Cucumber Sandwich

Complete | akai higasa | 2000 released

Despite it being open-ended and more slice-of-life than anything, it's a wacky story of a poor, struggling guy who ventured into making a cafe. I like how he does his best with his dreams despite being poor, baby-faced and quite underwhelming all in all. Also, the people that he manages to draw in are amazing in their own way I see this shop becoming a good one. Open-ended but I would have loved to read more of their everyday lives in the cafe. Oh well, there's always rereading.

Ai To Yokubou Wa Gakuen De

Ongoing | umezawa hana | 2004 released

school for professional sex industry workers. the concept itself is hot already. cute art, bishounen semes. I was young when I started this manga but unfortunately, I might turn into a full-pledged obasan or a senior citizen even before I witness this manga be finished scanlating. I love to see how it ends, it's a pretty cute smutty story with kinks all over but done in a lighthearted note w/c i appreciate.

Gokudou Darling

Complete | fujikawa ruri | 2012 released

OMG finally scanlations finished after THREE YEARS LIKE I CAN'T BELIEVE!. ヽ(°Д°)ノ!! Well, the plot isn't much still interesting nonetheless. It's fun. Ended up cute and nice for the yakuza step-brother side. But i guess the mangaka wanted to focus on the yakuza side instead of host life. #poor guy suddenly got money because of mom's remarriage. and got one hunky guy pursuing him too. the guy's a yakuza tho.

a oneshot about a former host that had gone back to the store out of favor and met this guy (whom he had most likely a love at first sight with). oh man it's cute. it deserved a longer story. #one night stand
