Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #delinquent(107)

All worth a read, but lots of dubious consent between MCs takes some of the shine off these stories. Add to that there was often an abusive seme paired with a victim..Er naive uke and stories like that never give me a HEA vibe. More like a HFN until the uke grows up some more and develops a sense of self worth.

So cute and sweet with a touch of violence (no weak seme’s for a Harada). Great oneshot.

Three good stories. The piano pair were my favourite, they were quite unexpected and there were some funny moments in their story

5 stars just for Yamai, setting the bar pretty darn high for being the best seme and a decent human being. This was a great story that leaves that feel good glow.

Another cute story by this author

One of my favourites in the series this story covers the secret childhood relationship between the cold disciplinarian student council VP, Yukimura and his laid back blackmailing neighbour, Shinonome. It seems that Shinonome has fallen for his senpai next door and is ready to blackmail, tease, and tear down the facade that Yuki chan hides behind in order to win his affections. Opposites attract but these guys are more alike than you would initially think and the prickly Yukimura is no pushover.

So cute. Shinonome is good for Yukimura, I love how he understands him so well and pushes his boundaries. If Yuki really had a partner like he selected in the last chapter he would be unbearable..

So sad this is the last to read in this series, I have gotten very attached to these guys. I didn’t like how Kousaka intruded oh Shinonome and Yukimura’s relationship in this story, but it did highlight the vulnerability of Yuki and it was wonderful to watch Shinonome know just what his partner needed to feel secure. They are a bit of a crazy couple but they work so well together, and this manga was really great for showing the strong ties between these MCs.

Very cute but the Dad’s a little disturbing in his closeness

Two fantastic stories with flawed, imperfect characters. The first pair, Hiro and Natsuo, were once classmates in high school. Hiro was painfully introverted and insecure about himself while Natsuo was a flashy delinquent with terrible fashion sense. Hiro felt intimidated by the puppy like delinquent and blamed him for ruining his school life. Years later they meet at the workplace of the totally madeover Hiro and he plans for some long dreamt of revenge. This pair were adorable but it was hard to watch Natsuo get hurt by Hiro’s plot. My heart hurt in empathy. The second couple, almond eyed and intimidating Hayashida and flashy and popular Shuuna were sex friends. Hayashida was closed off to forming a close, emotional bond because of his history of violence in his younger years. But Shuuna wanted to make the man he was falling for feel free to laugh again in his presence. This story was so good because the MC was a flawed character and basically hated himself for his previous actions. It was good to see that the full seriousness of his actions were something he acknowledged and condemned, but I was still happy he found someone to love.
