Ouji No Hakoniwa
The first story definitely rubbed me the wrong way but I liked the 2nd and the extra at the end. Not to mention, something about Ogawa Chise's art makes me want to keep looking at it. Her characters have a strange allure about them -it's like exaggerated sexiness?

Lover's Position
"Jerk seme" is really the right word for these guys.
Uso To Kiss
Chizumi & Fujiomi
It was fine I guess? The main couple was cute, though I'm not too sure how they managed to stay together so long. They just didn't seem like the sort of couple that spoke to each other or did anything sexual so I'm curious how they managed to grow up together. I just wish the antagonists had more substance to them. They were so pointlessly evil it was just boring. I wish the author used people less as plot points and spent the space exploring their relationship.

It was a cute and sweet story, even though the eyes were waaaaaaay too big. Also, this can't be compared to Tokyo Crazy Paradise, imo. I guess in the way you can compare a Toyota to a Bugatti lol? Same concept but wildly different outcomes lol
Kyou, Koi Wo Hajimemasu
I'll begrudgingly give this a 3/10 because it didn't make me want to stab my eyes out in anger. Buuuuut, can't say I liked it all that much. The MC was an asshole; yeah he wasn't as bad in the end, but he was so awful in the beginning her falling for him never actually made sense. And the girl was a typical heroine- honestly, nothing about her personality had me particularly wanting to cheer for her or support her, despite her being the MC. And, of course, there's the problem with this series lasting more than 20 chapters; the last 70 chapters or so (basically after they started dating) showed so little plot development I felt like I was wasting away reading it. If it weren't for my stubborn desire to finish the mangas I start, I would have dropped this SO long ago! Sadly though, it's still this author's best work. Only 1 rape scene, after all. Wait, scratch that- 2. One hand is still enough to count them all so still a record.
Koi Wo Suru No Ga Shigoto Desu
It was a fairly interesting story, but somehow managed to be so saturated with sex that I got a bit irritated after a while. It's just like, this is the 10th sex scene in 6 chapters, any chance we could use the extra pages to develop the plot or characters a little more? The ending fell so flat, and the major confrontation just wasn't there. Wish the author had spent more time on those, rather than showing us the main couple sleeping together or Saiga and his troupe of sexmates.
