With hopes of starting a new and peaceful school life Shuuji feels at ease when his first day starts out well.

Shuuji's first impression of Yoshie isn't good, but what's worse, is that his ideals for a peaceful school life are ruined when Yoshie suddenly recognizes him! Shuuji, a new student, has no idea how Yoshie can possible know him and frantically wonders, what in the world is going on!? O: I quite liked all the stories, the artwork was great as usual. It was cute and interesting how Naoto is homophobic. Rereading... idk what I liked about this manga tbh, it's shit. I know it's supposed to be a funny read, but it feels pretty cringe and immature how the humour merely revolves around Naoto's homophobia. Naoto seems to be irrationally homophobic, it's not explained why. The "love" between them feels super random and unnatural. What is up with C3's couple bruh. Did Shinji really just offer to have sex with his step-bro Haruki to stop his hobby of paying for sex, and did Haruki really just accept it so casually... like umm... C4 - did this Yoshie guy really enter the classroom smoking a cig??? If I had to say, the third story was by far the best, but overall this was a bad read. Would not recommend... 5-->2

O: So many feels. Gah that alpha dude marking Kei and marking it hard for Kei and Tsugitsugu ;-; Tsugi is one of my fav beta probs. Rereading... C2 - bruh this alpha dude x.x he's one crazy mf C3 - "You're very cute right now, but your worth decreases with time", cmon who does he think he is??? C4 - bruh this chapter was seriously upsetting :( Fk Ekihito, he's such an arrogant asshole C5 - BRUH DID HE REALLY SAY THAT RAPING IS NOT A HABIT OF HIS??? What is he smoking?? I'm glad this ends somewhat alright, but it still broke my heart when I saw Kei reacting badly to Tsugitsugu, it's so unfair how Ekihito gets away with this shit. Wasn't a bad read, but doesn't feel like a 5/5, was a unique premise at least. 5-->4

Mede Shireru Yoru No Junjou
P: I Thot You Was a Toad: A story of two male slaves forced to work in a brothel which caters to men who prefer teenaged boy prostitutes, and the subjects of competition and personality clashes, and personal longing in the midst of deflowering rituals. O: This is really good. Reread... Ok ngl idk why I used to like this... not really liking either of them. Kagerou is so gullible to Kichou's antics. Kagerou is so weak :/ This was quite cliche and predictable.. also there was a lot of questionable scenes 5-->3
