Mitsu to Adabana

Complete | Naoe sai | 2019 released

I'm intrigued. It could go either way. Poor baby uke. And it seems like this won't be a rape-to-love situation, which is great. But I could be wrong, so I guess we'll see... I hate rape-to-love, so hopefully not. I just figure the other guy is who he gets with. I'm definitely invested, and the art is lovely. I could have done without the child rape joke that the scanlators added not once, but twice. I don't know why they thought that was funny. But I'm glad someone is scanlating this, so hey.

Honeybee and Lemon Balm

Ongoing | JIL Hashikura | 2000 released

Eh... I dunno. It's only the first chapter so far, so maybe it'll be good enough for me to ignore the stuff I don't like. Immediately I'd rather the florist get with the cop. I don't hate the yakuza guy, but I do hate the mistaken gender trope, and I LOATHE "it's okay if it's you." There's no chemistry there yet, but I guess we'll see. Three stars for now, but hoping it gets better because it has potential.
