In an omegaverse/beastman world, Sachio Kurumizawa is an omega mouse, possibly the worst combination as he's prey to pretty much anyone. He works as a manga author to support himself while leaving the house as little as possible, but to make matters worse, his editor Ukano Shinobu is an alpha fox, the natural enemy of a mouse like him! When Sachio goes into heat due to a drug, Ukano offers to help him get over it faster by having sex, so the two begin a physical relationship, but Sachio finds it hard to trust anything the seemingly carefree fox says, especially when Ukano might just be trying to eat him, after all. Second volume follows their relationship after they start dating. Trigger warnings: drug(heat inducer), attempted rape, cannibalistic themes.

Genji, a former criminal, picked up an injured leopard cub on a rainy day, only for the cub to turn into a human boy who he called Koushirou. Five years later, Koushirou has grown into an adult man, and now he wants to pursue a relationship with Genji, who worries about being together with a child he raised, even if he's grown now. But before Genji can fully work out his feelings, a being who calls himself Koushiro's "brother" appears and tells Koushiro it's time to go home. Very intense and emotional. A good read if you don't mind the parent/child aspect of it. Trigger warning: incest themes (guardian)

Yagi is just a goatman who has always dreamed of working in a bookshop in a world where goats are known for eating books. He finally managed to get a job in a bookshop in the carnivore zone, but his boss, Ookami, is always yelling at him for eating the books! But really, Ookami has been looking out for Yagi all along. So when an unfortunate incident ends with Yagi getting accidentally injured by a patron, Ookami immediately fires him, and Yagi finally realizes he doesn't just want to work at any bookstore, he wants to work with Ookami. One of my favorite stories with really adorable characters who are fun to see. I don't mind explicit stuff, but I do think this story might have actually worked better as a shounen ai, but that's just me. Still, really cute and worth a read. No trigger warnings.

Nishina Zen is an ordinary man who wandered into another world one day where everyone has animal ears. He got into an altercation and was saved by Alivian, a member of a government bureau who takes him in and explains this world. But while they're talking, Zen reacts to one of Al's words as if it were a "command," leading to the realization that Zen is a sub. He demands that Al (dom) take care of him, and they end up living together, much to Al's surprise, as his glare is usually too much for even neutrals, but Zen doesn't seem to mind at all. In fact, "playing" with Zen seems to help manage his glare so others are effected less as well. It all seems too good to be true, and Al feels guilty for using Zen, while Zen is starting to feel romantic feelings for Al that Al seems unprepared to accept. No trigger warnings.

Ch.1-3.5 - In his former life, Ryuuzaki was the famous black dragon who fell in love with the flute player Chinagi and they birthed an island. Now reborn on that same island, Ryuuzaki is desperate to find Chinagi, demanding every woman he sees strip in front of him so he can check for the scale pattern that marked Chinagi as his lover. Meanwhile, he's accompanied everywhere by his loyal follower Yasu who does everything from bringing him food to sucking him off. But when Yasu asks Ryuuzaki to look at him instead of Chinagi, Ryuuzaki becomes confused and frustrated that his love for Chinagi could waver. A heartfelt comedy that I enjoyed. Trigger warnings: death/violence, noncon(comedically stripping women's clothes). Ch.4-7.6 - When Nijino first met the white dragon Byakuya, the very first words out of his mouth were a demand to sleep together, followed by Byakuya forcibly taking him. After that, Byakuya offered to pay for Nijino's sister's treatments if Nijino would continue sleeping with him, and Nijino learned he was supposedly a fugeki who could increase the dragon's power. Nijino has been with Byakuya ever since, but he somewhat despises this relationship in which they both use each other. However, Nijino has yet to fully remember his past lives with Byakuya, and their connection runs deeper than he thinks. Trigger warnings: rape, coercion, sex work, death/violence.

In a world where basilisks and cockatrices secretly live among humans, an innocent cockatrice named Sora is sent to a school full of basilisks on a secret mission to get close to the student council president, Rin, but he immediately forgets his mission and falls in love with Rin's delinquent brother, Kai, instead. It was a bit chaotic and wacky, but I liked what I read of it. Still, I only read through chapter 5 because it felt like a good stopping point. Trigger warnings: violence, abduction.
