Hadaka yori mo Oku Fukaku
Hagiwara has a drunken one night stand with Yuto, and almost immediately forms an attachment to Yuto, and almost asks him to stay a bit longer, only to realise later in the day, that Yuto is a student at the university where he works! I really, really liked it. The progression, how hooked he was on him, the passion. It was really good and stands out from your run of the mill, standard yaoi
Dokusen Shitemo Iidesuka
Yu, the unsociable dick, and Ryo, the cheerful, athletic, popular dick have been friends for all their lives. Ryo has always been working to make sure Yu only has eyes for him, which is maybe why Yu ends up so twisted. Going through middle school, Ryo realises how strange his obsession is and he tries to pull slightly back during high school, only to have Yu get a girlfriend, just to spite him. Ryo realises he's gay and that he shot himself in the foot. They both eventually confess their feelings and continue to be dicks happily ever after. Wow. They're such dicks. While it's easier to blame it on baby Ryo and say his dickish actions have warped Yu forever, I think, Yu is inherently a dick in his own right. I still enjoyed it! The sex was fun. I just wish they weren't such colossal dicks. 4.45
Nanji Ware wo Kouryaku Seyo
My, my! What an excellent collection! 1: Masashi is a salaryman who secretly loves ero games. One night, he receives a visit from Squartha, a prince from an alternate dimension, who must have sex with a man to fulfill the task set to him by the Goddess, in order to save his country. Could the situation be anymore ero game like?! For what it is, this story sure depicted an incredibly healthy relationship. Not only is Masashi such a capable man, he is also so empathetic, and loving. The way he took responsibility, damn! I also really liked that they were surrounded by supportive and tolerant people. It's so great that precious, sincere Su is getting loved like he deserves. I'm really glad the goddess sent him there. She was probably meddling to save him from his disgustingly cruel father. 5 4: Uke can't help but be turned on and intrigued by the man (Kentarou) who is always eyeing him like he wants to swallow him up on the train. Yet, all attempts to entice him fail because the virgin seme is too inexperienced to be confident enough to take bait. That, is, until the uke runs into a disgusting molester and Kentarou snaps! Damn. I love seemingly herbivorous semes who snap like this. It was incredibly hot! Especially that train scene, whew! Yet he was so uncertain at times, too! It was so endearing. Enjoyed the outgoing uke who had no qualms about going after what he wanted. 4.7 5: Maekawa is elated to be working for Okuyama, a high specs, extremely young company president, who maintains a very positive, healthy and inclusive workplace. After being rescued from an absolutely terrible job, Maekawa finds himself switching between hero worship and intense attraction for his president. And when he finds out pres is gay, well! This is genuinely so enjoyable, because we get to see Maekawa slowly gain confidence, pick up hobbies and finally make time for himself. Okuyama definitely saved his life. You really have to respect people like Okuyama who build their own safe space into an empire in such an intolerant society. Hats off! The sex scenes were hot, too. 4.9 Overall, I really enjoyed each plot, all the characters were lovely, and even the supporting characters were very well done, too. Managaka has a definite skill for cramming detailed storylines into a couple pages. 5!!!
Mahou Tsukai Countdown
1: Haru is a timid, nearly 30 year old virgin who is determined to pop his cherry before the big day (and hopefully avoid being a wizard). Not only that, it seems he's straight but can only get off by anal masturbation. Kei is the gentle soul who becomes involved with him when his sister blows Haru off for an arranged date. Kei arrives to deliver the message but ends up staying for more. Much more. It was okay. Kei is such a sweetheart. Uke was nice too, not counting that one hurtful incident. Overall, it was nice, and the progression was good. 4.5 6: Kazuki and Yuki have just moved in after dating for a while but Tetsu, Yuki's kid keeps interfering in there time alone. Tetsuhiro was honestly a bit of a brat and overall the story was bland and underwhelming. 4.3 Overall: 4.4
Muka Tsuku Douryou to Sefure ni Narimashita
1: Rival coworkers to kinda lovers? Nsruse is a slacker at work who loves to cruise for guys for one night stands. But one time, the person who turns up is his stick in the mud senpai, Kagami. Turns out, their bodies are crazy compatible. I honestly didn't especially like or hate it. They weren't wuite stable, even at the end of it, and I couldn't really get a feel for it. 4.2 2: Dude keeps borrowing AVs after work once a week, to watch in a net café, because he doesn't have privacy at home. One day, he grabs the wrong one by mistake. I guess he consented halfway through? It wasn't really my cuppa tea. 3.9 3: School nurse stalks and forces this kid to have sex. Gross and predatory as heck. 2 Also, the way all their dicks were drawn, was super weird... 3.4=3* Edit: 6: Definitely best of the bunch. About a virgin salaryman who is damn adorable, and the yummy seme who protects him from a molester on the train. Wish ot was longer. 4.7 Also, damn. No. 2 really stepped it up with that extra. Changing rating to 4.3 Overall 4
Kawaii Inu ha Yoku Nureru
Dude has a seemingly one-sided crush on his hot professor. It's so fucking lovely? Like. I love everything about it. From both of them being virgins, to the way they both seemed so into it and each other, to the excellent art. It's just very well done! 5!
Hetakuso Inma ja Dame Desu ka?
Was good, some bits not so much, but overall good. Could do with more detail? 4.5
Lyrical Muscle Encounter
Takumi is a buff dude who loves cute things. Itsuki is the cutie who comes up with a ridiculous scheme to hook Takumi, the man he has a massive crush on. Why is this rated so low?? Do not understand. Takumi is a bit standoffish at times, but he makes up for it. And Itsuki is so adorable and brave and really likable, and I'm just glad it worked out. It was a fun, light read. 4.6
The new employee
Seunghyun is just entering the work force at 29, after extended postgrad studies. He gets placed with a man who's supposed to be the most difficult section chief at the prestigious advertising company where he interns. But could there be more sides to him (Kim Jongchan) than meets the eye? I really, really enjoyed all of it. It's the competence kink, hard at work; I like to do a good job and know it. So glad the manhwaka has some similar ideas. I love that they highlight Seunghyun's good qualities which are directly related to his intelligence and work, instead of him being only "kind" or "sunny" or "full of heart" or something. He is perhaps, a lot of those things, but they were not the only things that defined him. And Jongchan. He's so dreamy. Imagine just stepping up and taking responsibility like that! My man's such a catch! And the sex, scorching, really. Between all the teasing and Seunghyun's delicious, delicious reactions, I loved all of it. 5 Ch 14 - first time
