Asterisk (torino Shino)
This is underrated bec of the "cheating" seme. If you concentrate on that, you'll miss the top-notch quality storytelling this manga had. Give it a chance. It has a certain realism to it, not the idealized, magnified KYA-KYA STEREOTYPICAL BL w/ tons of reviews. No, this manga gave life and breathed out two men's life story and their imperfections. I cannot describe it enough. #sex friends to love ~ reencounter. #sex friends #tutor x student #older seme #3 yrs age gap #young, unrequited love that mc (uke) let go only to #reencounter 12 yrs after. #art - At first glance, the art looked like the mature josei style and I appreciate this mangaka's foray to BL. Sawa is a private tutor of Nanao, a highschooler who does ballet. Popular & a player, Nanao never lacks girls. But one day, he got a taste of sensei & he just can't stop. It turned into more than that but it took them forever to realize the feelings of the other.
Samurai Ice Cream
[[EDIT: FINISHED APR 2018 ]] Kendo ace being bullied by jealous senpai,. #rencounter childhood friend who came back home after 10 years. (They're such adorable Chibis at the time daww). Kendo boy tries to deal with this childhood friend whom had changed a lot, especially his height. Meanwhile kendo boy is still the same stiff-faced guy dubbed as "samurai" by everyone.
Gift (ICHINOSE Yuma)
Woah... This is amazing. What started as an accidental meeting by a foreign-looking delinquent & a son of a boxer became an awesome story of a heavily closeted gay man bogged down by expectations snd this scarred young man that had a gift for boxing. That blond boy is scary but at the same time pitiful. He.might look like some robot onnthe outside but inside he's such a mess.
Omae no Koi wa Ore no Mono
Muscled couple? SIGN ME THE FUCK UP. (gorilla boss. haha) I like how this omegaverse story only focuses on the two and it's a romantic comedy for a change. #rivals and bickering frenemies. Like figuring out which martial art is stronger but the truth, that extra tension rooted out from them being attracted to each other. Looking forward to this & I would love it more if this is one of the rare rape-free omegaverse. #sports #romcom, #tension. Edit: 2018-06-02 21:36 marked, Fin Jul 2018
Hatsukoi Wa Gunjou Ni Tokeru
It's sooo soo pretty like omg. So sparkly and romantic I just can't one pure high school romance here guys, if you're in the mood for it this is a good read. Seme, the down to earth and oh so kind nephew of the music teacher took it to himself to be friends with this lonely guy who is surrounded with rumors. #Older uke got held back a year due to some (bullying/molestation) issues
Shinyuu tte Soko Made Shinakucha Ikenai No?
I am so amused with how the mangaka took the time to properly explain the "disease" and here I am being impatient with the anal massage. Sorry mangaka! I initially thought it's going to be smutty so I expected sex at first or second chap. TBH I was getting on the seriousness of the "disease" and suddenly we've gone back to the hilarious unwilling anal probe by the straight guy part. Issei is a track runner w/ all his heart and soul. Out of desperation, he asked his best friend to do prostate massage so his disease would not get worse. Straight best friend braced himself to do things on a guy's hole so his friend would not give up his dreams of being an athlete. Unexpected feeling developed despite them both being initially straight. Would it break or make their friendship?
Kuzu Seito to Stalker-sensei
Edit: 2018 FIN. Ch. 1-7:SCUM VERSUS SCUM! A working adult (29 yo) debuts as a highschooler. Mc (uke) is a scammer & manipulative type of guy all his life wanted a change of atmosphere/image thus the reason for pretending to be high schooler. Unfortunately there's a stalker teacher... dubcon #blackmail. #younger seme, 3 years younger. #baby-faced uke. .//. Ch 8: [Unrelated oneshot.] I loled bec it's cute. Sempai told his junior that he needed kiss every other time interval or he would feel sick. Our cute uke totally believed it and soon, he started liking their makeout sessions that became heavier as times go by. One day sempai suddenly stopped their kissing agreement and he realized that more than helping, he's fallen for sempai too. ------ Yoshihara, even when he is always at the background is such an amazing friend if you think about it. He just genuinely cared for the uke in a pure friendship way, always looking out for the friend who always attracts trouble. And most of all, no stupid thing such as "friend getting jealous when MC got a bf". I commend the author for that.
Sukidesu, Sensei
School life multiple oneshots with pairings that had large height gap./ Ch.1&5: Asst. Teacher x HS varsity player. #older uke #reencounter. Tall student suddenly confessed to sensei. They were actually basketball sempai-kouhai once.//. Ch.2-3: #countryside #stargazing #17yrs age gap. Highschool kid avidly pursues a guy way older than him. Older guy kept rebuffing him off. Older guy stay away bec of MCs age and it almost cost them a broken friendship. Good thing they were able to talk. .//. Ch.4: The bittersweet friendship to romance story of former classmates.
Ashitagari Mono Mania
Ch. 1-3, [email protected]: Aww, how touching. They were strangers. At first, Tooru took in the child bec of pity. They both lost their parents on that car collision. However, he started to have feelings for the (unrelated) boy who is 10 yrs younger but despite everyone telling him to, he is not willing to let go. .//. Ch. 4-5: It's pretty cute. Sempai had a long-standing crush on their former basketball manager while the younger bro who is also a bball player had a crush on sempai. It took sempai years before realizing that the person who cherishes him for years had been the (guy) kohai all along. .//. Ch. 6: short oneshot with two young men and their little misunderstanding due to their love for each other. @p. 26: bonus shorties for main couple.
