Keigo Takami becomes Keigo Tokoyami via a kind mamayami who says he’s family.. Hawks mentors Hoshiko and she is so uncasual about it. Babyyami comfort character daydream. Mamayami is in hell. Her birds are so autistic. Broppy jumpscare.
Summary: Mizuno, the daughter of a mayoral candidate, is desperate to escape the suffocating pressure and scrutiny of smalltown life. Chayama, the heiress of the tea company Chayama-en, is adamantly walking down the path laid out for her, despite being forced to atone for her family’s apparent misdeeds. Yet in the bubble of the school’s third floor guidance counseling room-away from rumors, watchful eyes, and their feuding families-they’re simply Mizuno and Chayama, two teenagers who find comfort and hope in each other. But when the outside world tries to tear them apart, the two must find a way to protect their relationship and, more importantly, themselves…
Review: This was such a good read!!! They live in a hell hole and basically find solace in each other and it's just so good. I recommend this a lot! Do look up the trigger warnings for this.

This Monster Wants to Eat Me by Naekawa Sai
Summary: “I’ve come to eat you.” So softly utters the mermaid Shiori as she emerges from the sea and takes high school girl Hinako by the hand. Hinako lives alone in a town by the sea and possesses an unusually delicious body that is irresistible to nearby monsters. To ensure that she matures to the best condition, Shiori seeks to protect Hinako—all so that someday, she can devour every piece of her. What will become of Hinako’s feelings as this looming unjust death closes in on her…?
Review: I have so many thoughts about this manga! It's doomed yuri and has horror elements! The characters are also very well written! I highly recommend this! However I do recommend looking up the trigger warnings before reading this.

If We Leave on the Dot by Ayu Inui
Summary: Yukawa comes into the office and always hangs up her coat on the rack; most others just sling it over their chairs. That may be because Yukawa is proper, but maybe because she loves receiving handwritten notes from her coworker Mizuki. Until recently, Yukawa only knew Mizuki and her sweet vanilla scent from afar, but one day she was able to befriend her after a mix up with their coats. Since then, Mizuki communicates with Yukawa and asks her to go out after work via pen, paper, and coat. They never make plans ahead of time, nor do they even know each other's phone numbers. As Yukawa navigates her feelings and learns more about Mizuki, will their relationship blossom into more than whatever it is right now?
Review: This was soo adorable! It's an office GL. It's very wholesome. They communicate a whole lot and they start dating very early on so there's lots of dating content!

How did Mirabel, Renge, The Host and Zuka Club meet Mira like did they meet? At an event, in town or at school and if it’s a private school Mirabel would most likely had rely on her hard work and skills alone to earn a full ride scholarship to attend.
So she met Mori and Honey first. She had seen them playing around (mostly Honey but I digress) and, though very nervously, she asked them to play. Now keep in mind, all of the host club, Zuka club and Renge were there for her ceremony. Mirabel was already nervous enough around kids her age, let alone those who were older. But, she was pleasantly surprised to find that they did not care. They let her play. She met the other club members through Mori and Honey.
She met the twins on a separate occasions; this was also when she met Renge. At this point she had come to the seamstresses shop to ask for lessons. Little 7 year old Kyoya had noticed she had like sewing and the like and got her set up with the twin’s mom. She met the twins through their mom and they liked to play around with Mirabel; they viewed her as the little sister they never had. She met Renge because she frequented the shop, buying dress after dress, and Mirabel was bound to meet her.
She didn’t meet the Zuka club members until she was 10. She had met Hinako at her family’s bakery—Beni and Suzuran just happened to be there on “club business” and they all met. Mirabel didn’t find out they were rivals with the Host Club till she was 12 though 😭😭 and she only found out cause Renge had offhandedly mentioned it.
