Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #College(65)

My favourite couple of the series living together! It’s pretty much perfect (though I wouldn’t have objected to sensei being hospitalised for a few months).

Adorable story! Kiumi was a real man slut but he was so cute and loveable that you just don’t care. He is young, gay, cute and confident and so far in the extrovert column he practically defines it. Shizume was a tall, dark and beautiful seme who likes control. These two together must be the most unlikely duo ever, but how they got together and fall for each other was full of hot, sexy moments and beautiful art.

As a spin off from Shuu and Nanami’s story, this manga about Chiaki and Ayumi is a COMPLETELY different kind of tale. The two MCs have been friends for 2 years. An unlikely friendship with the rather slutty yet vulnerable Chiaki and his more stoic friend, Ayumi. Chiaki falls for surfer Shuu but his feelings are never reciprocated. He is unaware that Ayumi has noticed his feelings until he finds himself chained to Ayumi’s bed following a night between the 2 MCs. And so begins a change for these 2 as they battle wits and Ayumi shares his possessive love with his shocked and furious friend. Without a doubt, Ayumi comes across as a bit of a sociopath/stalker/scary guy. But Chiaki is no pushover and they soon start to really understand each other on a deeper level. Contrary to many of those who didn’t like the seme or the story, I enjoyed the touch of crazy here. Chiaki did not let Ayumi have the upper hand for long, and the 2 MCs settled into understanding each other on new levels. That was what helped this story be special. The established friendship and the way Chiaki finally began to see Ayumi in a new way was what won me over the most.

Loved both these stories, but the 3 friends was my favourite by far. Eiji has been the object of his 2 childhood friends romantic attention since they were little. Haruki-kun and Ikumi-kun are Eiji’s best friends but when a girl shows an interest in Eiji, his friends let him know that they aren’t joking when they say they love him, and he needs to choose one of them. What I loved about this story was that it was impossible to choose one friend over the other, and that neither Haruki nor Ikumi were sexually interested in each other but were friendly rivals with enough shared history to work together to win Eiji. I loved their competitiveness and how that was put aside for Eiji. I thought the story was sweet, funny and hot at the same time. I loved all the MCs. The second story was fantastic with an adorable, puppy like kouhai and his bossy senpai falling for each other at work. I loved how the irresistible cuteness each saw in the other had some interesting consequences!

3 super cute stories with some characters with quirks or fetishes and the special guy who loved them. There was a crybaby, a germaphobe with OCD and a guy with a leg fetish. Sweet characters and nice art, these were really enjoyable

Reading about the quietly reserved Taichi and the sociable extrovert Nao was a wonderful way to spend an evening. Starting when these ex lovers meet each other again at uni, the author surprised me by giving them the maturity to decide to be friends again. That gave the opportunity to have some flashbacks and you start to realise that Taichi never stopped loving the bubbly Nao. I loved that quiet yearning he showed, and then as Nao started falling for his friend again and the two had sex, there was enough sexual tension between the two to make that a satisfyingly hot read. I enjoyed all the story because both guys obviously adored each other, but that doesn’t mean things are easy. They had adjustments to make for each other, arguments to resolve, communication problems to sort out and then planning for their future; all while working, studying and spending time with some of the best friends I have come across in a yaoi. I especially loved the girls, how the mangaka made them so likeable and such good friends. But most of all, even when things were tough, I really appreciated the love between the 2 MCs that was challenged, but never in doubt.

Such a surprisingly adorable story! Both characters were irresistible in their own way with the short yet tough and feisty uke and the 190cm tall seme who adores him (and manages that temper incredibly well!).

These sisters both have such a sweet love story, this is totally worth a read.

College students Hinata and Yuuma have been best friends for years. Which is why the inexperienced Hinata feels bad that his lack of ever having had a girlfriend makes him unable to help his friend when he overheard that Yuuma was having problems with someone he loves. That’s ok though, because Yuuma has some great ideas on how to gather some sexual skills. It’s just a little more hands on than Hinata expected.

This was a very sweet story that dealt with some of the insecurities of falling in love with your best friend who always dated girls. Shousuke and Tomoki were both adorable and I was surprised to find that it was Tomoki who was the most ready to move with his feelings.
