Toshimitsu Yamamura owns a real estate company and loves baking delicious, healthy snacks in his spare time. When his coworker comes to him one day with the idea of advertising their real estate agency as LGBT-friendly, Toshi realizes this little change could really help people who often face discrimination in his industry. He's terrified, though, because he worries this move will out him as gay. Joined by his boyfriend Gonta who inspired him to bake in the first place, Toshi navigates a changing world that's slowly becoming more accepting, faces his fears and discomfort, and bakes some incredibly lovely treats along the way.  sexuality;gay;queer;comic;comic strips;transgender;cartoonist;toshimitsu yamamura;genta tsubakisaka;toshimitsu;gonta;toshi;fiction;gay men;lgbtq;homosexuality;interpersonal relations;japan;graphic novels;comics and graphic novels;baking;comic books;strips;baked products;real estate agents;manga;yaoi

A messenger's duty is to care for and protect the god they've been assigned to. In order to complete these tasks, such messengers require wings.

Shin, however, can't fly. His tiny, useless wings make him the target of ridicule and scorn among the other messengers and have kept him from being able to serve a god... until now. Determined to prove himself as a capable messenger despite his flightlessness, Shin accepts his assignment to a mysterious being on one of the nearby mountains. At first, it seems an easy task to keep his charge safe and happy — especially when the deity in question is just a cute, fluffy ball of fur. But things aren't always what they seem. 

Recently, messengers flying over the strange god's mountain have been disappearing. Even as suspicion mounts against his deity, Shin just can't bring himself to think that such a gentle god could have a dark side. It's strange, but for some reason... the mysterious, fluffy being feels so familiar to him.  manga;comic;graphic novel;yaoi;boys love;bl;japanese;gay;lgbt;yaoi manga english;yaoi bl manga;yaoi manga;yoai;yoai manga;yaoi anime manga;anime;boy love;boy love manga;boys love manga;japanese bl;bl japanese;manga books;manga anime;manga bl;manga yaoi;bl manga;manga boys love;manga ebook;manga english;manga kindle;manga lgbt;manga lgbtq;lgbtq;manga love;manga paperback;manga romance;love x love;love love;tokyopop;the god and the flightless messenger;god and flightless messenger;flightless messenger;hagi

Ami Satou works for Cobara, a company that specializes in sweets. While she may be good at sales, her confidence in pretty much everything else is low, which is why she hasn't even thought about dating since college. Instead, she fills up her imagination with romantic scenes from shoujo manga. 

When she meets Alain Giraud, a handsome, older French man in charge of a new project she's assigned to work on, she begins to struggle to keep that romantic imagination in check... especially with Alain being so overly friendly! Ami keeps reminding herself that it's just because he's French, but will she be able to resist his romantic charm?
 

Toshimitsu Yamamura lives together happily with his boyfriend of many years, Gonta Tsubakisaka, but in his everyday life Toshimitsu isn't really... "out." After his vehemently progressive employee had the idea to list their real estate business as LGBTQ+ friendly, Toshimitsu has been very anxious about accidentally outing himself, and he often channels his anxiety into baking incredible treats for his carb-conscious boyfriend. With the love of his boyfriend and his love of baking, maybe Toshimitsu will steadily become more comfortable being his authentic self! sexuality;gay;queer;comic;comic strips;transgender;cartoonist;toshimitsu yamamura;genta tsubakisaka;toshimitsu;gonta;toshi;fiction;gay men;lgbtq;homosexuality;interpersonal relations;japan;graphic novels;comics and graphic novels;baking;comic books;strips;baked products;real estate agents;manga;yaoi

Haru Kurosaki once heard a stranger's song in high school that made him decide to finally follow his passions. Now, he's a graphic designer who's recently been put in charge of designing a CD jacket for the prodigy musical artist Eddie Astley.

On the outside, Eddie is intimidating and aloof — but when Haru spots him at a rock concert, he realizes how wrong that assumption is. As he sees beyond Eddie's surly exterior and catches a glimpse of the man beneath the affectation, Haru begins to think about the message and emotions that Eddie tries to convey through his music. And in trying to get to know more about Eddie for his design project, he discovers that music always has a way of transporting you to a vital moment from the past. comic;lgbt;queer;guitarist;romantic comedy;gay;music;artist;relationship;lesbian;performing arts;love;lgbtq;band;kurosaki;eddie;haru kurosaki;eddie astley;haru;gay men;young adult fiction;romance;friendship;musicians;graphic novels;memory;comics and graphic novels;comic books;strips;graphic artists;gay musicians;manga;romance comic books;yaoi
