Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #Re-encounter(11)

Thought the sex friend was a real bastard to treat his lover like that (deliberately making sure he saw the sex). It’s not as if he loved him and was fighting for him, he was just being a dick. Was nice to see them a year down the track, wasn’t sure if the uke would settle with one special guy.

Enjoyable stories, cute characters. Just need some lube for the novices and they’ll be good to go

The most adorable pair who manage to wholeheartedly love and support each other. This was a joy to read.

Sweet reunion story.

A beautiful story about the sweetest princess uke with a short beard that ever existed. This gay man was ridiculously loveable and his lover was a man who paid attention to his partners moods and needs. Truly fluffy feel good, I will be reading this one many more times.

Childhood friends Yousuke and Shuu knew each other for a short time when they were young, but that meeting left a lasting impression on them both. Now in senior year at high school Shuu is staying at his grandmothers home and attending the same school as Yousuke. Shuu’s cold and prickly attitude towards the warmly extroverted Yousuke leads him to think that Shuu is holding a grudge from the past. However, that wasn’t going to stop Yousuke from confronting the quiet boy and learning what the problem really was. This story is so adorable, carried by the caring and kind Yousuke as we follow his side of the story (for the most part), experiencing his growing attraction and awareness of Shuu as well as the confusion. Definitely romantic, this sweet story is well worth a read.

A sweet reunion story with some serious company rivalry and all the funny cringe of sleeping with the enemy.

A lot of potential with beautiful art, an interesting backstory and some fun side characters, but each new chapter felt like a big jump ahead in what had happened. Like one moment they were arguing and the next chapter it was kisses and hugs. Kept giving me mental whiplash. A shame because this should have been 5 stars except for the poor storyboarding.

Trigger Warning: Dubious Consent/ Rape Sunny dispositioned and outgoing, Tsurugi has been best friends with the gloomy and shy Kiyou since they were little. As they grew up Kiyou’s close friendship with Tsurugi became a confusing attraction that grew stronger, but so did his fear of the pressure to be “normal.” Overwhelmed, Kiyou lashed out at Tsurugi, only to find the next day that his friend had transferred away. Now he can be “normal” but is normal what he wants when he meets Tsurugi again just before the start of University? I loved this story. It seemed to be the usual childhood friends to lovers trope that I enjoy, but it took a darker turn with a move to some seriously obsessive and possessive behaviour. There is no doubt that there are some yandere tendencies that come to light and that both MCs aren’t your average guy but what makes it all come together and work is that their love for each other is so strong. Obsessive and a little unhealthy? Yes. Strong and constant? Definitely.

I love a story with a stoic partner, and making it the shorter and cute uke gave him a lovely untouchable vibe that only the seme could see beyond. Ichinose Kei had learned kendo from the time he was a child in order to be Mita Hikaru’s hero. When Hikaro’s family moved he stuck with the sport and earned the nickname Samurai. Now that Hikaro has returned, Kei is truly stoic however that doesn’t mean that Hikaro is blind to the kindness that has always been at the core of the boy he has loved forever. A heartwarming and sweet story about reuniting friends, falling in love and ice cream.
