Don't Cry My Baby
Collection of stories: ▸ Ch. 1-2 Love Song|Don't Cry My Baby (pp. 11-78) - Salaryman x Straight Window Washer and Musician Reliable salaryman Fujita spots window washer Ohno outside his office and finds himself wondering what life would be like on the wild side. >> I like this type of encounter! I loved when their eyes met and Ohno started showing off haha through the window he looked so wild and hot! ▸ Ch. 3 Personal Feelings (pp. 79-120) - Salarymen // Boss x Subordinate // Sexual Curiosity Sawamura sleeps with a married woman, who turns out to be the wife of his boss, Chief Nishigaki! What is more, he finds out that his boss is actually gay... >> I like it when the MC has an affair with someone's wife and then he ends up being curious about the husband instead haha ▸ Ch. 4 A Wife's Love (pp. 121-154) - Salarymen // Boss x Subordinate // Age Gap // Oyaji Seme // Business Trip Chief Kawashima wonders why the competent young newcomer Mikami won't open up to him... ▸ Ch. 5 King (pp. 155-196) - Historical // Roman Empire // Coup d'etat // Enemy King x Former Prince // Stockholm Syndrome Invader Gabel's brutal victory upends the life of young prince Elio... >> This was interesting, because in historical genre it's rare to find BL set during that era, so it's something to check out for those who are into this kind of stories. To sum up, three stories are about salarymen, involving affairs in the 2nd and 3rd, and somehow they have a realistic touch; while the last one is historical and it's set at the time of the Romans. Overall, I liked all the stories (the 3rd is the one I liked less). For me, it's captivating how sensei draws manly guys, because their features seem like those of real men...like I commented about Ohno in the first story: that's the taste of a real, attractive man! And I also love sensei's distinctive way of ending stories...they may seem unfinished or vague but that's not the case...that's exactly how sensei wants them to end and I love it!
Knife Edge Girl
Collection of three nice slice of life stories (btw it's shoujo ai, not yuri): ● Knife Edge Girl - A week before the national entrance exam, Emiri goes to visit her childhood friend, Ai-chan, and asks for a good luck kiss... 》 Ai-chan is a tsundere, but she's actually very sweet! And Emiri..."I might need an even more powerful ritual next time, though. After a hug and a kiss comes..." haha such a greedy girl! ● Tourteau Fromagé - Miwa's boring OL life suddenly becomes exciting when she meets the gorgeous Nagae-san, who is a stage actress. 》 I really liked this story because I like chance encounters and I love this type of couple in GL! For this, I'd give 4 ● Graffiti - Two women who use the same desk at different times of the day communicate by drawing messages on the desk top. Kana begins to happily anticipate exchanging these messages and finds herself wishing to know who this stranger is who shares her desk...
Two Weddings and a Funeral
[Containing both BL & GL] Really hope it's not dropped! + Live-action Movie - Note: manhwa and live-action came out in the same year parallelly > Personally, I really liked the movie, it's really good as well, but I prefer the manhwa, which I love and it's one of my favourites!
Yasashii Koi ga Sodatsu Made
Lip Smoke
Female High-School Student (Age: 16) x Erotic Novelist (Age: 32) - "My first kiss tasted like tobacco" Apart from the fact that Seta-san is seriously hot, I really liked this story for the plot and everything else. The female lead is so cool: stoic and cold but assertive and daring. She's mentally strong and mature for her age. I loved her bold attacks and how she tried to seduce him hehe On the other hand, he may be a perverted old man, but he acted as a mature man, considering she is much younger... I really liked their interaction! The story has a pure feeling, but sexy and endearing at the same time...I wish there was more!!

•..• So funny and nice to read! I really like it as it is...but just saying...this is so teasing! I can't help it, I love them together and I think they'd make such a cute couple. So, just let me hope that in the future they'll really become lovers. And for me Keigo would be such a hot seme!
