Two Today! "Love/Knot" by Ishimaru Hiroko & "Furueru Yoru no Himitsugoto" by Ogura Muku (NSFW)

Guah. I so tired from working all day. But I also made a new discovery.
Apparently, sleeping on the floor is very nice. Not literally, but like traditional Japanese style, with a futon or mattress on the floor instead of a bed. I sleep very irregularly, so this is a nice change of pace.
So now I'm wide awake physically to be able to type this today. Besides my fingers hurting slightly. The computers weren't working for a little while, so I had to do some papers by hand. And then I was forced to pick up the violin again today. Oh wait, that's five days a week, nevermind. And piano. Oh wait again, that's everyday. Damn.

To make up for lost time these past couple days, I shall do two reviews in one post. *legasp* Can I really do that? What do you think? ...YES. This is my blog, so I shall have my way with it. In a non-sexual context. Sorry.

One: So I was browsing around, clicking random mangas here and there, and thought that some one-shots would be nice. Something adorable, and maybe funny too. Well, here's "Love/Knot" by Hiroko-sensei. It's cute and short. There's some sex scenes, obviously, but it's specifically drawn to not be about the sex, but the dorky, corny, shoujo-like love story that is halfway between shounen-ai and yaoi. Even other people who comment on the manga say so. So there's too many stories so summarize here, so check it out for yourself, okay? Trust me. There's a reason that it's name is here.

Two: Also looking around, I come across "Furueru Yoru no Himitsugoto" by Ogura-sensei, and seeing that I have read it before and thoroughly enjoyed it's adorableness, I decided to read again. The cuteness is a little bit much to handle, but not quite on the level of Junta-sensei-or-Junko-sensei-cute. Also a collection of four one-shots. Personally, I like the first story the best of course. The first one continues to the last bonus chapter at the end, so make sure you've read that too if you so plan on looking into this manga!
There's very little to see in terms of sex, but even the sexy-times are cute and non-explicit. So not much to worry about, but some people cannot handle seeing white-stuff-semen or an uke's sexy face, so I put the label there to be fair.

Wow. I didn't realize that both mangas were actually one-shots. Oops.
Oh well, I guess that kinda makes up for the past week or so.
So, I need to get a move on with life. Because my days consist of waking, working, eating, sleeping, yaoi, reviewing, and playing with my iTouch. #fujoushi-fudanshi-lifestyle
Okay, I'll stop it with the hash-tags. #NOPE
I actually don't have a Twitter or Tumblr account, but I follow artists on Tumblr regularly. So that explains why.

"Nar Kiss" by Nekono Mariko (NSFW)

Hello again, and welcome t-!! *shot*

Well, I got a night to myself, and so I shall waste spend it on my manga blog. Yah. *cheers*
Heard of the manga"Love Stage!!" yet? It's one of the top yaoi mangas out there, along with "Junjou Romantica" and the such. Recently, in the past year there have been rumors going around that the mangakas would make an anime for "Love Stage!!". Finally, in the most-recently-updated-chapter-which-was-today's-chapter, Chapter 19, they finally announced that they will make an announcement in the next chapter. Not very helpful, but exciting any way. Why? That means that the anime is finally official, and it should come out anytime in the next year! *throws confetti* I preferably LOVED "Love Stage!!" 'cause I got a good kick out of it, but the last page of the recent chapter made me squeal like a 13-year-old girl over Justin Beiber. (NOPE.)

Again with the ongoing mangas, I went with "Nar Kiss" today for time's sake, since that was the only yaoi I actually got through today. I don't know why, but I ended up re-reading "Usotsuki Lily" by Komura Ayumi-sensei just for the shounen-ai jokes, and the hot-guys-that-have-feminine-faces-that-according-to-a-BBC-Sex-ID-test-says-I-am-attracted-to. I am also "averagely" masculine. Huh. Interesting.

So, "Nar Kiss" is basically a title-summary. It's about a boy whose family lineage has been known to pass on the curse of narcissism from Greek Mythology, and suffers from it terribly by having a split personality along with it. One day, the most popular-for-his-looks-and-charm and gentle guy in college finds out about his "secret" accidentally, and shit happens, and they happen to find out that kissing can prevent the narcissism personality from surfacing, so they become friends with benefits. (I don't think those are the right words, but that's one way to put it.)

There's only four chapters out so far, the fourth updated just yesterday. But like I say, there's always a reason why I would bother putting it's name out there to hear. "Nar Kiss" is not very well-known, and not appreciated until it is read. So go read it. There's masturbation too, so that's why it's NSFW. Just to be on the safe side. My rule of thumb: If I can see dick, I click "NSFW". :)

Here's ya go:

I'm slowly becoming more flowery, aren't I? [suuuure, let's say that. #hearthatsarcasm] (Shut up. Sorry, that was someone who-needs-not-to-be-named looking over my shoulder.)
So, with that, cyclamens and sweetpeas. (Go Google It if you need to.)

"Hana No Mizo Shiru" & "Hana No Migoro Ni" by Takarai Rihito (NSFW)

So I took a half-day off of working today, and gave myself a well-deserved break in a little while.
*cries tears of joy*

So today's topic was something I put off on semi-hiatus for a short time, and finally came back to it today.
"Hana No Mizo Shiru" or Only the Flower Knows (not to be confused with the popular novel, Only the Ring Finger Knows) is basically a bunch of coincidences and chance meetings that lead to closer relationship that eventually blossoms (no pun intended) into a beautiful love. The End.
And then it continues kinda in "Hana No Migoro Ni". With the boys as adults. But still have the heart of kids. Not really much different from reality, I suppose.

Yeah, I'm really out of it today, since I got three hours(?) of sleep last night. I couldn't pass out right away, and when I finally looked at the clock, it was 3:05. I wake up at 6:00 everyday. Amazing I'm still here, right? But Rihito-sensei's mangas always brighten my day, and this one thrusted a ball of sunshine into my face when the last pages came in the sequel chapters.
Sex scenes, simply put, were adorable. The uke in this manga is just.... too cute to be put into words. And of course, the innocent uke must have a gentle seme to make a cute story, so yeah.

Well looky what I found:
