Kimi Ga Nozomeba Ano Hoshi Saemo

Complete | Nakamura Sae | 1998 released

(()) "People of the World" Theatrical Company's Actor Susami x High-school Student Hashiba (17), who then joins the company to substitute an injured actress in a play. > Involving also the company's chairman Oginome and his former lover Tomomi, who was also an actor in the company before, but then went over to another company called "Black", managed by Oginome's senpai Kuroda, who is the antagonist of the story and tries to sabotage "People of the World". In the end, thankfully Oginome and Tomomi come together again and it's a happy ending for them too! The very ending, although rushed, was fun and cute! Especially Susami's adlib in the play haha I loved Hashiba and Susami together!

Nice start, but that's only the beginning! It ends right where the real story should begin! XD # Stepfather-Stepson Relationship

Sin

Complete | Ka Yu Jin | 2000 released

I feel sad when a story had potential, but it's only a short oneshot! And that's definitely the case with this story! This certainly leaves us with a bittersweet but realistic taste, but personally I'd have loved to venture into reading a dangerous forbidden love story, so I wish it was longer and that the youth pursued his feelings! After all, the beginning was great and the story could have gone on! Anyway, with that kind of ending, one could still think that maybe at some point he will go and confess to the priest, as, even after years passed, he still can't forget him...yeah, just let me think that! # Bittersweet // Unexpressed Feelings

Secrecy

Complete | HARUNO Mami | 2000 released

High-school student Sato (17 turning 18) x Salaryman Hiroki (23) ≪✿✿≫ I really liked that, as the story went on, more of Hiroki's thoughts were revealed and we saw how he changed thanks to the love received by Sato. I especially liked the last chapter, where more details of their first encounters were revealed: I really appreciated that, because at the beginning I actually thought that the author skipped some parts that I wanted to see. But, after reading the whole story, I think that I liked it more this way! And I loved that parallelism of the train scene: we clearly saw how things changed and how they had grown from that third encounter (which was when their relationship truly began). Well, in the very end, I admit that I wanted something more, but overall I think that it's a really good story! > Note: The oneshot called Take A Deep Breath, included in vol. 2, is not scanlated.
