Our Sweet One-Room Apartment is a solid one volume BL. Kaname and Shima have been living together in Hokkaido in the titular one room apartment for a year and have been dating for two. They love each other and have great sex all the time. However, Kaname starts worrying that them having sex so much and him thinking about it constantly means that he’s a sex addict and he starts pulling away from Shima so that they have sex less. Shima starts worrying that Kaname doesn’t like him anymore and that they’ve entered some sort of lull period, since every time he tries to cuddle or kiss him Kaname freaks out and makes excuses to do something else. In the midst of this storm of miscommunication, they go on their planned trip to Tokyo, where things come to a head.
The art and the sex scenes here are both good, and it’s in one volume so everything gets wrapped up quickly and neatly. I did like their relationship in terms of both of them really loving each other and being devoted to each other. However, I hate the trope of miscommunication, especially when the couple is close and seems to have been doing well before this. It didn’t make any sense to me why Kaname would suddenly think he’s a sex addict and not talk to his boyfriend at all about it. It felt like a plot contrivance and one that then went on for way longer than it should have. It also didn’t make total sense to me that Shima would stay quiet on his end for so long either and then give up so quickly. Things seemed to veer around from scene to scene. This was the author’s first full volume work, so I think that explains some of the unevenness in the plotting. But I would pick up future stuff from them because again, the art is good and the tenor was sweet.
This is very explicit so keep that in mind, this is a definite 18+.
