Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #university(23)

I could happily read some more chapters on these sweet guys. The story was a little sad as Souhei had a lifelong struggle connecting with others. He was socially awkward and reserved and focused more on his world of insects and photography. For Souhei, light bondage was freeing and I liked how Lucas understood and respected his partners needs. Lucas was so beautiful and open with his feelings, I couldn’t imagine a better person to bring out the smiles in Souhei.

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.

An adorably sweet fluff piece about University students Bessho and Makita who both have a love of cute things. However, while Makita happily displays the items he finds cute, Bessho hides his collection away for fear of negative comments. It doesn’t take long for these 2 guys to develop feelings for each other, but they take their time enjoying the comfort of each other’s presence and the increasing intimacy of a relationship together. Also includes a short side story about their friends, there are no nasty surprises in these stories. Just some very likeable characters in love.

Akizuki-sensei has a temporary position as a University professor and juggles that with writing his thesis. Being so busy he sometimes appears a little clueless and vulnerable and for some reason, strange men try to accost him on the train. This most recent time that it happens, sensei is rescued by the beautiful pale haired, blue eyed Kitamura. As if he wasn’t flustered enough, Kitamura is one of his students and he seems to have taken a protective interest in his cute professor. This was a great story for the intensity and chemistry between Akizuki-sensei and Kitamura. I also loved the resolve and will that Akizuki had; at first he seemed to be the clueless damsel in distress type, but he was surprisingly strong willed and genuine. Lovely sexy scenes with beautiful art, this was a winner for me.

Good stories. I preferred the extra to the main story, it dealt with the guilt of hurting a friend when going for the one you love and I thought it was nicely managed. The main couple, I didn’t like either of them enough to enjoy. The uke’s devotion in the face of countless girlfriends was hard to relate to and the seme was a bit of a self centred dick. Still, it ended nicely.

I liked both couples. King and Prince were more intense, especially King in his driven pursuit to claim the one he loved, but the other story was a nice view on how complete opposites can be so right for each other.

Trigger Warning: Rape This story was different. Quiet and serious, Ryou reunites at University with Fujishiro, a guy he had hated since childhood. However, Fujishiro had always been fascinated with Ryou and the cheerful, popular guy forces himself on Ryou and blackmails him into dating. It’s undeniably a total dick move, but it works because Ryou has always seen through Fujishiro’s facade to the real guy beneath and when Fujishiro becomes even more authentic in their time dating, Ryou falls for him. Fujishiro is an odd dichotomy of aggressive manipulation and sweet vulnerability. Ryou has a soft side under his cold, antisocial veneer and both guys are a surprisingly good match.

This manga was a total gem! Exuberant and extroverted, Daiya is an university student who really wishes to have a girlfriend. He spends his days studying and playing around, often ending up to spend the night Ohashi's appartment after a long night out. Quiet and good looking, Ohashi is drawn to his expressive friend but is reluctant to share his feelings with the ladies man that is Daiya. Instead, while Daiya sleeps, Ohashi decides to try a more hands on approach. I loved this manga so much. The art was so good, both MCs had their distinctive personalities shine through, especially Daiya, who was a man whose every thought was shared on his face. I loved the taboo aspect of Ohashi’s secret nocturnal touches that was balanced by the tortured and longing expression that Daiya glimpsed. A definite favourite for me, I loved it.

Koisuru Sono Jijou wa (Fetish story) Does Akutagawa love his boyfriend Miike or is he simply obsessed with the nape of his neck? Saiaku no Jinsei (Delinquent story) 3rd year Kawashima senpai is a rough delinquent who's always had a shitty life. His scowling face, violent personality and reputation for fights have him and his actions under constant judgement from those around him. When he steps in to save 1st year Sayama from a bully, he strikes up a tentative friendship with the talented but ambitionless kouhai. Sayama’s easygoing personality and interest in Kawashima had him see the kind side and misjudgment that was imposed on senpai. From their awkward start, these boys both had a huge impact on each other's lives. The story is a little sad at times, but it’s also sweet how much their meeting changed their lives.

Very cute and lovey dovey! This pair of uni students are the hottest guys on campus. Androgynous Sakura has always had a cute face and for years he has been in love with the incredibly handsome Yukihira. Only thing is, he was too shy and awkward to approach him, so he reverted to being his stalker over the last couple of years. But when they finally bump into each other, Yukihira‘s teasing nature is a surprise. Does love at first sight hold up to reality?
