✘ - not interested (but will probably still listen to)
1. Otoko Yamome mo Hana wa Saku ✘ *this is shounen-ai so 😂
Cast: Ishiya Haruki x Kasama Jun
Synopsis: Limited drama cd special for the release of the 2nd volume of the manga.
Comment: This will be these two’s first major BL roles still no sex tho. Congrats and I hope it turns out well. Wish you both have fantastic careers in the future. 👍
2. Golden Sparkle 💡 *yet another Suzumaru Minta
Cast: Furukawa Makoto x Kouhei Amasaki
Synopsis: With an absent father, and having had a traumatic experience in pre-school, Himari Uehara has problems dealing with girls, and knows nothing about sexuality. He joins a boys-only high school, makes a good friend, and his now happy school life is marred only by the disconcerting changes in his body. His new friend, Gaku Asada, realizing Himari’s ignorance, offers to teach Himari how to take care of his male physical needs… (Hero Scans)
Comment: Damn, Suzumaru Minta sure is livin this year. Three of their works have just been adapted into BLCDs - that’s quite an amazing feat considering that you really can’t find any English trans of her works (except for this one. y’all are legit heroes, Hero Scans) out there. I guess they’re a big hit in Japan. Harudaki and theanonrelease have worked on a lot of their works, but you know the deal with Harudaki. Theanonrelease has also been inactive for quite a while now and they only go for Minta’s one-shots, if I remember correctly. Here’s to praying that some other teams take their works on. 🙏 Either way, I’m definitely buying their works when my financial situation turns around. 😂
3. Sutenaide My Hero vol.2 - Animate Limited Edition Set ✘
Cast: Itou Kento x Ono Yuuki
Synopsis: Limited drama cd special for the release of the 2nd volume of the manga.
Cast: Horiuchi Kenyuu x Okitsu Kazuyuki
Synopsis: Yuuki Ise has bad taste in men. His latest boyfriend breaks up with him in a public shouting match, and as he is consoling himself, a pair of underwear falls upon him from an apartment above. The one who dropped it was a man named Hishimoto, who Ise couldn’t seem to ignore, and they end up working together to bring in the laundry that had fallen onto a tree outside his window.
After being told by Hishimoto that he would like to thank him, Ise goes up to his place. There, he is told that Hishimoto has been thinking about him, and had used the fallen laundry as an excuse. Further more, Hishimoto then flirts with him, asking if he’s interested in older men…?!
Comment: CAN YOU HEAR ME SCREAMING????!!!!! Yo, if we had Yoidore in June, we have this in July! Gods! Stop giving me any more reasons to live!!! Man, I loved the manga so much. Didn’t know that the Japanese spelled “daddy” as Hishimoto Takafumi - AND SPEAKING OF HISHIMOTO TAKAFUMI, HE’S VOICED BY NO OTHER THAN HORIUCHI KENYUU! THE VOICE OF YOKOZAWA TAKAFUMI!!! 😭😭😭 And hello??? Ise is going to be voiced by my Okitsu??? Who casted this??? They deserve a fucking raise! 👏
