I Am Your King (2017)

 I sort of liked I Am Your King s1, didn't care much for s2, they were unrelated from each other. I said "sort of" cause I really didn't liked the premises, having New, Matt, Bright, August, Junho, and Pound got together for a game is not exactly good, but letting aside the why they got together, I sort of like all three couples in their differences. The series was mostly cute, in line with the age of the couples. It was not the best, but at least it was somewhat original, not the usual high school romance. HEA (for 2 out of 3). You can see it on iQIYI. Heat Level: 4/6.

So Much in Love (2020)

 The plot of So Much in Love was such a mess that it's difficult to find something to save... in this case I have to say that the only good thing are is the eye candy provided by the three couples (yes, three!) Guy, Peem, Oat, Strong, Mill and Yang with this last couple easily winning the badge of most erotic couple of the year. Said that, nothing else much. HEA. Heat Level: 4/6.

My Boy (2021)

 My Boy is a missed opportunity. The ordinary pair of two college students had been spicied making one of the two, Nut, a returning student, therefore a slightly older. He is also openly gay, and he has no trouble with his identity. Moreover I liked also the character of Satha, the usual popular male lead, paired with someone as interesting as him should have been delivered a good plot, and instead nothing of interesting happened. There were all the premises, but My Boy was, basically, boring. HEA. Heat Level: 3/6.

Love Mode by Yuki Shimizu

 

Mistaken identities, bizarre accidents and pratfalls, tragic pasts and plenty of broken hearts, and that is just for starters! Love Mode tells the story of the lives of the men involved with the classy male escort service, Blue Boy. Love lines intertwine and cross, friendships are made and broken in this boy's love classic!

Sakashita Izumi, your typical straight high school student, gets into a sticky situation with a gay translator, Takamiya Katsura, when he gets mistaken for Izumi - an escort from B&B (Blue Boy)! The two go on a date, Takamiya goes all the way with the young Izumi, and now the older man's in love with him. Tiny Problem: Izumi is slightly homophobe. Will he eventually convert in that which he fears?

Reiji, owner of B&B and other sleazy clubs (and seemingly not gay) finds out his girlfriend had been cheating on him - just after dumping her. He bumps into a young, family-less, money-less, trustless high school named Naoya who at that moment gets knocked out by a pot that Reiji's vengeful ex-lover drops on his head. Reiji accompanies the young boy, feeling bad that this is partly his doing, only to find that now Naoya is homeless since his apartment burned down and finally ends up taking in this "stray cat".

Ze by Yuki Shimizu

 

If Fruits Baskets was done as a yaoi manga, it might look something like this...

Given room and board in exchange for taking over the household chores for the half dozen residents, Raizo slowly comes to realize that the house is hiding some pretty dark secrets. Are his housequests more than what they appear? And will his attraction to the lord and master Kon prove hazardous to his health?

Hometown's Embrace (2021)

 Hometown's Embrace, again set in Northern Thai, a countryland, is sort of bad, I was wondering how they can put together a bloody scene where they kill innocent villagers, with a sexy scene of an hot boy taking a shower in the open... And the ad placement right in that moment was also disconcerting. I'm not sure if they wanted the effect like that, sort of giving you the bad and soon after the good... to me it was like, what the heck I'm seeing? Anyway, the plot is quite unrealistic, the three couples are just eye candy material, and so, if you want to enjoy them, you can try this one. It made me remember the spot of Abercrombie & Fitch, when they wanted to sell clothes and showed you a completely naked man taking a shower... HEA. Heat Level: 4/6.
