Kamisama to Tobenai Tsukai
Literally one of my favorites. The art is so cute and I love the characters.
Hitori to Hitori no 3650nichi
First story: When I first "opened" the book, I thought I wouldn't enjoy the art, and was a bit hesitant because art is an important part of the story for me. BUT AS I CONTINUED READING I ENDED UP LOVING IT and I love the way the author drew the eyes so much, you could def see the improvements of the author. This story was so heavy, but I loved the plot and seme and how kind and loving he was. I feel bad for the uke (I am REALLY bad with names), and even though he called his friend disgusting because he liked him, I still didn't hate him. He had feelings for him as well, but he caved into the pressure and expectations of society, and I understand how conflicting and scary that can be. Of course I wish he didn't call his friend disgusting, I'm sure the seme wouldn't be as strong and prepared as he was after all those years passed. I'm sooo glad the seme had the courage and love to help the uke also mend his scars. ️ Second story: Yoooo I love this sm. The seme was so hot, and I love how the uke was strong but didn't have a lot of stamina in bed . The art in this was really good, and this was actually the story I was looking forward to once I saw the intro page to the yaoi itself. You could tell The uke was really lonely, so the fact that the seme just misunderstood what he said and left after fcking him. And the uke's (sad and unsure) face when he saw the caller ID of the seme :((. This is why you should talk things out and ask what they mean, because you never know unless they say it specifically.
Trap City
Y'ALL WTF THIS WAS BETTER THAN I EXPECTED. I loved this so much. I love the characters, and the development. Also, Noah earned my respect and really grasped me as a likable/ovable character when they showed the flashback with him interfering with *spoilers ahead* .... young Rex's poisoned drink. AND the fact that he had an adorable little sister that he was protecting. AND I LOVED THAT REX WAS RESPECTABLE AND HOT AND LOVING. And they raised her together But the nuns :( and other children :(( and his BROTHER :((( Also, are we going to talk about how that bartender (forgot his name) was seriously good-looking as well? And that he is such a great friend to Noah? But this was pretty dark, although I knew it would be to begin with. But I genuinely think this has to be one of my favorite Mafia/Gang stories. I loved the ending sm.
Dream Away
ARRRGHHH THIS WAS SO GOOD. It was so wholesome, and Doyun and Jihan are such amazing characters. Tbh Doyun is SO different from how he appears on the outside; he seems like someone who lacks self-awareness and is just a sweet puppy-dog type seme, which, he is in a way, but HE IS WAY MORE AWARE AND A DADDY THAN I WAS EXPECTING AND I LOVE IT. Especially in the second season. Also, *spoiler*.... I really did not like that stalker friend (I don't remember his name), and he just really made me uncomfortable, especially that scene where he gave Doyun his number, walked away, then came back and VERY CREEPILY and UNCOMFORTABLY looked over Doyun's shoulder and then gave that unsettling smile at him. I'm glad he got put in his place though, because he really did have it coming. But regardless, I'm so glad the grandma survived. Also, the scene at the end where he just gave Doyun and Jihan gifts was pretty sweet ngl. AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT SEO-HUN AND GEON-WOO? THEY WERE SO ADORABLE WTF. They are literally one of the best sub-couples I have seen. Ngl obvs didn't like them at first, but I'm so glad they became an even bigger part of the story later on. Also, some of the parts in here were STeAmY even though it's just a shounen ai (RIP T_T). A lot of character development for sure.
Jikyuu Jisoku de Nani ga Warui
I reaalllyy enjoyed this. The seme was actually loving towards the uke, and he was also REALLY good-looking. I was surprised that he was so gentle (most times) and thoughtful, and OMG I just love it. Def way better than I thought it would be, and the author's art had also really improved
Konya Kimi to Nemuritai
Omg y'all this made my heart ache and then melt. At the beginning I was a bit irritated that Kanzaki was expecting Futagami to just remember him or forgive him after he was the one who had left, but I get that people can change. I love the support system that occured between Kanzaki and Futagami towards the end. It's sad that Futagami had to go through those kinds of experiences just because he thought that was the only thing he could be used for. :( BUT HE PICKED HIMSELF UP AND TURNED HIS LIFE AROUND AND I LOVE THAT. Go you. Anyways, ngl I also prefer Futagami with black hair - it suits him. He's really good looking. And so is Kazuki. I really enjoyed this more than I thought I would.
Hell & High Water
YOOO I LOVED THIS SO MUCH. ngl I loved Dex the moment he first appeared. I just love his witty comebacks and joyful personality. And Sloane . BUT OMG DID Y'ALL SEE HOW CLOSE CAEL AND DEX WERE? And when Cael was in his animal form and Send gave him a hug?? My heart melted. I live their sibling bond. And I love the Dad. Best dad. I loved the story of bonding, and how supporting Sex was. Surprisingly this has to be one of my favorite stories. I thought all of the relationships going on in the team were really adorbale. And CALVIN AND HOBBS? Fr tho Some parts seriously had me . And it was a little fast, I wish they showed more slow, drawn out scenes of the two of them.

This was an adventure... I REALLY appreciate the translators notes, they helped A LOT. It cleared up some misunderstandings, and even warned us to be cautious of the terminology and fetishization that occured in some parts of this story.
