Hito ni Ienai Aidagara (Yukimura)
Two men who met on a dating app and claimed to be twenty are in for a shock when they fall in love and then discover they're actually a teacher and student from the same school...with a nine-year age gap. Stepbrothers confess their love in the face of a divorce. (Features the best friend from story one.) A guy falls for his barber. (Super short.) Something about coworkers. I was also a science nerd so I liked the extra. :-D
Mie Hariatte Surechigai
An office worker constantly harassed by a coworker...and others. This must not have made much of an impression because I remember nothing about it.
Work In
A style similar to Yoneda Kou, both in terms of the art and the way characters are developed. LOVE. An office worker shunned by his coworkers for being gay falls for his new manager The guy he ditches at a bar falls for a cigarette store owner down the street who has an adorable daughter
Koiseyo Sennen Neet
A drowning man ends up in a fairytale when he’s rescued by Urashima Tarou and goes to live at the bottom of the sea. Tarou has been there for 1000 years. It’s finally time for him to return to the surface, but he’s afraid to age. Features a side story between the turtle he saved and a seahorse. If they had been the main story, I might have given this five stars.
Chou to Hana no Kankeisei
A new company employee falls for his senpai and discovers he’s an M. And others.
Itadakimasu, Gochisou-sama
A 31-year-old discovers a 19-year-old sleeping outside on Christmas and gives him a place to stay. I like other works by this author but something about this isn’t clicking with me. I got bored by the third chapter and dropped it. ETA December 2021: Gave this a second shot and made it through to the end. I never did care about the main couple, but the second couple in the house had a touching backstory. I raised this to three stars because of them. If the story head focused on the two of them running away with each other, with the others as a backdrop, I think I would’ve preferred it more. There was no emotional build on the main couple. We were told they liked each other, but I never really saw it, and the ex being brought in was too quick.
Kataomoi To Parade
I didn't expect the story to go this way and was pleasantly surprised! A guy has been in hopeless love with his childhood friend for years, only to finally confess to him. And it...actually goes well. Head's up: This is also the one with the girl in love with her brother. He gets a boyfriend, but she goes on about it for a while.
