Yutaro lost his job and home due to his scary face, and he's on his way to get a new job through a friend. But the person he meets instead is Mizushima, a man who looks even scarier than Yutaro, who takes him to a hotel and proceeds to have sex, which Yutaro goes along with thinking Mizushima is a yakuza member. Turns out, Mizushima was there for a hookup with a surprisingly similar name, and he's just a flower shop owner. Still, Yutaro can't get Mizushima out of his head, so he tracks down his flower shop and ends up getting a job there and living there as well. This situation is all kinds of awkward, and it doesn't help that Yutaro is still totally horny for Mizushima after their first time. The story is interesting, but I don't like Yutaro as the male lead that much. Trigger warning: dubcon

Ch.1-3 - In this sequel to The Pure Knight's Shining Journey, Gael and Elcielas have saved the kingdom and are headed home, but although Elcielas is making his feelings quite clear, Gael isn't sure how he feels. No trigger warnings. Ch.4-6 - Side character Verna Bo comes to the elf forest on an errand from Gael and meets Fiyor, a blind elf whom the spirits love who instantly captivates him. Though Fiyor tries to maintain his distance due to the loss of his friend who left for the human world long ago, it gradually becomes clear that he and Verna are bound by something. Trigger warnings: mention of statutory rape/child grooming.

Former delinquent Mizuki fell in love with his husband, a child who comforted him after a fight, despite the twelve year age gap. Now, after a year of marriage, the two are lovey-dovey husbands, but Mizuki worries their sex life has cooled off, so he's trying his best to seduce Kotaro all over again. Meanwhile, Kotaro worries that Mizuki only wants him for his dick, so he's determined to make Mizuki love him without sex. A silly misunderstanding for a couple that is very much in love. No trigger warnings.

Azusa is the young boss of a yakuza clan who secretly stans the idol, Alto. One day he meets Alto at a bar and finds out that his cutesy persona is all a cover, and the real Alto is much more selfish, brash, and mouthy, but he's delighted nonetheless. Then Alto takes him to a hotel and practically rapes him, but tells him his real name is Kouichiro. After that, they become sex friends, then more, though things take a turn when Azusa's older brother returns from studying with the Italian mafia. Honestly, Azusa is very cute but the actual events of this story are whack. Trigger warnings: rape, lying/manipulation.

Harumi is a competent CEO and alpha, and Kazuma is his omega employee who cannot walk across a flat surface without tripping and landing right onto his boss due to his clumsiness. When Kazuma goes into heat, Harumi thinks he's done it on purpose to seduce him and goes along with it, but it turns out it was yet another accident. Still, that's enough for Harumi to realize his feelings, and he's no longer going to let Kazuma go, even if Kazuma's worried that their social spheres are worlds apart. Very much a comedy smut without much substance, but it's fine. Trigger warnings: dubcon(heat), attempted rape, noncon.

Flail is a knight afflicted by an aphrodisiac in a dungeon who tells his party to leave him behind. But when the smuggler Edda comes back, Flail is shocked by not only how powerful Edda really is, but how deep his feelings for Flail seem to really go. Trigger warnings: drug(aphrodisiac). Yogu is a friend of Edda's who is also a tentacle monster in charge of a dungeon, but he's been raising a boy named Levin who seems to have hit puberty lately, and now things are awkward between them. Trigger warnings: drug(aphrodisiac), incest themes(guardian), statutory rape(?), tentacles.

Yokomichi is an omega who always gets dumped for wanting to top, but this time he's found his perfect man, the company president Karasuma! Yokomichi uses Karasuma's limited understanding of the world as an excuse to spend time teaching him, but even once they start dating, things like an old friend and Arabian oil prince and their difference in statuses keep getting in their way. An interesting read with some nonstandard characters and some wacky nonsense going on. I was honestly more interested in the short beta x alpha romance between their friends, but then it just sorta ended. Trigger warnings: kidnapping, S&M, bondage.

Lyle (wildcat beastman) is a down on his luck actor who decides to take a vacation in Korea to turn his fortunes around and falls in love with the movie Amoeba(basically Parasite) on his way there. He signs up for a dating app and matches with a rabbit who he gets along great with, but when they meet, Park Kyu Suk, or Q as Lyle calls him, is much bigger than he pictured. He's still attracted to Q, and as the night goes on, Q admits that his rabbit nature makes it hard for him to last while topping, so Lyle decides to teach him everything with his body and goes way too far. Then he runs away, but they meet again in a way Lyle could have never seen coming. This is some crazy Parasite fanboy wish fulfillment, and I'm into it, except for the rape scene which I think the story could have done without. Trigger warnings: drunk intimacy, dubcon, somnophilia.
