cmdrbanger's manga / #Sweet(208)

Very sweet, though not as moving as some of their other work. The stalker-y vibes from Touma ended up being okay, but they were *very* stalker-y.

Huh, interesting. Ended up being a lot more straightforward with minimal misunderstanding /miscommunication scenes to drive the plot. Actually quite cute! I wish there was a little more character design up date for Ebi to show the passage of time like Leo got, but whatever.

Very cute, little to no drama. This is like a shoujo romance as the crow flies haha. I liked it, but overall it's a bit surface level.

This is cute! It's missing... Something, not sure what, that would make it 5*. Maybe it's a bit too vague somehow? Idk.

Similar feelings to their other manga I read - good art, satisfying emotional scenarios, more realistic focus on sex and expressions, kissing is still suuuuper awkward looking lol.

This is one of the most adorable manga I've ever read, AND it has a preternaturally apt theme and message for me in particular (re game dev). Straight to the favorites!

Comments called it bara, it's really not. Lots of different yaoi flavors though, from strangers to lovers, threesome senpai uke (2)/kouhai seme, gap moe, etc etc. I'm not sure I have a favorite, the way it surprised me just made for interesting reading. Oh! I've read some of their work before, Brand New Star. Pretty sure I really liked that one.

Unfinished predecessor to Bachi Bachi. Another anthology book with oddball scenarios. Wish I could read the rest, unfortunately even the raws aren't here.

Short and sweet oneshot. Kawanami and Mifune.

(Ch 18) Oh this is a good one. A Cinderella plot full of comedy and the male lead as the main POV? So refreshingly unique, and it's been a good story too! I could predict some things, like the ML and servants finding alternate sources of revenue through their own shop, but that hasn't hindered any enjoyment. I wish the Bookshop Saintess manga had been this charming.
