Yane's manga / #Romance(730)

My rating: 6/10 Sadly it's only a oneshot, I want more. I like the FL, she isn't some childlike weak girl but actually strong and she has a temper. But the teacher abuses his position and popularity to get close to her, his student!!! That's pretty creepy actually, even if he's good looking. SCHOOL LIFE, TEACHER, MODEL A high school student (FL) is an ex model who tries to stay unnoticed bc she was bullied in the past. But her teacher (ML) catches a glimpse of her charm and gets interested in her.

My rating: 7/10 I really like that she doesn't change her attitude like the normal villainesses do, she doesn't turn into someone else. It's pretty suspenseful with her having to change her fate in 1 day. What bugs me is the senseless obsession of the men with the og heroine, this feels a bit cheap. It's a good read tho, entertaining and with an interesting at the end. REINCARNATION, VILLAINESS A duke's daughter (FL) who's engaged with the crown prince realises that she's the villainess of a game 1 day before the og heroine who also reincarnated will defeat her. Now, she has to do everything to prevent that.

My rating: 9/10 It's quite enjoyable, really funny too. It's written from the ML's pov. He's highly intelligent and devoid of emotions at first. The FL with her pure and energetic nature changes him, it's quite adorable n develops into an (harmless) obsession on his part. What makes this so wholesome is also the "found family" concept. They gradually gather friends around them who support each other. And I really like that here the seemingly senseless obsession of the men with og heroine in the og story is actually explained (and it's a rather unique reason). REINCARNATION, COMEDY Crown prince Cecil (ML) is so brilliant that everything in life is easy to the point of boring him. But during their first meeting, his fiancée Bertia (FL) suddenly proclaims that she's the villainess of an otome game and that she will do everything to fulfill her role and help him find happiness with the og heroine. Quite interesting ...

My rating: 10/10 This a good example for "letting the art speak". I really love the creepy atmosphere where u don't know what will happen, his violent side lurking in the shadows. It's truly an amazing story with good suspense and a well-portrayed yandere. It's about liking someone in spite of their murder fantasies, the fear of them doing something wrong. I like the FL, she's optimistic and kind but not too much bc she still doesn't let her brother go even though she knows about his tendencies. YANDERE ML, REINCARNATION A middle school student (FL) realises that she reincarnated as the younger stepsister of the evil murderer (ML) of a manga who sets up a death game for his class and murders her beforehand. To avoid that fate, she tries to fight the boredom that made him do it, so she prepares surprises for him. But she only has 1 year left ... SPOILER: The ML falls for her, he becomes obsessed and wants to lock her away. He also plays with the though of killing her, he says that she should be his first victim. But at the same time it doesn't feel good for him. He's been manipulative since he was young, he even accused his mother of child abuse to get rid of her. He now secretly tears insects apart. He realises his love for the FL after she gets hit by a truck before his eyes while trying to save a cat.

My rating: 7/10 It's interesting, a magical detective story with all the investigations. U slowly realise the connections, it's a good build-up. The characters are likeable too, the FL's courageous. But there's only a hint of romance and the ending's rushed. CROSSDRESSING, MAGICIAN Eco (FL) can use magic even though only men are supposed to have that ability. After her powers are exposed by accident, she's scorned. Then, her cousin suggests for her to work at the Magic Bureau in his stead. Eco decides to dress as a man and work as a mage. However she unexpectedly becomes "buddies" with another magician (ML) bc they enhance each other's magic powers

My rating: 3/10 It's entertaining but not my cup of tea. Although these 3 short stories address some serious topics, they're rather light-hearted bc the FL's are always pretty immature yet determined. REINCARNATION, MODERN DAY 1) A high school girl gets transported into the past and gets told that she's the reincarnation of a warrior. Now she has to help a young man defeat the enemy 2) 2 high school students are in love in spite of their parents's disapproval 3) A high school girl meets a Chinese police officer and helps him during an investigation

My rating: 7/10 It's good. They are pretty cute together, but the blackmail kinda damages that image. The uke's smart and a bit insensitive (and horny!), the seme's emotional and popular. Nothing too special but enjoyable. SCHOOL LIFE, HONOUR STUDENT A honour student who always takes first place in his class gets into anal masturbation after accidentally seeing a gay porn pic. But when he does it at school, the 2nd in class (seme) catches him. He ends up helping him in exchange for the uke helping him study. SPOILER: The seme's been in love with the uke for a long time. He wants to beat him to get his attention.

My rating: 7/10 It's a cute read, domestic and with two lovers who complement each other. The uke's popular and genuinely nice to everyone while the seme is more grumpy and able to turn people down. The girl who's into the uke's really creepy. But the ending's too rushed. COWORKERS, FRIENDS TO LOVERS The uke is troubled by the frequent advances made by a woman at the office and lies that he's in a relationship with his friend and colleague (seme). But in exchange for his help, the seme asks to hold him.

My rating: 4,5/10 It's alright, the rating would be a bit higher if the 2nd story didn't give me the creeps. The main story's entertaining tho, nothing special but with a good dynamic. The uke's extroverted and concerned about his looks, the seme's antisocial and a bit sadistic. I'm not a fan of the SA tho. OFFICE ROMANCE, LOOKS A popular office worker (uke) secretary spends a lot of time on his looks. He's kinda bothered by his effortlessly handsome and rude coworker (seme). But then the seme finds out his secret and the uke loses his composure. ONESHOT, HISTORICAL A young boy (uke) is offered to a deity (seme) and has to sleep with him every night. All his predecessors died of this, but after many years the uke's still fine. And he's not afraid, he just deeply loves the seme.

My rating: 7,5/10 I've read stories with a similar plot but this one is definitely one of the better sort, it's really adorable. This has the "opposites attract" element I like and they complement each other so well. The uke's serious, an introvert and cute, the seme's extroverted and easygoing. NEIGHBOURS, PLAYBOY SEME An office worker (uke) who hides the fact that he's gay ends up drinking with his new neighbour (seme). But then the seme notices his glances and they hook up. That's the start of their special relationship.
