jama's manga / #Cute(85)

1st story: Hiro is a beautician who is haunted by his high school past especially concerning his classmate, Natsuo. By fate, they meet at Hiro's workplace. The two end up dating with Hiro's intention of breaking Natsuo's heart. Turns out Hiro falls in love with him and, after some drama, the two get together. 2nd story: Spin-off of Sabita Yoru Demo Koi wa Sasayaku, Ogeretsu Tanaka's amazing manga about partner abuse, and what happened to Ken Hayashida, the abuser, after his relationship was over. At times awkward and fumbling, other times adept and hot as hell, this story is a believable testament to vulnerability and the healing power of love.

I love this story! It's one of those Harada stories that have a SUPER good ending. Momo's story is messed up but I'm glad he ended up with someone who will really take care of him :)

Business workers Toujou and Akisaka are good friends but Akisaka harbors feelings for Toujou. Toujou does a lot of skinship towards Akisaka where the latter believes he is interpreting the way he wants to. After a passionate kiss on a stairway, Toujou kisses Akisaka AGAIN. The two finally get together and their relationship is SUPER cute :)

Ikuo gets reunited with a kohai from high school baseball team, Yousuke Itou. Itou always harbored a one-sided love and the two meet due to Itou tutoring Ikuo's sister, Nana. Yousuke confesses but Ikuo tries to brush it off by offering his sister. Eventually, Ikuo falls in love with Yousuke but has trouble expressing it so he just gets jealous. After a few dates, Yousuke decides to break up and states that Ikuo was just returning a favor. Ikuo, after a while, gets convinced by Nana that he truly loves Yousuke and waits for him at his apartment. The two decide to go out again and nothing but love from here on out <3

Loved how fragile yet developed the characters are! I enjoyed the story between Yuuki and Noboru. Yuuki is a rich high school boy who falls in love with the poor but proud Noboru. They go through many ups and downs but eventually Noboru falls in love, too. The twin little brothers are so adorable!

Super adorable story about Chitose, a guy who enjoys attracting straight men and then turning them down when they ask him out. He gets caught by Narita who genuinely likes him so the two make a bet: If Narita can get Chitose to sleep with him in a month, he wins. Chitose tries to deny his feelings but they eventually get together (super cute with the bunnies, too). The next story is about Ren-san who is secretly an M but enjoys tormenting his boyfriend Eita. The last story is about the best friends Kouchan and (i forgot name) who are stupid when it comes to love. SUPER ADORABLE!!!

Super cute story about high school romance, idiot friends, and a boy with a really pretty face :D
