Family Simulation!!

Complete | Matsuyoshi Aco | 2000 released

Pretty standard stuff, cute and wholesome without (much) gay panic.

Kazoku Ni Narouyo

Complete | KURAHASHI Tomo | 2016 released

REREAD I KNOW I read this before.

Ikumen After

Complete | KODAKA Kazuma | 2010 released

Huh! That ended up being unexpectedly wholesome. <3 I'm glad the drama and story development focused on permanent changes to their lives, like moving in together (and not getting a chance to move out) and Kentaro's genuine passion for acting. It was really nice that his agency and even the guy who was an acting rival (for like, one chapter, lol) were all on his side. And on Asakura's side, his coworkers were equally accepting and supportive. Again, that was really, really nice! I think the only reason it's only 4/5 is just the lack of JNSQ that would tip it over the edge. But all in all, very satisfying.

Tabun Korekara Ai no Hibi

Ongoing | Ayu ikemori | 2019 released

This. Was. Amazing. EASILY 5 . Romance has a happy resolution, while the career stuff is open ended but hopeful. I think it's better than an ending where they've written their hit manga together and have no problems anymore. This way there's still something for the characters to work towards *and* you know they're going to, even though it hard. Inspiring, to be honest.

Ookami Papa wa Hitsuji Tsura shite Yatte kuru

Complete | KURUSU Haiji | 2016 released

Very cute but wierdly paced drama. Hagi's friend obviously has some hangups about being gay that come up for very short, meaningless drama. Besides that, it's fine! The random one shot was kinda lame.

Honey! Honey! Marry Me!

Complete | ONO Anbi | 2000 released

Nonsensical comedy for the main story, wasn't very good. Side story one shot was fine (comedy about overly sensitive nipples with an established couple in college).

Family, Now and Forever

Ongoing | Hakase | 2019 released

Exceedingly beautiful art and fluffy slice of life scenes. A little thin on story, but excellent snapshots of their family life.
