Yane's manga / #Shoujo(97)

Cute but too short, they don't get together

My rating: 6/10 Sadly it's only a oneshot, I want more. I like the FL, she isn't some childlike weak girl but actually strong and she has a temper. But the teacher abuses his position and popularity to get close to her, his student!!! That's pretty creepy actually, even if he's good looking. SCHOOL LIFE, TEACHER, MODEL A high school student (FL) is an ex model who tries to stay unnoticed bc she was bullied in the past. But her teacher (ML) catches a glimpse of her charm and gets interested in her.

My rating: 9/10 It's quite enjoyable, really funny too. It's written from the ML's pov. He's highly intelligent and devoid of emotions at first. The FL with her pure and energetic nature changes him, it's quite adorable n develops into an (harmless) obsession on his part. What makes this so wholesome is also the "found family" concept. They gradually gather friends around them who support each other. And I really like that here the seemingly senseless obsession of the men with og heroine in the og story is actually explained (and it's a rather unique reason). REINCARNATION, COMEDY Crown prince Cecil (ML) is so brilliant that everything in life is easy to the point of boring him. But during their first meeting, his fiancée Bertia (FL) suddenly proclaims that she's the villainess of an otome game and that she will do everything to fulfill her role and help him find happiness with the og heroine. Quite interesting ...

My rating: 7/10 It's interesting, a magical detective story with all the investigations. U slowly realise the connections, it's a good build-up. The characters are likeable too, the FL's courageous. But there's only a hint of romance and the ending's rushed. CROSSDRESSING, MAGICIAN Eco (FL) can use magic even though only men are supposed to have that ability. After her powers are exposed by accident, she's scorned. Then, her cousin suggests for her to work at the Magic Bureau in his stead. Eco decides to dress as a man and work as a mage. However she unexpectedly becomes "buddies" with another magician (ML) bc they enhance each other's magic powers

My rating: 3/10 It's entertaining but not my cup of tea. Although these 3 short stories address some serious topics, they're rather light-hearted bc the FL's are always pretty immature yet determined. REINCARNATION, MODERN DAY 1) A high school girl gets transported into the past and gets told that she's the reincarnation of a warrior. Now she has to help a young man defeat the enemy 2) 2 high school students are in love in spite of their parents's disapproval 3) A high school girl meets a Chinese police officer and helps him during an investigation

My rating: 7/10 I don't like that he SAs her at the beginning. But after that the story actually becomes really cute. His desire to be loved, his hidden scars make this more serious and interesting until the end. The FL's kind and perceptive, I really like her. ACTOR, REUNION One day, a comic artist reunites with her friend from high school who became a heartthrob actor. They decide to go drinking, but when he takes care of her after and sees her sleeping beside him, his feelings overflow. What didn't he tell her back then?

My rating: 8,5/10 I absolutely adore the FL with her positive attitude. She really never gives up, is naturally friendly and confident. The way she tries to charm the tsundere ML really got me invested, this never gets boring. But it doesn't feel complete, more like the end of a season. OFFICE ROMANCE, PLANTS Everything has been going downhill for Hana lately: her fiancee cheats on her, her plants die and then she gets molested on the train. Unexpectedly, a handsome man stands up for her. When they meet again during a marriage meeting, she starts to really want to date him. But although he helped her that time, he turns out to be rather cold and rejects her in a rude way?! She's gonna give up like that!

My rating: 7,5/10 It's cute. I really like the FL, she's intelligent, has a great pokerface and still crushes on him hard. They complement each other with him being such a nice guy and a pushover. The ending's a bit rushed, there could've been be more drama, but it's alright. OFFICE ROMANCE, BET An office lady is known as the "Ice Iron Lady" in her company because of her cool and practical way of doing her job. One day, she overhears the seniors pressuring the guy she has a crush on to bet on whether he can get with her. So, she decides to use this to make some good memories with him until she resigns in 2 months.

My rating: 2/10 Reading this felt like watching a bad low-budget film. It's just so cliché and predictable with one-dimensional characters and absolutely no suspense. The smut isn't good either. It's a bit cute but that's it. CAFE, INFLUENCER One day, the owner of a café (FL) spots an handsome man in her shop. Later, she finds out that this man is a famous influencer who posted about her café. When she meets him again and tells him about her fear of men he promises to help her overcome it.

My rating: 7/10 It's a cute collection of oneshots. I really enjoyed reading it, it's not too deep, more like ordinary little loves stories, but it's adorable and the art is pretty. There's a bit of smut. ONESHOTS, CUTE 1) hostess who wants to open her nail salon x rich young man 2) supermarket employee x new determined employee 3) Female president of a start up x older subordinate 4) Medical clerk x potter (reunion)
