Yane's Manga

My rating: 7,5/10
It's pretty unique with "hair" as the main theme. I like the uke, he's strong-willed in spite of his internal struggle. It's a light read, they're so cute together. But they fall in love fast. Don't worry about the seme's face, they all wear masks in his world.

ISEKAI, HAIR, ROYALTY
A young man (uke) with a complex about his lack of body hair gets teleported into another world after wishing to live somewhere where people accept his body. He lands in a prince's (seme) bathtub in a country where everyone is covered in fur. Even though the others call him a monster, the prince takes an interest in him and takes him in.

My rating: 10/10
This is such a beautiful story, it will always hold a special place in my heart. The themes are family, loss, dreams and the sacrifices you make to achieve them. The characters are complex and especially the seme has a character growth. Him coming from a special community of people who live like their ancestors lifts this to another level and allows the story to discuss the question "What is happiness?"

RELIGION, BAR, PROSTITUTE
An Amish boy (seme) living in America in the 1980s travels to a bar for Rumspringa, a traditional coming-of-age period for members of the Amish community where the adolescent leaves the enclosed religious community to take part in the outside world. There, Theo meets a waiter (uke) who abandoned his dream to be a dancer.

My rating: 7,5/10
Obsessive and dangerous semes always catch my attention, but this story here lacks the angst even though the seme is described as a psychopath. It's an entertaining read with a mentally strong and intelligent uke but it's a bit disappointing. I didn't get captivated.

MAFIA, OBSESSIVE SEME
A small-time money launderer (uke) has been doing business with a dangerous Russian mafia boss (seme) for a year now and can't seem to get away from him even though he wants to live a peaceful life. Things get more complex when people from his past appear once again.

My rating: 4/10
It's too short to enjoy. They just make out and the d**** look horrendous. The senpai is quite mean playing with his colleague's feelings like that.

OFFICE ROMANCE, TRAIN
An office worker is madly in love with his senior at work. While they ride the train together, he gets hard and his senior notices. But then the guy starts touching him.

My rating: 7/10
The art's pretty good but the romance is pretty rushed. They practically fall in love at first sight and then struggle to get their feelings across. I would've loved to get to know the characters better. But well, it's still a good read with even a bit of drama.

GAY BAR, "STRAIGHT" SEME
Exactly 2 years after his wife divorced him on Christmas, an office worker (seme) goes to a bar and gets drunk without realising that it's a gay bar. The bartender (uke) takes him home and they hook up. After that, the seme can't forget him.

My rating: 4/10
The set-up is good and the start caught my interest but then it gets really rushed. The romance starts with a random kiss and the confession surprised me just as much. It's like the author wanted to wrap it all up nicely and overdid it.

BIOGRAPHY, ACTRESS
An university professor and historian (FL) gets asked to write the biography of a famous actress by the woman herself. But the actress's son (ML), a man whose father is unknown to the public, is strongly against it.

My rating: 6,5/10
It's a cute story with a bit of drama mixed in. The plot isn't that special but it's well written so I enjoyed it. The uke is antisocial and aloof, the seme's extroverted and playful, quite the opposites. I wish the author would've made more of the unrequited love, it's dropped too easily.

SCHOOL LIFE, UNREQUITED LOVE
A high school student (uke) who has problems dealing with human relationships is secretly in love with his only friend. But then his playful classmate (seme) notices it and offers to help him bc he likes the uke.

My rating: 2/10
Idk, it's kinda boring. The smut isn't it for me (maybe bc of the art) and the uke's change of heart is too extreme to be convincing. He's just like "Well I held back all this time but whatever".

TENTACLES, HUNTER
Radan (uke), the greatest magical beast hunter in the kingdom, finally became lovers with Elliot (seme) who had been chasing him for 3 years. But bc the uke doesn't wanna have sex, the seme invites him to a little vacation to create the right mood. But then they're toyed with by a strange, yet erotic tentacle beast…

My rating: 6/10
The smut's good and there're a lot of sex scenes. The uke's so horny he only thinks about sex at first. They're all rather simple characters: a lewd and energetic uke and a serious seme. The seme's logic for becoming a rent boy's kinda dumb SPOILER: and they won't say how they can get money after quitting their job.

RENT BOY, LEWD UKE
A rent boy (uke) who chose the job bc he's addicted to sex still isn't satisfied and craves a huge dick. When he hears about his new popular coworker (seme), he wants to sleep with him. And the opportunity arises when a client asks them to do just that in front of him.

My rating: 7,5/10
The art's top-notch and overall it's pretty interesting. The smut's hot and I like the uke, he's strong-willed but also has a cute side. The seme is too composed all the time. He only gets emotional when it concerns the uke and he's pretty cold sometimes. And although they have a happy ending, the thing with him forcing the uke to marry him doesn't sit right with me. There's some grave drama included.

ROYALTY, ARRANGED MARRIAGE
A college student (uke) one day gets a letter telling him to come to a foreign land and marry their king like his grandpa promised. He goes intending to refuse but the king (seme) won't let him go and promises to make him fall for him.
