I think this might be the first decent shota I've read?? :'D It's not sexual right off the bat, like these genre comics usually are, it's more like a kid having a crush and the both parties slowly growing more and more into those feelings. Maybe or maybe not ending up as a couple years later, who knows. ^^ Pacing is nice, art gorgeous and the writing is very, very well done. Definitely worth a read since it's so funny and wholesome.

Life Ain’t so Bad

Critique ahead, beware. They are just purely comedic. In every way. And that is what you need to keep in mind when reading this; it's NOT serious, it's NOT that deep and does not wanna be, so do yourself a favour and read it as a comedy-smut comic instead of trying to criticize their behavior or reasoning. It's your own fault if you take this serious past the first chapter, really. XD The writing is decent but simple, since it IS just porn with plot (aka smut). This, again, makes it clear this should not be taken serious or have anyone critique character behavior, smut is focused on sex, not realism. Anything goes to achieve the bonking. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ This really is a more simple comic which really should be read by people who can manage to just laugh something off/ignore something the same as the character it is happening to, not getting emotionally invested in literally anything even if the mood isn't for it (however the fuck you manage to do THAT with an absurd comedy-porn setting like this, that's magic really, so please refrain from casting your spells!). Take it as a light read for comedy and sex scenes and you're good. The characters are more comedy-oriented than realistic but I do believe their behavior is plenty realistic in certain ways if you consider people like each of them DO infact exist irl, althought not so commonly. But it might not be everybody's cup of tea that there are actual people who, after being sex workers, are capable of shrugging of creepy stalker rapist incidents. Again, this is possible irl but this comic made no big deal out of it as it would simply NOT fit the entire character that was established and the general mood. (Author could have left it out tbh, maybe just making the creep undress him forcefully and it could have resulted in the exact same situation.) The art is decent but it's nothing special. The funny expressions are great tho! There is effort put into the sexual scenes but not in a high level, mid-tier I'd say. The artstyle is not unpleasant but not beautiful either, so if the comedy or romance cannot keep you, the art probably will not either. It's a taste-based thing. I would recommend this to anyone that wants a laugh and some smut alongside it, but stay away if you have the bad habit of getting too personally invested in even the most blatantly comedy-based stories that have a non-chalant character actually be non-chalant about anything that happens to him because he's used to it. It's not a good thing to do anyway but I know for a fact someone will get offended on behalf of this character even if the author made clear this comic is basically like a slapstick Tom & Jerry/Bugs Bunny cartoon moment. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ Anyway, recommended for more mature readers I suppose. It depends on your tastes tho!

Sono Futari, Kaishaku Chigai desu!

Complete | MIYAMA Kaoruko | 2022 released

The beginning is really good but halfway through it feels like the writing lost some dedication. The ending also felt WAY too sudden, so I'm somewhat convinced the author just didn't 'feel this one' and decided to keep going until it had a somewhat conclusion-like moment to it. It feels unfinished but is a good read if you read it as what it is: a comedy piece, not a realistic story that pretends to have realistic behavior and situations. I love this author for their use of tropes, such as misunderstandings, and using them only as they should be used; momentarily instead of making it a whole fucking arc nobody cares for or has ever asked for. Feels like this author is just as annoyed by those situations dragging out as most of the readers. XD It's a nice simply read if you are looking for some absolutely comdeic anime type stuff with BL romance in it. But it is definitely unfinished or was discontinued basically and had just a quick makeshift ending created to slap the 'completed' label on it. Not a bad read tho. It's funny and cute. Would 100% work much better as an audio drama or better yet an anime tho.

Ashita kimi no mono ni shite

Complete | MIYAMA Kaoruko | 2021 released

I'll make this short: This is the cutest fucking shit I have seen in ages and this would make an amazing comedy romance anime. XD The relationship is sweet, adorable, fluffy but also steamy later on. They are both the greenest green flags to have ever greened and while their comedic behavior is indeed exeggarated it's also fairly realistic if we think about it. I just really love it. A good, simple/quick story. No needless drama. Well written and well thought through. Definitely recommended!
