High-schooler Nanao has been raised all his life to be a sacrifice to the local god, Daja, as per his family's agreement. But when the time comes, Daja is not interested, despite Nanao's every effort, claiming that, among other things, Nanao won't taste good since his soul has no greed/desires. Nanao won't leave though, so they end up living together while Nanao tries to convince Daja to eat him, and Daja tries to get Nanao to leave him alone. I like Daja a lot as he's visually quite different from most semes, and Nanao is very funny. Trigger warning: spiked drink (aphrodisiac).

Chiharu is a writer who recently returned to his childhood home in the countryside to take a break. When he gets there, he runs into a strange, white-haired young man at the bus stop who seems ignorant of daily life and says he's waiting for his wife, who he hasn't met. Though Chiharu leaves that guy there, later when he's about to get attacked by a wild boar the white-haired stranger appears again and reveals he's the dragon god from hte local legend and Chiharu's grandma agreed to make Chiharu his bride! No trigger warnings.

Hinata is a university student who has lived with his guardian, Midori, ever since his parents passed, and although Midori is a little overprotective, Hinata loves him. That's why, when he sees Midori without a shadow, he starts to worry that Midori is a ghost and Hinata has kept him bound here. Hinata becomes determined to help Midori move on, but it turns out, Midori is something else entirely. I find Midori an interesting character both visually and in terms of his background, even if the setup between the two feels a little weird. Trigger warnings: incest themes (guardian), dubcon.

Ch.1-3 - Haruma is a college student who recently moved back into his grandma's house and cleaned up an old shrine on the side of the road due to the values his grandma instilled in him, only to have that god, Aoba, follow him home and declare he'd fulfill Haruma's wish for love himself, by becoming Haruma's life! Haruma is unsure at first, but he quickly becomes used to life with Aoba, and when Aoba's brother tries to pull them apart, Haruma is unwilling to let go. Cute, and I love Aoba's constant optimism. No trigger warnings. Ch.4-5 - Aoba's brother Kuro hates humans, but after getting some help from a high schooler named Hikaru, when Hikaru asks for a family, Kuro finds himself fulfilling that wish whether he wants to or not. But even though Kuro doesn't like humans, he finds his feelings for Hikaru changing. This one is also cute, but I personally prefer the first couple. No trigger warnings.

This land is protected by the batsu, gods who radiate heat and live short lives with a single human family acting as their caretakers. Theo is next in line to act as caretaker to the batsu Rei, the first to be born from a human and a batsu. Rei seems indifferent to Theo at first, but the two grow closer and even end up sleeping together. But as Rei's health begins to decline, Theo becomes desperate to help him feel better before realizing that their relationship might be hurting Rei. Not the best conclusion, but an interesting world and cute characters. Trigger warning: child abuse.

Mayuki is a university student who recently moved into his deceased grandma's house and immediately ran into Kotofuki, his first love who comforted him after the death of his grandma. But Kotofuki hasn't aged at all, and he reveals it's because he's a god who Mayuki willed to come out with his loneliness. The two begin living together and it's going well, but Mayuki is having dreams about Kotofuki with his ancestor that make him worry he's just a replacement. Meanwhile, Kotofuki has a secret he's keeping from Mayuki that, when it comes out, makes him believe they can't stay together. Really cute and sweet couple. No trigger warnings.

The story of the beloved pet human of the god Uranus when Uranus has to leave to visit Gaia for a few days, so he leaves his human with Erebus. Erebus gets sick of the human "misbehaving" and decides to train him through sexual acts. I really wish it had just been a sweet story about how much Uranus loved his pet human, but instead I got sexual torture. Not for me. Trigger warnings: noncon, BDSM.
