Akutai wa Toiki to Mazariau
While I was rereading this (I forgot what it was about), I was wondering why the fuck I put this on my faves list. The younger guy was a sociopath, and I couldn't understand how the other guy suddenly allowed the kiss just a few moments after pointing out it's not consensual like lol what changed your mind dude idk man it's not my cup of tea at all, what was i thinking. i couldn't even finish reading it after chapter 3. i'll give this one a chance and also read the sequel if i have the time.
Manazashi No Hayagane
This mangaka usually takes on the hardships of being gay in the society quite realistically. Kudos to that, but the romance between the charavters are a bit romanticized but oh well haha this is a BL book after all
Hageshi Torai Shimashou Ka
Damn, I love how those muscles don't look too bara, like it's a mix of ikemen with a tinge of bara = this hotness Update: CHAPTER 2: THE MUSCLES DEFLATED I'M SO DISAPPOINTED
Barairo no Kenkyuu to Hanakurafu Kimi
I couldn't add more tags so here it is: First story: researcher and rose-eater reencounter Second story: sports club members, guy that follows his desires without thinking, cute dog-like uke Third: divorcee about to get revenge with a host who's unexpectedly interested in him Fourth: masochist seme and sadist uke, delinquents, flashback
Kingyo no Koi
Seme is unhealthily possessive: even if the author wants to make it look cute, it doesn't reach its full kawaii potential 'cause of the seme's selfishness. So self-centered. Even at the end, he says "for the one I love", there's still the concept of himself to it. I didn't see any character development. The uke just compromised to the brat seme and called it a day.

Why did the second story end up like that??? It ended just when it was starting, what a letdown. It had potential, damn it. I was waiting to see actual character development, that ending stopped at realization. I still like it anyway, but I wish it was longer. (I read the author's notes and it seems she's thought of that end for a long time, I kinda forgive her now lol) The third story has an interesting setup. Guy brings his partner to the countryside since he's being possessive. He actually "stole" his partner from a girl before so he's scared it might happen to him, too. The story is told through his POV, it's an interesting setup.
