Ichika, bachika

Complete | Shikke | 2019 released

Definitely read already but didn't rate. I'm guessing from the tropes and author it's in the 3-4 range. Re-read, yeah I was about right. It's a little more forceful than Pink Jam, and I kinda wish the background couple got their own chapter, but it's pretty good.

Eyes speak more love than the mouth

Complete | Hagi | 2000 released

Very cute but too short! Wanted to see more of them actually being together, but thr time skip to college is a nice coda.

Awkward shounen ai, cute but too short to really feel like it's properly explored. I ly read because its by Ougi Yuzuha.

Himitsu no Love Sensation

Complete | Matsuyoshi Aco | 2000 released

Meh, so much comedy without much emotional heart. Not none, but not a lot. The characters are so willfully ignorant and then they just conveniently goes with the flow.

He Is Beautiful

Complete | Tenzen Momoko | 2000 released

It's cute and sweet and doesn't have any gay panic! I just wish the art wasn't so stiff. It's looser and fits better when scenes have a comedic tone, but the serious and romantic scenes all pretty much feel the same, and have an awkward posed look.

Ki ga Au to Iu Koto wa

Complete | ASOU Kai | 2015 released

I actually liked the ghost story! The fact that the guy who lent his body to the dead lover was so pissednl off when he realized they'd had sex using him, that was the correct response. Obviously it all worked out in the end, but it was handled decently. As for the other story, I wish Shiraishi had a littttttle more awareness. There's a limit to going with the flow, and if he's fine having sex with his friend multiple times, dude, I think you might have Feelings. But that works out in the end too. All in all, these are sweet! I'll read the spinoff of the second story too.

Kimi to Ishin Denshin!

Complete | YAMANO Deko | 2017 released

Odd but cute and wholesome. Smutty last chapter that wraps things up. The story has an unusual dynamic, but it works!

Koi wa Nanairo Shichihenge!?

Complete | YAMANO Deko | 2016 released

This was really super cute! The attention to cosplaying never got unbalanced with the cute little romance happening, and it was a lot more casual and aware if itself. Very above average characterization imo.

Unmei-teki Lovemeter

Also reencounter! A mostly cute and fluffy high school romance, with a supernatural twist. Some of the Fanboy elements were almost too much though. Wonder if the cousin with the same ability has a spinoff?
