ok so im having a hard time to rate this bc im torn in giving it either 4 or 5 stars, i think plot wise it was like a 4.5/4.8 bc i really like arranged marriage plots but there were just some parts that felt a bit dramatic to me since all of this was happening while theyre still 16 and 18 year olds so i just find some scenarios a bit weird and over the top for me, also there were quite a lot of crying involved which just irked me but ig some parts were adorable <3 tbh the development of sachi's feelings were quite fast for me and i didnt really feel the connection at first but as i read they become more cute and fluffy a lot of parts felt so cringey to me which actually shocked me bc i used to love these types of mangas but after reading a bunch of other genres i just felt that my palate changed i like MLs like kouichi even though at first he might sound like a jerk bc he looks like he doesn't care abt sachi but thats bc of his circumstances and he was forced to grow up like that by his grandpa which is just sad :( i felt like there could've been more to the reconciliation of him and his grandpa bc i felt like their conversation was short and i wanted them to build their relationship more but i mean im glad that the granda finally recognized his mistakes and apologized to kouichi plus he gave them a stunning wedding ceremony i actually enjoyed reading this, i wasnt really bored and i liked their dynamic <3 i really loved the timeline type of ending pls i felt emotional it was so so cute ☹️ i just love when authors those types of endings, i think it was perfect as for sachi, i felt like she was a typical MC but im glad that she wasnt as weak and dumb as the others, shes actually very capable and smart so i really liked that abt her she was also very straightforward at times, and she always initiates communication when she feels like something's up :> all the characters are likable but ngl i still feel weird abt mizuho, im confused abt her feelings ?? she always blushes around kouichi but the author didnt explicitly say if she had feelings for him ?? i wished her and the class pres got together though, theyre quite a chaotic duo ❣ the plot was fluffy but it still had some drama and conflicts in it which i liked, i love how kouichi opened up to sachi and became more clingy to her when he finally confessed his feelings now that i've written my comment i would say that i guess i want to rate this 5 stars just bc its hard to find these types of healthy and fluffy romance with arranged marriage as its main plot :> this was a good and fluffy read + the art looks absolutely adorable

i must say that was very confusing, i think the plot was too complex for it to be just a oneshot but it was kinda cute so :D
Gokudou Darling
this was your typical yakuza plot but the pairing was quite new to me, so abt the plot i mean it was kinda plain and overused (?) the sexual harassments, blackmail, and kidnap elements are there so D: i think the story had more potential but it felt rushed and incomplete bc they still haven't outright confessed their feelings to one another :< but their dynamic was kind of cute and adorable <3 i love how clingy yoshimune is in the extra ch i really love tatsumi's strong personality !! tatsumi is precious ok i will protect him at all costs overall the plot had potential and i kind of liked it but still quite plain :> the art looks amazing though so good read :D
Kimi ga Kirai na Koi no Hanashi
this made me want to read shoujo again >< it was pretty cliche but gawd i love it <3 i really like pairings like this idk im like soft delinquents hihi i love chihiro, shes not your typical shy, dumb, and weak MC. shes pretty straightforward but not aggressive, idk i didnt really find her attitude annoying not like other shoujos i've read :> i love how shes smart and she never gave up on kisaragi shes an understanding person i really love her personality as for kisaragi hes quite mean but not to the point that it pisses me off, like i get why he was doing those things and it was "for the sake" of chihiro bc he didnt want her to be involved with him :> i found him quite cute esp at the last panel of ch 8, theyre so freaking adorable i squealed >< overall the plot was cliche yet still very interesting and not cringey (i tend to cringe a lot at shoujo mangas but i never cringed while reading this ❣) it had a pretty light storyline and all in all fluffy in my opinion <3 im sad though bc i found it quite short :( i wished they showed more of their relationship and they never really introduced each other to their families but still i liked it this was an enjoyable read <3 i also feel inlove with the art style !! both kisaragi and chihiro look so pretty (usually i dont like how the FC looks like but i really found chihiro pretty ) great read
Oita ga Sugiru wa Koneko-chan
