Brother Shuffle!

Complete | mishima kazuhiko | 2012 released

This is one of my favourite stories by Mishima Kazuhiko. There were plenty of funny moments and I particularly loved seeing the other brothers expressions on the switched bodies. I also was happy that both boys had a love interest (the younger brother was a bit of a surprise ).

Marude Hajimete No Koi Mitai Ni

Complete | Yukimura | 2008 released

All these stories were so enjoyable. I loved the quirkiness of the first story, like the way they spent the day together; “Circle or square?!” Lol, so abrupt and sweeping his love along in his wake. I would love to see a longer version of the last story, something to make the most of that blackout

Suki no Mebae

I was a little hesitant reading this story as there were a few negative comments about the uke being bratty and spoilt or clueless and irritating, but I have to totally disagree. Far from being spoilt, Keisuke was pretty much a victim of his brothers physical and verbal abuse (the older sibling struggled with taking on a father role after their dad died). If he wasn’t being hit or yelled at, he was hiding from his mum and brother fighting. It was so distressing for him he ran away from home. Fortunately this consisted of staying with his brother’s childhood friend, Hisashi, who was kind and gentle and who had fallen for this boy when he was merely 13. When Hisashi finally shared that he had “dangerous” feelings for Keisuke, Keisuke was very surprised and was a little confused as he started to recognise his own reciprocating feelings. I found all of this beautiful and his reactions totally relatable (especially given that he was only 16 or 17). I loved the intensity of how they eventually came together, the artwork was fantastic and the mangaka was a talented gem in portraying Hisashi’s passion and Keisuke’s nervous determination. Simply gorgeous! I also enjoyed the brothers story and hope that he will be ble to stop lashing out and simply relish being the important one to his new stepbrother.

Kyoudai-biyori

A truly sweet story of two brothers and an innocent kiss that sparks a shift in perception.

Motto Hanashi o Shitai no Dakedo.

Complete | KAWAMURA Rino | 2000 released

Ayumu and Touma were thoroughly irresistible. I loved how the author gave us the opportunity to see some key moments from both points of view. I also loved how much Touma cherished Ayumu. Such a sweet, beautiful story

Houkago no Fujun

Sweet, sweet love. This was such a wonderful, fluffy and feel good story.

Neko x Neko

Complete | Mio Tatsumoto | 2000 released

What crazy world is this? A yaoi that has a loving, supportive pair who communicate well and grow as a couple together?! This was so beautiful; the MCs showed their love through all the daily moments of shared glances and touches, and they evolved as a couple in the sweetest ways. Absolutely loved the switching too!

Secret (ARAYA Miki)

That was so sweet I have a dozen cavities! Yuu and his many outfits were a delight, and sensei was adorable as the focal point for the little circle of cross dressers.

Very cute pair. I liked how the uke was actively participating and requesting during their hot sex scene. Yaoi usually have the “no, stop = keep going” thing happening. It was hotter reading about someone really into the experience

Hitotsu Futatsu Himitsu

Complete | SASAMARU Yuuge | 2012 released

Each of these short stories were absolutely adorable. I particularly loved the first one with sensei x student. It was surprisingly erotic and sexy, maybe because even though the student was the aggressor sexually, he was also endearingly innocent and so obviously enjoying “helping” sensei.
