Is it possible to find someone who can make you feel worth to be loved again just after the break up?
This manga probably holds the answer of that question for some of you.
Kikuchi who has just been dumped by his girlfriend, suddenly finds out that Akaboshi, his adorable student, is quite cute. Unfortunately, Akaboshi belongs to Kikuchi's friend, Sera. But one day, Akaboshi sees Sera walking with another girl. With his heart getting ripped, Kikuchi's embrace unconciously feels warm.
It's hardly to understand that Kojima Lalako considers this manga to be yaoi. On the 1st chapter it just emotionally touched my heart. The story
...
filled with many emotional scenes (they even could make me cry) and i really enjoyed it 'til the very end. I just can't wait for its sequel.
Kikuchi really is a hot teacher. I mean, i would've died if i get taught by him! He's in love with a highschool stundent that i think it's so honest maybe because his pure feelings towards Akaboshi . Akaboshi himself, i find out he's really quite and soft guy.Somehow, I just could feel his soft voice even he really doesn't exist LOL
For the artwork, i think Kojima Lalako's tried her very best. The cover shows the calmness just like the filling and feelings of the manga. And some scenes include amazing background. The house, the leaves are just amazing. There's a rainy scene too that i found it was quite smart. I rarely see the rainy scene in this type of manga which can drive more dramatized atmosphere. But in some artwork it just doesn't feel right because of the hand that is too big and doesn't sychronize well with the head and body
Overall, Kimi to Parade will touch you right in your heart. It's really recomended to read

"But why did you come to the school roof, if you are no good with high places?"
"Because it was you to call me here."
Startled by Keita's reply, Genji's perspective about Keita, a boy who likes to bother him everyday, changes ever since. These two middle school frenemies then got separated until they meet again in highschool. Genji's curiosity about Keita's answer six years ago is getting closer to the conclusion.
I think the story is not so different with other yaoi mangas. You know, a boy who doesn't know at first his sexual orientation then a friend comes and makes him realize that he is a
...
gay. It's still cliché but nearly in the end you will find a shocking twist that will make you find that this is quite good.
Yamada Papiko unquestionably, through her drawing, can really describe beautiful and handsome boys! Who knows that Keita will turn into a super hot nerdy guy (KYA!). And on 1st chapter, i really want them to stay as middle school kids. They are so much handsome in their middle school appearances. The story also includes Genji's flashback whe he was in kindergarten. That scene is kawaii overload for me (T~T). But i must say, in some of her girls drawing, they look like crossdressed guys with too many blush on and overdepicted eyelashes.
Overall, i think Dounimo Nannai Soushi Souhai will be a good pick for those who are temporary boring with shounen ai manga. The sex scene is quite hot and can make you can't handle Keita's handsome face. I'm really looking forward for Papiko's brand new mangas

I'm always in love with Nojiko's art and waiting for something new. And finally, a new completed one is out. "Kurayami ni Strobe"
To be honest when acmedan first posted this, i thought it would be just oneshot because they said so. But after i read it, i thought it wasn't finished yet and then, the 2nd chapter was out.
Kurayami ni Strobe tells you about Arata and Shoutarou. Arata loves to take pictures of boys in his highschool and get the benefit by selling them to the girls. Since junior highschool his "lens" always landed on Shoutarou but he just stayed in the closet until
...
one day Shoutarou confessed his feelings to him.
I think Nojiko really wants to do something different here by describing how gays' life in the closet would be. Arata is very cautious by his feelings and always figures out how to not show that he's into Shoutarou. It's 180° opposite with Shoutarou (and i must tell you, HE'S SUCH A CUTIE!). This innocent straight-talker guy isn't shy to show up his feelings and what he's gonna say ignorantly. And you completely can imagine how red Arata's face is through the pages. Shoutarou reminds me of Misato from Junketsu Drop (a yaoi manga by Watarumi Naho and Kisaragi Manami). They have the similarity in appearance and about 10% of Misato 's personality is in Shoutarou.
Kurayami ni Strobe is light, fun, and enjoying. You can go through the pages with smile and laughter because of the ridiculousness Arata and Shoutarou make. But there are some clichés of boys love manga that make you say "Oh... this again". Some readers actually want to know more about the relationship between other characters in this story, Sawayama and Hase. And about the kiss, i think that Nojiko now understands how to express the kiss for boys love manga. Don't you think the kissing scene in Endou-kun No Kansatsu Nikki is a little bit inappropiate for a shounen-ai manga?
About the art, ughh, you really don't need to put your doubt against Nojiko, right? her sketch-styled drawing is ALWAYS amazing! She really can express the loneliness, emptiness, and joy perfectly.
Overall, this manga is 8/10 worth to read. It's not so special about the story -compared with the feelings you get after read Endou-kun or Yozora ni Sumikko de- but it's so worth to give a try.
