Ok so, the big controversy about this anime is the age gap. Everyone is making a big fuss about it, but I won't get into any of that in this review. I am personally ok with such age gaps and rather enjoy them even; if you're not and are absolutely convinced that it is not ok, just skip over this anime.

Alright, starting this review, I have been excited about this anime since last year and I couldn't really wait to see it because I felt like ugh, finally a classic, typical, shoujo plot. We've been missing those for a really long while now. After having ... finished this anime, I am gonna say that just for the concept and plot, I would've normally given it a 7/10. Regrettably, the poor execution, direction and animation made me downgrade it to a 5. The animation was barely anything professional.

I am cutting this anime some slack while being hard on it at the same time. That is because we don't normally get anime series with such plots and I would very much like to encourage it. I can also imagine that not a lot of money was put into it, which made the overall quality of the anime just about acceptable. There are some animation mistakes, but I am trying to give them a break because of what I've mentioned above.

The ultimate reason it became a 5, is because it seriously could have been much better, and because it didn't live up to its full potential. That affected the enjoyment part of it a bit. HOWEVER, speaking from a shoujo enjoyer perspective, it hit some really nice marks for it. It won't disappoint in terms of romance events and scenes. If you're craving some physical romance instead of the common innocent love that's usually presented in other anime, I would recommend this anime for you.

tl;dr > romance scenes are nice, but production quality falls short. Nonetheless, still enjoyable.

If you're a yaoi veteran.. prepare to be disappointed

I, like many fujoshis/fudanshis, am pretty ecstatic about the recent boost in the making of yaoi animes (it's about time, amirite) so if you've been a yaoi fan for a long time, read a lot of manga, saw all the classic yaoi animes .. just know this is nothing like them.

I can see that it is a clear attempt to beeee like them, but not really. the story can be pulled from anyone's ass and the sex scenes are, well, I can only describe them as being animated by virgins.


anyway the only case I'd recommend this anime ... is if you're thirsty for yaoi and you've already watched everything else. ENJOY.

I can't believe this OVA doesn't have a review yet!
Oh well I guess I'll be the first. I'm predominantly writing this review just to get the word out there about this OVA.

Are you a female? frustrated about how ecchi in anime almost always favors the male audience (like 95% of the time!)? over-sized boobs and annoying random female characters (That don't even act like an actual female!) everywhere? not to mention the random yuri that pops up from time to time =.='

Well fear not!! hope is not all lost in the ecchi category that it is directed towards the female population!! because let's be honest, ... every girl wants some hot material on the side when watching a romance :'3

It's like reading a smutty shoujo manga, except that it is anime! and the art is actually pretty good! the characters are also attractive! although the action doesn't start till the second episode, but it is well built, worth while and I personally recommend it.

I thought the day would never come where I'd find a female-friendly ecchi anime :'3 but oh well ! I am NOT disappointed!
I hope you girls will enjoy it as much as I did :3

P.S:

I'd like to add that the anime is much shorter than the game (yes the anime is an adaptation of a game) It doesn't explore all the other characters it just takes one route and sticks to it.

Mujihi na Anata, The sequel to Mujihi na Otoko is a very attractive and compelling story ..

Even though there wasn't much action in the Prequel Mujihi na Otoko, Mujihi na Anata includes a more "vicious" approach from the semee to the uke.

Aikawa Kuon, The Semee, gets more possessive and more "tenacious" of his partner. Shirahane Nanao, the uke, has his past scars revealed.

The Story is very Catchy, Nanao, who has always been on top is now being pushed below by the ferocious Kuon who seems to have this hunger for Nanao. An 8 for the story.

The art was amazing, as expected from Sakuraga Sensei, ... but the feet art work needed more work, so I gave it an 8.

The characters are your typical semee and uke so I gave it a 7. Although Sakuraga Sensei has this thing of having the younger be the semee . Kuon's character is very straightforward and honest. It is also a very appealing character. Nanao, although might come out as a strong character, he is actually very fragile.

Overall, I'd recommend this manga to any yaoi lover. not only for the smut but also for the story.

I hope you'll enjoy this manga as much as I did (Y) :)

"Koi Ja nai kedo" is the sequel of "Kirai ja nai kedo" and I have to admit the story gets more interesting and entertaining by the volume .. iie, by the chapter!

I absolutely loved reading Koi Ja nai kedo and I would recommend the series in general to any yaoi or shounen ai lover ..

The only bad thing I found about this series is the arrangement of events ... sometimes it felt like I had absolutely no idea what the hell was going on but then I'd catch up. It definitely needs editing in that criteria but other than that I really enjoyed reading ... it!

That is all :)
Have fun reading it Minna ^_^ !
