Enjoyable, but not much substance
となりの番犬 is a quick one-shot that follows two childhood friends, one cute and bubbly and the other overprotective (like, yandere levels without the violence). They're pretty much at max in terms of physical contact (in an innocent way) right as the story begins anyway, so after getting together life continues on as normal to some degree. Each chapter is a small scenario in the two realigning their view of the other in terms of being boyfriends, but there's little to no stakes or much chance at friction between the two. It's all very sweet, and good for those looking for a turn-your-brain-off quick read.
(Please note that while no 18+ behavior is directly shown, you do see the insinuations of it.)
Full furigana, no difficult vocab or grammar not found in a day-to-day school life scenario.
