Meguru Ueno is not a stranger in this site, being the writer of Hajimete no Gal, a famous work of fiction about gyarus in a relationship and Gal-sen, about the same topic. This is what happens when he crosses the line and writes doujinshi. If you're here for boobs or for dark skinned girls, you're in for a treat. There's really no real story here, not even time to build one, but you can see the gyaru teasing personality that is characteristic in Ueno's works, but with a twist: since it's a doujin, they actually do go all the way.

The girls are cute, the sex ... is unique for his works, you get exactly what you're searching for. As as fan of Ueno's dumpster fires i loved it, and so will you.

It's not reinventing the wheel: it's your plain vanilla wholesome school romcom SoL.

No frivolous drama, no pointless turnarounds, just boy loves girl, girl loves boy, story progresses in a cute way for them to be together forever in the end.

There's only two characters, and they're well developed enough so you can take a liking and relate to both somehow. You've been a teenager, you've been in their shoes.

Art is really something else and makes the show even better. We can see Akino Sora really put their heart into this work.

It's a short manga so it makes for a good afternoon or evening read ... for when you're feeling down.

When people talk about Sekime-San, it's really hard to not draw comparisons to another romcom with a similar premise: Komi-san wa Comyuushou Desu. But have you ever wondered how would it be to read Komi-san without the pointless unnecessary drama and annoying side characters? if so, you'll finally find solace in this manga.

Although sometimes it can feel rushed, it's extremely objective and it works well the way it was intended to: the inocence of a recent couple, discovering themselves as they go.

As stated, Sekime-san has no "will they, won't they?", they're a couple from chapter one, and the show is about how they'll deepen their ... relationship. As the story progresses you'll find yourself more close to the characters and rooting for them. Their families are also great assets to the plot, and both being extremely supportive of their relationship.

If you're looking for lighthearted fun, no drama and a good read to ease your pain, Sekime-san is for you.

I hope they pick this up eventually for an anime series.

DISCLAIMER: This manga is LOUD, EXTREMELY LOUD.

When you hear of romance manga, as unique as it might be, it rarely goes away from "guy spends time with girl, guy falls in love with girl, guy goes out of his way so girl can be with him"

Well, Do Chokkyuu Kareshi x Kanojo is not like this like AT ALL.

The romance progression is fast, we see them middle series as a couple doing wild sex (as the show calls it), and it doesn't let you breathe for a single minute, either when it about the side characters, or how they're discovering things about themselves as ... the relationship progresses.

I've seen many criticism about the show's humor, that it's "telling the same joke over and over again", while it might be right, you signed for it, if "The Office" for an example suddenly stopped with the cringe humor and started doing random observational comedy everyone would start calling it garbage and begging for it to be canceled on the spot. It works the way it was intended to.

You'll find yourself rooting for the mcs, for the side characters, everyone is likeable. Art is on point, and it works perfectly in sync with the story.

Give it a shot, you won't regret it. It's short, and it's perfect.

"I'm not a woman, i'm a mother."

These were Yuzuki's words before turning him down for the first time.

Being a single mom, having to work two jobs to provide for a kid that has no father, you just won't have time to hang around and date. I should know better, i was that kid as well.

This manga is not necessarily about a guy falling for a single mother, it's more about her capability of moving on while being respectful and glad for her past, while losing fear of what lies ahead in the future.

Our MC doesn't fall behind, it's hard for anyone to have to ... take a step back in life so he could go forward in the future, both for his sake and for his goals of love and professional life, the series shows and outstanding growth of him from a spoiled brat to a responsible man able to have a family of his own.

The art is really simple, but really does the job. Same as the side characters, that are charismatic and likeable and help to drive the plot forward whenever needed.

If you read this to the end, give this series a try, and you'll be reading arguably the most realistic romance manga ever to date.

Human relationships are complicated.

The manga shows them from an unique angle, where although timid one is extremely eager to always do something, while the other acts calm, sometimes even cold i'd say, but one ends up falling for the other.

Unlike your average romance things actually happen, and it shows us how the perks of adult life, work, college and such meddles in our love life, sometimes even ourselves and how we are used to leave some things unsaid.

The art is not really something else but it's extremely on point and helps to tell the story. Characters are unique and each have their own ... unique style and personality traits. The couple of mcs are extremely deep up to the point you feel anxious on your stomach for them.

You read it expecting something easy-going and end up relating to everything they do, and wondering how your decisions are shaping your life. It's just flawless.

In Mexico, there used to be a tabloid called ¡Alarma!, where they put graphic pictures of dead bodies on crime scenes on the front cover. People used to buy it because as atrocious as it is, they just couldn't stop looking.

What does this have with the subject of Lust Geass? It's exactly the same. It's a complete trainwreck. But yet, you can't stop looking.

It looks initially like your average harem, mc is in love with a girl, makes a demon bind her to him forever but plot makes him fool around with everything that moves, but then there's a huge amount of random twists, new ... contracts, and even NTR. Author somehow tried to fix the ending by offering a wholesome path, but it really didn't work after all we seen.

We have the saving grace of nice artwork and hot girls and hot scenes of intercourse, but that doesn't cut for all the crapshow Lust Geass offer to you.

Not worth your time. Or anyone's time. And if you're that into NTR you wanna check it out anyway, don't. Try Tsuyatsuya's works.

It's a very straightforward story of a teenager that although he's poor now, can't live without his old otaku habits, so he needs to learn to cope with both. Although not necessarily new, it's another concept when it comes to gyaru manga, and waaaay more believable and relatable than any other one in it's genre (the girl doesn't throw herself in the arms of our lead, she doesn't even see him as a romantic interest, so far they're not even really friends). The art is extremely on point, both MCs have outstanding chemistry, and so far are well round and developed. The series has shown ... us a lot in so few entries, even though it's a new series, it has extreme potential to be a big thing among it's niche.

This was surprisingly... educational?

Although it have mild ecchi it's only goal is to show how sex works as a whole.

For someone written by a japanese man this deals with extremely sensistive topics to their society like all aspects of sex like threesomes, fetishes in general, abuse, cheating, even being transgender, all of them which are considered taboos even for today's standards, let alone in the 90s, when this started.

It also deals with all factors surrounding the sex, not only sex itself, like virginity, psychological factors, how sex is being a teenager and being past your 50s, and of course love.

The story is also quite ... pleasant, showing everyday stuff and how we should deal with it, in a very honest and easy to relate way.

Art is really 90ish, but really good, especially when it comes to the action.

I really wished i had a Futari Ecchi when i was a teenager and needed all of those advice when feeling insecure about sex. Give it a try.

After reading up to the weekly releases i'm honestly surprised.

Among that many ecchi romcoms, Kuzuhana-chan really stands out.Behind that mountain of pantyshots and the many boobs we have some substance. Not that is a drama show that will change your life, but you'll enjoy the adventures of Saotome trying to survive in an hostile environment.

The art is really good, backgrounds are eh but the girls are something else, the author really put on effort to make sure the hot looks hot. The story is not the focus, but it's well rounded, the characters are likeable and the girls are hot. You can find ... yourself identifying with the main character and rooting for him to get out of the troubles he gets into. Plus we have a tough but shy girl protecting him, it's everything you could've ask for.

Chapters are short, story is nice and the girls are hot. There's no way you can go wrong with this one.
