Episode 1: Xeno calling Suika Dr. Suika. XD

Senkuu and Xeno geeking out over the rocks ahah.

With stainless steel, they can make canned food now.

There's nothing Taiju and Maya can't do together with strength now.

They're splitting into teams, Taiju is going to where Yuzuriha is!

Chrome crying, what a sweet boy. :')

It makes me happy that Gen goes where Senkuu goes.

Now that I know what Why-Man's messages really meant, it's still just as scary. 'Do you wanna die'!!

I love the ending art style!!

Episode 2: Animated Ryuusui and Francois getting excited over olive oil. xD

...I just realized that wherever these subtitles come from, they're not doing Gen's speech quirks (goisu, jima de and baiya).

Kohaku learning to dance, that's nice. Chelsea totally failing;;

Before this I didn't know India was known for their math...

Chelsea's 'HELL' letters making a comeback lol

Sai is up next!!

Episode 3: So was Ryuusui just guessing that Sai would be at Nanami University or did he ever look for him there before?

Ryuusui's face when looking at Sai. X'D And hearing Sai's pigyaaah! omg

It's scary/sad to think about Sai's mom considering his dad and Indian culture. :/

Really hard to see Sai realize there's no PCs and won't be for a long time...I totally get it, that would be my very first concern too and I would not handle it well.

🌈Webcomic Check-in: "19 Days" ep. 100-121

2026-05-15T14:23:08Z

[A Guide to 19 Days and Recap] [Previous]

Chapter 100-102: Intense! Jian Yi is sad Xixi genuinely finds him irritating then sees the girl crushing on Xixi and says he'll give Xixi the love letter if she agrees to stay away from him from then on.

I wonder why Jian Yi acts so dumb around Xixi if he knows it pushes him away?

Chapter 103-109: Oh right, that dark-haired guy who seems to be friends with Jian Yi is He Tian from the cover right?

Was Jian Yi's dad in an accident?? And then someone happened to his mom? Xixi was the one to comfort him

Dude, why're you being homophobic Jian Yi, you're in love with a guy...

Chapter 114: Xixi was so concerned when Jian Yi screamed only to be told 'get the bug off my ****'!1' X'D

So it's Jian Yi's birthday, Xixi took him up high to overlook the stars and lights of the town then brought out a sparkler.

Is Jiang Yi going to call him Ah-Xi from now? And what was he going to say? "If I..." maybe if "I I said I liked you..."

Chapter 115-116: Lmao He Tian getting up in Jiang Yi's business so Jiang Yi tries it back, it does not go well.

Oh, it's the other short-haired guy from the cover! He Tian's love interest?

Chapter 117: Did I know Xixi's full name was Zhan Zhengxi??

Chapter 118-119: Something happened between He Tian, Jiang Yi and the redhead, Jiang Yi was caught by Xixi punching a tree because he was going to fight the readhead??

Chapter 120-121: "I didn't think you'd be so fit" He Tian the guy you're talking about it scrawny af wdym;;

What is Jiang Yi depressed about? 😭

I love how in both these chapters He Tian gets hit by the two's antics.

My comments:

Kashiwagi Brothers' Love Affair: After Haru confesses to his big brother Aki, he stops growing and can't remember what Aki told him in reply. This was okay, it was hard for me to believe Aki's turnaround. I liked the idea. 3/5 stars

30 Years Old, with a Complicated Virginity: 30 years of virginity makes you a wizard trope. Mutual unrequited love made is so both remained virgins. One can make flowers, the other rainbows. I did not enjoy the whole 'the one who puts it in loses their virginity' and 'one of us has to give in and be the bottom' drama. The part where they talked about training their libido was hilarious though. 0.5/5 stars

Senpai's Lipcream: Student x student, one becomes close to the popular boy who always rejects girls. It was cute and sweet. 3/5 stars

Summary: Kuroda Kaede, Alias "Sebastian" lives fulfilling days working as the butler for Japan's leading trading group, Sugasaki Trade Holdings. His only source of headache is the sole heir of the Sugasaki group, his young master, the hikikomori gamer, Tominosuke Sugasaki. Although knowing that this sort of hikikomori lifestyle should not be allowed to continue, Sebastian continues to give in and spoil his cute young master.

One day, Sebastian was summoned by the master and was kicked out to the streets with Tominosuke with the parting words "Do not return until you have made 1 million yen"......?!?!

My comments: I like how their identities were stripped down and built back up by the end. The side-characters were really interesting, I wonder if they're in the story this manga was adapted from? This had an interesting setting (they're homeless for a while) and I liked the frank look at hosting and it's reality. I also liked the tenderness of the master/servant relationship, especially the master side, he's not your typical seme for sure.

Oku-san's Daily Fantasies"

Takatsuki Noboru, 2007

MangaUpdates
MyAnimeList
Chill Chill

Summary: Oku-san is a normal office worker who has one joy in life, to fantasize about his local deliveryman, Sudou-kun. To feed his fantasies and his desire to see Sudou-kun, Oku-san habitually shops online filling his room with useless and sometimes very erotic things. It’s all pretty harmless until one day his neighbor Yokoshima finds out about his secret hobby. Caught between two hot guys -- at least in his mind -- will Oku-san be able to fantasize his way out of this one?

