RoseMary's manga / #Young Adult(35)

Part-time Lecturer at an Art Prep School (20) x Sculpture Teacher (32) - I really like this story! Although I don't like plots involving at some point some anonymous stalker or weirdo secretly lurking around and bullying the uke and warning him to stay away from the seme and such, I really like the prep art school as setting and I was really liking the characters and the development of their relationship. The art is also beautiful. I especially like how the mangaka drew their eyes and their various expressions! Too bad that the story is unfinished and, if it remains like this, it's not even yaoi but shounen ai, as they didn't reach the point of being intimate yet, apart from that one good kissing scene. So, I would really love to see what would happen next, but sadly the story has been unfinished for so many years already...

It's been 5 years since the orphan Akito (the uke) was taken in by his childhood friend Kou's family after his parents died in an accident when he was 16. After graduating from high school, Kou became a uni student, while Akito started working at their family's restaurant. Everything seemed fine, until recently Akito had a certain accident and became amnesiac! Will he recover his memory? And what caused his accident in the first place? > It's not a proper family affair, in the end it's friends become lovers theme, but they live under the same roof as part of the same family, so I still consider it a story like that... > pp. 154-184: Oneshot included called "Sweet 2 Weeks" - Nakaya asks his part-time job coworker and friend Nonaka to help him to babysit his nephew for 2 weeks. [[Childcare // Uni Students // Mutual Pining // Ear Piercings]]

Uni student (fashion and make-up major) and amateur model Nanami x his idol, top model COU (28). > Tbh, I don't know why the rating is kinda low...Well, it's true that the story doesn't offer anything new, but in terms of showbiz theme it wasn't bad at all. For those like me who always enjoy reading showbiz BL, I think it's worth reading. And this is actually this author's first work, so while there's always room for improvement, I think it's good as a start. Overall, I really liked it!

Virgin uni student (21) falls for his big sister's soon-to-be husband, who turns out to be a con-man! > Kyuugou never fails to give me exciting readings! I love her stories!

«✿(())✿» Uni Student (21) x Salaryman (30) / Bisexual Seme x Virgin Gay Uke - Somehow it ended up being so sweet! I like how the cool hot Rou who never fell in love before actually saw Yoshino on the train many times before (note in ch. 1 p. 12 Rou is there watching him), so it made everything more precious going back to the beginning when at the bar Rou goes with Yoshino at the back! And I also appreciated the meanings of the cocktails Rou gave to Yoshino! I always like such details! It really shows how much Rou was already in love with him and how he was constantly watching and wanting him, despite his push-and-pull strategy haha for the first time in his life the cool Rou lost his composure and became desperate for love! # Seme with silver-dyed hair

Salaryman (30) x Uni Student|Part-time Bartender (20)

Cafè Owner (27) x Uni Student (20) // Straight Uke x Bisexual Seme .✲୧୨✲. Another amazing slow burn Shounen Ai by Furuya Nagisa! I really liked how they met (I love chance encounter stories, because once you see them falling in love, it feels like that was actually a fateful encounter!) and the development of their relationship. In particular, it was great how in ch. 6 they were in the exact same place where they met and it was the same situation but reversed...that showed their progress...thinking about their first meeting and how Kengo-san kissed him when he saw him crying...and then how much Sora-kun's feelings developed, bringing him to the point that this time he was the one who kissed Kengo-san! I loved that parallelism, it was so well-thought! From their first encounter to the end, it was so romantic and so sweet ♡ At first, Sora-kun felt like he lost everything, but that doesn't seem to be the case at all! Hehe ;)

I don't know...well, I was quite excited to read this, because it seemed my kind of story and at the beginning it really was. I liked the art style and I really liked the characters. I liked how they met and there was a good vibe / atmosphere going on. But then somehow it failed to captivate me. While I was curious to see how they would have gotten together, the development of their relationship and the dynamics of the story didn't impress me much then...I mean, it was a good story and I liked it, but I wasn't much satisfied. The first two chapters were really good and made me anticipating, but then with every other chapter ending and nothing much happening, my excitement faded. And just like that, it was already the ending of the story. Even the thing about the model not revealing his name, at first it made him kinda mysterious and interesting, but then we still didn't get to find out not even in the end and that was a bit weird. So, yeah, it left me wanting more... >> Note: it's Shounen Ai not Yaoi!!

1 Volume (Complete) - Hope to read the whole story...
