Shoujo Protagonist x Rival-san
Popular girl likes quiet girl (mc) but mc likes the popular dude. pop girl and dude are childhood besties and pop girl doesn't want mc to get close to pop dude. Cute short chapters, but they feel out of order, and like it's cut short. Could def go on longer.
Protagonist x Rival
more chapters than the completed version, still feels out of order, and the translations are worse.
Tell Me You Can Hear It
MC likes pretty things and goes to give a senior something, just to see this dude have a hot face. He calls him hot in his mind, but is frowning at him while talking to him. What he doesn't realize, is that this senior can actually hear people's thoughts. This dude thinks MC is cute, and wants to know more about him. Towards the end, when MC finds out he can read minds, he gets mad, but it's resolved within a few chaps, and the dude promises to not read MC's mind anymore. Smexy content in the extras.
Ore no Aoharu wa Watasanai
MC really likes manga, and after being bullied in middle school for it, he wanted to adopt the persona of a popular person when he entered high school. However, the new transfer student is someone he was close to in middle school and knows MC's real personality. After the two get closer, one of MC's high school friends gets a bit jealous of MC and childhood bsf getting close, and after seeing the two kiss, realizes he likes MC. but ofc, mc and childhood bsf like each other so dude's out of luck. The friend group is top tier, they're all super cute. This is the first volume, and there's a second one currently being updated.
Koi De Wa Nai to Omoitai
MC likes childhood friend, Souta. MC always has to find Souta for other people, and one day finds him talking to a girl in the nurses office. After Souta leaves, MC and this girl get a bit closer, and this girl is like just confess to Souta, and he's like wym I dont like him blah blah blah. Turns out a different girl was asking Souta for advice to confess to MC, and both friends were jealous of these other girls because both MC and Souta are in loveeeee. Kinda boring considering they dont even kiss, and Souta shows like no emotions.
Ore no Oniku-chan
MC used to be fat, and he met a person in high school who he thought liked him so he developed a crush on too. However, come graduation, the dude didnt want to keep in contact, so MC lost all hiss weight so he could one day get revenge. He ends up meeting the dude again, but the dude recognizes him immediately. The two get together ig. Kinda anticlimactic.
The Best Smell
MC has an intense sense of smell, and can smell the emotions of people around him. One day, he gets kissed while sleeping and can only remember the smell. He finally finds the person and it turns out to be a random dude. This dude gives out the sweet smell of affection, and even tho MC doesn't really know him, he wants to smell more. Turns out this dude saw MC's performance last year and has liked him ever since. Turns out the tv show the dude likes, has a character that is voiced by MC's mom. Super cute story, dude fell first, but MC clearly falls harder. It's a bit slow as they dont officially start dating until like chapter 70, but they confess their feelings like in the 20's, they just want to take it slow. Plus MC wasn't sure if he had frfr feelings or just liked his smell. Additionally, I can really relate to the love interest's personal life. poor dude's dad died (mine left me) and has an absent mother, so he's forced to live with his grandma who openly hates him and wishes he was never born (very relatable, yet so sad for the dude). bookmarks: ch 9 ch 12-13 ch 19-22 ch 24-28 ch 31 ch 34 ch 36-37 ch 41-53 ch 60-68 ch 70-72 ch 74-75 ch 77 ch 81-82 ch 84-86 ch 88-91 ch 93-95
