Consent Best Yaoi & Shounen Ai with CONSENT

10/10
Just how many times did I reread it - before every new chapter? Makes my heart both ache and melt: characters are subtle and multi-layered, the story is detailed, the drama realistic and the romantic chemistry develops right before my eyes (very good re-read)

10/10 Fantastic!
Very good characters and progression. Caution for the 1st chapter don't let it make you think it's dark because it's actually very funny. Characters are nice and complex, I just love the mc! The coloration is beautiful and the drawing is simple yet very much my style

Slow burn
season 1: very good - not fast but wow the payoff - now it makes me feel so warm inside, for over 24 hours I ve had a big dumb smile on my face - just patiently read step by step (and after reading three times I can tell you it's a nice re-read)
season 2: not read yet. the first was shounen ai, this one is dirty time

warning: sort of stalking

warning: unwanted kiss by drunk ML
and several warnings for other characters

Gives me a big smile. Very likeable characters, I appreciate the emphasis on mc's struggle (although he manages it very well) to deal with both his work as a host and the kid he's raising. I also like that the MC is almost asexual (demisexual?) Very good rhythm, makes me melt, I love to reread it (and hope it continues)

quite realistic story, with very different characters - 2 couples
explores their struggles in life and work and directly ties them with the romance, that's what makes it uniquely nice

warnings: sex too rough (to the point of non-con?) (several) ; assault from another character (chap77 which can be skipped)

this is so cute
ongoing, chapter 18

2 main duos again (and both as interesting although very different)

Season 1 : Great surprise! Imperfect but very expressive drawing with nice colouring, great rhythm, for a remarkably lovey-dovey couple (and lots of melting sex). Very cute characters. Only warning is one scene in a campus bathroom (how reckless)

Season 2 : second couple has toxicity and a lack of safe word but no harsh non-con [complete but not on this site]

I'm quite invested in this relationship
It develops quite quickly and it's hot. I really like the sex scenes and I hope this unstable situation can transform into something more fulfilling and long term... since for once the fact ML's a gangster IS indeed a problem and obstacle

warning : surprise kiss in season one, dubious consent at the beginning of season two
(I didn't finish reading yet)

artstyle is odd but colourful
story is very nice, much care put into the characters
completed

Remarkably well paced relationship with lovely characters, a natural progression from rivalry to friendship to love. It made me invested in them as a couple and root for them. Simple and agreeable drawing, modern day setting with "rakugo" a Japanese storytelling art.

Note: consent here but not the same in some of Natsume Isaku's other works (that's why I have mixed feelings about "Ameiro Paradox" even though I enjoy the storytelling)
