"Ichinose, a socially awkward man, befriends his neighbor Tsuchiya and his cat, unaware of Tsuchiya's hidden feelings in this heartfelt collection of oneshots." Cuuuties.

"After getting his sister devoured by a dragon and losing all their supplies in a failed dungeon raid, Laios and his party is determined to save his sister before she get digested. Completely broke and having to resort to eating monsters as food, they meet a dwarf who will introduce them to the world of dungeon meshi..." PHENOMENAL.

"Takumi, who is inexperienced in love, talks to a girl as usual and listens to his childhood friend Ren, who he lives with. Ren proposes to Takumi, "Do you want to try going out with me?" and, under the influence of alcohol, Takumi agrees. They begin their lives as "trial lovers," going on dates, hugging, and kissing. At first, Takumi feels awkward with the unfamiliar closeness, but gradually begins to develop feelings for Ren's sweet attitude towards him." A very good, classic friends-to-lovers but it takes place in adulthood + they have a pet ferret. Very refreshing read.

"High school student Saika has psychic abilities, and is constantly tormented by people?s thoughts. However, after he makes a friend, who happens to be in love with him, he finds it's not all that bad." Very sweet. Bonus points for the realistic first time scene.

"Sano dreams of being the most popular guy in school, but Kiyoharu Azuma, a natural bad boy, steals all the attention. When Sano's crush falls for Kiyoharu, his jealousy intensifies. A failed attempt to embarrass Kiyoharu leads to an unexpected, steamy encounter, turning their rivalry into something more complicated." Classic rivals/enemies to lovers. It's sweet how infatuated they are with each other, and just how much Sano (seme) likes his partner, Azuma. CUTE!

IT UPDATED!!! (A cheery guy sees a ghost floating around his desk mate and is now puzzled when he learns that his desk mate likes him). Unique concept and development.

"Kon teases Iida, the school's most proper and popular guy, who seems indifferent to girls’ advances. To test a hunch, Kon pretends to confess his love as part of a bet. Iida, caught off guard, starts questioning himself. When Kon invites him home to clear the air, Iida unexpectedly grabs his shoulder, and everything takes an unforeseen turn..." Silly NSFW 'plot' but really nice art and the uke is cute. The relationship felt kind of rushed but I can't complain too much.

"University student Isumi Sakuraba, self-conscious about his short stature and baby face, is mistaken for a minor by police officer Amasawa. After clearing the misunderstanding, they meet again at Isumi's part-time job. Amasawa becomes a regular, often asking for meal recommendations. Concerned about Amasawa's eating habits, Isumi impulsively offers, "Why don't I make food for you?" Super cute! I love the height difference and their dynamic. I do appreciate how their age gap isn't dismissed in the getting-together. Short but satisfying and wholesome.

"Somei Sakura, admired for his cuteness, falls for the "cooler" Yukihira Tsubasa in high school and follows him to university. Struggling to confess his feelings, he impulsively kisses Yukihira, setting their relationship on an unexpected path." Kind of a fun read, they're both dorks in (un)requited love.

"Hiroto, struggling to hide his sexuality, develops feelings for Ogasawara, a marine biology enthusiast unafraid to be himself. As his emotions deepen, Hiroto is plagued by bizarre, erotic dreams involving sea creatures, leaving him confused and increasingly drawn to Ogasawara." (4.5/5) Goofy and *freaky* cover but genuinely a cute, heartwarming read. "Autistic Rizz, the manga."
