Beautiful artwork and very realistic stories. Read it in one go! Emotional stories which intersect each other in subtle ways.

Meh on Dear, Teddy Bear
Nah nah tbh the art is fuckingg damnn good but the story is kinda disappointment. Neither it's that toxic nor it's healthy. Idk how to put it in.

Pretty good on Hollow Lovers (Honey Catch)
Only just a 4 star.....
This is a good shounen-ai about a previously straight man falling in love with his gay employer/housemate. It's very earnest and there's no toxicity between the main characters which was really nice to see! I also like how the story continues after they get together because it shows how it's not all "happily ever after" and they have to work on managing their first proper relationship together. Both characters go through real personal growth, especially the MC who goes from being a NEET womanizer to a hardworking, competent, monogamous adult. There is stark homophobia from outside the couple which made me uncomfortable but it was realistic for how some people would respond to the situation so I understand why it was used. However, there are some other issues with the story and it does fall into a few typical manga traps (there's a short kidnapping/attempted sexual assault plot, a business sabotage/blackmail plot, etc.), which was odd because the story was good enough on its own and didn't need these things. One of the sub-plots also ended really abruptly so I was left thinking "what was the point of that?!". The whole thing is quite short - it are 90 chapters but they are very short so overall it's easy to get through in one day.
The art work is good but not very consistent; I found both the MC's and ML's appearances fluctuated a lot (and not intentionally). I did like how equal they were physically and how "normal" they looked compared to other shounen-ai/yaoi. S** scenes are rare and are drawn in a shounen-ai style where it's more a heavy implication of s** rather than showing actual s**. A bit disappointing after 30 chapters of build up but ah well. I did like how respectful and consensual all the scenes were though.
Overall definitely worth a read but does have a few issues.

Sucks big time on Nito's Lazy Foreign World Syndrome
The author seriously had some traumatic bully issue and decide to write these story as a relief for the experience but end up not having a clue into how to exact a revenge towards his bullies hence the farked up novel and manga call lazy nito. Try read the novel version and I guarantee you won't feel the same ss you read this manga because of how childish and c2pid the author tries to potray nito as himself to exact revenge towards his bullies that it end up making the readers feels cringe reading toward what the author tries to convey.

Kinda bad on I’m the strongest boss
Interesting idea, bad realisation, in the end it's too slow and boring.
