RoseMary's manga / #Theater(21)

~~ Moonlight Garden - When I read the plot, I thought this would be interesting, but it turned out to be pretty average. Anyway, it's still a nice and funny story to read, especially for those who like both Shoujo and BL. Also, I'm always intrigued by gender bender, even though in this case it wasn't very interesting, as Nakahara knew right away that Yuuki was a girl. Even so, I liked them together and also the other characters. In particular, I liked the relationship between the student council president Kusakabe and the student council secretary Fujimura ➸ BL as subplot! hehe (✦‿✦) Oh, and I appreciated the references to Shakespeare's works. So overall, I liked this story.

1 Volume (Complete) - Waiting for translation for the other chapters.

Middle School // Drama Club // Track and Field // Injury // Love Triangle // Jealousy // Stepmother // Tomboy I liked how they met and that at the end they went to the place of their first encounter. It's a cute romance with gender bender. It's shoujo ai, but it actually feels like an old-school shoujo, so I think it's okay to read for anyone, but I'd say especially for GL beginners. The main point of the story is that what matters is the substance and not the shell and also finding one's way in life... It's quite cheesy, but overall it's nice to read. Personally, I like this type of couple! The only thing that seems kinda weak is the final resolution of conflict.

Collection of three nice slice of life stories (btw it's shoujo ai, not yuri): ● Knife Edge Girl - A week before the national entrance exam, Emiri goes to visit her childhood friend, Ai-chan, and asks for a good luck kiss... 》 Ai-chan is a tsundere, but she's actually very sweet! And Emiri..."I might need an even more powerful ritual next time, though. After a hug and a kiss comes..." haha such a greedy girl! ● Tourteau Fromagé - Miwa's boring OL life suddenly becomes exciting when she meets the gorgeous Nagae-san, who is a stage actress. 》 I really liked this story because I like chance encounters and I love this type of couple in GL! For this, I'd give 4 ● Graffiti - Two women who use the same desk at different times of the day communicate by drawing messages on the desk top. Kana begins to happily anticipate exchanging these messages and finds herself wishing to know who this stranger is who shares her desk...

Collection of stories: • Have You Seen These Shoes?/Like a Cinderella - At the dental clinic, a girl mixed her shoes up with those of another girl, who is now searching for her missing shoe and hoping to return the wrong one to its owner..."But seriously, leaving you with one of her shoes...it looks like you've found Cinderella" haha cute and funny! • Golden Shoes, Silver Shoes/The Honest Princess - It's the same story of the first chapter, but it's from the pov of the girl who mixed the shoes up. • Ookami no Yuuutsu https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/wolf_woebegone#2 - Age Gap // Elevator Operator // Gothic Lolita // Plot Twist • My Duckling http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/tsubomi_anthology/mf/v04/c005/2/ - College // Childhood Friends // Possessive Girl // Freckles // Glasses It's about a girl who's taken another girl under her wing and is afraid to let her go. • The Snow Princess https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/the_snow_princess - Theater // Unrequited Love It's about the leads in a theatrical production of The Snow Queen. • Hamidashi Ongakutai 1 Volume (Complete)

(()) "People of the World" Theatrical Company's Actor Susami x High-school Student Hashiba (17), who then joins the company to substitute an injured actress in a play. > Involving also the company's chairman Oginome and his former lover Tomomi, who was also an actor in the company before, but then went over to another company called "Black", managed by Oginome's senpai Kuroda, who is the antagonist of the story and tries to sabotage "People of the World". In the end, thankfully Oginome and Tomomi come together again and it's a happy ending for them too! The very ending, although rushed, was fun and cute! Especially Susami's adlib in the play haha I loved Hashiba and Susami together!

Ch. 1-2 Yatte Yaru, Konya! - Incest // Cousins // Reunion // Revenge Ch. 3 First Step - Dancing // Theater // Stage Actors // Older Seme - [[Also published in Hisuiiro no Kaze, ch. 4. There there's also the story in ch. 5 called "Love Song" that is inter-linked to and set after the events of "First Step" and it's focused on the established adult couple of Saeki and Yoshiki.]] > 1 Volume (Complete) - Dropped...

2007-released Collection of older works by Oumi Shinano: • Ch. 1 Where Miracle Exists? - Youth / Male Prostitute x Salaryman // Straight Seme // Older Seme // Reencounter • Ch. 2-3 Hisuiiro no Kaze / Wind of the Green Jade - Youth / High-school Student x Famous Novelist (the so-called “Hard-boiled man”) // Seaside Village // Half-Japanese Half-German Uke // Jade-green Eyes // Motorcycle // Family Drama // Older Seme > Wind of the Green Jade is actually the title of the story that the novelist wrote at the end of the story and dedicated to Midori. • Ch. 4 First Step - Dancing // Theater // Stage Actors // Older Seme - [[Also published in Yatte Yaru, Konya!, ch. 3 - mangago.me / read-manga / yatte_yaru_konya / an / yatte-yaru-konya--chapter-3.html / 3 /]] • Ch. 5 Love Song - Inter-linked to and set after the events of ch. 4, it's focused on the established adult couple of Saeki and Yoshiki. > Too bad for the one-sided sex / "rape as a start of relationship" often found in Oumi Shinano's stories! Here, the only story that doesn't have such element is the last one. Anyway, overall I liked all the stories, but for the plot and my personal tastes I really liked the first story and the second story (the title story). For those two maybe I'd have given it 4 stars...

"My cute little red riding hood" - Senpai x Kouhai // Drama Club // Plot Twist ️ Love it! It's very short but brilliant! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
