Ore no Aoharu wa Watasanai

Complete | KATOU Susu | 2000 released

Meh, cute with good art but once again the side characters are more interesting. Wish there was a Wotakoi-like spinoff for Kaneda and Taira.

Kare ga Megane o Hazusutoki

Complete | ASOU Mitsuaki | 2016 released

A little hard to follow at first, but it was cute.

Signal

Complete | hidaka shoko | 2000 released

I liked it but not as much as others by Hidaka Shoko. Just seemed sorta lowkey all around.

19 Days

Ongoing | Old Xian | 2014 released

140, 164, 208 Zhang Xi & Jian Ch 409 Xiao Mo and He Tian!!!

Pink Heart Jam

Complete | Shikke | 2019 released

This was a special one, as the rating shows. I've never read a manga that treats everything, from sex to sexuality to the complexity and confusion of developing romantic feelings for someone so naturally. Even the 'erotic spa' angle was more or less okay because it didn't add some needless angst or drama on top of the story. Also reminded me a little of Given with the musical theme and vague similarities between the main couples of both manga.

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.

Nirameba Koi

Complete | yukue moegi | 2013 released

The gap moe fav!!

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.

Koi ni mo Naranai.

Complete | Hagi | 2016 released

Again with the cute shounen ai. So sweet and fluffy! I love the way some of the thought bubbles and water were drawn.

Ehhhh I did not like the assault backstory. Even less the joking manner of the artist towards drawing that part. Ick. It feels wrong for it to be this cute and fluffy while also being so shallow about something so traumatizing.
