sadslime's manga / #Forbidden love(7)

(Ch 1-3) A kid raised by his grandparents falls in love with his cute uncle. A little too much comedy with not much substance, and the characters don't stand out. Trigger warning: statutory rape. (Ch 4-5) A failed confession from a kouhai to his senpai who got him into basketball leads to a 4 year long unrequited love with his friend and roommate, or so he thinks. This one is cuter and I like the relationship, especially how it progressed since high school. No trigger warnings.

Misaki and Kou grew up together in an orphanage as practically brothers, and now Misaki manages the place while Kou works as the Catholic priest there. But when Kou starts keeping secrets and Misaki starts to hear rumors that Kou might be getting paid to sell his body, how he sees their relationship begins to change. The story was fine, nothing special, and the translation wasn't the best. Trigger warning: forced confinement.

Tama is a servant who has come with her lady, Kikuko, for Kikuko's marriage into her husband Touma's house. However, Kikuko is frail, so her family has arranged for Tama to meet Touma in bed without his knowledge and bear his heir on Kikuko's behalf. But as Tama gets closer to Touma, the sense of betrayal she feels for both Kikuko and Touma starts to become too much. Trigger warnings: coercion, lying, sex work.

Tsubaki is an innocent high schooler who was raised by a wealthy family and a working mom, until one day his mom brings home her new, much younger boyfriend, Reiichi. Reiichi quickly blows past Tsubaki's initial reservations, and Tsubaki comes to think of Reiichi as a brother, until one day Reiichi kisses him. Tsubaki's mind is thrown into disarray, but when Reiichi confesses and says he'll break up with Tsubaki's mom and leave, Tsubaki realizes his feelings and chooses to be with Reiichi. The only problem is, Reiichi has been conning the family all along, and he's doing the same thing to Tsubaki. Or at least, that's what Reiichi wants to tell himself. A pretty messed up relationship, and it's absolutely bonkers that they act like the three could just be a happy family at the end, but it's an interesting read anyway. Trigger warnings: lying/manipulation, cheating, rape, statutory rape.

Kei(omega) knew from the moment he met his new stepbrother Kouki(alpha) that they were fated mates. Kei tried to hide it for years, even telling Kouki he was a beta, but when his meds stop working while his parents are away, the two wind up getting swept up in a passion that leaves them unable to let go of each other. The story for this one is fine, neither of the leads are standout, but the mom is insane. They act like she's redeemed at the end for suddenly deciding she does actually care about Kei when she's completely neglected him and actively verbally abused him this entire time. They really needed to spend more time on her character if they wanted to go for the happy family ending. Trigger warning: incest themes (stepbrothers), child abuse.

Akito loves his little stepbrother Iku, but Iku has been distant from him ever since middle school when he suddenly shot up in height. Now, Akito is feeling inferior about the size of his dick, so he buys a cream to make it bigger, but it backfires, and Iku ends up coming to help him out. It's awkward, but somehow, their relationship seems much better after, leaving Akito unsure how to proceed. Basically just a pseudo-incest smut story. Trigger warnings: incest themes, dubcon.

Unfortunately, he was quickly found by his stepbrother Souya, who he has a past with, and Souya wants to live together and won't take no for an answer. Trigger warnings: incest themes (stepbrother), rape, child abuse, stalker, violence. Ch.4-5 -Kaneshiro Jou was dumped by his longtime boyfriend who was seeing another man when he died, but he didn't mind since he didn't have much to live for. Unfortunately for him, God decided he needed to learn the value of life and sent him back, except he's very young now, and the only person who seems to have noticed this change is his subordinate, Arakawa Takami, who's had a crush on Jou for a long time. Trigger warning: cheating.
