RoseMary's manga / #Multiple Couples(89)

16 Volumes (Complete) - Too bad it's dropped! I was really enjoying it!

It's so rare to find a long good series like this nowadays, especially about music / with music band! And with anime (and live-action) adaptation to boot! I think there haven't been any since the "Gravitation" days! Anyway, apart from my weakness for stories with music bands, I really love all the characters / couples! It's actually a sad and dramatic story for some aspects, but it's an interesting and emotional reading! Definitely a BL masterpiece! • 1st couple: Ritsuka and Mafuyu (high-school students, different classes // Mafuyu's lover / childhood friend Yuki, who was in a band with Hiiragi and Shizu, committed suicide and he's left with only his guitar // Now in high school Mafuyu asks Ritsuka to teach him to play the guitar and then he becomes the vocalist of the band "The Seasons", whose name will be changed to "Given", in reference to the guitar that was given to Mafuyu that felt like a curse but became a new beginning) • 2nd couple: Haruki and Akihito (Uni students // Older Uke // Akihito is currently freeloading at the apartment of his ex-lover, violin prodigy, Ugetsu) • 3rd couple: Hiiragi and Shizu (childhood friends of Mafuyu and Yuki // Ex-bandmates of Yuki and now still in a band together) Adapted to Anime, Anime movie, OVA and JDrama.

Uncle x Nephew (Not blood related - The Uncle is the step-brother of the nephew's mother) // Guardian Relationship (()) A precious gem! My most favourite story by Hideyoshico! There're so many elements here that I totally love - age gap, youth x adult, family affair, guardian relationship, slow romance, first experiences - that I couldn't ask for more! I really enjoy reading this story! I'm actually really excited to read more, I can't wait for the next chapters! The story is already complete, so I hope to read the rest! > Btw, I'm also curious about the uncle's half-brother, the college student...I hope'll get together with his gay friend who is secretly in love with him!

Adorable main couple - I can't help it, I'm obsessed with younger and shorter seme combination, so I fell in love so hard with Shinkai!! Also, I'd like to smell him too to know what it is like the smell that makes Yumeji go crazy! ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄ The side couple (Yumeji's friends: Maru and Mu) is also cute and megane Maru is a very interesting character~ I just started recently to tag stories so I'm also re-reading them..this one is definitely a story you will enjoy reading again! ❖Smell Fetish

20th Century // School Life // Slice of Life // Romance // Change in art style // Character Growth // Rivals Become Lovers // False Personality // Family Drama // Hidden tragic past // Multiple couples // Pregnancy // Time Skip ((*..*)) TBH, I found the beginning very boring. I had a hard time reading it, but later it gets a lot better with the progressing of the story and when new characters are introduced. I loved step-siblings Tsubasa and Kazuma, so adorable!! That's why I began to enjoy the reading around ch 50 (ch 48-57, approximately), when there is the development of their relationship! From ch 59, the story goes back to the main couple and finally it becomes more interesting and mature; it goes much more in depth, dealing with more serious issues and all the family drama. Maybe it's not a story I'd re-read, but overall it's good! Adapted to Anime - I think the beginning is funnier to watch in the anime, rather than in the manga, where it seemed boring to me, as I said...

Smut Inter-Linked stories revolving around the members of a host club called Fairy Tale Land, which offers different kinds of services to its clients... 1 Volume (Complete) - Dropped...

️Great story by Ikeda Riyoko that somehow is regrettably underrated and a bit forgotten as well, when in actuality it's a masterpiece! A coming-of-age gem! It's sad but beautiful. Deep and emotional. Especially for those who like classics and melodrama, this is a must-read! I like both manga and anime. Apart from some differences between them (with some added and|or expanded scenes, also rendered in a more melodramatic way, and especially differences regarding the final tragic events in the last chapters and the ending itself, which, on the contrary, were toned down a bit respect to the manga and the biggest difference would be Kaoru’s ending, which isn’t a tragic one in the anime), I think they are both great. About the anime, I have to say that I personally was particularly impressed by it. It's one of my favourites! It's really well-done and especially visually is well crafted: I loved all the details, all the different lights and colors, and framing. All the different background scenes like the beautiful ever-changing views of the sea and sunset, and the city's lights at night, the rainy scenes and all the general scholastic atmosphere! I loved every little detail and the music as well! Each episode was great. And it makes me feel so nostalgic, because there aren't anime like this anymore! I actually had already watched it long ago, but I didn't read the manga back then. So, now I'm so glad to have watched it again and to have finally read the manga as well! I totally recommend both anime and manga.️ > Note: It includes both lesbian and straight elements. And it includes heavy issues. Anime: gogoanime.nl / anime / dear-brother-147v

An essential in GL category! > The relationships and feelings mostly are platonic / ambiguous and there aren't any kiss scenes (apart from the situation of one of the characters, Satou Sei - Rosa Gigantea, who had been in an actual lesbian relationship before, as we see in the story), so it feels more like GL subtext. Notwithstanding, "Maria-sama ga Miteru", especially the original novel series, is regarded as one of the most prominent works of the GL panorama. And it's a must-read story indeed! [Baka-Updates] The setting is Lillian Academy, a private Catholic all-girls school where the student council is known as the Yamayurikai (Mountain Lily Council) and younger students are taken under the wing of older students through a system known as the "soeur system" ("soeur" is French for "sister"). The main character, Yumi, who is basically a nobody, suddenly finds herself interacting with the members of the Yamayurikai and their soeurs, most notably her crush, the talented, beautiful, and withdrawn Sachiko... mangaupdates.com / series.html?id=253 - 9 Volumes (Complete) // Dropped... > Last available here: vol. 5 ch. 35 (Valentine's Day part) Based on the long light-novel series "Maria-sama ga Miteru" - novelupdates.com / series / maria-sama-ga-miteru / The novel was adapted to Anime and Live-action Movie as well: gogoanime.nl / anime / maria-watches-over-us-nk7m gogoanime.nl / anime / maria-watches-over-us-printemps-ol75 gogoanime.nl / anime / maria-watches-over-us-3rd-pm7q gogoanime.nl / anime / maria-watches-over-us-season-4-mj78 veoh.com / watch / v120847655S3pWmkrN