My comments: The title is a play on the character Oku's name and the word 'housewife'. You'd think by the cover this could be a love triangle or threesome, but Oku's (hilarious) fantasies of Sudou-kun stay as just that, and it seems his nuisance of a neighbor Yokoshima will stay just a nuisance but there's a hint that something more could develop between he and Oku.

Honestly disappointing ending, actually there was no ending, Oku continues to fantasize and at the end he's like 'huh why did my heart thump at Yokoshima' and then it ended after a few silly chibi comics. If you just want some funny yet somehow sexy fantasies and aren't concerned with a concrete ending I would still recommend it I guess but I was left wanting.

Summary: 1-4) Yasukuni is the heir of a distinguished family, one that prizes masculinity and stoicism. He also happens to be crazy about one of his private instructors, Kiyo. Among the many lessons Kiyoi gives him is the art of sexual pleasures. However, Yasukuni wants Kiyo to make love with him earnestly, not just as a form of instruction.

5-7) Inappropriate Love

7.5) Freetalk

My comments: Not what I expected! This is a master/servant age gap story. Yasukuni's dad reveres manliness above all else and Kiyo is there to tutor him, care for him and teach him how to be proper as a man,.

Kiyo seems straight-laced but he uses the excuse of training Yasukuni to be intimate with him. Moreover, he seems to be the top at first, but when the time comes, he bottoms for Yasukuni.

The whole 'when I become a real man' thing got annoying and 'I can't moan because it's not manly'. Just do it how you want! At least Yasukuni realized this too, but we don't even get to see Kiyo finally be on top in the end.

Great top enjoyment expressions. 7/10 stars

Inappropriate Love: Teacher x student and a love triangle with the student's stepbrother. DNF, very pushy teacher and kinda instalove.

Art: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Rereadable: 🇳

Content warnings:

Story 1: Attempted rape/sexual assault, implied attraction to a minor (Kiyo says he's been waiting to do it with Yasukuni for 10 years, since Kiyo was a child)

Summary: Emi Kobayashi, an ordinary girl who loves otome games, wakes up and finds herself as Remilia, the villainess of the otome-game app "The Star Maiden and the Knight of Salvation." Emi scrambles to avert the destruction of the world and her own downfall!In spite of her efforts, the heroine of the Star Maiden, who is also a reincarnated person, strikes at her, and Emi is accused of trying to kill the heroine in addition to breaking the engagement. Instead of Emi, who lost consciousness due to the shock, Remilia, who was watching over her from inside, wakes up and takes revenge on the heroine and her former fiancé, the second prince, who hurt the lovely Emi.
My comments: Starts with the typical engagement annulment/accusatory heroine scene but the twist is that the villainess is still inside the body and takes back over once the reincarnated girl's consciousness faints from the shock. Also, the heroine is reincarnated as well.

I really enjoyed that Remilia got to see Emi's memories and feel the love she had in her life and it helped Remilia even though her body got stolen, and she ended up loving Emi. I've never felt so pained by the villainess' downfall before and you could feel it through the real Remilia as well and makes you badly want revenge.

It feels like the plot is really getting started after Remilia is forced to go live in their country estate and I'm excited to see what happens next after contacting the demons.

I saw someone mistake this for a GL but sadly it is not, there is romance later apparently. Remilia isn't interested in romance at all so maybe it'll be with Emi even though she's still unconscious?

Summary: Ryou and Zen are two men who hate to lose—especially to each other. From high school rivals to rival co-workers, these two men have always been locked in fierce competition. They've competed over grades, sports, and even the number of Valentine's chocolates received! And now that they're salesmen at the same company, their rivalry has reignited. One night, while out for drinks, the two begin arguing about who's more experienced in love. Suddenly, their newest competition is set: the winner is whoever makes the other fall in love with them first! But will this competition of hearts really lead to a win or something far more complicated?

My comments: Two idiot competitors bet on who can make the other fall in love first. Through flashbacks we see how they met and started competing until the biggest competitions starts. This story was really cute and sexy overall, I'm glad the conclusion to the bet didn't drag on.

break: Between work being so busy and a new character entering the picture, insecurity and jealousy sets in and drives a wedge between the two. I love how the problems were dealt with and it made me fall in love with these two more. They're so sexy and cute now that they're opening up more than ever!

Futami's role was hilarious. "I regret bein' the spice that strengthened your relationship." 🤣

Chapter 9: Sarasa and Hayato get kidnapped by pirates, their chief is a badass lady although she's a slaver. Kaku is there though!

Lmao of course Shuri taught his messenger bird to praise him.

Never thought we'd get secret penpals with the enemy in this, so now they can keep in contact outside of hot springs lmao.

Sarasa fought and won against Chacha the chief so now the pirates work for her! And it's effective immediately, the Shoujou clan found their hiding spot...

