Kazoku Ni Narouyo

Complete | KURAHASHI Tomo | 2016 released

This is so sweet and fluffy AAAAAAHHHHH I love everything about this. Kazuma and Chiaki have been daring since high school. Suddenly their childhood friend Tomoe turns up pregnant and then asks them to care for the kid while she goes on a humanitarian trip. Its irresponsible of her, but the whole situation just works. Kazuma and chiaki are amazing dads and Tomoe still manages to be a good mom if an unconventional one. The whole story is kinda about them raising the kid together, all three of them, in their own weird adorable way. And they have lots of support from family and friends. I love it. 9/10

Gunjou no Subete

Complete | FURUYA Nagisa | 2000 released

two friends who've always been in the same class suddenly get split up. Kai and Ren sometimes play act BL scenes but to Kai, it's no longer a joke. Furuya-sensei's works always have this grounded atmosphere to them and this one is no exception. I absolutely love it. has got that "don't wanna confess and ruin what we have" plot :D

Horeta Otoko wa Shin'yuu de

Ongoing | Tobiwashio | 2021 released

LMAAOOOOO the mama and the guys at the bar literally watching this like a soap opera HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA omg they're great Smut is 10/10. Dumb friends to lovers angst is 10/10. Just dont actually monopolize the guy that's unhealthy. This mangaka sure has a thing for those "I'm in love with my best friend and I'm scares to ruin what we have" plots but so do I lol Overall, series is a solid 8 or 9. High 8/10 for sure. Corny af, full of all the cliches and tropes I like.

Suki de Gomen

Ongoing | Okamoto Satoru | 2000 released

last read ch 19.3. uke has such bad self-esteem issues it's getting in the waaaaaayyyy just be happy come ooooon. Tbh Haruto never setting boundaries with the girls is actually the biggest barrier to this relationship going well. It's not really kouta's fault for thinking haruto likes girls better cuz he sure acts like it still reading but putting on the read list cuz IT NEVER UPDATES Lmao the day after I complain this never updates, it updates whoops
