Good Finds ◥BL◤ Plot, Pacing buildup 1 VOL+

the most adorable and squishy little seme ever. elementary kid seme x high schooler uke... there's a time skip when they were both of legal age. it is great that the mangaka made a reasonable age/timeline for them to have their sex.

physical relationship: first to develop.
emotional pacing: slow-paced. fragile mutual feelings
genre: work romance, matured, publishing
length: vol 9+
uke is now afraid to love. neverthelss, there's lots of doki-doki moments bet. the two.
fluffy-smutty
one of the more popular manga out there who got a suuuper slow pace. yet, at the same time physical coupling has been going on. well, they are two consenting adults now. their life.

i like how it properly took time for the straight uke to come in terms with his feelings for his former roommate without all those fancy, elaborate drama. time skip for a reencounter as adults and a revisit of figuring out those feelings.
#this is pretty nice but again, mature theme might not be for little idealists

oku-san and his fantasies are getting in the way lol. so it took more than a dozen chapters just to have an actual RL confrontation. but it's still fun.

physical relationship come first
they may immediately jump the gun in terms of doing it but the emotional part is just soooo sooo slow with a bad past and all. it literally took forever for the MCs to be together. inter-connected stories of a few hosts who knew each other.

physical: takes forever ⁞ emotional pacing: super slow too
seme inlove with the uke for the longest of time.
i keep on saying 'poor guy...' if you want to see how long he has been suffering, read the prequel dekiru otoko.
WARNING: this type of uke is not for everybody.

ohhh this adorable heart-pincher!
this story is so precious and pure i could puke flowers. there's the obvious tension and it makes the anticipation build up. story is slice of slife and relaxed. so relaxed it took them forever to actually had sex. like seriously!.

a salaryman story who had a depressive main character. good thing about the mc is his newfound inspiration and desire to change.
For a 5-chap. story, the relationship pacing is nice and gentle yet matured matching the socially awkward adult uke.

slow paced, even the uke got crazy from impatience. beautiful a-list slice of life school romance story. they are both tall, almost the same height and both are quite somber. no cutesy cutesy and i like that the most.

genre: slice of life, adults.
length: 14 chaps + extras. completed
beautiful and quite realistic story of a bogged down straight single father and a gay man. they actually started bad and it's beautiful how these two strangers slowly became something more to each other.
