication
Bokura wo Hedateru Ao to Shiro
i like the setting and the atmosphere of the story. The characters are pretty flat and the seme just gets what he wants and doesn't take time to consider the feelings of the uke. It was okay, ya know, kinda basic but also nice in some ways
Akai Ringo no Nakami Jijou
Yuya is a transfer student who has been unable to adapt to a new class because of his difficulty in getting along with people and also due to a complex that he has been trying to hide. He thought he was used to being alone and was ready to live his life that way at his new school, but his charismatic classmate Keiji plans otherwise! it is cute, i am interested to see how it develops.I can see myself really liking this one. It's cute and laid back, simple, but also a good plot.

This was a good story, it was pretty short and sweet, but still made me feel like the characters had an actual connection. Things didn't happen too fast, it happened fast enough. This story is about childhood friends. They guy that you are made to believe is the seme ends up being the uke. The seme was even surprised that he wasn't the uke. The uke (the actual one who u think is the seme) gets in the way of the seme's relationships with girls and tries to break them up, and he has always done this. A lot of the story is the reader seeing this with current and past relationships. The uke tries to make the seme jealous and all that. Yeah, it was a good read.
Blue Lust
Emotional, sad, but also happy. Made me cry a bit. Hayato and Soma. Hayato caused his best friend from childhood to be bullied. His childhood best friend is gay and confessed to Hayato when they were young. Hayato told his friends and it spread around their school. The childhood friend tried to commit suicide in front of Hayato by jumping off the school roof, but he lived. Now, in highschool, Hayato sees someone on the school rooftop leaning over the railing, thinking that they are going to jump. Soma is a transfer student and they become closer after meeting. Soma develops feelings for Hayato and kisses him. Soma panics and tells Hayato not to tell anyone, he looks panicked and scared. He doesn't believe that Hayato will keep it a secret. Hayato tells Soma that it is not gross and abnormal to like men and Hayato supports Soma and helps him open up more to others to build friendships. Through the story they go through ups, downs, downer downs, and more ups. The story was much deeper and more emotional than most yaoi. It was very good.
Dekoboko Sugar Days
Added to "re-read". Write something about it Dark haired guy used to think “I will protect this kid”. Now, that kid has grown to be very big. When the dark haired guy helped the guy (blonde) when he was a kid, he mistook him for a girl. The kid’s parents said that he often gets mistaken. The dark haired guy said “and so fell the curtains to my first love”. After that incident, the blonde guy became attached to the dark haired guy. The dark haired guy says “my first love should have ended back then, but I think my freakishly tall 180- some childhood friend is adorable.” The dark haired guy has a height complex and wants to become taller. A short freshman girl has her eyes on the dark haired guy, and she goes to confess to him. When the dark haired guy starts experiencing jealousy and sexual thoughts of his childhood friend, he starts to avoid him. When blonde boy is in class, a classmate tells him that the dark haired guy has been walking home with the freshman. When the blonde guy was younger, he used to think the dark haired guy was his prince. He told his older sister that a prince came to save him. She said, “princes don’t save boys”. She told him that he is not his prince but someone he admires. When the blonde guy finds out about the girl, he starts thinking of how the dark haired guy would act towards a girlfriend. When he pictures the dark haired guy in a sexual scene, he pictures himself in the girl’s position. The blonde haired guy wants to see if the rumors are true, so he decides to take a peek. When he sees the girl walking with dark haired guy he starts to follow them. He sees the dark haired guy smile and he thinks of how he only looks upset or looks away when he is with him. This thought makes the blonde guy start to cry. While is his walking, the blonde guy falls into the gutter that the dark haired guy had saved him from when they were little. He tries to get out, but his legs appear to be stuck. He makes a sound and the dark haired guy hears him. While he and the girl are walking he says “sorry” and “I’ve got my answer”. He goes to find the blonde guy. The blonde guy sprained his leg. He helps him out and carries the blonde boy home on his back. The blonde guy tells him that he has always been cool, since they were young. They both realize their feelings for one another, but both of them think that the other only sees them as a childhood friend. They tell their friends that they have someone they like. The dark haired guy’s friend guesses that it is the blonde guy when he says that they are child hood friends. Then the friend tells the dark haired guy that the blonde guy also likes him and that it is obvious. The two finally tell each other how they feel. I really like this story and I love the way the characters look. The seme is really cute, I love his design.
Kimi wa Jun'ai ni Fusawashii
Off the bat, kind of strange. It reads weird. don’t know if thats the story itself or the translation. I don’t like the way that the omega talks about himself in the third person. It makes him sound alien. For example he says “why did you hit yuzu?” (yuzu being his name), instead of “why did you hit me?” I am not a fan of that. Makes it seem like they are dumbing down the character for that clueless/ dumb/ innocent character trope where the love interest has to “show them the way”. sort of thing. This story is also omega verse, where omegas are typically portrayed as weak, so this dumbing him down thing just makes it worse. Yunus brother is an alpha and he attacks him, and his mom is mean to him, so to stay away from his family, Yuzu bums at other peoples houses and will exchange the hospitality for sexual favors. During school, yuzu ends up going into heat and a crowd forms around him. The alpha love interest of this story saves him and takes him to the nurses office. Yuzus brother pierces his ear and rapes him to “relieve stress”, as said by yuzu. This story is very messed up.
Hetakuso Love Step
I really enjoyed this story. I have read Sugar Dog by the same author and that story is also really cute. In this story, A dark haired shy guy is asked my his female friend if he could fake being her boyfriend to get this player guy to leave her alone. He doesn't want to, but since she already showed him a picture of the shy friend, he doesn't have much of a choice. He meets the blonde player guy and he wants to talk to him saying "you're so and so's boyfriend, right?" When the player starts asking personal sex questions about his fake girlfriend, he tells the player that they haven't done it. The player asks him to go to the bathroom with him, leads him into a stall and then confronts him about what he said saying that normally a boyfriend would get mad at someone who spoke like that about their girlfriend. "you're not actually dating, are you?" The shy guy thinks he's gonna get beat up, but the player says he wants to hang out with him. He wants to teach him about sex stuff. He starts making moves on the shy guy and it does seem rapey at first but then the blonde player guy does ask for his consent and whether or not he wants to continue and the shy guy does consent saying he wants to know what it will feel like. As "friends" who keep sleeping together, when they shy guy starts to develop feelings, he is afraid that he will end up being hurt. He starts to fear this and before the blonde player can dump him, he tells him that he no longer wants to go along with him. To this the player says "I'm done". It takes this for the player to realize that he does like the shy guy and that he does want an actual relationship. They confess and it is very cute.
Terano-kun to Kumazaki-kun
Student council president x delinquent. They met when a teacher asks the prez to check up on the delinquent. The Prez shows kindness but the delinquent always responds coldly. As the Prez keeps trying he starts to see a different side of the delinquent. He starts to see his cute side. The Pres starts to find himself blushing around the delinquent and has a desire to touch him. The delinquent starts blushing around him too. As the school year ends and thoughts of a new year and being in a new class without the delinquent rise to the surface, the prez goes for it an asks the delinquent to go out with him. I thought this story was very cute, just like the other works I have read from this author. The art is always so good and the characters always look so cute.
