sadslime's manga / #unrequited love(22)

Noah goes to Japan to find his perfect wife and immediately falls in love with an older man! A quick story about a foreigner and a Japanese man with Noah's boss acting as their cupid.

Chikage is the son of a yakuza boss who gets spoiled in everything, except the one thing he really wants—the second-in-command Aizawa's love! Since he assumes Aizawa is straight, he figures the only way for them to stay together is for him to take over the clan, but his father and Aizawa both are having none of it. So when Aizawa finally offers Chikage a bet that he has one month to seduce Aizawa and if he succeeds Aizawa will help him but if he fails, Chikage will give it up forever, Chikage jumps at the chance thinking it may be his only opportunity to touch the person he loves. But even though Aizawa seems to go along, he won't go all away due to reasons of his own that he absolutely doesn't want Chikage to know. Chikage is one of the prettiest ukes you'll see and he's also an innocent sweetheart, while Aizawa is pretty much your basic tough, handsome seme. So it's an okay story with some great eye candy. Trigger warning: attempted rape.

Maya is in love with Kengo, but Kengo is having none of it! The older cafe owner saved university student Maya from some shady dudes and it was love at first sight for Maya, but Kengo's not looking to settle down and Maya's love seems troublesome. But after they sleep together with a strict one night stand understanding, Kengo starts to wonder if he made the right choice. Some of the dialogue was just slightly off enough that I had no idea what they meant. Still, I liked the realistic seeming struggles they both went through, and it's fun to see a big, tough bottom. No trigger warnings.

Tsuho is a gay congressman pining after his childhood friend and secretary until one day he goes to an S&M club and meets Kyo, a paid Dom who loves dancing and they really hit it off. But just when they’re ready to take it to the next level, scandal rocks Tsuho’s life and their relationship. It’s a good story with some, though not a ton, of S&M, but I felt like the two unrequited loves they were getting over needed more time for the audience to care about them. Trigger warnings: S&M, forced outing.

Trigger warnings: discrimination, attempted rape. Ch.9-11 - Rune lives in a dystopian future where alphas and omegas are raised completely separately and partners and family size are decided by AI, but one day she wanders into the alpha side of the school on accident. She's saved by alpha Horo and falls in love at first sight, but there's almost no chance they'll ever meet again, until by chance they're paired together on the day of their graduation. Trigger warning: sexual harassment.

Natsuki has always beein in love with his former tutor, Ryogo, but he got married to Natsuki's older sister Yuhiko instead. Only after giving birth to twins, Yuhiko disappeared telling Ryogo to go to Natsuki if he needed any help. Now Natsuki has been pulled in and taken over the mom life, but it's hard when Ryogo not only doesn't help, but doesn't seem to care. Trigger warnings: noncon/attempted rape.

Takayuki isn't good at expressing his love. That's why he stole his former classmate Kiyotake's girlfriend in high school and told him he didn't even want her, then went to a different university hoping to cut ties. But when they run into each other again by chance, Kiyotake starts to get closer, causing Takayuki to make terrible decisions to run from him. Trigger warning: violence.

Yukito has always loved his childhood friend, Keiichi, but after Keiichi got his first girlfriend, Yukito distanced himself, moved away, and started having lots of casual relationships. Now Keiichi wants to get back into Yukito's life, and he also wants Yukito to cut things off with his sex friends. But if Yukito is no longer capable of thinking of Keiichi as just a friend, can they really go back to normal? I didn't think the leads had a lot of chemistry, so this one didn't engage me as much. No trigger warnings.

Akira is a high school student who realized he was in love with his tutor Koki when Koki and his mom announced they were getting married. Akira wants to be happy for them, but he can barely keep himself from jerking off to Koki's insane levels of skinship. He ends up going to stay at his teacher Tojima's house where he has Tojima jerk him off since he can no longer finish by himself. Over the course of their happy life together Akira can't help but fall for Tojima, but Tojima has had issues with relationships with students before and he doesn't want to get burned again. A bit cliche and obviously a problematic relationship, but it's not the worst. Trigger warnings: noncon, statutory rape(?)
