Sugar Dog Life

by Yoriko

Sakuraba is a college student, though you'd never know it, with his short height and baby face. Certainly police officer Amazawa thought Sakuraba was a minor, and nearly booked him for being out too late after he was returning from a drinking party. But there's something oddly familiar about him, and the two strike up an odd relationship...

I don't know why there's so much foodie adjacent BL, but I for one am not complaining. This was sweet and adorable, and I really appreciate the effort that was made to keep the power balance in their relationship equal despite the age and occupation differences.

ACAB but this was an exception. Oh, the fluff kills me! but it's too short. I need more.

Such a cute and sweet couple. The art was amazing and the plot funny. I need the story about the friends now!

not my favorite yoriko read, but it was cute. no angst and definitely more on the wholesome side, but i still liked the characters. i wish there was a disagreement or fight between the mcs as yoriko absolutely kills it when it comes to those scenes. this was just too sweet for me :p

this was soooo cute 🥺 i’m upset that it’s not longer because the dynamic between the MC & ML was storable. a perfect palate cleanser in between heavier books or if you’re just in the need of a short, quick, funny, and wholesome manga (w/ a tad bit of spice 🤌)

Short Grumpy Guy x Tall Kind Ball of Sunshine dynamic never fails. Neither the black-haired x light-haired trope. Most tropes in this short manga has been tried and true. But this was just so cute I could feel my heart exploded. Boyfriends. Soulmates. I wanna cry because they're so cute together. Also their "confession" thing was so cute but so funny because it went like this:

> Met each other
> Izumi offered to cook for Kyousuke at his home
> Lived together for a while and literally showed his househusband skills
> Kyousuke let Izumi sleep in his bed on his arm
> Izumi going "Oh no, wait. I love him" after jacking off to Kyousuke's thoughts (I was in legit tears)
> Izumi confessed to him
> Kyousuke suddenly pressed "doubt" THEN
> Kyousuke: *held both of Izumi's hands over a table* *Kiss him on the forehead*
Kyousuke: Hmmm I'm not sure...
Izumi: Hmmm I'm not sure either

At this point they had surpassed several relationship landmarks and were veering on "they are already married, they just don't know it yet" territory but they kept freaking out because they're being cute and considerate of each other! They just didn't want to hurt each other's feelings! Tell me this isn't toothache-inducing. (Also this is peak disaster gay energy. I was rolling)

My heart... Sweet, short, wholesome, got me blushing and shit.

The artstyle is so good, just my type. Short grumpy and tall sunshine is the perfect combo. Izumi is just... So cute, so assertive:( My soul has been cleansed.

Eine süße BL-Story zwischen einem Studenten, der gerne kocht, und einem Polizisten. Erzählt wir das Kennenlernen der beiden und, wie sie sich ihrer jeweiligen Gefühle füreinander klar werden. Feelgood Vibes und sympathische Charaktere.

Edit 11/12/22:
Probabilmente non vi interessa ma ho comprato l’edizione francese perché AMO QUESTO MANGA! Tra l’altro io non capisco nemmeno una parola di francese, ma va bene così. Mi basta guardare le immagini. Ora aspetto un’edizione italiana grazie mille, fate diventare questo sogno realtà!


Rilettura 27/04/2021:
Niente raga riconfermo il mio amore per questo manga. Ogni volta che lo leggo sento che la mi depressione va via. È il mio preferito in assoluto. Anche se non siete fan del genere vi consiglio di leggerlo perché è veramente troppo troppo troppo tenero e dolce e ommiodio voglio rileggerlo di nuovo aiuto È UNA DROGA!


Lettura 8/07/2020
Se solo potessi darei più di 5🌟!!
È stato uno dei manga più adorabili degli ultimi tempi.
Isumi è un piccolo pulcino e Amasawa è coooooosi figo!
La trama è ben fatta, i disegni sono meravigliosi, i protagonisti e i personaggi secondari sono ben caratterizzati e ritroviamo sia scene d’amore bellissime che scene super hot!
Io boh, sono felicissima di aver letto questo gioiellino (ultimamente mi sembra che tutto stia diventando troppo scontato) e sinceramente vorrei un seguito!!

I didn't expect it to be this cute shdskdlskhgh—

A story about a grumpy cute chibi who's actually a third year university student with a height and baby-faced complex, with a kindhearted police officer.

Contains:
Height differences ✅
Police-man uniform ✅
Consensual ✅
Vanilla 🍦 ✅
Definitely a fluff ✅

I really like their characterization. Everyone is so loveable. I love how upfront Isumi is when he finally found out that he loves Amasaka. Atack! Atack! Atack! ⚔ ((it's a completely unexpected event but it was a very pleasant surprise❣))

So this is what happens when two cinnamon rolls in a relationship; a vanilla-relationship we all want and need in our life.

Gosh, I love reading wholesome shit

[Paula (lovebookscl) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Necesito qu traduzcan más mangas de Yoriko porque me encantan sus tramas, sus personajes y su estilo de dibujo.

Este manga trata de un meet cute entre un policia y un estudiante universitario que andaba un poco borracho una noche. Desde ese momento tienen más encuentro, pasan a ser amigos y más. Super lindo y cozy.

[Cas ✨ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ugh, I love Yoriko. They do the good blushies. 🥰
This was super cute, I love how many “cook your way into his heart” BL mangas there are. Also loved that Izumi got taken care of & worried about too 🥹
I really hope there will be a sequel though because I need more fluff!!!

Fluffy romance

[Ifrah · Rating 3 out of 5]

I liked how their relationship progressed and their dynamic, but overall there's not much to this other than fluffiness. It was a cute, quick read.

[Laura · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5 stars.
Loved how soft and fluffy this was! Didn't love the couple extras scenes at the end... But yeah I'm glad soft and fluffy BL like this exists.

[Autumn · Rating 3 out of 5]

A quick but cute read. Definitely felt rushed but overall a quick and midly spicy oneshot.
