The Mountain Bird Cries at Dawn
This was so funny, I loved the mafia members. Their reactions when Yamoto said he'd marry Yoru and the dad just said "okay" was priceless. The sex scenes were pretty sexy too ngl. I loved the relationship with Yamato and his dad because I love stories with these kind of Yakuza dad's, and I'm glad Yamato got to see his mom again and stayed on good terms with her and her new husband/boyfriend (I forgot which one).
Oni to Tengoku
This was a really interesting story, and I liked it. The first few chapters definitely made me uncomfortable and a bit mad for the lack of consent going on, but it wasn't anything I was surprised about and Aoki sensei was lovable and precious and I wanted to see how things would turn out for him. I'm glad there was some character development with Manabu, although it wasn't a lot :// ESPECIALLY AFTER HE JUST STRAIGHT UP KISSED THAT BLONDE TEACHER. But as long as Aoki sensei is genuinely happy, then we're Gucci. Edit: after reading more (bc when I wrote this I didn't know there'd be more volumes) I can truly say that manabu actually did have quite a bit of character development! Yayy
Iiko no Furi wa mou Yameru
Y'all this was cuuuuteee and fluffyyy. The smut was great, and both main characters were good-looking. I'm glad they went from temporary boyfriends to an actual relationship. ️️
Itoshi no XL Saizu
Haha started this awhile ago, but glad to see that there's a new update. Yamamoto is so cute, and these two are definitely compatible and perfect for one-another. There were also quite a few funny scenes.
Konya mo Nemurenai
Endo was so good-looking, but I just wish we could have seen him in his 190 cm human world form more often. Hikiri was also quite sweet and a bit awkward at times, but we love that. ALSO, I LOVE MARK SM he is literally so funny, amazing, and quite caring. I was surprised when I saw his true form tbh, because he was handsome. Wish there were more steamy scenes, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. And yayy for the sequel~
Ore no Oniku-chan
I read Kemono Asabi before this and while I liked it, this one was def lighter and had more sweet moments in it. The art is beautiful, and Chiaki was really pretty. I love when the Ukes have those tongue piercings. Also, I really like how they transitioned to Masaki cutting his bangs, signaling that's there's more to him and that it's not over with his story yet.
Kimi no Tabegoro
Y'all this was a good read. I love how Kana didn't let himself be harassed/raped by Ayato when he wasn't prepared for it. And instead of feeling bad for pushing him away and going back to apologize, he told Ayato that they needed to take a break and think things over. The pacing was nice and the way things were handled was quite appropriate, besides the fact that they got each other off haha. But ngl Ayato's hott and we like a good possessive Seme who's a bit wild in bed hohoo.

AAAAAGH I'M CRYING THAT IT'S OVER BUT I LOVED ALL OF IT. This was so cute and wholesome, and it's absolutely one of my favorites. Yohan was so big and sweet, but could totally go into beast mode when he wanted to. I loved Gyoon's and Soohwa relationship with each other, and I'm glad that both couples got a happy ending together. I'm glad this story showed that just because someone may have some disabilities they're living with, doesn't make them pitiable or more helpless/incapable than others without them. Imma miss looking forward to seeing new updates, but I love the journey I went on with this story.
Houtou Musuko to Koi no Ana
Y'ALL MY HEART. I wasn't sure how I was gonna feel about this after I found out they were cousins, but I ended up loving this story and the characters. The insecurities and self-doubt that Minori faces about his sexuality and the fact that the one he likes is his cousin and student, they all got me because it genuinely felt relatable/realistic. I'm a sucker for these kind of stories. Also, Tetsurou is so sweet and understanding, like those are the kind of friends that are needed but aren't exactly the easiest to come by. I hope he finds someone soon.
