Sayonara Alpha Extra Edition
A lovely little extra to ‘Sayonara Alpha’ that looked at the past and present. It’s so nice to see them happy together after waiting all those years
Mitto mo Nai Koi
Trigger warnings: Rape, domestic violence, abusive seme Izumu-kun is a quiet college student who tends to avoid social outings. When he catches the eye of Kurokawa-senpai, the older student sweeps him into a relationship that has the lonely Izumu feeling content. That is, until senpai starts showing another side to himself. An intensely jealous and possessive side that is so extreme that Izumu is shocked to realise that Kurokawa is even jealous of the time he spends at his dead cousins grave. In a fit of jealous fury, Kurokawa goes so far as to rape Izumu on the grave of his cousin. Obviously senpai is yandere. This is a psychological story and Izumu is the one who apologises after Kurokawa hits him and abuses in any way. This is clear domestic violence, to the point others comment on his injuries. While I love a good yandere story, if they cannot protect and care for their lover even from themselves, then it’s not for me. There is NOTHING romantic about an abusive relationship. Even with senpai’s backstory, there is no justification to rape, hit, demean etc, the one you profess to love. All I see is a future of bruises and excuses.
Baby, Punk Kid
This Omegaverse is a manhwa (so read left to right) that focuses on the Kkangpae (Korean mafia) of the Taesan Group. With the death of the current leader there is a transition that boss Seojin (alpha) is overseeing. With assassins targeting him, he assumes that the desperate thug pulling a knife on him is from a rival group. However, Harim (omega) is merely a desperate omega looking for fast cash. Now, under the watchful eye of Seojin, Harim’s bubbly and energetic personality starts to shine. He drags the older man out to have fun, breaks things he cleans, and inserts his cheeky self right into the heart of a scary, soon to be, crime boss. I loved the adorable Hajim, and the way he bought out the protective alpha in Seojin was enough to make me pop an ovary. Loved the story, recommended!
Torokeru Kami-kon
Loved Jin-chan and Eichi’s story! The intensity of Jin’s gaze as it followed Eichi, the turmoil of emotions between the two, the stolen sexy moments…all *chefs kiss*. I also really appreciated that the mangaka gave us some perspective from Jin-chan’s side. A fantastic story.
Rojiura Pussycat
Trigger Warning: Rape, manipulation, attempted rape Ayafumi is a tough delinquent type. A playboy who seems used to finding an available woman to use with no feelings or expectations to be met. When he met high school senior Nazuku he had been slipped a roofie and he grabbed the boy and raped him for his own satisfaction. He then manipulated the rather naive boy into being his fuck buddy every day after school. There really is nothing about this start that makes Aya a likeable character. But he is good looking, and tough with tattoos and an air of intimidation. He also proved to be possessive and protective of his ‘favourite’ and even started to show signs of softness for Nazuku that had the boy flustered and confused, but also happy. It’s a bit difficult to conceive that a boy like Nazuku would fall for his rapist, but he was really a little odd himself in his outlook and approach to life. And the softer Aya we saw emerge for Nazuku was really quite loveable.
Osananajimi Irony
Idk what the recent comments are on about coz I loved this story. Super possessive seme with a serious and rather unapproachable demeanour and a sweet faced, older uke who is also needy for the seme but a bit better adjusted. Just my cup of tea. Sakasake Ryou has loved Ikegaki Yuuta pretty much from their first meeting. When the older Yuuta met his neighbour Ryou-kun he took the serious faced little guy as his own special little brother and they grew up together secure in the affection of each other. That was until Yuuta got his first girlfriend and Ryou’s world shifted on its axis. I loved this story because of the depth of connection between the MCs. Once they worked on their communication you knew they were perfect for each other.
Hikizuru Oto
It’s a twisted story of manipulation and obsession that makes up a relationship between 2 childhood friends. Any love between these guys has no chance to flourish amidst the toxic foundation of guilt, lies and deceit. This is a well done psychological story but I find it a bit sad that they will never be able to have a happy loving relationship together.
Osananajimi wa boku no hero!
The adorably sweet florist Haruzake Nao has been a magnet for perverts since he was a child. His cousin Monjirou, Vice President of the Tadano Group has always been his hero protector, keeping a close eye on the trusting little florist and rescuing him from trouble countless times. Mon-chan is an intensely protective character but he doesn’t restrict Nao. I love how he finds comfort in Nao’s company, relaxing from the high pressure job where he has the reputation of being an ice man. Each of these MCs are good for the other. Them falling in love seems perfectly natural given their history. Such a lovely story; being cousins seems to be a real non issue when the feelings are this deep.
Ijimekko to Nakimushikun
Kyosuke has known Takashi since they were little and training in their first dojo together. At that time, Takashi made Kyosuke cry and the stoic young boy forevermore fell for that crying face. Now years later and Kyosuke has still never beaten Takashi in a fight, but these days he’s experiencing ‘hands on’ in a whole new way. I loved both MCs, the clueless Kyosuk and the impassive Takashi who loves him.
