Shiro No Koro
Short but sweet! A boy becomes friends with a transfer student in middle school. The transfer student confesses right before he moves, but they meet up again in college.
Me o Tojite 3-Byou
Two boys are best friends in high school, both secretly in love with each other but afraid to make a move. Then one boy has to transfer to another school and they lose touch with each other for 4 years. When they reunite they discover nothing has changed and they can’t keep everything inside anymore. For once, I really couldn’t tell who was going to be the uke. While the plot wasn’t too original, the art style was great, the close ups on beautifully emotional faces were just gorgeous. Outstandingly so.

So adorable! Three couples. 1) Aoi, quiet and shy, and Tomoyuki, popular and outgoing, bond over having the same last name. Tomoyuki slowly realizes that he's fallen in love with Aoi at the same time he realizes that he has no chance of being anything more than friends. Then Aoi gets a girlfriend and the distance between them grows even more, until Aoi gets dumped and Tomo emotionally kisses him and changes their relationship in an instant. 2)Girly looking guy, Tooru is asked by his long time friend, Yuuki, to be his lover, but Tooru is frustrated by the lack of intimacy in the relationship so he tries dropping less than subtle hints. Little does he know that Yuuki was just mentally training himself for their first time and is a beast lol 3) Sasaki immediately falls for Hauka's feminine face, and is stunned to find out he's a guy with a moody personality but he decides quickly that he's ok with that and becomes a really amusing puppy seme character and hounds Haruka whenever he can to be closer to him. I enjoyed all the characters. The first couple is the sweetest but the last one was pretty funny. Nice art style too!
Shinkonsan!
The daily squabbles of a gay married couple. I like that they're actually married, but I hope to see more about how they fell in love!

Hatsukoi o Kojirase Sugiru na

Happy Ending Kuso Kurae
Stupid. Ume has been in love with Hara, his best friend and told him in highschool. They had sex but then Hara has a girl friend and has sex with her. Hara strings Ume along, fucking him and saying that he's the most important person in his life but also fucking girlfriend after girlfriend over the course of 10 years.. UGH. And Ume is not much better because he just lets himself be used! I hate both characters right now. I'll give them one more chapter to redeem themselves but that's it. UGH.
Itsuka Tomodachi Ja Nakunaru To Shite Mo
Wonderful. Tomo somehow (they don’t really say) caused his best friend, Shuu, to get his eyes injured when he was a kid. Tomo’s guilt and friendship turned into an unrequited love, which he bears with silently. Shuu and his family find out he loves someone and are all very curious. Tomo’s brother comes and visits and is jealous how Shuu replaces him in Tomo’s heart and tries to get Tomo to transfer schools. When Shuu finds out he puts his foot down. This is wonderfully drawn and perfectly paced, with many emotional moments and a perfect end!
