Pavlov's Lover

Complete | tsushiko | 2000 released

Aki is a chef who finds joy in feeding others. Eiji is the high schooler who would stop to watch him grill meat through the window every day. Unable to resist the longing on his face, Aki beckoned Eiji in to feed him on a rainy evening. Wanting to see more, Aki invited him for a home cooked meal. What Eiji didn’t know was that the kind chef who was feeding him had a hidden yearning to be devoured. And when Eiji was happy to return the favor, Aki couldn’t control the sexual response to being marked with Eiji’s strong teeth. This unlikely couple were quite adorable. A biting fetish story may not be for everyone but I liked how intense the mangaka made each deliberately aimed bite for Aki.

Afureru Namida o Nomikondanara

Complete | Aki Nohagi | 2000 released

A very different kind of fetish story, one where Amaike (who becomes sexually stimulated at the sight of tears and wants to consume them) feels he is abnormal and avoids relationships and even work that would have him near others. When he meets the recently broken up and crying Miharu, Amaike brings the sad man back to his apartment and for the first time in his life he lets his fetish loose. The gentle Miharu and the quiet Amaike begin a casual relationship, but neither of them are a casual kind of guy. The story is full of heartwarming moments and a deepening connection between these 2 men. Acceptance is a wonderful thing, especially when it goes both ways.

Okurete kita haru wa

Complete | Nohagi aki | 2019 released

This is a cute story about 38yo erotic novelist, office worker, and virgin Nouchi Hisanori and the one that he falls for, 20yo Chika. One of the lovely things about the story is that it is told from both of their POV with Hisanori first, and then we get to see the way he shaped Chika’s life and why Chika fell so hard. It’s a destined couple vibe with plenty of humour and warmth.

The tall, sporty “normie” joins the club and an unlikely friendship based on mutual admiration slowly develops between these polar opposites as Enoki’s bubbly kindness breaks through Shirataki’s aloofness. It’s really a great story with some lol moments sprinkled throughout. Highly recommended.