Chapter 10: Shidou is backing up the Shoujou. He said he counted Ageha as one of his close friends lmao. I hope Ageha gets to go back with Sarasa.

Those poor women and children on the ship, Shidou ordered their murder but they drowned and got trampled first. T_T

Ageha and Chacha know each other, of course they do.

Chapter 11: Sarasa got to the Shoujou's cannon on time and shot at the Fuujin, now the Red King faction think Shoujou joined with Tatara.

The location of the real Suzaku sword has been revealed.

I was so glued to my screen this chapter!

Chapter 12: Shidou's wife has guts I'll give her that.

Nice flashback to Shidou and Shuri's childhood, if they were the good guys I'd feel more. "Now and always he provides the canvas. So I can paint my kingdom."

Meanwhile someone attacked a European ship claiming to be Tatara's man. :/ Union ships are now attacking Suou.Shuri realizes it wasn't Tatara but his brother setting him up. He destroys his own ship in apology to the Europeans.

The irony that Shuri's letter is what cheers Sarasa up when she's on the run from Shidou, who Shuri had to back off from helping against her. I love that the bird relayed 'Shuri snot' to him.

Scatter ashes, leave no marker where you plant it
So the hoardes will be disbanded

Manga Check-in: "D.Gray-Man" v19 ch182-188

2026-05-09T01:56:21Z

[Previous]

Chapter 182: Allen stabs himself with his own weapon to stab the Akuma, it's only supposed to hurt Noah and Akuma so he thinks he's fine but nope, it affects him too. But then his appearance changes and the Akuma says "Noa...", the Akuma sees this fiery creature before it's killed.

Chapter 183: How did that nun survive. Glad she's not evil though. Timothy and Emilia joined up with the Order. She has the guts for it. I guess the nun had to go away for safety too, who will run the orphanage now especially with Emilia gone?

Chapter 184: Allen has a nightmare about getting stabbed when Mana shows up, though he's calling him the wrong name - Nea probably. Allen wakes up as Nea I guess? But Lenalee jolts him out of it. According to Link 'an immodest state for a lady' is...their outer thigh showing?

Chapter 185: Kanda looks really good with his hair down.

Lol Allen sparring Marie who has one arm in a sling.

Timcanpi sleeping on Link's head. :')

I understand Allen's feelings on the souls the akuma were made with. Thinking about them just disappearing and not going back into the cycle to be reincarnated or be at peace is too sad.

Marie pointing out how similar Allen and Kanda are haha. Guess Kanda feels the same way about the souls? Or is it just because they're both stubborn.

So the mysterious group of people are called 'Crow' and they have some kind of dark aura and their power reacts to innocence like akuma do?

Haha I love how everyone was instantly there surrounding Allen. But Allen still called them slow. X'D

I'm sorry but why are the Crow group so ugly. Oh, so they're half akuma via 'biological generation'.

Kanda is involved with a tragedy that happened 9 years ago...

Chapter 186: Kanda was created in the 'synthetic principal project' nine years ago and central forced it on Chen. The Chan, Renee and Epstein families were involved.

Lou Fa is right, winning by creating abominations/using people, it's no longer about survival but inhumanity imo.

Chapter 187: A new Noah has been reincarnated after 35 years named 'Demon Eye Wisely'.

Something is up with the scar Allen gave Tyki?

Well shit, the Noah are attacking everyone. 😭

Chapter 188: Geeze, if that Alma Karma has any kind of sentience, his life was brutal. Oh, he was friends with Kanda and Kanda doesn't know he's 'alive'... "We made them fight to the death!"

I don't want anything to happen to Johnny again. T_T

🌈BL Manga Check-in: "Sekai de Ichiban Kawaii!"

"Sekai de Ichiban Kawaii! /
You Are the Cutest In the World!"

Furuya Chiruko, 2019

MangaUpdates
MyAnimeList
Chill Chill

Summary: Hajime, a high school boy with a rugged appearance, had his first love. Yoshita, his childhood friend, is far more delicate and beautiful than any girl.

One of Yoshita's hobbies is uploading photos of himself in drag to social media. Hajime, disliking the idea of Yoshita being seen in such a compromising state by an unspecified number of people, asks him to only dress in women's clothing in front of him.

Yoshita's cross-dressing appearance was far more alluring than Hajime had imagined, and it made his heart flutter.

Before he knew it, Yoshita's crotch was bulging--!?

A book packed with everything that makes a boy "cute".

My comments: Childhood friends to lovers, cute uke-like seme who likes to crossdress and supportive childhood friend. At first Yoshita was doing it because he liked cute things and the attention, but when Hajime gets involved it turns into an erotic thing.

I didn't like when they had sex the first time, it was so vague that Yoshita was penetrating Hajime, I was literally like 'what is happening' until midway.

It was cute how they found each other cute even during erotic moments.

Overall I'd say it was 60% sweet, 40% erotic.

Story: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Characters: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Spice Level: 🌶🌶🌶🌶

Art: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Rereadable: 🇳

My rating: 7.3/10
