Kimi wa Hiniku na KiraKira Boshi
Leading stage actors Ayumu and Yuusei couldn’t be more different to each other. This sweet story follows them as they slowly strike up a surprising friendship that is supportive and positive. Couples that are good for each other, like in this story, are really irresistible. This cute story is definitely worth a read ♡\( ̄▽ ̄)/♡
Ore no Tsugai ha Thoroughbread Omega
Leo Asaka is an alpha and second generation actor. Serious and determined to be successful on his own merits, Leo couldn’t be more opposite his new co star in an upcoming film, Eito Yanagi. Eito is another alpha second generation actor; son to a famous modeling mother. However, he is more wild and carefree than Leo and the two seem like they are fated to clash. Things aren’t as they always appear at first meeting though. Eito’s brilliant acting skills have Leo reassessing his first impression, and when the director sends the two off to get to know each other better their relationship goes from professional to intimate. I loved some of the moments of intense connection between Leo and Eito. Well written Omegaverse stories are great at giving that touch of desperation and yearning that can only come with fated pairs. I also appreciated their loyalty to each other and the way they stood beside each other even when events were against them. Overall, a recommended read.
Brother X Brother
An enjoyable story about three ‘brothers’ (not blood related) and the will left by their father that will have them living under 1 roof for a month. I would have been happy to have had the story wrap up at the end of the movie premiere scene as the last few chapters dragged a bit, but it was a good ending still.
Father Complex
20yo model turned actor Fukami Rei is starring in a production featuring the man he has admired for years, Agawa Ryuuji. He begins a determined pursuit of the man he has fallen for, someone who is old enough to be his father. Someone who knew his mother years ago. I thought this story was really good. It had me wondering all the way through and I loved the touch of obsessiveness in Rei’s love for Ryuuji.
Love Lesson (chidori peko)
A cute story set in the entertainment industry. Model and upcoming actor Ayami is offered some 1:1 special training for his upcoming movie. Experienced male lead Mineyuki has had a bit of a scandalous reputation in the past, but he had fallen for Ayami and offers him some lessons on romance on film. Lurking in the background as these 2 fall in love is the controlling studio and managers who keep their stars on a tight leash.
Backstage de Aimashou
A stoic style stage actor and the gentle model turned actor. A sweet story set in the world of actors and fans, these two become a strong pair. As always with this mangaka, the art was great too.
