Omae ni Dakareru Nante Kittenai!

Ongoing | Natsuhara saike | 2019 released

Last read ch 31. this one's interesting. the seme is a porn star and the uke is kinda like okay that. they've made it work. Is starting to feel repetitive like all they do is sex and the drama is kinda dragging on. update ch 26. ...bro can they not just... have a conversation. it's been 26 chapters and they've been doing so good ugggghh. Also that girl kinda sucks... (Edit: it got better, I was just bring impatient) Update ch 30. Ah. More drama. Update ch 31. Bruh. I'm getting so sick of these cutesy innocent characters who think they're doing their SO a favor, but READ THE GODDAMN ROOM FOR ONCE. Your lover is clearly upset about his bro so just TALK to him before you start messing with his family relationships. AND ALSO your lover needs to start communicating about his life. Bruh these people. I'm starting to get annoyed

Konosaki wa Futarikiride

Complete | MACHIO Yu | 2019 released

Honestly love these two. Super down to earth couples. Also can we just appreciate that the girl apologized for basically making Ryuusaki come out? It's rare to get good girl characters in a BL man. 8 or 9/10

Futsuu ni Koi Shite

Nirameba Koi

Complete | yukue moegi | 2013 released

Last read v4 ch 4 Cuuuuuuute! Kinda tsundere delinquent x the cheerful, helpful student council guy who comes to genuinely love and understand the delinquent. We follow their story across 3 volumes which gives us plenty of time to watch their relationship evolve as they run into and work through various problems together. AND we get to know some of the side characters a bit. Ryuu's boss at his job in vol 3 is an absolute goat . Also shima is so incredibly patient. 9/10 this one's a gem.

Shinobeba Koi

Complete | yukue moegi | 2014 released

Bro they're adorable . I love relationships that have complicated emotional backstories. They've both been in love with each other for 10 years but the complicated feelings surrounding how they met and fell out made it hard for them, especially Toranosuke, to express their feelings. I love that by the end Tora figures out how to say wahst on his mind. There are so many little things about these two that are amazing. I love the whole thing with the rings. And also FINALLY a story that doesnt use rape, assault, or kidnapping ro create drama. The characters themselves have enough complicated feelings to make this an interesting story 9/10. Might be a 10/10 and not just cuz I'm a sucker for cool, gentle guys on motorcycles but the girls kinda sucked in this so I gotta think on it
