Katappashi Kara Zenbu Koi
From Yakuza to a salaryman and his boss, these one shots have a range of sweet BL These guys were worth another read.
Koi To Wana
Loved these, especially the flower shop story (the manager was drawn amazingly well, especially the lips!). The main story grew on me, I loved most the extra chapter with the visit to “young master’s” home. That page where the guards came in the room cracked me up
Heart Strings
I love tough, sexy guys with a soft spot for the one they love. Sakaki-san was definitely a guy like that and Yuki was a perfect match for him. Totally enjoyable story, one to read and re-read!
Kyou, Hana No Gotoshi
Akira Norikazu is one of my favourite mangaka and this manga is a fine example of why. With truly beautiful artwork, the seme’s in this collection are powerful looking, frequently dangerous men who fall almost instantly for beautiful guys in a ‘forever’ kind of way. With yakuza in most of these, Akira Norikazu has opportunity to draw these men as dangerous predators you wouldn’t want to mess with (eg. http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/kyou_hana_no_gotoshi/mf/v01/c001/24/ ). Such lucky uke’s!
Trigger
A great escape with one shots full of hot, sexy semes and a range of adorable ukes. My only complaint is that I think many have the potential to be longer, more developed stories which would be even better.
Beast & Feast
A Yakuza and detective in a relationship? Akira Norikazu is the mangaka? Yes please, sign me up for a dangerously sexy sou seme and a beautiful uke who can hold his own in a tough situation. Add in those sexy scenes that could melt the polar icecaps and a Do Not Disturb sign on my door ‘coz I will ignore you until this is fully read and the last page turned.
Sugar Code
So cute! Natsume Isaku is a master of characters that don’t fit stereotypes or have quirks and/or idiosyncrasies that make them stand out in your memories. The seme in this story is both ruthlessly efficient and dangerous as well as a rumpled, scruffy homesbody. Totally adorable and fun to read.
Tight Rope
These childhood friends are adorable!! Now I gotta find the anime The manga also contains a sequel to Doushiyoumo Nai Keredo that is great if you want more of those two.
