Kimi To Parade
it was mellow, gentle, fluffy and cute. however, it pales in comparison to it's sequel ("Paradise View", which I accidentally read first). it seemed to lack that raw depth of emotion that was provided in it's sequel, but this is still a recommended read for sure, especially if u wana read the sequel. I love the soft development of their relationship, and adore both characters.
Hana No Miyako De
beautiful, pure, and heartbreaking. in just 3 chapters (and 1 extra), I managed to feel an astounding range of emotions. It was adorable, and had depth, and made me cry. the emotions that the characters and the story itself conveyed was truly amazing. I felt their regret, sadness, longing, their love that couldn't be. it hurt and yet I reread it 3 times so far. plus, the art is absolutely gorgeous
Oku made Furetemo Ii desu ka
uh wtf WHY ARE THEY SO CUTE. they're literally so cute it should be illegal. oh my looord Natsume is so innocent and such an adorable floof I can't... this was way too short!!! honestly there wasn't much plot but their relationship is so cute it's not even noticeable. I would literally reread just for the overwhelming cute feels.

I'm very impressed because: I can't read it if the art is bad, and I hated the art of this manga. and yet! I continued reading (even tho I wanted to drop it after seeing the art in ch1). that's really impressive. the story was so gently paced and sweet and fluffy that I couldn't drop it. however, in ch6 (which is a separate story), the art got so bad that I did drop it :(
Savile Row no Yuuwaku
the art was gorgeous, the story was interesting and the smut was hot. the characters were cute and there were funny moments. on paper that sounds like my ideal yaoi but somehow there's a lot of things I'm unsatisfied with (still giving it 4 stars tho) I agree with the comments, something was off. the ending was unsatisfying somehow, even though technically there's a nice little happy ending tied in a bow. again, like a lot of people in the comments are saying, the uke didn't get to express his own sex appeal and potential, and the same 'got it all' but the uke didn't; he didn't even get his talent acknowledged by the seme. Also their whole relationship feels a bit one-sided because it feels like the seme doesn't see them as equals, neither in bed or business. well, I'm glad their love is mutual, that was really cute, but I'm also unsatisfied with the sex scenes because they stopped right at the best part EVERY TIME ╥﹏╥ to conclude, I wish there were some more things explored but overall it checked all the boxes for me and I liked it a lot, will def reread !! ~
Koi ni wa Mukanai Shokugyou
ahhhh wtf that was SO FREAKING CUTE I LOVED IT an actually interesting story, the idol concept was also really well-executed, the characters had dimension and weren't boring, the potential chemistry/tension between the characters really kept me on my toes and excitedly waiting, so that when they kissed I felt the heat in my stomach bruh XD oooof (ch4 freaking killed me man) it's perfect and I loved it but I will admit it was a bit rushed near the end. (I wish they made us suffer a bit more when he said 'I'm going to put an end to these feelings' bc ch4 was really effective (I almost cried bc my heart clenched so hard). instead it got really quickly resolved. welp, I guess less waiting for us haha) I was gna pace myself but devoured the plot it got all the reactions from me. I was freaking out while squealing, freaking out while nearly crying, freaking out over how cute it was XD
Portrait (natsume Kazuki)
wholesome and seriously good for a one shot. felt very completed. ah, it was so cute
Namae mo Shiranai Machiawase
it was more entertaining than I thought it'd be, and I liked the format where they don't talk until later and there's a lot short inner thoughts. it was very refreshing and a unique format. the other stories were okay too, but the first story was the best. very light and funny and interesting, had a nice balance of sensuality and comedy (people walking in on their flirting/dirty talks and them not giving a shit was hilarious)
Apron Yankee!
I read this 5 days ago and already can't remember how much I liked it, so that's a sign that it wasn't super great. I do remember the plot was pretty fast-paced, and the character's relationship was average in terms of development. I liked the art tho, both uke and seme were hot (uke was especially beautiful). smut was good too and it was quite silly and funny
