    Yorimichi – Kazuki Rai

    Carefree Kenta fell in love at first sight with a girl he saw at the cultural festival who turned out to be a straight-laced boy named Makoto.  

    If you think it’s an anxious Kageyama and a taller Hinata, that’s because the author creates Haikyuu doujinshi. Cute and fluffy with realistic gay angst.

    Killing Stalking – Koogi

    Yoonbum, a scrawny quiet boy, has a crush on one of the most popular and handsome guys in school, Sangwoo. One day, with Yoonbum’s obsession towards Sangwoo reaching its peak, Yoonbum decides to enter Sangwoo’s home. But what he saw inside was not the Sangwoo he had dreamed of.
