muse ✨'s manga / #Actors(6)

A straight-up love story between two actors "practicing" romance who them fall in love, with bonus forced separation and So Much Blushing! Nothing complicated here, just light fluff and very pretty characters - like Rihito Takari level pretty.

The continuation of Katou and Iwaki's story, at least a decade after the first. They're still acting, still in love, still hot as hell, still having spectacular sex! One day they'll call each other by their first names during sex and I'll die happy. Anyway. In this new arc, Iwaki learns he has a grown biological son, and we see some obstacles thrown at his relationship with Katou, but they make it over the hurdles together. I wish I'd had this sort of bond when I was married. We had nothing like this. This is the sort of bond and respect I'd want from a partner, if I ever have another one. The scanlation team switched because people were uploading to reader sites against their wishes. A new group has picked up the series, but it's a shame people were disrespectful. :-( ETA: On March 8, 2019 there was an update where Iwaki called him Youji while they were play-arguing and it led to sex, so I can die half happily. 5/25/20 - Read a spoiler (LOOK AWAY IF YOU DO NOT WANT SAD THINGS IN YOUR EYES) that says Katou dies in the final chapter. I'm not sure the teams will bother to translate that; I'm not sure I'd want to see it. I have loved this couple. What a tragic ending, but hearing about it out of context, I can't judge it properly.

The lonely heir to a hospital meets an actor from a traveling troupe and discovers freedom.

An actor who is all too aware of RPF fandom provides copious fanservice for Twitter and does eventually start dating his co-star.

This was really nice! An aging Japanese actor is flown to Monte Carlo for a role in a film where he plays the older lover to a young French actor. A oneshot, surprisingly moving.
