Alien In My Closet

Complete | Bingo | 2000 released

7.5 out of 10 Glad this was not another abduction trope story, and for the most part there wasn't that much of a love triangle like I assumed. And that the seme stood up for the uke and kept him from just hiding his tastes just to satisfy sunbae, I think that's a really important lesson. Other than that, twas a simple story but enjoyable.

10 out of 10 These are one of the fun bickering couples, and I like that they still diss on each other lmao. And the author is so witty I near died at "30 minutes of ethics and morals later" XD. I love a good healthy rom-com.

Melt at Night

Complete | Taga | 2019 released

8.5 out of 10 I don't like the scene when he forces himself on the uke, but I'm glad he immediately realized his mistake and apologized. Other than that it was cute, it was nice to see the uke grow as a person and trust both his coworkers and himself. And I'm glad the seme quit his job for him, some sex worker characters in other mangas continue their jobs and it always felt off to me. Cuz you technically physically cheat on your partner everyday to make money, only to come back and do the same to them and claim that you can be trusted just because.

I don't even care about the age gap this time. This was beautiful ( ‘́⌣’̀)/(˘̩̩ε˘̩ƪ) 8 out of 10 Totally a great gem, 80s is always a good setting. (still hate the fact he was a light-haired seme lmao)

8.5 out of 10 Tanaka. That is the only thing that needs to be said. A wild crack-filled ride. And a slightly insufferable protag.

9 out of 10 This was so fun. I love the mangas that make fun of BL tropes and turn it into a comedy. It was so fun, wish we had more time to flesh out the mc (forgot his name) and Rika's relationship, but this was so hilarious. Plus it was fun to look into the mind of hormonal teenage boys who are complete dumbasses but at the same time openminded to trying new things and learning that love comes in different shapes and forms. These are definitely some iconic crackheads, and I'll probably reread it.

Mobyama Aji to Mobtani Crou no Kareinaru Nichijou e no Chousen

Complete | AZUMA Kaya | 2017 released

10 out of 10 MASTAPEECE talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it. This is some comedy that I never knew I needed in my life, and I had a blast.

The Good Teacher

Complete | Eeej | 2020 released

8 out of 10 Kinda wanted to know more about the uke's background in acting but other than that it was pretty fine. It was hilarious seeing him actually try to teach him even though he knew it was just a joke lmao. Also it's so refreshing to see a strangers to lovers couple actually get to know each other over a course of time rather than just falling love after 2 days or weeks. (honestly that's why I prefer strangers to best friends to lovers cuz strangers to lovers story will skip the "Get to know" step) only thing is Now that someone pointed it out I can't unsee it now and I gotta take a point off for a light haired seme TT TT I just hate seeing it so often LIKE WHY ARE THEY ALWAYS BLONDE OR SOMETHING.

Koi ga Michitara

Complete | Ueda aki | 2019 released

10 out of 10 Could've easily gone downhill with the cheating/jealousy misunderstanding plot but it easily subverted my expectations. Thank goodness. Again, very atmospheric and I love they showed how powerful communication is. :D

Koi ga Ochitara

Complete | Ueda Aki | 2000 released

9 out of 10 I really love this author and how atmospheric they make their mangas look. I really enjoyed Kitaru Harekake no Ashita yo. I don't like age gap that much, but this one didn't feel predatory or anything, except the beginning when he admitted to purposefully dropping his clothes which was borderline cute and creepy at the same time. (Please nobody else do this) But other than that thank goodness for no serious cheating, love triangle, or crazy misunderstandings, for the most part they were good at communication. Can't wait to read the sequel :3.
