reaction: so freaking cute, and paperbag-kun truly is a gentleman and a soft lover… i just thought his identity wouldn’t be such an important piece of the story (as he’s called “paperbag-kun” even in the title), but it was a super cute story and they’re so sweet together

storyline: a woman starts dating her dead younger sister's (arranged) fiancée reaction: oh man this was such a full story in such a short amount of chapters... the characters are self-aware and introspective and the main focus of the story is exactly their thoughts about the situation... a great read

storyline: erina is a high school girl who accidentally finds out her loner classmate, nekoyama, can transform into a cat when he’s kissed on the lips. somehow, nekoyama decides to move in with her and live as her cat, resulting in a slow(ish) burn romance review: pretty cute, nekoyama and erina’s relationship develops very naturally and i think that it was just lovely (if we ignore the logistics part of having your shapeshifter boyfriend live with you as your house cat)
