YOWAMUSHI DANSHI, RENAI HAJIMEMASU

Complete | Haruyama Moto | 2000 released

Meh, I like the weak seme dynamic but I don't like the blackmail for sex setup. The tags do not capture how woobified the execution is, lol.

Hanayome Wa Oku-san

Complete | shimizu yuki | 2013 released

Meh, it's cute that it was mutual all along, but it's too short! And the art style is thr old janky kind lol.

Complex Jijou

Ongoing | Si mitsuru | 2019 released

Haha, the gap moe is strong! Two scary faced guys trip headfirst into romance. Not as good as the one about the unrequited friends with benefits, but still solidly entertaining, and not full of frustrating will they/won't they tropes.

Sekine-kun no Koi

Complete | kawachi haruka | 2000 released

4/25/25 Unexpectedly emotional! Took a few chapters to find it's footing, it feels like, then the art and the storytelling became very cohesive. Pretty serious subject matter at times, not really a cozy reread. The portrayal of Sekine trying to avoid sex with the business lady was impressively tense.
