Dub-con it is, especially with the male MC's best friend. Zero development from ch 1 to 2 and they just go right into it. I mean, there was no mention that the brother was actually the brother until chapter 2. It was literally implied with no intro's. Best friend, the hell is wrong with you? I don't get why the female MC keeps referring to the male MC as a sadist - at one point I thought that might of been the title of the series but he really just turns into a sex fiend, that's all. You know what these two can do, get a remote control light switch lol...

Story about a feelings of admiration potentially developing into love. The two protagonist are from pretty different worlds with regards to their status so the h can only ever admire the H from afar and satisfied to that degree until the circumstances change. The H has one of those expressionless personalities and the h is an HUGEEE airhead, to the point of being an idiot so it adds to the humor. To no surprise, she's the fallback plan. Still got lots of questions that I hope will be answered in later chapters and not just left as plot holes. Looking forward to the next chapter.

Not entirely sure it's worth reading til the end. I saw all the great reviews and kept hoping the next chapter would get better but throughout the entire series, I just felt "ehh." The personalities of all the characters are atrocious - not entirely saying it was bad writing but the people are terrible beings, whether they started as bad or became bad as a result of other bad people. At some point they do become better but I feel like I'm dragging my feet. There is definitely development but it all came to and end rather quickly, not suddenly, but quickly so I can see why others strongly believe there could have been more. There are def some plot holes that could be filled in like giving more backstory about the family or some resolution with the mom. Just loads of frustration leading up to a confession. If I had to sum this series up in one word, it's SADISTIC. BTW - girl ain't chubby or plump, wtf? That's what I mean by people are just messed up in this story.

I started reading this with 2 chapters out and really thought chapter 2 was the end of the series. Thinking back, that really should of been the end. In my humble opinion, I felt like the mangaka was rushing through the story just to write about the sex scenes. The story line is pretty textbook - two rivals wind up becoming a couple. The h is an independent woman who doesn't like relying on others but learn to do so - it's predictable. There was the added surprise that the H had a certain condition, which had potential to develop into a more interesting story but it was addressed and they moved on, which was why I seriously thought ch 2 was the end. There was also an ex that reappeared but the scenes changed so quickly without any dialogue as to what happened, I felt there was a gaping hole missing in the plot.

This is okay - got it on sale. Hate to say it, but Love at the Front Door is the only series I like so far from this mangaka - I've read a couple so far and they've all been mediocre..this one too. I do appreciate that all three stories were consensual and the women were pretty much respected vs some of the other series under the same mangaka. All the stories featured the male falling in love first and hitting on the females in a pretty respectable manner. First story - a female OL with an male escort. Second story - female grieving over her a tragic love and ends up in a new one with someone who reminds her a lot of her past. Last story is about a nursery teacher and a single parent.

Yeah... this is kind of generic and boring. First story is about two people who ended up sleeping together while they were in a pretty doomed relationship of their own. Second story was kind of annoying - a couple who's been together since middle school and it's become stale. Third story was super random - this girl is complaining about school to her friend who confesses to her. Last story was also kind of boring - the girl gets asked out by a friend and realizes she has feelings for her childhood friend. Nothing exciting...at some points there was potential for development but it just skips ahead or there's a huge plothole somewhere.

Really, it's a 3.5 stars rounded to a 4. The story touches less on the MC's passion for sword fighting which is lost in later chapters - too bad. The couple were cute in the beginning and pretty clumsy when it came to love - the husband would always apologize and check-in with her. x2 page count = x2 sex scenes. By the end of it, I'm literally glazing over. Later chapters were harder to read due to all the jealous non-consenual sex. I'm unfamiliar with the culture/history of this era but keep an open mind (i.e. 16th century in Europe when its was normal to have an audience observe a wedding consummation). But things like "I need to report this" and "I learned more this at work" - felt like the husband was airing dirty laundry, pun intended. Artwork is beautiful, though the husband carries this expressionless look that really bothers me. All of the supporting male characters had more expressions than him.

I had high hopes coming from the mangaka's other work, Love at the Front Door but I personally didn't like either stories. Both showcase a twisted way of showing love from non-cont. Sure one can argue the first story was that they were ex's but...the fact the of matter is at the that moment, they were not. The setting was surrounded by a lot of abusive people where the female lead is portrayed as being powerless as a result of their background and falls into the whims of men. I got a little mad having purchased this.

Lovely art, cute story about a girl's self-improvement journey. I got a bit confused at the end as I'm not sure what quite happened but it's a nice story overall.

This is pretty friggin good and well worth the price in my personal opinion. It's a compilation of 6 stories and it felt like I was reading on forever - it was great. They were all a bunch of feel-good stories and when I say stories, they're actually stories - complete and without holes and pretty realistic; not one of those where the plot revolves around sex and only sex. The couples are so friggin cute too and I swear there was at least one line or piece of dialog in each chapter that cracked me up. Story 1 is as stated. Story 2 is about two childhood friends who've been together almost all their lives but the girl is completely oblivious to her friends' feelings.Story 3 is about a girl going to a company matchmaking party and invites a co-worker to fill-in the last spot but left out the detail it was a "group" party.Story 4 is a fun one. The school nurse has a fetish for boy's school uniforms and encounters the music teacher who has a fetish for girl's school uniforms.Story 5 is about a fashionable girl who starts working at a maid cafe full of cutesy girls and has to change herself (for the better) in order to be successful at her job with the help of her manager.Story 6 is about a girl that's never fallen in love with so she rejects everyone who's ever confessed to her until recently when she's asked to have a one-month trial period.My favorites were story 3 and 4.
