Take On Me is a Hentai, Romantic, Comedy with a pretty interesting story about a relationship between a fairly odd couple. Even though the story may get a bit messy at times, it does come through in the end.

The story consists of 2 decent length volumes about a short, timid boy (Tomonori Tsuda) who ends up in a perverted relationship with a tall amazon (Hikaru Ohno). It basically follows their experiences as they grow attached to one another. Even though this is a Rom/Com, the comedy doesn’t play much of a role but at least the romance is done fairly well. However the ... increasingly perverted nature of the manga does get in the way of the romance. But the plus side is that the story and the developments are pretty good. Nonetheless the story in volume 2 is pretty disjointed as some chapters either have no relevance at all, to the actual story development or just don’t seem to flow well, until the latter half.

The main characters in this manga are fairly appealing in their own way but have one thing in common; they are all “extreme perverts”. Apart from the main 2, the remaining characters do get their own moments but sometimes it doesn’t seem like enough.

For a h-manga I must say that the artwork is the only thing that’s perfect. The characters are drawn so well that you’ll notice each of their defining features and the background environments are fairly detailed as well. With this being a h-manga, of course the sex scenes count towards this score, with the panels being drawn well and arranged in an easy to read manner is such a huge bonus.

Overall Take on Me did feel like your average h-manga with each chapter building up to a sex scene however because this follows a single story there’s a good deal of character development involved. There’s quite a lot of content for the perverted reader to enjoy, like a large number of fetishes and a few whacky moments. Nevertheless this can only satisfy a certain readers taste but this is definitely a must read for those who are into this type of thing.

For being the hentai manga that it is, Take On Me is shockingly good. Good enough even to read casually; as a healthy amount of well written character dialogue, fun characters and pretty damn good art, Take On Me could have perhaps succeeded even without the unbelievable amount of sex. That's the one clincher, however; there is sex, and the issue here may not necessarily be the amount, but what exactly they are doing. When I say this is fetish-heavy I mean it's jam packed with vividly illustrated and even more vividly described sexual acts that cover a large group of people's no-no-my-god-what-are-they-doing list. That ... said, as a flip side, if you happen to be someone like myself who actually has a more, let's say "interesting" taste in their pornography anyways, this is pretty refreshing. It's rare that I find something that caters to my interests, but doesn't cross the line with monsters and blood and whatnot. As far as hentai, this is right up there with Shoujo Sect in terms of quality and enjoyability, and I daresay the best hentai manga there really is out there.

I'll shitlist this so that you don't have to! It has forced cuckoldry snuck in RIGHT AT THE END. Avoid like the black plague if you came here expecting the kinky romance that it sold itself as for the first 10 chapters.

The art is pretty passable for such an old doujin, but the characters are 1-dimensional. The main heroine was pretty likable until she insisted on a MFM threesome.

The story is simplistic. A villain is a villain because they're a villain. The main villain gets raped by the next villain etc. Basic twin trap boys, basic old loli virgin. Not much to see ... here.

Do not remove this review, it is actually helpful and people will read it unlike most reviews.

For the most part, this is a really well done erotic story.

I do want to be upfront to anyone interested in this manga that it does include fetishes, mainly peeing, and it does have a thing about non-consented actions. There's even a whole chapter on a non-consented action happening to one of the characters.

If that sounds like it's too much, this isn't for you. That's okay. At least you know.

Now, for a series that's mainly about sex, I love that nearly every sex scene is different. The author really expresses the body in different positions in a very energetic manner.

I love the main characters: Oono, ... her sister, and Tsuda. They're adorable together and the first few chapters of them getting it on are some of the best. I love all their dynamics and even some of the side characters give interesting flavors to certain chapters.

I will say that the series did go too far three times for me and all three times it was out of left field; it either didn't need to be in it or it went against what the character would have done.

That said, I did enjoy the ending. Pretty typical, but it milked it. The choreography was well done and most of the new characters and events that happened I enjoyed too. It's just that this won't be for everyone.
