Ookami-sama no Koiwazurai
Oh this is good stuff!! Love when the stars align to make something this well rounded and enjoyable! Not actually uncensored, but close enough. Plus has all the benefits of alpha sex w/o the dumb tropes!
Hochichirui Hitoka
Omg this is amazing!!! Instafav, the relationship development and the sex positivity is god-tier, not to mention the gap moe. Right up there with Nirameba and the Doctor/Construction one. Plus there's a bonus one shot chapter of the B characters, nice.
Hadakeru Kaibutsu
A rare serious manga that believably redeems the bad ex, but NOT with the same partner. I didn't read much of Yumi's story only because it sort of undercut the impact of his and Kan-chan's (Hayashida's) story, and the abuse didn't need belaboring to get the point across. Hayashida's story is just the more interesting one, with more unexpected twists and turns and general subject matter. Maybe not the most cozy and rereadable favorite, but a favorite nonetheless!
Michizure Policy
My only complaint is its not longer! The conflict of Shinohara wanting to just stay friends rather than risk losing Nishioka to them breaking up was really moving and believable. I love how affectionate they are, and communicative (eventually, lol) BL without sexuality crisis is always great!!
Maou Uke BL
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA Only read ch 2. What a hilarious and wholesome little scenario, I love it. Slimes deserve love too! XD
Gokutora no Honey Bunny
Short and sweet. The stuff about finding time to be alone and have sex was actually really cute and grounded, less tropey.
Nichijou Climax
Established relationship drama, yay! I need lots of these.
Kemono Joushi ni Jitsuwa Mitomerarete Ita Hanashi
Is being released in English!! Vols 1-2 available, Vol 3 just published in Japanese Jan 2024, hopefully coming soon... Hmm... I want to like this more, but the tone is so... Restrained? Everything is being funneled through office politics, and the constant strong beast reiatsu from Atlas is getting old.
Shachou, Koibito no Furi wo shite Watashi no Chichi ni Atte kudasai
Skimmed it because it's practically short form comedy I wish it didn't just end without showing them in an actual relationship. One assumes all the spoiling along the way is how Sakon would be in a real relationship, but the ending suggests he'll spoil Nonoka EVEN MORE that he already was. Bit of a let down tbh, but at least I didn't read it fully straight through.
