5/10 a Cross dresser who doesn't want to admit he's gay and the socially awkward guy who finds out his secret and likes him. A lot of denial which you don't find too much of in manga.
6/10 super cute and fluffy. The characters didn't change personalities mid-way so that was a major plus. When friends become more than friends, but not quite lovers is the theme.
5/10 it's low only because it was slightly confusing and there was a lot of unnecessary verbage. I enjoyed the overall plot and it wasn't super cliche like many stories sith this premise get.
7/10 it would be an 8 but I feel as though the same didn't show enough change. This is the 3rd time reading this and it's still good. Vicious rape sxend, so be warned. A sorta homophobic seme realized he's loved by his bandmate after accidentally mistaking him for a woman and sleeping with him at an orgy. There's a sequel.
8/10 so sweet and such a great flow! Tge different drawing style is refreshing too. As a punishment game in high school, Hase confessed to his new friend Nadaguchi. He wasn't expecting to be accepted! But, of course, dating that way never ends well, and anger creates a bitterness that stems from real love. What's to happen when it seems like they're doing it all again 10 years later?!
4/10 a polyamorous relationship that actually feels pretty real. However, a lot more could have been done. Slightly disappointed because I really enjoy this author's works. Definitely read for the smut and for the art. Story is slightly lacking. Still a good read to kill time, just felt hurried at the end.
8/10 I can't believe it took me so long to find this. It's probably my 4th read of this manga. The dynamics are wonderful and the characters don't do that sudden personality change mid-way like you often get with yaoi. When Natsuka's sex friend, Seno, and his first/only love, Hakushima, get into an accident, Seno regains consciousness and says he's Hakushima! Natsuka doesn't believe him at first (thankfully, SOMEONE finally went that route) but his doubt makes him give in until the other wakens.
9/10 this was so cute! So funny and just made me happy. Awkward and shy samejima loves his coworker sasahara. After giving it some thought, sasahara decideds it's not so bad to be loved by samejima, especially if he gets to tease him. Cute story about how they develop their love.
5/10 this would be a six but the story was slightly convoluted and names were a little hard to place at certain points. Not a great job in the details, but it was worth the read. Definitely a filler, and smooth ups and downs. Not what in was expecting at all. When three childhood friends meet again, what's changed? What hasn't? How will it affect their futures?
7/10 So far, this is a tragedy. Chapter 6 seems to be the end but I'm hoping it's not! When a popular singer/songwriter has lost his voice and secluded himself in an island town, he is captivated by a boy, Nagi, who sings with a beauty he's not heard before. He's inspired to write again. What will tear them apart and was it all really just a dream? Magic, in all it's wonder, doesn't always bring about happiness and can leave a bittersweet taste in the throat.

To anyone subscribed, there is a continued version of this list and there will be more continuations, I'm sure, as in continue to read. The list's continuations will be numbered and will be the same format and follow the aamw guidelines as this one.
Okay, so it won't let me edit the summary I did for this list, so I just want to add that I will be ranking the manga out of ten, but rest assured it takes a regular 5 or 6 to actually make it on this list as I read manga daily.
Totally agree with you on Junko!
