Long lost childhood friend returns completely changed from the cute crybaby he was into a model. The friend he longed to see went from happy to protect to utterly stoic.
Boss flirts with employee, employee hasn't a clue about love, so mostly ignores boss. Boss persists, employee succumbs, but is still clueless, though eventually it works out.
A cute story about a girl learning to cope with what mostly goes unseen in the world.
I put this story in this list because I found this precious, though it may not be for many. Roommates working through some prostitution and personal issues, but the end is sweet.
This was cute. Kids running a eatery for those passing through or on. There is some character development, mild crushing (the emotional variety) and there was room for much more, but it's still a sweet story.
This was really sweet. One of the first that I read, and I've gone back to it more than once. Just a couple of normal guys meeting, mating and working through the dilemma of mingling different lives.
Guy has a bad experience with a love interest, but then he befriends someone who accepts him for who he is. This newly found acceptance sparks a crush that ends up not being reciprocated. Later, this guy encounters the brother of the man he had a crush on, which causes emotional turmoil for both men in this new relationship. It really was sweet. There is no crazed possesive passion over a misunderstanding or manifestations of disgust of a little brother 'lead astray'.
This is a world where people can metamorphose into various animals and their love interests. (Momo and Hachi are part of this series.) This is a reunion between old classmates who seemed to traumatize each other; one by releasing frogs in the toilet and the other by crying and wetting himself.
A world where people metamorphose into various animals. (Momo and Banbi are part of this series.) Two childhood friends meet a younger schoolmate and the three become friends; two are 'normal' humans, one is a human/hedgehog. The 'normal' humans begin dating, but love is also blossoming between one of the 'normal' ones and the hedgehog. This creates turmoil, a threesome and a break up, but eventually it all works out in the end. Contains bestiality.
So precious. The king of hell is quite lustful, but he's willing to restrain himself for a human in his employ. This is a story of love, sacrifice and reincarnation.
