Hajimari Wa Naka Kara
Noriyuki who wants to try urethra play gets found out by his kouhai, Ito, who is an expert on the subject. Or so it would seem. Noriyuki is plenty cute and kind and diligent, but I love Ito here the most. He is so nice, and teases just the right amount, is helpful and knows what he wants. He's not the slightest bit confused about his feelings, and I'm here for it. I also think Noriyuki is honestly so brave. Glad it worked out for him. Thought the story was taking a dramatic turn, but it got resolved real quick. Maybe would have enjoyed a bit of drama, tbh. It was still very good, though. And scorching hot. 5
Ore no Sasara
Ahhh! It's a doujinshi for something! No wonder I felt a lack of context! Anyway, it was incredibly hot, but I couldn't get into it because it felt like it would take a sharp turn South and turn ugly fast (it never did). May need to reread some time again with both facts in mind
Sensei Shokushin Shite Kudasai
A blue collar worker who wants to explore various things about the prostate and anal sex and a doctor whom he ends up becoming sex friends with. It's just, very, very good. The sex is phenomenal, some of the best I have seen. The plot was good and unproblematic and the characters were competent, self-respecting and quite likable. 5
24 Jikan Ochi nai Kiss
Ryo fucks his frustrating yet strangely endearing supervisor one drunken night, and it becomes a thing. Little consent was involved at first. But Tokura warms up to him, in more ways than one. Hmm... so much to unpack here. First and foremost, this is one of the few yaois that make you feel like you're living the story, meticulously drawing the readers into the details of the plot, the backgrounds and back stories. Second, consent is important, guys, come the fuck on. Third, love the way their relationship evolved, loved their dynamics, very very hot juxtapositions of, er, positions. Hot sex scenes, overall. And I'm glad Tokura grew so much as a person, over the years. I would not have liked him then. One thing I did not like was how Shouno was determined to hate Tokura. You have to be reasonable, man. Still, enjoyed it a lot. The uke being so well respected by his staff (not counting Shouno) and the way the mangaka kept introducing twists with the makeup definitely gave this an endge over other office romance yaois. But it should have been a little longer. The wrap up was great, but I still need filler fluff episodes. 5
