Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #Misunderstanding(10)

A very sweet little story in that true ‘slice of life’ style. Fresh from school in the country and newly independent in the big city, the uke in this story is adorably clueless about so many aspects of adult life. Despite this, he has an admirable core of determination and strives so hard. I found it sad because his parents recently died, his sister married and moved away, and he had no phone or way to keep in contact with her or any of his old friends. He really was like an abandoned puppy and there is no place like the city to really feel alone. But this guy persisted, got a job and caught the attention of his good looking and surprisingly protective neighbour. What followed was a sweet story of new feelings, confusion, misunderstandings and love.

Cute little oneshot

3 super cute stories with some characters with quirks or fetishes and the special guy who loved them. There was a crybaby, a germaphobe with OCD and a guy with a leg fetish. Sweet characters and nice art, these were really enjoyable

An aloof anaesthesiologist and a sociable pharmaceutical rep mistakenly misread the cues the other send and end up having a night of mind blowing sex. When their mistake is bought to light, suddenly it doesn’t seem to be a mistake after all for the Rep. The rest of the story has him ardently pursuing the man he has fast fallen for. There is plenty of hot sex, a manipulative ex and the uke’s fears to handle, but this seme is persistent and very much in love.

A cute trio of stories that deal with insecurities between couples. The first pair had been going out for years but they had some communication issues to resolve about whether they were just sex friends or more. The second story was more enjoyable for me, with a new romance starting between MCs who were still exploring the boundaries of their new friendship with each other. These guys, especially the seme, were very sweet and likeable. The third story was between long time friends that were faced with a surprise confession once a lie was revealed. Very adorable pair, again with a seme who was extremely likeable.

What an adorable pair of fluffy sweethearts. Tanigawa is the super clumsy student with his own set of band-aides at the nurses office. He accidentally wears his sisters underwear to school only to be spotted by the serious minded Maysuyuki. This started a chain reaction of misunderstandings, bumps, accidental kisses and confused feelings as these two opposites became close. Both boys are very sweet and genuine making this full of cute moments and fluffy feelings.

Tall and rather gloomy, Miike has fallen for a girl from a neighbouring school who catches his train. He hands her a love confession note but in confusion over the name, she gives it to her older brother, Hifumi. So begins their romance based on a misunderstanding. The outgoing Hifumi has fallen hard for Miike and determinedly romances him with kisses and affection. But Miike feels guilty and tries to find the best moment for honesty. I thought Hifumi was a charming mix of confidence and uncertainty as he wooed Miike. He could boldly state that he wanted to make Miike his in one moment, and gently kiss his hands in another. A very sweet story overall.

Long time stalker Kawachi has been in love with his senpai Yuto Shinozuka since the third grade. Now in high school a year below Shinozuka, the tall and intimidating looking Kawachi has stumbled upon a secret about Shinozuka that has him entering a blackmail scenario with the guy he adores, much to their mutual dismay. That’s because besides being an obsessed stalker with a delinquent vibe, Kawachi is a soft hearted guy who feels awful for hurting Shinozuka, yet conflictingly is caught in his own web. When he sets out to make amends, Shinozuka is the one who is becoming conflicted as he starts to fall for his gentle stalker. Lots of fun in here especially as Kawachi felt genuine remorse for his cruelty, and his sweet persistence was really endearing.

Kazumasa and Yutaro Tsutsumi are two adorable peas in a pod. Meeting each other due to a big misunderstanding, they share an insecurity. Yutaro has scary eyes that have held him back from making friends, getting a girlfriend, and even holding down a job. The older Kazumasa has a scary face that often has him being mistaken for a yakuza despite being a really decent and kind guy. Their scary faces form an unusual bond of understanding and it doesn’t take long for thoughts of each other to fill their heads. Still, the older Kazumasa has some extra problems holding him back, but you need to read to find out those. Beautiful art, hot and sexy scenes, this is a recommended read.

Light hearted and sweet, this story followed 1st year students Akai Ryuuichi, the terrifying looking delinquent whose resting face could scare a person to tears, and Saki Momota, regular high school girl whose 1st confession bombed and was overheard by Ryuuichi. Looking beneath the surface, unexpected kindness, friendship and love, this was a very fluffy and innocent tale of falling for someone unexpected.
