Kiss Mo Dekinakatta
The angst is really good in this one too. This is the sequel to Tsuzuki wa Asa Made. And the rival in that manga becomes the mc here. When Sagara got dumbed, he went to his friend's dorm for comfort. But, the comfort soon turned into THAT kind of comfort. In the end, his friend unexpectedly confessed his unrequited love for the seme. The pacing for Sagara's feeling development wasn't clear at all. But, I like that. It felt a bit like those unexpected sudden development that leaves you confused and high. And the character design was dope than the other one.

I have mixed feelings about this. Firstly, That damn unexpected twist made me see my life is 9D. I loved that, actually. Unexpected chara switching is really dope. The uke(who I thought would be the seme) was manipulative, possessive, selfish and a bit too toxic. But, I guess the seme don't care so oh well. AND I like the realistic feel of it tbh. There's no miscommunication but that deep ignorance and stubbornness is there. Also, are they really gay??? I- I don't know but the bond is certainly strong. So, maybe they'll pull it off until the end? Oh well, all's good if it ends good
Goodbye Harlequin
Two broken people. Yeah, their background is bit messed up. Especially the uke's. Poor thing. Both numb to the world until they crossed paths with each other. A model and a designer.
Shishi Mo Kobamazu
This was so adorable! A uke who can fight and isn't all fragile but still cute. LOVED IT!
Rix Vanus
Rape, "sexual thingy" with random people & religion is something that's spread throughout the story. So, yeah, not everyone's cup of tea. But, apart from that, everything else is wholesome. Every character is carved out very well and non-cliched. Even villains are realistic and isn't the typical cliche type. Bulky uke who can take the lead is something we stan in this house. A story about a horrendously sexual curse(ngl, I definitely HATE the curse. I mean, usually, it's tolerable but damn, this is different) and a divine beast helping the fierce prince to undo the curse. The whole thing is quite adventurous. So, yeah, a good way to slowly slip out of the usual yaoi patterns.
Strawberry Combat
Reincarnated everyone. Past lovers reincarnated into a retired mercenary and Ceo. I really liked the fact that the roles were reversed, as expected of the author. And the storyline isn't too vague or linear, it had different dimensions and I loved it
Akuma To Issho
The first story is about a martial art teacher and student. The second story is about two students. The third one the thang! It was hilarious and really noice. It's about a demon who got accidentally summoned by a human with a cursed bloodline. I really like the author. Amazing, as usual
Three Wolves Mountain
I absolutely loved this one. The story was really hilarious and dynamic to me. And the switch was . Also, Aki's twist was next level. A story of werewolves and a graveyard keeper.
