lmao they're both in love with each other but they're so competitive neither will confess. cute and silly! 7/10

Really hoping there's a second volume of this one. this was surprisingly really good 9/10

Dropped at ch 14. The "my crush has a crush on me but I'm too dumb to notice" scenario was more interesting than the characters for me so once that was resolved I lost interest. 4/10

These two are so bad at saying things. Guy goes to a pink movie showing and gets picked up by his favorite magazine columnist. They staring fucking every other day after watching movies together. Feelings happen, things get complicated cuz their bad at communication, and then it all works out. Cute, grounded, kinda funny, and surprisingly sweet. 7/10

short and sweet story about two boys running restaurants down the street from each other. they're both in love and it's super fluffy and the food looks so frickin good 7/10

Anither dumb, horny plot serving some 10/10 smut. Guy matches with his boss (uke) on a hookup app. Uke says he cant cum unless hes creampied. Uke and seme fuck a lot. Turns out uke has been in love with the seme all along and was actually a virgin when this whole thing started. Kinda contrived drama happens including a rando newcomer who shows up, causes one misunderstanding that then gets ignored and is never relevant again. Overall like a 5/10. Dumb but smutty

This was cute. Kinda dumb but sweet. 6/10

I read this once a while ago. I remember very little. It was okay? 5/10

Aw darn that was so short. Woulda been a lot better if they'd fleshed it out more. Also would telling someone that you have to confess to them bc you like them... count as telling them that you like them??? That was a bit broken. Coulda had a lot more angst if he had to keep it to himself 5 or 6/10

Hmm. The story feels incomplete, like the only thing that's progressed is them confessing but otherwise they still have problems to work through. Exhibit A: seme doesnt like otaku stuff but the uke is very otaku. That didnt even get mentioned. Also the uke is a massive NEET, which is always a problem. And also it's kinda weird for someone to use their sibling as a reference for sex scenes ngl but it felt extra strange this time. Maybe cuz I'm just like that. Idk. Overall: 6/10. I liked the oneshot at the end way more