ok i think this is a guilty pleasure of mine i loved it okay i love their dynamic :( theyre so freaking cute and funny together i just love how domestic and adorable they are ☹️ the cousin thing doesnt bother me as well as the age gap idk ig im just used to reading stuff with those elements involved :> overall i think the plot has a deep and emotional story but it was executed in a very light and comedic way !! you can feel the angst at times but it is mostly filled with humor :D i really liked kyuuta's personality, hes very precious and adorable !! hes the mature one out of the two if im being honest most of the comments find etsurou a pedo/disgusting but tbh i wasnt really bothered by him ?? idk why but thats the reason i called this my guilty pleasure bc i get where theyre coming from but i really had a great time reading this and etsurou's a really funny and sweet guy imo <3 i felt emotional on the part where etsurou was panicking abt kyuuta bc that must've really triggered his trauma and stuff :< im glad they finally adopted otome the cute cat, he/she is such an adorable addition to their family !! anyway so yea i really liked this !! the extras were so cute, the art looks amazing im obsessed with this author's art style and i also missed okachi machi and the gang, im glad i got to see a glimpse of them again a great and fun read ❣
Boku no Xie Mama

Meguriau yo, Baby
omg i missed reading these types of bl mangas, not much drama and just fluff i was reluctant to read it bc the ratings were so low but bc of the comments i changed my mind and im glad i did bc it was adorable its a great story to read to past time and i just find them cute <3 there wasnt much drama which i liked bc i needed a break from frustrating bl plots ^^ overall it was good but it had some plot holes, their family situation was so confusing ?? it was portrayed in a comedic way which was funny and wholesome but if you really think abt it, his parents are acting kind of weird i cant explain it but i just feel some weird aura around them but overall they were quite amusing and adorable ❣ as for the couple, theyre absolutely adorable :> im so happy that kakei is such a respectful ML he didnt do anything to kuuya while he was drunk and he really waited until he graduated for them to do it !! i love him i wish all the MLs are like that ㅠㅠ i love kuuya's straightforward attitude, hes adorable, mature, and independent !! he wasnt your weak type of MC which im glad abt, i really liked his personality !! yea overall i liked this ~ the pacing was okay and the plot was quite common but i still liked it i also liked the art, it looks pretty a good read !!
Don't Cry Baby
this was ok !! im sad i didnt get to see the couple from the prequel though i was hoping they could reconcile and be friends but ig im happy that takarai finally found his own happiness :> tbh i wasnt really that mad at him at the prequel idk why, ik that what he did was bad and that he was being a jerk but i wasnt really frustrated or mad at him bc kakei knew what he was doing and he still held on to him so both of them are at fault :) i could kind of understand now why he was doing that but i still wouldn't excuse what he did to kakei !! anyway abt the plot i mean it was your common heartbroken trope but i found their dynamic unique and adorable i rated it 4 stars bc there were some parts that got me confused idk why but i just couldn't process what was happening or what they were talking abt helpjsjdjjd also we never really got to see them exhange "ilys" to each other so D: i wanted to see more of them as a couple !! overall i think the plot was better than the prequel ?? i feel like it had more depth and drama in it !! the prequel was more on a light and comedic side (which i also like) but i do appreciate some bits of drama and conflicts in a plot so i liked this more <3 but i just felt like the couple's feelings wasnt really showed properly ?? like they just got together instantly, i wanted to see the both of them express their feelings but the last chapter was cute i liked that ending so i also like this author's art style i find it really cute ❣ good read !!
Sultan’s Love
i wanted more of them naurrrr :( this didnt feel short at all ?? it doesn't feel like i've only read 16 chapters, for that short of a story it was pretty good !! i liked the idea of the plot but there were some parts where im kind of uncomfy ig (?) also there were some plot holes but overall it was still pretty interesting to read <3 ngl kainer was kind of a jerk at first, well not really but he was acting so possessive and controlling at the first part (just slightly) but he was sweet and caring throughout the whole story so i liked him as for saye, shes so precious tbh i like stronger FLs but i understand why saye is like that, shes been through a lot and she was depressed the whole time so im glad that she was saved by kainer ^^ i did find her amazing when she saved kainer, that takes some guts to do so applauds for that overall i liked it :> there were some parts that i was kind of like meh :0 but i still liked the plot, i thought that the ending was so cute but i wish they let us see the babies D: also i wanted to see them get married hehe but that ending was still adorable so <3 im glad they both found happiness !! ngl i just realized that they never really expressed their feelings for each other (like saying ily) :O but ig their showed it using their bodies (° ͜ʖ ͡ -) lastly i wanna say, the art is so so pretty like omfg im inlove and obsessed with it !!! they both look so gorgeous i just love it when they smile !! this was a good read ❣
