How do people think the second story is pedo... he's in 3rd year uni (~20-21 if he entered uni right after hs). It also isn't incest nor does it feel like incest at all??? Is it really just an asian thing to call close older people as sis/bro??? *insert confused lady meme* Anyway, ch1-5 is the main story, ch6 is an extra unrelated one shot. The main story is fine, though there's barely any romantic development (they hit it off in the first chap, but the confession is only on the penultimate chapter). Ch6 is a one shot and is obviously too short because of it. 5/10
Kedamono Bitch
Now I want gramps' story Ch 1-5 + 6.5 is the main story, ch 6 is an unrelated one shot. The main story is... fine? Romantic development is kinda inexistent although I did like how the plot progressed chapter by chapter (especially with how this story isn't really meant to be a series). Tbh, I think ch 6 has its lore better developed (about hunters, beasts and monsters, etc) compared to the main story... although it has that disease called "one shot syndrome" where the story has barely any development. The confession for ch 6 just used aphrodisiac as a plot device to happen, otherwise you don't really feel anything from the uke. He just feels like an NPC object of desire by the MC. And the brother came out of nowhere, lol, he added nothing to the story. Is this an extra story of another manga?

The stories each present to us a different type of anxiety, prejudice, and all kinds of experiences a pregnancy would get, regardless of being female or male. The only chapter I didn't really like is ch 5 where the husband is very insensitive and borderline abusive (emotionally) to his wife. They never got a closure about his behavior to his wife when she was pregnant, and his behavior now that he's the one who's pregnant.

Ch1: about a girl who is a reincarnation of a ghost's former lover who she supposedly committed a failed double suicide with Ch2: a story of a vampire who turned white because he lost his fangs Ch3: a girl who committed suicide got turned into a vampire. A story of her and the one who witnessed her suicide Ch4: a girl who's sold off to marry an old man tries to escape her fate by kidnapping a noble in hopes to make him fall in love with her and save her fate . . . Commentary (so I kinda remember because I have bad memory lol): I love ch1's ending. I would've hated it if it ended like other shoujo mangas with the girl falling in love with the ghost even though she already has someone she loves. (Like seriously, the ghost dude is creepy and too obsessed with the girl even though she's not the same person as her reincarnation). 7/10 Chapter 2 is... Okay, i guess? It didn't stick to me :/ 4/10 I like the disparity between the last two chapters. A girl got "kidnapped" and the other one is the kidnapper. One turned into a vampire in the beginning, the other at the end. Yet both are the same with regards to their complex and hate for their own life leading them to their vampirism. Both have realized their shortcomings, especially compared to the male lead. And both refused to let their loved one fall victim to the same fate. 9/10 (would be lower as individual stories, tbh, but I really liked them as a pair of stories)
Hebi no Seikatsu
2 stories about an alpha/alpha couple and an omega that comes between them... unintentionally.
