Yane's manga / #Strong Female Lead(131)

Glamorous curse

Ongoing | 新戶まゆき | 2022 released

My rating: 7/10 They are both drop-dead gorgeous. And the art is so pretty. No wonder the smut here is good. But she basically strips him without his consent at the beginning ... and I REFUSE to believe that this is complete. ISEKAI, FANTASY After passing out at work the FL became a princess in another world. When she meets the ambassador of another country, she uses her magic on him to see his body. But then they end up doing it after she makes a mistake with her magic.

Gold Metal Bet

Ongoing | Ssuu | 2022 released

My rating: 5/10 It's alright, the panels are a bit small and the ending is rushed but overall it's a cute story. The smut isn't that good but nevertheless it's entertaining. CHILDHOOD FRIENDS, SPORTS A taekwondo athlete (ML) and a judo athelete (FL), childhood friends who have been betting on a gold medal since childhood, go to the Olympics. When the FL wins, she wants to use her wish from the bet to make him sleep with her and get over him.

Kill Me

Ongoing | Nok_hae | 2022 released

My rating: 6/10 The art's gorgeous but this is really messed up, not only is his back story hella traumatising, she is suicidal and their situation is devastating. Really, I'd rather they go see a therapist. But yeah it's engaging and the smut's hot. They're both so attractive. FEMDOM, ASSASSIN, DRAMA An assassin finds an abused young man in one of her target's house and takes him in. He's upset that he couldn't kill his abuser because of her and swears to kill her one day which she welcomes. Until then, they work together. But his feelings start to change ...

Hana Wants This Flower to Bloom!

Complete | Haruna Ueno | 2000 released

My rating: 8,5/10 I absolutely adore the FL with her positive attitude. She really never gives up, is naturally friendly and confident. The way she tries to charm the tsundere ML really got me invested, this never gets boring. But it doesn't feel complete, more like the end of a season. OFFICE ROMANCE, PLANTS Everything has been going downhill for Hana lately: her fiancee cheats on her, her plants die and then she gets molested on the train. Unexpectedly, a handsome man stands up for her. When they meet again during a marriage meeting, she starts to really want to date him. But although he helped her that time, he turns out to be rather cold and rejects her in a rude way?! She's gonna give up like that!

Kakekara Hajimaru Sayonara no Koi

Ongoing | Porun,Watanuki Men | 2000 released

My rating: 7,5/10 It's cute. I really like the FL, she's intelligent, has a great pokerface and still crushes on him hard. They complement each other with him being such a nice guy and a pushover. The ending's a bit rushed, there could've been be more drama, but it's alright. OFFICE ROMANCE, BET An office lady is known as the "Ice Iron Lady" in her company because of her cool and practical way of doing her job. One day, she overhears the seniors pressuring the guy she has a crush on to bet on whether he can get with her. So, she decides to use this to make some good memories with him until she resigns in 2 months.

Writing Hell

Ongoing | Fairydemon | 2019 released

My rating: 10/10 This psychological drama has so many layers it keeps me on my toes. The characters are all interesting and many of them have secrets. It's all a big mystery slowly coming to light. The FL's strong and the art is amazing too. MYSTERY, PSYCHOLOGICAL An author and lecturer hooks up with an older police officer because she wants him to tell her things about his work and help her with her novel that way. But then she finds out that he's the father of the student who loves her. This marks a changing point. One that could be connected to their past as well.

Dragon Sitter

Ongoing | Zika | 2019 released

My rating: 9/10 Such a beautiful story. It has all these funny little scenes but got unexpectedly deep and sad. The characters are complex and have reasons for acting the way they do. The FL is the perfect example for a lovely yet strong woman. I especially like her relationship with the dragon, the way he slowly opens up to her. The romance is just a side note. DRAGON, WAR, SITTER A young orphan girl takes on the job of the world's last dragon's sitter. But he's a tsundere drunkard who wants her to leave. Only slowly does she discover his backstory.

The Prince's Cactus

Complete | xu ci | 2000 released

My rating: 5/10 It's alright. It doesn't get boring and the banter between the FL and the ML is pretty cute. It has the shoujo clichés and childish behaviours but it's not bad. The ML changes his mind about her too abruptly tho. The FL is strong and stands up for herself, I like that. PRINCE, STEP AUNT, HATE TO LOVE The FL goes to her sister's wedding in Greece. Soon she meets the son of her sister's husband, an arrogant and spoiled prince surrounded by women. This is the starting point of their countless fights.

Fool's Paradise Series!

Complete | Tori phillips,Kazuko fujita | 2019 released

My rating: 7/10 This is pretty good, especially for a harlequin. The FL's strong, the ML's charming and loving and the romance is pretty sweet. And the overall plot is interesting and well-paced too. HISTORICAL, JESTER, PRINCESS After her father dies a sudden death a young princess flees from her fiancee she suspects is the killer. She meets a young jester and pays him to accompany her to the Queen's court to get her help. But in order to get there safely, she has to disguise herself as a boy.

Mistaken for a Mistress

Complete | | 2019 released

My rating: 5/10 It actually has potential. I like how strong-minded the FL is. She's outsmarting her opponents the whole time. Of course it's corny too, but that's to be expected. HERITAGE, MISTRESS, CHILD After her little brother's rich father dies, his wife's daughter and the son of their lawyer come to the FL to take away her little brother's heritage. They look down on her confusing her for the mistress the her brother's father had him with, but she won't let them win that easily.
