This is a worthwhile shounen - particularly if you like supernatural/horror stories based on Japanese cultural topics. The art style is somewhat old school, with the stories covering curses affecting high school students, businesses and even gravure idols! If this is your cup of tea - then definitely worth purchasing.

Great example of a shoujo manga. Bit of mystery, a bit of angst and a bit of the old forced marriage trope leading to love - with a twist on the story with the MC expecting to get divorced after having a baby. Hoping that the next volume will be out shortly as I'm keen to see a HEA.

I really wanted to like this one, but unfortunately the patchy editing makes it a bit of a confusing read as you progress through the volumes. The general gist of the story is that the Queen is a white lion with a human as a pet, who is being forced to marry one of her own kind (another white lion) in order to assure the future of the monarchy. Said fiance has her brother captive in order to ensure the marriage goes ahead. I can't work out if this is supposed to be romance or a slave/master story or something else. Suggest renting this one only.

I'm not sure whether to laugh at this one or be offended! So many tropes and mangled myths from the Pacific! I had particular giggle at the kakapo and then the sudden appearance of the leopard - clearly the mangaka got New Zealand mixed up with India. That said - I'm keen to see where the story goes - as it seems a bit of a twist on a traditional omegaverse story, with the key plot point centering on the first sexual experience determining future gender roles.Hopefully it won't be too long for the next chapters to come out.

Only the first chapter so the jury is still out on whether I would buy any more of this title. Its also different for the fact it is almost a full colour manga.The story revolves around a high schooler who's family has fallen apart - both her sister and father have died, her mother is drinking and bringing home strange men to deal with her pain, while the MC comes across as a selfish, grasping brat. She's indulging posting pics of herself to attract male attention and as a result, gifts. Unfortunately, her new sugar daddy is turning into something not so sweet...

I would probably call this S&M light. That said, it touches on themes of self-worth which leads to a HEA for all the story participants. Essentially this is 3 stories, set at the circus, couple number 1 is the animal trainer and the circus strong man, next is a thruple made up of the circus clown and twins local artists, with the final couple being the circus ring master and the circus owner. For me I would have preferred a bit more back story on the origins of the circus but overall it scratched my yaoi itch.

Short and sweet. Story was a bit rushed, but it had a reasonable resolution, if somewhat predictable. Would have loved to had more back story on some of the gang rivalries and even an extended final chapter.Probably a better rental than a purchase.

Don't bother either renting or buying. Story is rushed, poorly developed and with MCs who are all over the place. The publisher, mangaka and their editor shouldn't have bothered with this - there is a kernal of a potentially good story here, but its so badly executed its really not worth the time or the money.

This is a refreshingly sweet story about first love. Yes - there are some tropes about the innocent straight jock vs the more experienced gay older senior student, but it was nice to ready something whereby both were virgins struggling with feelings about each other, without rushing into sex straight away.It was also nice to see some consideration by older MC worrying about how other MC will be viewed by others, and wanting to protect him from the bullying and gossip he has faced as an out gay teenager in a high school environment. Definitely worth buying rather than renting!

Even if you're not a cat lover, this collection of stories should still appeal. All the stories have a cat as the main character, with the humans being the ones assisted rather than the other way around. The main story has a talking cat as its MC and its clear the mangaka really loves that aspect of the stories.These stories are lovely and I'll definitely be re-reading them again in the future.
