cmdrbanger's manga / #student x student(117)

Unlike "I didn't ask you to make love to me", the plot in between the smut is sorely lacking. The seme is wayyy too pushy, so much that it's like the uke is just accepting it for a while. The drama is rote, and just as quickly resolved in a rote manner. Boring.

Eh, the most interesting part was the potential for a relationship with Shinya instead. (obviously the nice B guy lost lol) He reminded me a bit of Makoto (Free). Still, there was also good resolution for Jousei and Motoki, especially since they made up publicly so they didn't even hide their relationship in the end. Very progressive!

8/2/25 This is an EXCELLENT collection of mildly spicy shojo one shots. All of them feature a first kiss, and they're drawn in a way that is deeefinitrly more smut adjacent than not. Makes me. wonder why the artist is used to drawing.

8/4/25 First volume was good and cute, oneshot was cute, slightly worse translation. Second volume, worse translation, and then as I skimmed it the younger seme mentioned getting taller eugh. So lame. Just let him be shorter, enough with the bigger=dominant trope. I skimmed the rest of Vol 2 because of the translation being worse.

8/5/25 Eh fine. Nothing standout. College meet cute.

8/11/25 - Hmmm... I like it, but it felt a little dragged out. The other "unrequited" friends to lovers manga by the same mangaka, Gunjou no Subete, is more my taste.
