RoseMary's manga / #Manly Gay Couple(98)

Shounen Wa Asu Wo Korosu

Complete | Ishihara Satoru | 1998 released

"In that moment his gaze clashed with mine...I wanted the bastard more than ever!" ☚୧୨☛ Man, I loved this, how they were like cat and dog but there was this tension in the air, I could totally feel it, how they were already attracted to each other! Like sensei said, they don't cling to each other, but they appreciate each other's individuality. Like her, I also think that type of relationship is great...It's the type of relationship I like the most in BL! Their interaction is certainly one of the things I loved the most of this story! And I also liked how in general it was about being teenagers, like through the words of the teachers, the parents, or when Kei talked a bit with that teacher on the roof...I could feel I was really reading about actual teen guys, also through the way the characters behaved. All of this, in the attractive manly style of Ishihara Satoru! She's really one of my favourite authors, because she makes the type of BL I love to read! 5 stars for this one! > Oneshots included: • Ch. 6 My Caged Beast - Yakuza // Tattoo // A mad dog going on a rampage - I'm fine with open endings, but this was too open...I think for this story a continuation was necessary! • Ch. 7 Indigo Blue - Drug Trafficking // Tattoos - Ahhh my heart, what a bittersweet ending! But it was interesting. I liked the plot and the characters!

Kohitsuji Project

Ongoing | TAKENAKA Sei | 2000 released

My favourite by Takenaka Sei! Kohitsuji Project = Lamb Project xD The plot is hilarious: ═══ This lamb project is about a boy being accepted into a prestigious school not knowing he is the "sheep" that is meant to let the vampires learn that humans are not to be treated like food! ═══ Oh, and the characters are hot!! 2 Volumes (Complete) - Raw Vol. 2: 77mh.com / colist_227139.html > Note: It's a collection of stories. From the raw, the title story actually seems to be completely scanlated, so it ends just like that. It's the other two stories included that are not scanlated.

Hanjuku Orange

Complete | Ajimine Sakufu | 2006 released

Cousins // Half-Japanese Half-American Uke x Japanese Seme > Well, that turn at the end of chapter 4 when the seme suddenly rapes the uke just because of a misunderstanding on his part was bad...even when the uke tells him to stop and listen to him, the seme slaps him and stops his mouth! It was a funny and cute story, so that was in bad taste, considering the vibe of the story till then. Overall, I kinda liked it (for me it's a 2.5), but it was better if that didn't happen and actually I'm not a fan of the characters. Also, when they talk in the end, the seme says he doesn't regret it! And then the uke, after kicking / punching him a few times, says he didn't dislike it in the end...he also loves him, so of course they have their happy ending, but it was still a bad dynamic and it made me feel it was pointless to take it seriously and getting frustrated on the uke's behalf...

Nemureru Mori (tojitsuki Hajime)

Complete | Tojitsuki Hajime | 2005 released

I liked it, because I love this kind of stories. I gave it no more than 3 stars though, because there was not much to it...I mean, as a oneshot it wasn't much impressive. If it was developed into a longer story, I think it'd have been really good! For example, I think it'd have been interesting to see the exact moment that situation began and all the steps after that with more details. But here, everything was presented in a kinda "summarized" way in a few pages. Anyway, I like this author's art style and the fact that she also drew armpit hair! It's so good to see that, because so many mangaka somehow seem to forget that most guys have armpit hair and pubic hair!!
