Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #Voice fetish(3)

These short stories were fantastic! They had some beautiful connections between MCs and I especially enjoyed the fetishes and slightly perverted characters. Sen and Amatatsu from the parallel world story were probably my favourite couple. There was something about the alter Sen saying that he would love Amatatsu in any reality that made me melt. The voice fetish story with Yuuto falling for the pretty Kazusa with the starkly contrasting deep voice was sweet. What Kazusa considered to be a personal flaw that had caused him much embarrassment was to Yuuta, pure perfection. His joyous enthusiasm was endearing and how Kazusa trusted him was truly sweet. I loved the friend zone story with Akichika and Minoru because the friends happiness was put first. Again, both MCs were really likeable and their ending was really sweet. The final story was with fat fetishist Yoshiwara falling head over heels in lustfilled love at first sight with Karatachi whose pro wrestler bulk had some marshmallowy softness that pressed all of Yoshiwara’s buttons. Yoshiwara was a total stalker pervert for that soft body and stern face, he had Karatachi all flustered. This was the only story without a relationship forming, you could see the potential though because Yoshiwara is not likely to let Karatachi slip through his groping fingers.

These stories were mostly nice (chapter 5 didn’t appeal to me). The mangaka likes to draw similar characters, all young and innocent looking. I would probably enjoy their work more in a school setting, it felt a bit like kids dressed up, but other than those critiques, these were an enjoyable read.

I have read these stories some time ago and still really like them. 2 interconnected stories with a big age gap, and a school setting ‘caught masturbating’ BL. My favourite was the main story with the corrupt temple priest (nearly 40) with the beautiful voice and the senior high school student who falls for him. His ex yakuza friend and the young homeless guy he saved from prostitution was sweet too, I am glad that he got his own story.
