Aww, this should have been longer. The male lead is adorable. He's so sweet, earnest, and focused on pleasing her. The art was a little off in some places and the flow of panels got a bit weird at times, but the sheer likeability of the male protag made up for all of that.

So far the male protags in the stories I've read by this author have all been pretty adorable. Yuuki is no exception. He's kind, supportive, and wears his heart on his sleeve. Nao makes a cool heroine. She's mostly realistic in her outlook on life and determined about her plans for a career. I love their dynamic. this series was kinda steeply priced in the other format, but this way it's a super good value totally worth the points.

If you prefer male leads that are monogamous with the heroine from the start of their relationship or soon after you may not care for this one. If male protags that obsess over the heroine's virginity and exclusivity to them while having sex with several other women often within hours of doing it with the heroine are distasteful to you then you may not care for this one. If you find male leads that initially view foreplay as a cumbersome favor to the heroine, or frequently womanize using money as sexual leverage but act as if the women their using are the predatory ones unappealing then this one may not be for you. If none of those things are prohibitive to you then you may like this. There are a lot smutty scenes, but not much foreplay. There isn't much about the male protag that I care for, but he is gentle, shows moderate concern for the heroine initially, and isn't sadistic. The heroine is cool enough. She's fairly emotionally immature herself, and seems to not really value anything besides her work. She's fairly laid back about her situation. Some might find her more relatable physically because of her diminutive figure. I only made it through chapter 4 before I couldn't bear to spend anymore on this story, but I believe the other reviews about this being a slow burner with good pay off for those who aren't bothered by the things I mentioned. I just wanted to warn those with similar aversions to mine to trust their instincts and skip this one.

Like the initial summary states, the heroine isn't being honest with herself. Her hate really just = annoyance with the fact that she's actually kind of fond of this her young coworker that she's trying to view as a rival. If you like sweet, persuasive guys and only mildly ambivalent heroines than you'll like this. If you're looking for the type of story where the action starts off being somewhat non consensual this isn't right for you.

Okay so I thought this would be about a guy from a mobile otome game. Nah, the title is a bit more literal than that. So far it's pretty cute, though. I'll be keeping a look out for the next update.

I love megane boys. Glasses always get me, so just for that this story gets a couple of stars from me. The story, though. I really like the main characters. The plot at first seems fun and a bit silly, her having an allergy to hot guys, but by chapter 4 the story takes a more serious turn when it becomes clear what caused her aversion. Then the latest chapter to date, chapter 9, ups the ante and moves this into full on psychological drama territory. Without giving too much away I'll say that there are some serious traumas from which both of the protags need healing/saving that's hinted at as early as chapter 1. I understand, but respectfully disagree with the reviews of those who feel the ninth chapter's depiction of things was too much. In the context of the entire story and even just the chapter itself, it's very clearly meant to unsettle and even upset the reader. Too often that very situation and similar ones are glorified/romanticized in soap operas and manga for men, but I don't think many people could read this as it's presented and feel very stimulated. It just feels yucky and tragic, as it should. More now than when this just felt like a fluffy, sweet romcom I want to see things work out for these characters.

I love the bosses secret. Wish there were more spicy love male leads with his particular quirk. Yuka is quite likeable, and the boss is a megane for all the spectacle lovers. This one's lots of fun and worth the tickets.

MC is a cook in the air force. She's passionate about her job and about nutrition, so she gets really upset when the two ace pilots of the force won't finish their carrots. She makes it her personal mission to get them to appreciate the orange vegetable and in the process repeatedly ends up in compromising situations with the two. This is a pretty goofy read. The cost per chapter is a little prohibitive, but you do get a lot of pages for the tickets, so I won't say it's not worth it.

Been eyeing this one for awhile because I like butlers, but this one didn't really do it for me. It didn't make a whole lot of sense, and I didn't find either of the guys all that appealing. I also could not relate to the heroine at all. I know this wasn't meant to be fun, but it wasn't even romantic or sexy to me either.

Don't let the title put you off of this one. I did for a while, but it's actually a lot better than it sounds. Aiko is a young woman about to graduate from college. She plans a celebratory hot springs trip with her best friend who cancels at the last minute, so her step father decides to accompany her instead. It's on this trip that her relationship with her "Papa" transforms at her insistence. The MC Aiko is really cute, and Masaki ( I think that's "Papa's" name) is really charming albeit somewhat insatiable. If you love sexy megane characters like I do you'll totally dig him. He does seem a bit young to be her step dad. I'm thinking Aiko's mother was around 5-7 years older than him and that he's only around 13-15 years older than Aiko. Anyway, there's also Aiko's kind and handsome ex-boyfriend and Masaki's diligent and cute assistant whose stories are almost as interesting as the main couple's.
