Never Days
Awwwwwwww! TBH, the first pages kept me wondering what is going on or is it just the usual confess-sex-whambam-ty oneshot UNTIL that construction mishap that hit the pair. OMG I was so scared for them I hate character deaths and so this started the plot twist that I've been waiting for. Seme may be shy but is actually a genius and did what he could to save his beloved. Now that the future self is gone, they were back to square one but it's not like they will start of with nothing. If anything, seme saving uke made it more romantic. A shame at that ending. It's a bit bittersweet but cute but it definitely could have served one more episose.
Uchi no Ouji Irimasen ka
Adorable story of a sheltered family prince/bocchama who enrolled to a public school for the first time. (RK is homeschooled) Nobody knows he's rich AF. He gained friends, experienced "interesting" common people things and even fell inlove. The process of how the two fell inlove and eventually confess is so cute. #cute friendship. i like their female friend. she is nice. feels like we're properly represented.
Change World
⟫ Sayonara Game > Change World. FIN, 6 chaps. 2018 EDIT: WOOT there's VOL 2! Sayonara game is already good but this is explosive. The reason why I made full marks on this manga is that it is impressive overall. IMO, it has more depth and introspection than the last one and I kind of preferred that while the serious villain who tried to go between them spiced things up and bring it to a higher level. i love matsu. he's the uke's classmate so he's also arimura's kohai. he's finally figured out that sempai and itou were lovers and he is a very considerate and supportive friend after the discovery.

ch.1-3 & 6: gullible, straightforward guy (seme) x melancholic doctor (uke) who escaped from the city because of a scandal. #reencountered playmate. adorable grandma knew that his grandson is gay and caught on something developing bet his grandson & the childhood friend. ch.4-5: #restaurant chef x a cheerful, #cute apprentice, one fluffy story. #bisexual seme x straight uke. after a lighthearted warning by a coworker, puppy-like apprentice became aware of everything the chef did and the special treatment really do have a motive afterall.
Kazoku Ni Narouyo
(Nov: Marking as finished since it's probably just waiting for the extra. *Hopefully*.) Synopsis: Touching family manga that goes beyond blood. The girl completing their trio is back & still as quirky as always. Our couple has totally become doting uncles for the newborn & suddenly got tasked to serve as a parent to the child while the mother embarks on her self-imposed duty to the world (job: war photojournalist). Well, despite that, I still find her nice and cool albeit a little of an outlier with her bizzare attitude. The pair is living the lovey-dovey life sans living together but with the little girl's entry, lifestyle will change, including frequent cockblocks. Personally, this manga made "family manga" mean a lot more with the kid's mom and the couple's parents. There's love all around their extended family and I am happy that for once, the mother is included in the family circle. It just gives bad vibes when the women are made as plot device villains. #already lovers for three years at the start of the story.
I Hate
2017 update: IS THIS FOR REAL? Whole. Volume.!! Oh myyyy REREADING LIKE SHIT. Ch. 1-2: 27 years old & MC's still a virgin. Chalked it out on some kissing trauma in HS when in all actuality he's sweetly in love w/ Sir trauma-source this whole 10 yrs. #reencounter romance. Ch. 3-5: #childhood friends who had a weird relationship. Talk about changes, growth and suppressed feelings. Mc(uke) is an anti-social man who never welcomed anyone beside him but since boyhood, there's this guy who never left him. After all these years, he thought that confession was a joke. Time passed, and after five years of not seeing each other, friend visited back in town. CH. 5.5-5.6: omake for all the couples. BTW they were all acquaintances, were friends in high school. Found out they were now all gay for the other? I like how mangaka put it. ALL FOUR GAYS ASSEMBLED. lol. I just love you sensei. Both stories are good. IDK, it's perfect.The combination of the artwork, plot and the presentation if emotion takes you inside the book like few mangakas would.
Stranger
@2017: Finally. FINISHED! (`Д´)ノ Never thought i'd see the day! Unique cowboy x indian manga set in a desert. Beautiful, drool-worthy art + the translators did a very good job. A sheriff is about to die in the vast desert with his dead horse and no water but a native saved him. Sheriff slowly got attracted to the native and started to share how this little town is his salvation. However, his bad past came back to him at the arrival of a wanted man who called him "boss". I chuckled when fran's friend appeared. Suddenly, the wild, wild west theme song played in my mind AND I JUST CAN'T. ROFL. Kudos to mangaka for being able to achieve her wild west movie-like manga. This could easily be a masterpiece if we had another volume in order to dig deeper on the pair's past.
Nanimoiuna
Nishida Higashi is back with her fine-as -aged-wine adult men stories! Ch. 1 & 7: Amusing seme x seme setup. Two rivaling co-workers of the sales department refuses to get one-upped by the other. An out-of-town trip to chase a big client make way to open up possibilities that one can bottom. And perhaps to identify that tension between them as well. .//. Ch. 2-3: At first scene we see a company director grilling a subordinate about a pair of questionable women's underwear. Pressured, the subordinate confessed to having an affair with the director's wife. Next, we were at the bar and the two men are laughing it off like mad. So. It's all actually just a sex play. LOL. These funny bosses. (They were director and deputy director). Afterwards, it's their backstory. maybe this started their pretend play fetish. .//. Ch. 4: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/joshi_bl/mf/c003/ .//. Ch. 5: Oh this is quite rare. A manly man that tops secretly wanted to be uke. The mama at the bar he frequents warns them about a rapist on the prowl. Our MC, being foolish tried to be bait. Now, he should be regretting this as he's being violated but there's something familiar about this person and called him out. BTW, the mama-san without his makeup is sooo handsome lol. .//.

Kichiku Megane dj - Chotto Dake Kichiku Megane
It's because it's a DOUJINSHI from Kichimega, a BL GAME. The dj-ka even did some little intro before diving in (starting straightforwardly is like a normal thing in fan comics SMH) Midou route. uke!saeki. OMG this whole di is ON CRACK!! #sex toys on ass# while in a meeting. The old executives welcomed saeki to their "vibrator club" because of his godly way of handling midou and the vib remote. This is weird and unique bec it's the saeki cool glasses version that is made into uke when it's usually the non-glasses version. -Second story is a parody of how the mysterious glasses can do practically anything. LOL chibi hands looks so weird. This is a comedy-focused dj so it's uncalled for to rate it poorly. I think the humor is great but people quickly passed judgement when you haven't even played the game yet. :(
