1001 Years I Love
AHAHAH, don't be discouraged by the cover, the story inside is cute and the art even if it's outdated is not bad!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
Porotto Koboreta
〚 Puchitto Series: A story of some friends (and the lovers they gain) whose common point is the gay bar Blue Organ 〛 ⟫ Puchitto Hajiketa > Porotto Koboreta > Korotto Ochita?. It's so cute! And I love seeing seme crying in their moment of weakness. Aw. This is Rui, Akkun's friend's own story. Friction at first meeting. They do not get along but one day, rui kind of pitied the man as he saw him drinking silly his broken heart away. So rui offered a comfort sex and eversince seeing the other guy's cute side that day it seems that he's slowly falling for him.
Jealousy (Scarlet Beriko)
⟫ Minori no Te > Yondaime Ooyamato Tatsuyuki > Jealousy 〚 A series of manga overlapping each other. Each were an indirect sequel of the other but can be read as a separate story. 〛 Scarlet beriko's newest manga. the infamous villain from yondaime ooyamoto got his own solo book. Delves what made him became what he is now. > Related: Joou to Shitateya @ch. 3: momoe-san cameo. Her past as the mama of a bar . Funny how the appearance of this occurring minor character has practically tied together all four books.
My Eternal Master
#sexual molestation. At gradeschool-age, he was given away like he's being sold as a sex slave. OFC parents don't have a solid proof that the man they owe money to is a pedophile plus the disgusting moustache man is powerful and rich they can't simply just disobey him. The thought is depressing. Japanese business politics that most readers won't be able to relate to. Nevertheless, the story is paper-thin. a poor attempt to make drama and smut. *shrugs. But at least the two had a happy ending.
Kimi to Kore kara
⟫ Konya mo Nemurenai > Kimi to Kore kara. 〚 Verde x Gorou 〛 A direct continuation of the last story about demons being summoned to the human world to make a wish. This time, the quartet had all became friends and now the two unassuming & ordinary-looking humans each had an exemplary lover of their own. Endou couple going strong while the verde couple need to consummate their relationship despite the cockblock happening all the time. TBH I like this more because it has a long fighting scene and it entertained me immensely. Now, the book feels more like an Cross-dimensional fantasy manga than a BL manga. I like!
Stranger
@2017: Finally. FINISHED! (`Д´)ノ Never thought i'd see the day! Unique cowboy x indian manga set in a desert. Beautiful, drool-worthy art + the translators did a very good job. A sheriff is about to die in the vast desert with his dead horse and no water but a native saved him. Sheriff slowly got attracted to the native and started to share how this little town is his salvation. However, his bad past came back to him at the arrival of a wanted man who called him "boss". I chuckled when fran's friend appeared. Suddenly, the wild, wild west theme song played in my mind AND I JUST CAN'T. ROFL. Kudos to mangaka for being able to achieve her wild west movie-like manga. This could easily be a masterpiece if we had another volume in order to dig deeper on the pair's past.
Backdoor Business
For some reason I can't get into it. A mysterious shop w/ unique services are a familiar concept in BL & there's a lot of great ones w/ similar format (sex therapist & minori no te among others) that I REALLY like but IDK? But don't get me wrong, IT'S NOT BAD. I read it till the end. Synopsis: An repatriate who came back to Japan for good ran an izakaya (traditional japanese restaurant) that is a little bit... unique. First, the owner is a quirky guy who acts and thinks like a weaboo despite being japanese & second, he is using it as a front to do some detective work with his mysterious, all-capable employees. And did I mention that he's gay? So yeah, in a nutshell this manga is about him helping those unfortunate gay men who stumble to his restaurant building. #reencounter romance started to develop around half of the story. Love interest is the okama that works on a gay bar that the group knew through their first job. Surprise, they actually knew each other since high school and the "amazing" owner cannot seem to recall that he actually confessed lol. Cute happy ending for the two!
Kashikomarimashita, Destiny
In this beautiful omegaverse manga we are presented of two different uptake of the mythical "soul bond". The two faces of destiny and how our two contrasting couples were able to be happy despite their circumstance. main couple: {ch. 1-4} The centerpiece is the soul bond between the two people who had an opposing view of the fate between them. Seme strongly denied it for years but it won't be long till the strong, animalistic attraction of the soul bond get to him. Both were heirs of their respective families but the uke is an omega so he's been kicked out by his stepmother even though he excels above other alphas. the seme is also an heir. couple 2: {ch. 5-end} the two butlers. alpha (saionji butler) x beta (uke's personal butler). Shows the contrasting concept from the first pair. This shows that not all destined pair could be blissfully serendipitous and even bring a lot of pain. As much as miyauchi (uke) refuse destiny and embrace his being a beta, he yearn for it the most in reality. So he tried hiding his feelings from the alpha whom he figured might find his destined mate someday. And it might have arrived the time he least expected?
Kimi no Oto ga Nari Yamanai
damn dunno when this will be finished but ill risk the subscription.MC is popular but he kind of wanted to be in company of someone who could relate to his taste of music. Unexpectedly discovered that plain, nondescript guy from his class is actually a budding DJ! Cute #from sex friends to lovers. #younger seme, 2 years older uke. #cute, blushy seme.
