Smollkuma's manga / #Shounen Ai(40)

Satou, a straight businessman with a kindergarten-aged son, falls for Takahashi, his gay neighbour, who loves children. Takahashi has endured censure and abuse, and Satou and his cute son had to deal with abandonment by his ex-wife, so they both bring their baggage to the relationship, and this manga shows how they deal with it and master their instincts. Satou is a little more authoritarian than I like in men, and I almost dropped the story at one point where he crosses the line, even if his first concern is for his son. The story is so fearsomely earnest and tries so hard to be wholesome and sweet almost into maudlin territory, it's difficult to stay offended for long. A lot of Kitazawa Kyou's stories tend to dance on the edge of that place where the autocratic seme almost overwhelms the compliant and good-hearted uke, so this is clearly a power dynamic preference of the mangaka's. It isn't mine, though, but this time, Kyou doesn't let the story go too far.

1. Very cute story about a divorced dad and a power ranger type character. Very sweet relationship as they are honest with each other and try to figure things out. 2. Very short one shot about basketball club reunion that brings two people back together.

2 guys in HS. Cute one shot about really close friends taking that step to become lovers. It was a little rushed at the end. Nice art though. Nothing challenging here.

Heita lives with his retired grandfather in a small rural community boarding house that closed after his grandmother died, while he attends school and looks after the one remaining boarder, Miharu, a university researcher who seems incapable of looking after himself. He has some vaguely realized feelings toward Miharu which he expresses by preparing luxurious bentou and sharing the futon during rainstorms. Meanwhile, Miharu's feelings for Hei-chan are hardly vague, but he is an adult and Heita isn't, and that seems to mean something in this story

THIS IS SO REFRESHING!!!! A light-hearted and warm story from this author is enough to make me relive those early days of me discovering fluffy bl's and fall in love with them all over again... (▰˘◡˘▰)

Tobari's always loved cute and feminine things. Which sparks his eventual venture into drag. One day, while he was out in public dressed as a high school girl, he bumps into fellow classmate, Inui. It's annoying to Tobari how amusing Inui finds it, but at least he's promised not to tell anyone. But with no plans of letting him off for this hobby, Inui proposes something outrageous. He is twisted and unstable, but for some reason, his words are reassuring. A story of a secret love woven with something unnerving.

Ch.1 Reversed Escape - The way the merry Seme trickily gets the Uke wrap around his little finger is just too cute. • Ch.2 Alone Again - Being afraid to be disliked, the cutie's always forced himself to fit in.. which only the taciturn but straightforward Seme has noticed. Somehow I like that Seme still looks after his Otaku close friend, didn't leave him alone behind. • Ch.3 Boundary of Air - Bumped into childhood friend with his GF, but how come he tries to steal his BF?! - Umm.. I personally dislike 'Stealing Belonging of the One You Love Theme especially both cheat here. Though the mangaka tried to soften up, it's still out of place in this collection. • Ch.4 Red and Blue - On high school last day, the frisky guy decided to confess his hidden 3 years passion to his slow friend which's weird him out as got bluntly accepted. HA+ • Ch.5 Last Train Elegy - Got off the last train, he's in LAFS with a lovelorn cutie who's crying, soaking wet from the rain, resembled a WET RAT!
