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

Cute collection of one shots, nothing special but a nice way to pass the time.

Two great stories! The second was better, not necessarily because I liked the characters more or their story premise, but because it had more chapters and was developed further. I would have liked a couple of extra chapters for the first two, too, perhaps showing the two of them continuing at home. With that sweetly assertive student seme and his older, virgin uke, the author could have had some fun. Opportunities missed :(

I liked these stories :) The ukes were all sweet yet strong in their own ways.

Lol, clever.

Yuri and Kei were totally adorable in this sweet story. I loved the balance between the MCs with Kei seemingly cheerfully confident and extroverted and the cute but masculine Yuri whose protective instincts were stirred by the vulnerable lonely boy he saw inside Kei. I loved this feel good story with the beautiful art by a very talented mangaka.

A well written story with characters that stir your empathy, especially the 2 fathers. Their long lasting love is beautifully sad because they live a life where their own heart is denied in favour of duty and familial expectations. Their sons story was great but felt like it fell short of being complete. There was no mutual love, only a one sided one that was left feeling it was doomed to fail.

Trigger warning: Rape This manga was fantastic but it was a roller coaster for my emotions. At one moment it was sweet caring and growing feelings, then it was rape and trauma. We had MCs dealing with complex body issues that effect self esteem and confidence, bullying and all those more normal tricky school friendships. I did enjoy the story though, but there is a residual bit of sadness for the rape because no matter the reasoning or excuses made, it was a low thing to do.

Wagamama mo Kimi no Tame Nara Ikura Demo: Ch 1-4 Mahiro (omega) is enjoying his adolescence before his heat starts by being a free loving playboy. Serious student Yoneda’s (alpha) gaze follows Mahiro and he is confronted about his feelings with an offer to kiss the boy he likes. But something about Yoneda’s face and stealing his first kiss has Mahiro’s thoughts turning to him with increasing frequency. As these two ado guys start dating their relationship deepens to a true and loyal love. They were so good for each other, and I loved the communication and determination to work through any problems. A really sweet story. Itetsuku Kosen : Ch 5-6 Friends of Mahiro and Yoneda: Natsuki has reluctantly agreed to date playboy alpha Toujimori for one week under the agreement that when Toujimori is no longer interested at the end of the week, he will leave Natsuo alone forever. However, Toujimori’s interest doesn’t seem to be fading.. This was another adorable story with no nasty Omegaverse rape or omega abuse, plenty of adolescent angst and strong feelings and a sweet ending.

Cute loner girl is surprised that the plain girl who sits next to her in class is hiding her real self. The chapters are very short and repetitive and the characters don’t really interest me.

3 complete Omegaverse stories. Volume 1: My favourite pair. Omega Hiyoshi Tatsuru, is in highschool where he portrays himself as a beta. His goals are to marry a β woman one day and have a family. However, when he dropped his heat suppressants at school one day, his heat overwhelmed him in the presence of alpha Yamato from his neighbouring class. Each was overwhelmed by the pheromone response of alpha and omega and soon a friendship arose from sharing their time and support with each other. Vol.2: Alpha Amou Ren is a new highschool student with a keen interest in having sex with an omega in heat. When he notices the temporary modern Japanese history sensei, Maki Takahiko (24yo) being pressed for sex because of his heat, Ren boldly struts forth to offer his alpha services to “Omega sensei”. However, he was coldly rejected and told “I hate alphas like you the most!”. This story follows Ren as he grows up emotionally and falls for the sensei who has never had an alpha partner. Vol 3: Ever since high school, Omega Chiaki, and Alpha Tora, have been having no strings heat sex because Chiaki is unable to tolerate suppressants. When his heat comes Chiaki sends a message to Tora who always responds to the booty call, despite always having a girlfriend. It’s a dynamic that has lasted for years, but these two have never even really been friends or built a friendship. Despite that, their time together has forged stronger bonds than either realised, and it took another man being there for Chiaki for Tora to wake up to how he really felt.
