takame's manga / #stoic seme(110)

A series of cute college romance set in one university who somehow knew one of the other CH. 1-3: a very cute college pair. Nice pacing despite only a three-chaptered story. Ikemen x nerd. It's also cute how the seme has different expressions bec of the uke. Uke is also adorable, like a cute porcupine lol. ch. 4: poker-faced seme is actually nice (the "it's not a girl tho" guy. yui's friend and classmate). bad first impression on this prickly librarian but seme discovered this guy's cute side. ch. 5: back in the literature department. girls went berserk upon the descent of a French foreign exchange student in their department. Been calling him prince but French guy actually thinks he's very much normal. ch. 6: uke is part of yui and nishino's circle of friends. is paired up with an OB. (an alumni) from another uni. #age gap of 5 years. jobhunting subplot. #salaryman x #college student.

ch. 1-3: #love triangle #unrequited love #band music. adorable, kind uke x delicate seme. I can't believe some readers still held sympathy for Arthur when he is irresponsible and the biggest coward of an asshole in this story. Not telling renji the truth is a big bullshit. He just really does not want to man up and take the responsibility of getting hurt by telling the truth. He's not "protecting renji". He's protecting himself. I remember that scene in the prequel where he said "I love you" with the image of his dead lover in his head. I'm offended with that. Well, He was waiting for his punishment for being a user-friendly asshole and NOW he got his punishment and people wanted him to get back with renji? Like WTF PEOPLE?? ALSO. If he really love renji sincerely, instead of flirting with renji in that half-assed manner, he should have done all he could to get inbetween the two. So would make him an asshole. And he'd rather protect his good guy image than be known as an asshole for retaking renji's heart. HUH. C'mon guys be better than be a person who fell for the good and kind-looking guy but is actually a hidden douche. --------------------------------------- ch. 4-end: #cloning. #sci-fi, cute couple. casual sex friends but fell inlove with each other. stone-faced, old model (seme) starts acting odd and even told uke to "shut him down" if he started to act up.

#age gap. bocchama x salaryman employed by the kid's father. kind of a puppy uke who follows his dad's secretary around and gets to be thrown in danger in the process.

#rape to love, basically. #kendo student suddenly got roped into this guy's big revolution idea for his assassin clan. sounds cheesy for the young boy but the man is actually serious.

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.

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.

page 1-50: state prosecutor x politician #reencounter #dark past. uke kept on running away from him. tbh I want it longer!!!!! something as complicated as this deserves to be at least one volume, ugh. #hate/love relationship between orphan childhood friends. one was reconciled with his family and the other got left behind. ch. 51-67 : prosecutor x politician's secretary. and the investigation continues as the imprisoned secretary is being questioned by uke's superior over and over. here, the secretary's depressing life comes to light, and about how todou got adopted. then #time jump to a happy ending. -------ɫ ⬧ ɫ-------- pg 68-end: two doctors. #hate each other eversince. it started when the sleazy one, mistaking the pretty doctor as a woman made a move on him. however, seen this weird attention turned into something weirder that he can't even get it up with women or anybody in that matter anymore. #cold uke x long-haired, cheerful/tennen genki seme

⟫Black Outsider > Dorobou to Hatsukoi. 〚 Main characters who worked in the café and the story of them with their lovers. Basically, a pair of mismatched couples. Ordinary men with ordinary looks and lifestyle that are matched up with accomplished, handsome and popular men. #insecure uke #giving up #misunderstandings. 〛 café manager x elite salaryman. ch. 0-1: he is ordinary and looked older than his age. #reencounter with his high school crush but ended up getting knocked out by his crush's former lover? however it gave him a chance to relieve a dream he wished to have. and it ended up sweet! fake oyaji-uke because of the #supernatural sub-plot. destiny itself brought them together! #short #ugly uke x #tall, handsome, hunky seme. waiter (kohai) x former sempai at art school. ch. 2-5: kohai has a big crush on sempai so he stole his painting. #reencounter 10 years later. bad news is, looks like sempai actually knows he's the culprit. a series of frustrating #misunderstandings where there seems to be no way out. thankfully, first couple acted as cupids for this two fools. #insecure uke x #awkward seme. art frame maker seme x childhood friend ch. 6: this time, the other sempai of the second couple is the main. here we get to know the mystery painter that he had a one-sided love with. #childhood friends #age gap of 10 years. hurrah for the #daring uke! (bec unless he is like that, I doubt they'd had progress, honestly, that #timid seme haha)

main couple: best friend, neighbors and childhood friend has been crushing on his straight bff for years now but his low confidence and general negative way of thinking kept him from it. nice words of the author about love and moving forward through this story. somewhat inspirational too bec of that. #straight seme x gay uke. warning: can trigger some. seme realized his feelings even when he's still going out with his gf. yone (the main couple's third wheel sempai) x heterochromiac roommate. @vol 3, chap 2-3, 5-6: their story. #japanese foreign exchange students in america #college pair, #art school. #age gap (27 x 23yo) #younger seme #stoic seme x #arrogant uke. Two guys who had bad luck with men became roommates. terrible first impressions but later on, yone sempai thought that it could be possible to fall inlove with this lonely person. also, it's about yone-sempail's #moving on. Vol 3 chapter 6: a crossover omake with the guys of "Yuuhi ni Fureru Sono Mae ni" somehow, our main pair stumbled on the same art college as them and crossed paths without knowing.

#introspective. the super long-ass #unrequited love titan of a manga. #age gap of 7 years. #pro writer x student, a BFF's younger brother. #seme who had a difficult love life: left him with trauma on loving and tried to escape his way out of the oasis that he found. #age gap. #drama. wowww, the feels are throwing me left and right. #sister complex, #family issues: i felt that there really something weird between the parents and youji in contrast to how he sticks like a glue to his sister. When I learned about it, it hurt my heart the same way seme shed tears from it. It started from mid-90s so the artwork slowly shifts towards the modern look. But best part of this manga is the story. A very good age gap manga that should be a standard in this genre. A certified classic. A teenaged boy who had a gf suddenly had to live with his sister's friend. From compassion it slowly started developing to love which gave him a lot of confusion. #amazing secondary characters: TBH the character I like the most is the ex-GF's best friend. She's great.
