This was another amazing volume. I'm low-key feeling bad for Tatara. I wasn't sure if I liked him in the beginning, but now I care about him just as much as I do Shige and Shin. The fact that he's in love with Shin and can't do anything about it breaks my heart. That he still wants to protect him is whatbwon me over. Now, what I really want to know is what the heck is that CEO is up to. I hate how fixated he is on Shige and Shin's relationship. 5 stars

The evil CEO got his neice involved!? I am very curious about how he's going to make a play at Shige now that he's finally shown up in person, too.
1/5 🌶️ (how I rate spice written in my bio)

2.5⭐ because it's gotten really repetitive, the villain is bland, and the main couple gets less interesting with each new volume

My literal only complaint is that it was short. I wish these volumes were longer. I'm so enamored with these two. Their obsession with each other is so adorable. This series will always be my fav.

Tenia abandonadíssima aquesta sèrie, però per fi he pogut llegir un altre volum. La parella segueix enamoradíssima, cada cop més fins al punt que al Shige se li escapa un "marry me"!!! Això sí, el drama continua perquè les agències estan decidides a jugar brut: munten un escàndol que involucra el Shin amb una companya de rodatge que és familiar del cap de l'agència, inclouen per sorpresa el Shige al rodatge del Shin on ja hi havia el Tatara... Tot plegat s'acaba amb un cliffhanger del director de l'agència fent acte de presència al rodatge. Claríssimament tenim el drama a tocar!!! Volum de transició, amb mil ganes de saber com continua.

I have always liked the character Hanasaki from the beginning, and in this volume, I increasingly consider him my favourite character (hopefully there won't be any plot twist about him, but it seems unlikely). The trio, yeah, you know who I mean... the "Washimiya Protection Group," really made me laugh and touched my heart seeing how Shin's friends are always there to protect him.
Ah, and what's most annoying is that I have to wait until the end of the year to read the next volume. That's way too long!

One of my favorite volumes in the series so far I think? The character interactions were all just really cute. The couple interactions were sweet, Hanasaki is a great best friend, and I love the Washimiya protection squad haha. I feel bad for Tatara though, man is going through it. Plus, Shin and Shige getting to act together, how exciting for them! That stupid CEO better mind his own business though.

Shin and Shige have been trying their best to keep their secret relationship hidden, especially now that both actors are getting involved on the same television show. To make matters worse, Shin is photographed with a female co-star and the rumours start flying. Unfortunately, I’m getting to the point of wanting the world to know about Shin and Shige. Decent volume.

This series is giving me everything I want. This is the 8th volume of this Japanese romance of two working actors. We have been able to see into their relationship for several volumes now and it's great.
Shin and Shige are doing well in their new apartment. Work is going well. There is a little bit of jealousy. Their characters have some kissing scenes and it creates some good jealousy.
The spicy aspects of the story are awesome. This is a good balance of story and bedroom. The are plenty of sharks circling the couple though. A new villain was introduced in the president of the TV studio. It doesn't look good.
The story ends with the two ending up on the same set. They are going to film together. I love that! I was wanting them to end up together. If you ask me, they should film a danmei or Yaoi together. That would be so meta. It would complicate things too much. Too many people know about them and I'm waiting for it to leak. Something has to give soon. I CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE! I've caught up to what has been published, so I have to wait for the translations with everyone else.

I just didn't get enough in this volume of the CEO and his niece. I am not sure I get his big bad plan. If we all have accepted the prince is crap at acting and has been riding on his good looks, I don't get it.... The niece thing its weird honestly.
But I love our couple, I love their friends, and I love the managers. Less toxic but I haven't forgotten. Jealous, possessive seem here but the non con seems gone at this point.

I honestly don't know why I keep reading this series as nothing much ever happens outside of the sex scenes, but I hate leaving things unfinished, too. The CEO now seems to be showing up once again, which could spell trouble, especially now that they've somehow managed to get everyone on the same set. Just how badly could this house of cards really fall?

Tatara is down bad. Nothing new. This one just ends on a cliffhanger :,(. Hate Shiges boss. That guy keeps sceming against his own employees.

J’apprécie toujours autant cette plongée dans le monde du spectacle et ses coulisses aux côtés de notre couple d’acteurs qui grandit et se fortifie.
Que ce soit en privé ou professionnellement, chacun évolue et c’est un vrai plaisir à suivre. L’autrice nous offre des pages charmantes de leur quotidien, montrant leurs moments de détente mais également leur jalousie et l’expression de ce sentiment si vif. J’avoue que je me serais bien passée des scènes de sexe à gogo qui remplissent plus les pages qu’elles ne développent le scénario, mais c’est mon seul bémol de ce côté.
Côté pro, j’ai apprécié de voir le chemin fait par Shin et la reconnaissance qu’il commence à avoir dans le milieu. C’est vraiment plaisant de la part de l’autrice de retracer ainsi son parcours. Les scènes où on le voit désormais jouer ont une belle intensité. Mais cette reconnaissance s’accompagne aussi des effets pervers du métier et ici la mangaka ne s’est pas foulé en ressortant la carte de l’actrice cherchant à le piéger avec des paparazzis pour faire grimper sa côte. Bof. Heureusement qu’à côté on a le plaisir de le voir jouer aux côté de Shige. Leur duo est électrisant.
Enfin, même si parfois ce n’est pas toujours très bien dosé et que ça s’accompagne d’un mélodrame showbizz-nesque moyen, j’apprécie de les voir entourés et protégés par leurs amis et leur entourage pro. Cela dégage un beau sentiment d’amitié et on sent qu’ils sont appréciés et protégés car ce n’est pas facile pour eux.
Petite crainte pour le côté mélodramatique heureusement pour le moment contenue grâce à la belle évolution pro de chacun. C’est un plaisir de les suivre à la scène et dans leur quotidien. Certes les ressorts sont classiques mais ils fonctionnent bien et on est content de suivre leurs aventures à chaque fois.
