Umi de Hirotta Kimi ni Sasagu
Yknow. I'll never understand these "I love you, goodbye" ghosting plots... Writer picks up a naked guy of the beach who claims to have amnesia. But does he really? And who is this mysterious kid? *Dun dun dun* 5/10 i guess
A Midnight Bellboy
Ch 1: A aspiring writer working as a bell hoy has a one night stand with a visiting model and falls in love despite himself. Ch 2: The son of some important person has been kidnapped by a group of terrorists. He's attracted to the gruff guy lowkey in charge of him but it's just not meant to be. 8/10
Dragon Ni Koi
Kouryaku Syndrome
Ch 1-4. A lil weird for me that they spoke like everything was a video game. That's some immersion. I see how it can be fun and cute tho, just not for me. The plot is basically gamer guy has crush on girl. Girls brother is guy gamer guy doesnt like. They fall in love after barely any interaction. The end. Ch 6: two writers living together, polar opposites. The seme assaults the uke but we pretend it's to develop his writing through experience and not rape or anything and then for some reason that works and its happily ever after Ch 7: a cute oneshot about the side characters from the first story Over all 3/10 for me chief
Do Shenshwcho wo ikenai goshido
Writer gets a new editor who's pushing him to write more sensual stuff and then molest him to give him "experience". Yeah its another one of these I don't have it in me. Edit: wound up half skimming it. They really had to arm wrestle that misunderstanding so it could be easily resolved. No way do you answer "well obviously the best part is his looks" and turn that into "haha I mean his expressions." Idk. Also: "when you say no you actually mean yes". In context, not horrible. Still never a fan. Idk. I have no patience anymore. 3/10 Name on MAL is Do S Henshuuchou no Ikenai Goshidou
Page o Mekuru Sono Mae ni
Dang. Yknow, they coulda just... not used the cheapest trick in the book to try and make the abusive ex sympathetic... he shoulda just dropped outta the story and we call it a day. Anyway, scruffy writer guy and our cute college kid were cute and fluffy. The hidden identity plot was silly but I enjoyed it 6/10
In Too Deep: Our Hallowed Diner
A oneshot but I liked the vibes 7/10
Seinen Hakkaten
Uke writes erotic fiction for his uncles magazine (which is weird... it's weird to have your nephew who is a minor write erotica for your magazine right??) And then he somehow gets involved with the cool seme and they start jacking off together It was a bit of a mess at the end bc the story decided to jump like half a year to a year ahead when drama had happened and then had to go back and explain why. Like just... play all that out chronologically? It was pretty good? Anyway 5/10
It's Not Like That (Gangto)
