MANGA: Room Share
Room Share – Isino Aya
Two guys living in one apartment. Which kind of things would they share with each other, which ones would they keep to themselves? Would they laze around together, eat together, maybe cook together or even sleep together..? Find out for yourself with this heart-pounding room share.
While I would have very much prefer it that this should be purely shounen-ai, this manga is downright hilarious. The artwork is also kind of nice and best of all are the magic moments that bring a secret smile to Oohara’s face.

That is, until upon further observation, Seri realises that the tall stranger is in reality, a painfully shy and gentle young man named Keito.

Shousuke always takes the role to comfort his best friend, Tomoki, who tends to fall in love and then gets dumped several times. One day, Shousuke was drinking with Tomoki and was listening to his whining as usual.

Shousuke got shaken up and kissed Tomoki without thinking…!? The day when an airhead, cry-baby man who easily falls in love, and a normal guy who has negative connotations about love became more than friends!
Only one chapter so far but I’m hooked. Laugh out loud hilarious and soooo cute! Wishing for more chapters for this manga

MANGA: Senpai
Senpai – Bikke
Fujinami Kou is a high school second-year who had lost his boyfriend, an upperclassman schoolmate, to a car accident an year previously. On the anniversary of Misumi senpai’s death, Kou is dispirited and contemplating skipping school. Kakitsubata Saki, a first-year, sees him and offers help, assuming that he’s ill. As Kou startles at the sight of Saki’s face and mentions that he resembles “the person I used to go out with”, the younger boy is instantly intrigued and resolves to discover his sorrowful, introverted upperclassman’s secret.
A semi-cute, semi-sweet, semi-dramatic story that could use more fluffy moments but still nice enough especially at the ending.

MANGA: Occupation to Beloved
Occupation to Beloved – Nakamura Asumiko
A continuation of the story of Kusakabe and Sajou as they enter the university and work on their dreams.
More cuteness and more fluff abound with the most adorable pairing ever in this sequel but the volume could definitely do without the other pairings and side stories.

MANGA: Shinkuu Yuusetsu
Shinkuu Yuusetsu – Bikke
In this country, every person has to be matched up with a partner. Partnerships are made around when you turn three or four. The doctors decide who gets paired together. One person acts as the ‘supplier.’ The other as the ‘receiver.’ It is impossible for a ‘receiver’ to continue to live without periodically being given power from the ‘supplier.’ And in the same way, it is imperative for a ‘supplier’ that a ‘receiver’ accept some of the power generated within their body. This ‘power’ can’t be made anywhere other than inside a ‘supplier’s own body… So for the ‘receivers,’ we ‘suppliers’ are completely indispensable….
With a plot that sets boys up to kiss, kiss and kiss, this manga conveniently delivers fluff, some drama and even a bit of girlxboy moments for for those who are into that sort of thing. Although it could use some more humor, the interconnected stories are still nice enough for your daily shounen-ai fix.
