"Raise wa Tanin ga li" • arranged engagement between two mobster families goes awry • highlight for me is the expressiveness of the female lead! the art allows for dynamic facial expressions in general • great mix of darker themes and romance (warning: violence, sex, ect)

"Yamada-kun to Lv999 no Koi wo Suru" • after getting dumped by her bf she immerses herself in the video game they used to play together • cute game panels, great expressions, and general good shoujo vibes! • in general very light hearted and sweet, a feel-good read

"A Bouquet for an Ugly Girl" • a self-deprecating girl who changes the classroom flowers every morning gets noticed • ok ik how the summary sounds but trust me it is so good • fantastic characters with great plot pacing and lovely art! shoujo with comedic undertones

"Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness!" • one chapter per story villainess anthology! • story and art vary with each chapter so it is hard to pick a highlight! I included my two favorites as my picture examples • skip chapter one. awful story.

"Gokurakugai Sanbandori no Ken" • two troubleshooters take on mermaid trafficking in a fantasy world • I would hang up every panel of this in my room if I could. the art is gorgeous • it is a one shot so you have no excuse not to read! violence and some cigarette use
