Nice stories but... the censors. the good old shining dicks... *sighs. Story set in London and Europe. ch. 1-3: An intelligence agent from a group called SIS resigned and is ready to die from his incurable disease but met this boy that has restorative powers. Later, he can't keep his paws to himself and get carried away from all the touches. ch. 4-6: cold uke x silly, persistent seme. an IT engineer from SIS who had an unrequited love for seme 1 escapes to the virtual world to forget the pain. his friend and former classmate, now a yakuza asset openly expresses his affection through a bet. ch. 7-9: #mafia. a Mafioso picked up a sex slave he found in some cleaning operation. The guy is also a healer like the uke from first story and this #mute boy he picked up intrigued him. it's beautiful how they grew to be ready to sacrifice for one another ch. 10: extras.

age gap of 12 years, uke is 17 years old. guy has always been straight and but is now a bisexual for this normal-looking boy who is more than what he really is. and seems like this boy knows more about him more than himself. #secret identity #memory loss -- jin and mari continues their vague relationship as main characters at Jin to Neko wa Yobu to Konai

an old manga i've read. i don't mind rereading again since it's fun and rare (esp the cowboy concept). an entertaining light read, a fun adventure wild west-ish manga with nice twist. too bad it seems like the boy is not really sexually interested in either one of the handsome men around him. they were are nice eye candy tho.

A guilt-ridden priest who is also a vampire kept seeking this sexy, progeny who always tempts him for a bite. And the adventure started from there. Amazing story, amazing world. I like how through the long chapter, their feelings for each other appears to grow and progress. As for the smut scenes, it makes you anticipate and inspires imagination. There's some sexy vampire coupling that it's hot even if there is no actual sex shown.

AHAHAH, don't be discouraged by the cover, the story inside is cute and the art even if it's outdated is not bad! * set in ancient china. A young army commander who soughts promotion went into the quest of killing the "animal" that is killing a lot of humans lately in the nearby forest. #abduction *it's adorable. turns out he's a mountain spirit animal with human half-blood so he could transform into human. he may be able to communicate but he's still does not understand complicated human emotions. He's like a child in that aspect. this young noble taught him a lot of things like feelings and they started to mutually develop feelings. but human needed to return to village

If I let my emotion run I'd rate this 3 stars but the rest of the chaps are engaging & kept me up my toes. It could easily be a 5-star but the WTF CRAPPY ENDING. Made me dock one star. They DO feel love for each other but the problem is the boatload of issues that kept them from being honest. (hello daddy-complex, hello stupidity.) LIKE OMFG these two awkward fools. They're totally taking their relationship in the wrong process. They kept on missing the point. Sex before courtship in the middle of figuring out your sexuality is really, totally bad. I terribly wish someone would tell them to just "date each other" or something. The misunderstandings are making my heart ache much. #bi-racial romance. A japanese man encountered an american mafia crony whose boss tried to ask for ransom from his (corrupt) politician adoptive father. Dad refused. Hell ensued. But the kidnapped and the crony that is responsible for him had a spark. Both were able to escape back to japan to escape the escalating fiasco. Seme is fascinating. Everybody takes him for a fool including himself bec of lack of knowledge about his disability but uke thinks otherwise. It's a really developed story. I love it. MY ONLY, ONLY GRIPE is that the ending failed to give it justice. #straight uke x gay seme. #age gap - uke older by 10 years

⟫ I: Episode 0 > Itou-san This is some sort of prequel that features Itou-san's POV so we get a glimpse of life on his side of the world. I like the comparison of the cat drawn throughout the story. Here we see how he was raised as a mere machine for killing and how his owner gloats the perfection of his creation. However, karma would bit e him hard as he understand what "love" is the hard way. In the end, even someone as "perfect" as "I" is susceptible to love. And that made him learn how to be human. It's amazing. #foreigner "I" and his assassin group went to japan for business. #reencountered the boy he saved after 10 years. #sensitive topics like shota, child trafficking and violence. Read at your own risk.

⟫ Fake > Ra-I. #bi seme x straight uke: uke took his loook time to figure out his feelings. good pace. it took... what? 2-4 years for the charming and handsome dee to get the straight uke around? hehe. #classic: This manga is ahead of it's time. Or is it the other way around? they don't make mangas like this anymore. Now, it's all about the smut and the sexy police trope. For new readers, the art style will take getting used to but once you delve in the story, you will understand why this is a classic. #plot-heavy: Instead of a trope-y and/or kinky police plot or just dropping a gay+police together for some sexy time, we have a manga with a well-developed and properly researched (though not super accurate but the very japanese mangaka tried) story about two policemen who ended up together and just happened to be men. I like how the story is pieced like that. In every arc, we get to see their lives and how the kids grow and as case after case were properly closed, we get to see how their feelings grew. Dee, the guy who has chased his partner for years is as pitiful as he is amusing. I like how he's always creative in his rants. He kept the whole manga into a lighthearted note and I appreciate that despite the dangers and deaths surrounding them, Fake still maintained it's comedic note all throughout. That's the biggest difference it had to the heavy drama New York, New york. #adoption: Ryo took in 10-yo bikky at the start of the story. #great female character: Diana served as a cast for one of a few arcs too bad I wish she's a mainstay. but she's cool, pretty and strong. i like her. #multiple couples, het and gay. NOTE: These special chapters features the grown-up kids version. @vol 3, chap 10 and vol4, chap 12: bikky @14 and 15 yo. respectively. Appearance of rai/lai and lass/rathe. later had their own book. @chap 12: bikky x carol couple finally, at carol's 18th bday. #older girl #3 yrs age gap. @vol. 5, chap. 6: Al x rei couple cameo. #detective, #ESP.

It's sad, depressing and portrays race and sexual orientation discrimination in a damatic and gritty way. There are plenty of moments where I say "yes" especially when connor threw that coffee a stranger gave him. Unlike a lot of BL mangas, this does not encourage gay fetishism that made it likeable for me but also hard to read because I can't help but identify and that for me is bad bec. it triggers a lot in me since I'm both asian and not straight. double damn, haha. Unfortunately, it's still ongoing but I don't like rereading stories like these even if it's good. It's too painful and personal. #break-up, #re-encounter after 6 mos to one year. #inter-racial lovers. #drugs. Seme is famous yet on paths to self-destruction but now, at least they got back together and they should fight back against this shitty world just to survive and keep their relationship as a gay couple. #bullying issues: it made a deep impression/trauma for the uke, not to mention he's gay too and his religious mother, though well-meaning is just not helping. i love mona, their former bandmate. it's been years since they disbanded but is still friends with the two MCs. she's awesome.
