Takano frequents the deli of the grocery store where Nagiri works. He always purchases the bentos that Nagiri makes. One day all the bentos were sold out, so Nagiri offered dinner at his place...
The art is very particular, it stands out in a good way. It’s not generic, but also not ugly. It’s very nice, a little bit fluffy and also a bit messy. Nevertheless, it had good transitions and flow.
The characters are a-do-ra-ble. Their feelings really come through. They bring the reader on a journey of wholesomeness and cuteness overload. Personalities are well defined, simple characters who are in love.
The relationship development was slow paced but entertaining. I was rooting for them from the start. There wasn’t anything particularly complicated going on, so it makes for a light and cute read.
The plot was nicely paced, very sweet, and serene. I definitely feel a yearning for more, I think these characters can definitely have more going on. Who knows, maybe we’ll get a 2nd and 3rd volume? Not that things were left unfinished, I just feel like this author could go more in depth about the story, meanings, backstory, and overall development.
Definitely worth reading. Glad I picked this up. Will reread in the future when I feel like it.
TRIGGER WARNING: this manga has violent depictions of sexual scenes and uses abuse disguised as romance. Viewer discretion is advised.
The torturous love between devil Yoshimi and shy honey Riku. This manga tells the story of Riku, a bartender traumatized by his first experienced having sex and a regular playboy at the bar, Yoshimi.
The art felt really personal, it felt very particular of the author. I didn't have any major complaints. Expressions where great and bodies were proportionate. Manly figures and faces really gave the feel of actually reading yaoi without it being bara- The art employs comic relief in scenes and funny faces!
The characters develop slowly, but they are well defined in their personalities from the beginning. They don't change who they are, but rather grow. You might find that you love or hate a certain character at the beginning but by the end of reading this series you'll definitely change your opinion about said character.
The relationship development. At the beginning, it was irritating to see all the humiliation going on and the way Yoshimi demands his needs to be met by the clueless and uncertain Riku. The series progressed nicely into a lovely romance and we got to see a much more gentler side of Yoshimi by the end. Riku doesn't set clear boundaries, but doesn't seem to completely reject and at times it is implied that he accepts what is going on. The rapey- feeling was there for me, but I didn't feel as guilty as I usually do. Hmm..?
The plot sadisitic seme x innocent uke. Nothing that seams extraordinary, but since it's conveyed well it's worth it. This manga might seem messy, but it didn't feel overwhelming and I was able to follow through the story telling and dialogues properly. The plot certainly kept my attention going. The comedy adds spice to it too.
Sure. There's better out there nowadays, but this is worth reading. Specially if you're into the sadistic seme troupe. Totally worth it. Would recommend.
You gave us hope to continue reading the relationship between these fluff balls. Thank you!!
Satoshi walks for the first time to a gay bar and meets the prince of ni choume. He falls in love at first sight. They are about to make love when suddenly he received a call that his father has passed away so he rushes out leaving unfinished business. Only to find out a few days later that the prince of nichoume is actually the son of the second husband of his own mother.
The art is confusing at the beginning but it's amazing to see how much this author improves with time. It really does get a lot better as the series progresses. By the end of chp 13 of vol 3, I had no problems following the art. Beginning was quite bad but it's fine afterwards.
The plot is complicated but it makes up for a peculiar, funny story. The author and translator did a great job, I was able to keep up with the storytelling. This author is clearly making an effort to keep the story going so she introduces characters and side plots at critical times of the series. It kept being entertaining so I didn't mind.
The characters... I absolutely love how they all maintain their essence even as the story progresses. At no point does the uke metamorphs into a girly, good for nothing, dependent uke as often happens as yaoi progresses.
The relationship development... As I said, it's very slow, but I feel like it's worth it. It's not particularly funny, dramatic, or romantic... I'd say the highlight of it is how unique and realistic it is. It does seem to make sense and I could picture this happening irl.
This manga does not romanticize olderxyounger or incest. In fact, the stepbrother is quite adamant to follow through with the relationship given the age difference and their family situation. I found this interesting and it made me happy.
The first chapter was complicated, nevertheless, I gave it a try and oh boy, i'm glad I did. This series gets a lot better as it progresses, overall i'd say it was a good read. Worth it. I will continue reading this series and hope for an update.
I think it's sad that this story still has one of the biggest cliches of storytelling. The one who always loses keeps losing. To me, if anything is girly, that is the most girly thing of all. T.
Follows the story of a man who starts a relationship with a piercing enthusiast.
