Mama Fujoushi's manga / #Childhood Friends(92)

I'm... not sure if I like this or not. I like most of the story, but the ending was awfully ambiguous. I would have liked a more solid ending. Akira DOES love Chihiro but he didn't admit it even by the little extra in the end. Plenty of "Badumps" but nothing else. Stick with the other Junko stories.

I liked their relationship but 1) I would have liked for Wataru (the okami) to actually give voice to his feelings. and 2) I would have liked to see them officially "together" at the end. Otherwise, it's really good. Also, I want to see Takagawi (?) the manager rein in that brat kouhei and take him in hand. LOL

Okay, so, this was posted in part in another manga. This is really good. I really enjoyed this one. I identify SO MUCH with Yuzuru and his lack of self-confidence. I also love that Satomi stuck to his guns about staying in Japan and I love even more how well his Dad accepted them. I thought that was REALLY well done. Not a huge amount of angst. Lovely story.

ch.1: crossdresser trans uke x seme. #twins ch.2: mother's former lover #bearded ojisan x underaged boy #persistent, #slutty uke. #age gap. suicide attempt. ch.3: bondage-loving seme x persistent uke ch.4: mousy guy #pianist x #popular straight seme. cute, open-ended with a hopeful vibe. ch.5: teacher x teacher ch.6: gay 36 yo. cafe owner x friend's straight high school son. ch. 7: despondent artist served as a model to a gifted painter instead. #love at first sight. naive seme. ch. 8: #childhood friends, Dom and sub battling for the last thread of sanity #comedy #park sex #BDSM

So, it's kind of choppy, at least in the beginning. Very short chapters. That part wasn't TOO bad, though. What irritated me was about half-three quarter of the way through when the rival showed up. Trying to tell Nanase that he was a coward when he'd ALREADY confessed (more than) once and gotten turned down. There was nothing cowardly about it. That bugged the hell out of me. He was NOT in the wrong. He didn't push Hina away. If he'd tried to force Hina to spend time together, it would have only caused problems. Eno was a fucking asshole and I wanted to kick his ass so hard. :( Overall, good story, but that part really pissed me off. I felt so bad for Nanase over that stuff. :( *hugs him*

Um... I guess it's HEA? It seems a little weird. Too short, even for a ones shot. This needed a bit more for the development. It's not explained why the cousin had such an issue with the best friend. There just seemed a lot of things that were just not QUITE enough.

Okay, this was really good. I really enjoyed the two teachers together and then the childhood friends. There were a few really angsty moments and it was good for it. Well done. :)

Not sure if it's the translation or the original writing, but some of it seemed to be a bit... choppy. I liked the story, overall. First 5 chapters are one couple (businessmen and coworkers), the sixth is a different couple (childhood friends). Some long-term unrequited love there too. Overall, despite the choppiness, it's good.

Good story. Tough in places because Ichika (the bottom) really was hurting. I so felt for him, struggling with his unrequited love and being stuck having to go through this over and over again, listening to his crush talk about girls and breaking up. Still, it was well done and I enjoyed it quite a bit.
