Folklore no Gochisou
It’s a cute story but I would have liked more relationship development between these mismatched lovers. Shion has a past as a vampire that would seem at odds with him being poor, jobless and hooking up with random people for blood. Satou Shinobu’s a very sweet pushover who adores kids. Their connection was based on blood and sex which seemed greatly at odds for Satouks character. Still, the story was good overall and I do love a vampire romance.
Tsukiyo no Midare Zake
A smut filled cuckold story about a husband who enjoys secretly watching his wife get forcefully taken by his work colleague. Disturbing in that he removed any option for discussion and consent on her behalf, but interesting that the colleague fell for the wife.
Warui ko demo ii?
Sequel to I Want To Be Naughty, this one had a little more angst as the airheaded delinquent, Towa fumbles with defining his relationship with the student council President. We see the mix of bullying cruelty and protectiveness of Mikado and the clueless innocence of Towa. All the original friends and Towa’s brothers are there as well as a new seductive potential uke. I liked the hints of interest between a few characters that seem to be setting up to be later explored.
With Your Tail, Yes!
Supernatural short stories with beautiful art. Should be a winning formula but some of the stories were ‘bleh’. I really liked both snake stories, especially the last one. They had some humour and in the case of the last one, some power in the relationship for the uke. The goat and carnivore story was my least favourite (which was so sad because the seme was such a good looking character). There was zero affection, pure sex and not even much in the way of the caring you would hope to see from the seme in a S&M dynamic. Felt entirely non consensual even if the airhead uke had enough masochist tendencies to be sexually satisfied, when all he asked for was to be held gently the seme found his request boring and ignored it. That’s an abuse of power dynamic, not a good S&M relationship. Sucked.
Naked Sweet Darling
Off to an interesting start, not completed so probably dropped.
Anti Alpha
If you love Omegaverse with strong alphas and omegas, hot uncensored scenes, and intense and possessive pairings, then don’t go past this story. High school students Sena and Kamishiro are rivals for top alpha at their all alpha school. Only when one finds out the other is omega he sets to make the rival he always respected into the lover he can’t do without. Includes a spin off, sexy age gap Omegaverse that is is too good to skip.
Sugar to Mustard
Completed at 5.2 despite marking. An excellent S&M story written just the way I like it. This mangaka understands that a good, dominant S treasures his submissive M and will reward and praise them for pushing their boundaries and giving themselves in trust to a good S. This pair were such a good match. Office worker Masachika (M) has some trust issues and has been having trouble finding a S he didn’t destroy. When the matchmaking Master paired him with the younger university student, Seiji (S) he was horrified until Master pointed out that Seiji was a former M and Masachika could train him to be his perfect gentle S. But it turns out that Masachika didn’t understand himself as well as he thought. It a good thing that the younger Seiji was happy to not be a gentle S all the time after all. Especially when his new M really liked to stir him up,
Futari No Musuko Ni Nerawarete Imasu
This is one raunchy romp of a story! With a slightly taboo feel with a father figure and his 2 sons, don’t let that hold you back coz they are no blood relation and the twins did all the hunting of their uke prey. Keiichi stepped in to raise his 10yo twin nephews (by marriage) when his sister (their step mom) died. He did everything to give them a loving and stable family and home, and on their 20th birthday was prepared to continue spoiling them silly. But what Ren and Takumi wanted this year was Keiichi as their lover. It’s time for the twins to make their move and they will do what it takes to make Keiichi see them as his, forever.
