riht.

Complete | Isiki | 2019 released

I... I was confused the whole time. Is there a prequel to this? Did I miss something? There was a lot of poetic...ness in this one that kinda obscured the meaning of... anything? everything? The only way we know theres two characters are in love is because they're in a BL, otherwise I wasnt feeling it. They barely talk ever. Also the MC suddenly brings up their mothers at the end and I still dont know why? I either missed everything or the story sucked at conveying its meaning 3/10 too much poetry

Crossing the A.U

Ongoing | Sangae | 2019 released

Horny guy starts world jumping through every erotic fanfic hes ever written of himself and his childhood friend crush in a literal fever dream. They he wakes up and fucks the real one. Basically a pwp. It was boring. The uke was a rich, whiny brat and the seme was a blank slate. The smut was bland for the most part and extremely repetitive as in the same potions, same shot for every scene. 3 or 4/10

Private Love My Actor

VA uke thirsting over the hot actor he'll be starring in a live action film with. Mr. Hot Actor seems interested too (¬‿¬) especially when he catches the uke masturbating on video call and initiates some phone sex. Ths drama is kinda contrived. Makes no sense and relies on these most typical BL misunderstanding. 5/10

Kimi wa Hiniku na KiraKira Boshi

Uh bubbly kinda actor x serious kinda actor. Uke accidentally overhears seme getting dumped (by the seme's cousin??? That was random) and then they start getting closer and then the uke falls in love. Pretty standard stuff. Doesn't get into deep feelings or anything. 5/10

Araki-kun wa Kai narasenai

Ongoing | Kapparappara | 2019 released

Been a while since I read a pure shoujo. It's a bit rushed and messy and very very cliche, but it's cute. Yakko's younger sister and mother are both big actresses so shes left alone a lot. Then the popular actor Araki shows up at her house and confesses and Yakko falls in love and theres some very minor angst and drama. Yakko's family lowkey sucks, Araki is a very enthusiastic puppy bf, and Yakko herself is a pretty generic nice girl. 5/10

Naruse Akira to Ikkai Ya Retara Ore wa Mou Shinde mo Ii

Complete | Komo | 2018 released

Very tropey nervous awkward uke x popular hot guy seme. Theres like 10 missing chapters but the story is so cliche that they dont really matter. Very white bread energy. 4/10

Interi Yakuza wa Daite Aishite, Hanasanai!

Ongoing | Hitoe mabuta | 2022 released

Uh guy gets tired from worker cuz of a rude customer and gets hired by a cool definitely not yakuza man and then they have a misunderstanding about a girl who mr not yakuza is not actually dating, theres a minor stalker plot, and then they kiss kiss fall in love and we're done 5/10

Maji? Ore ga BL Eiga no Shuen? (Shika mo Uke)

Complete | Meo uroco | 2015 released

See, it's bad if someone ELSE assaults him but it's fine if it's the seme. That's how this works right? Yeah idk I didnt like this one. Very cliche plot and characters. Seme always forces sex on the uke especially at the start. For some reason no one tells the uke important work details? Idk man this just wasnt it for me 3/10

Saiteina otoko no ude no naka

Complete | Megumi Kitano, 北野仁 | 2000 released

Uke is shy and withdrawn bc people are homophobic assholes. Then he starts sleeping with his neighbor kinda by accident and gets attached and the neighbor is actually kinda really nice. Theres a bit of angst cuz, again, people are homophobic assholes. Then a happy ending. Tbh, I just finished this 5 min ago and cant remember all that much. Feels like nothing much happens. They fall in love in a month so their relationship is really underdeveloped. Art was clean tho ¯_(ツ)_/¯ 5 or 6/10