The art is simple, dark, slender figures, lots of attributes that immediately scream "Harada sensei's work."
The characters are carefully crafted, their feelings come through wonderfully. I felt very close to the mc's. I was wishing them happiness. Rooting for them all the way through.
The relationship development... Well, i'm shocked. Harada sensei's works are usually disturbing so I was bracing myself for this one, but it came with a surprise... A hint of romance.
The plot clearly shows the amount of research put into this work. Dark and a little bit obscene, absolutely compelling.
I have to say that the translators did an excellent job. The use of imagery made the story easy to follow and I was able to understand all the complicated details of the piercings. Thank you translator!!!
Would absolutely recommend. One of the best oneshots i've read.
The story follows crybaby Maki and childhood friend Rin-chan. In high school, a girl confessed to Maki, but Rin got upset...??? Fast forward to university, their relationship changes when they start to live together and Maki suddenly gets hard every time he's around Rin...
The art is good, no mayor complaints. Good sex appeal, good proportions, good expressions.
The characters are well defined. The personality of each one really comes through, it's enjoyable because they seem to be contrasting characters but not overwhelmingly.
The relationship development was smooth, nicely paced, and entertaining.
The plot was typical, but cute. It's not a bad read. Would recommend.
Follows the story of Bebe-san, a cat, whose owner is in love with his childhood friend.
The art is fabulous. Stylish, proportionate, very cute.
The characters are carefully crafted, they are complex yet easy to follow.
The relationship development between all characters was heartfelt and bittersweet.
The plot is captivating and alluring. Subtle foreshadowing, very compelling.
I always come back to reread this. It's adorable and gives me all the feels.
Classmate is concerned about transfer student and wants to help him socialize but instead is captivated by his smile. Cute bl high school romance between classmates.
The art is ok. Faces are great, but bodies... crap. Too bad, hope that this author gains more experience and adds more sex appeal to her stories since the intention is definitely there.
Characters are simple and cute. Their personalities easily resonated with me, their minds were easy to follow yet sometimes surprising. I understood their feelings well.
Relationship development was well explained, quick witted but still smooth, I could see this happening irl.
Plot is well defined, directed with care. The few things that were going on didn't make the story overly complicated but instead added to the plot. Nice resolution.
There's better out there, but this was worth the read.
Would recommend.
The art was good. Nothing out of ordinary, but certainly not bad. Maybe a little rough, but still cute. I liked how most of the time the supporting character's faces were not drawn, this made me focus on the main characters, made the story sharp, given the short amount of chapters. Cleanliness was good, art style was good, transitions were good.
The characters were quite lovely. At the beginning I thought the Seme was childish but that didn't bother me at all, since they are high school students. In fact, it only made me think that the author portrayed really well the feeling of "high school romance." The attitudes of the characters reflected their age really well. It took me back to the memories I have of my first love in high school. The Uke was cool around other people, yet cute and sweet with the Seme, which made their romance all the more compelling. Attitude, dialogues, personality, bodies and faces, good.
The relationship development progressed nicely. Not too slow, not too fast. It felt like they smoothly fell in love. With no big cliche "I like you" announcement but rather a naturally occurring set of events that made both characters realize they are in love with each other and ultimately confessing. The moment they did so was just right.
The plot was made for success. High school romance, popular guys, kouhaixsenpai, competitiveness, cuteness, fluffiness, hornyness. Nice mix and just enough of everything. Easy to follow, easy to read. Cute, fun, sexy, romantic. Just lovely.
The sex was hot enough but mostly cute, positions were nicely drawn and made sense. Love how the focus was made on the emotional bond they both have. Loved how the emotional bond they have with each other made the sex better. Love how they showed the Seme looking at the cumming face of the Uke rather than showing us, the readers, the Uke directly cumming. Chapter 5, page 27.
Sometimes it was hard to keep up with the close ups, wasn't sure which body part belonged to who. Same with the dialogues. Then again, there were few moments like this an a casual reread lifted any doubts.
Good read. Left a good impression. I'm satisfied, though I have a small "want more" yearning...
Story about love between a demon and a human child.
Honestly... reading the description got me skeptical since I thought this would have pedo vibes but it definitely didn’t. Just read it and see.
The art is mystical and fluid, a bit fluffy too. I liked it.
The characters are passionate and sweet.
The relationship development is bittersweet and magical.
The plot is entrancing, very compelling. The storytelling is great and the dialogues gives us insight into the minds of the characters.
Left despair as an aftertaste, yet it was lovely.
Good read. Worth reading once.
