Collection of shot stories:
1) Love Letter of Flowers Someone has been giving the new music teacher origami flowers, and he's not quite sure who or why. But a single student comes to mind whenever he thinks about it.

3) I Don't Deal Well with Kinoshita-kun Kinoshita has fallen for his teacher and keeps trying to seduce him, which makes dealing with Kinoshita rather difficult. But no matter what he does, Kinoshita just won't give up.

5) Craving Experience with Love Otsukawa has always been very popular... to the point where girls inadvertently dumped him thinking he was too good for them. Because of this, he's still a virgin at age 28 and embarrassed to go out with anyone for fear of showing his lack of experience. So, when Koumoto, a male coworker, confesses his love, he decides to use Koumoto to get the experience that he lacks.
Beautiful art as always and such adorable chibis! I really do love Mishima-sensei's style ^__^ Anyway a quick review of the stories;
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
Chapter 1; Very sweet and innocent romance. I liked the use of origami. Still I found it odd that the teacher seemed to have no qualms about liking a student, but nevermind. Chapter 2; Perverted teacher and equally perverted student. They were made for each other! I liked how the teacher regretted his actions and tried to make amends. And in the end I actually felt more sorry for him than the blackmailed student haha. Though I didn't quite understand why the student fought him so much at first when he obviously wanted it too... I assume it was just because he was waiting for the teacher to let his guard down and start feeling guilty. If so, then it clearly played out well! Chapter 3; My favourite couple <3 The student is really sweet and I love his cheekiness. Also I liked how the teacher was actually fully aware of his position as his sensei, and he tried to maintain that balance instead of giving into his own feelings. For once there's a sensible sensei! Chapter 4; Quite nice... this time it's a senpai-kouhai relationship. Nothing wrong with this story but for me it's the most forgettable. Not much else to say about it. Chapter 5; This is the most interesting one. Shame it was so short, it would've been better if it had been drawn out a bit longer to make Otsukawa's change of heart seem more realistic. Extra: Continuation from the first chapter. Again, very cute.
So all in all, a lovely collection XD Most of the chapters are clean so i'd categorize this as being more shounen-ai than yaoi, making this perfect for anyone just getting into BL. The only one that would fall into the yaoi category would be the 2nd chapter... but even then it's really tame. Definitely worth reading, especially if you also love Mishima-sensei's other work ^__^
T.T in the second story I kept thinking they deserved each other cause they were just as bad as each other bunch of blackmailers. Good manga and cute too but it's not something that sticks into your head
The stories have a good and balanced amount of well, 'story', fun and plain old yummilicious yaoiness. 'Craving Experience With Love' was my favourite - I liked the novelty of its concept. 'Tomorrow Again in the Library' was... warm ^-^~ The rest of the stories are good, too.
At this point I've only read the first story, but its far tamer and a bit corny (sweet? XD) compared to this mangaka's other stories. So far no overbearing/ bordering crazy seme. I cant wait to read the other stories!
