The Stranger in the Hoarding House

Complete | Joe Aruku | 2022 released

(4 years age gap, nothing too bad since they met at 26 and 30) this was unexpectedly good! they're both so pretty and the last chapter was really so beautiful and heartwarming. though short, their kissing scenes felt so soft and tender and the overall story was very touching yet 'light' enough to read? if that makes sense, the author approached a heavy subject well, more like. they were able to make a beautiful story without having to make anything soul crushing - and I couldn't help but root for both characters! so sweet

Papa to Boku to Kazoku ni Natte yo

Ongoing | kutsukawa | 2019 released

girl this was pretty ass lmaooo- kinda but not really? I'm very conflicted. the happy times were less than the bad times, the first three chapters were hard to get through because besides ka-whatever, sore and his dad were pretty unlikeable. even if I can understand why nonomura acted the way he did it still pissed me off (maybe I'm projecting) but it just felt idk- yk that fuckass tiger that makes everything about him? the last two chapters felt like that with nonomura

Living With Him

Complete | miyata toworu | 2000 released

this was good. x2 they eere sweet and kazushi? was so sweet and patient and ughh so cute. I thought nagawara (or wtv) was gonna be way whinier and annoying, yk? but he's actually decent. I really like tanaka, tho that's it lmao

After Staring at the Starry Sky

Complete | Kida bisco | 2019 released

the only reason I'm not giving this 5 stars is because of chapter 4 and 5 in the first volume.. like.. was that really necessary? if one fleeting thought is enough to make u break up with your man, maybe your relationship wasn't meant to be in the first place? other than that, this was super cute and wholesome! subaru was so cute in the first volume and togo's dad is such a looker ughh subaru's mama was also super well written imo, I loved her smm

Shout Loud My Heart

Complete | Youga rayri | 2022 released

very light and sweet! I wish we got something something going on for Tommy cause I love him so much. but mika and gen were both super sweet- that to say, this is decently forgettable but a good one time read!

Tameshi ni Komando Itte mita

Ongoing | Yukue moegi | 2022 released

Holy fuck I love them?? so funny and wholesome and fluffy. barely any angst or miscommunication all thanks to masa ughh this was soo good!! I love their banter and back 'n forth. like how often do you see a guy pissed off after being out in the corner by his man and Dom?? lmaoo I really loved everything about this, wish it was longer by 30 chapters

they're so beefyyyy ughhhh tomose or wtvs thighs were so fucking jucy I looovee when mangakas aren't afraid to make their characters look like well loved adults ugh. the story was good, I liked how they ended ip understanding each other and their needs but.. was that fuckass almost rape scene necessary so watase (wataru?) could come to his rescue? fuck no. and that's what pissed me tf off.. but the rest was super solid and I enjoyed it!!

Hell & High Water

Complete | Son Gae Pi, Charlie Chochet | 2000 released

mannnn i thought they would switchhhhhhhh ughhhh - but I liked the story! I inhaled this shit like crazy and dex is super likable. like. I fucking love him. I do think they fell in love wayyy too fast but it's still only 28 cheaters and shit. maybe I'll give the books a read some day? who knows. but this was fun. I wanted to see that big beefy guy get absolutely pounded- and hobbs. need to see that man get fucked and praised like crazy I also super enjoyed how much PLOT there was and how they only fucked twice- super refreshing

How Far Is My Dream Allowed?

Complete | Momose an | 2019 released

I will say, chapter 4 (when seto?) shows up drunk and shit was weird as hell but they both did seem into it? I loved the toy scene because we don't see both parties enjoy playing with toys so earnestly and they're both cuties, actually! a little bit of angst but nothing much and fairly likable characters! also need kega (?) pregnant STAT. he's so fucking pretty. I love his senior, too.
