I started reading this when I was younger expecting a bit more yaoi but what I ended up by reading was the story of a man being kidnapped as a child and being fed cakes by the kidnapper so he decided to open up a bakery and ended up working with a gay man, an ex-boxer and a good-at-nothing childhood friend.
Story; 8
I thought it was different from usual and was generally always going in the good direction. It was really interesting how the fact that there was a gay character didn't make rule the series, it was well incorporated. The end did bother me though,
...
it felt so incomplete. For a 4 volumes series it still did pretty well.
Art; 8
I was going to give it a 7 but I reconsidered because all the food looked so delicious and was really well drawn. The expressions too always changed you could feel what the character was feeling. All the main characters looked different too so that made me happy. The art was in general not that pleasing for the eye but it still had its moments, I give it that.
Character; 10
Okay, okay I just really liked the characters they all were very different and special in their own ways and they all had at least a little bit of character development. I did find the devil homosexual a bit silly but it was still endearing to see him change so suddenly and take control in serious situations. Chikage was a very comic relief type of character but was still very likeable in my opinion. I was really sad most of the time for Keiichiro because he never got over his kidnapping and even though he never showed it in front of anybody except Chikage it affected him through his whole life. I think Eiji was my favorite character he had to abandon something he loved and decided to make the best of what he had and just tried really hard in everything he did.
Enjoyment; 8
I really enjoyed the manga, it didn't bring out that many emotions but I still laughed and felt sad at some moments so I think in general it was very well done.
Overall; 8.5
If you're searching for a hardcore yaoi with plenty of gay men and gay sex this is not the manga for you but if you're searching for a kind of..short break manga with plenty of food descriptions this is the one for you.
