First of all, this is pure comedy. With a little bit of hard sex scenes, but it's pure gold in its entirity.
I think the trama was pretty original and hilarious: a boy (Hachimaki, what a ikemen*) comes out nowhere asking an openly gay classmate (Ten) if he can have sex with him. In the university caffeteria. Everybody was staring at them and Ten just took him and ran away, giving more to talk LOL. In this talk it's when the confussion begins: Ten told Hachimaki that he can't give him what he want, 'cause he's a neko (or the passive in the relationship). Hachimaki ... apologizes for his attitude and tell Ten that he will take things more calmly. What Ten thought was: oh well, we're going to know each other and then have sex. What Hachimaki mean: I'm going to give you fish treats 'cause you're a neko, so we become closer and you'll let me pet you. Hachimaki even got a cat book and make notes on it, talking about their progress in the relationship XD.
And that's all I can write without any spoilers, if this got your attention please give this manga an opportunity. It's worth it, you'll laugh and I promise that you'll reaally love Hachimaki.
The art have nothing speciall but the story compensates it.

First of all, I don't know why this manga doesn't get the recognition it deserves.
It's a good, light hearted story about two classmates, becoming friends and wanting to spend more time together, know each other and eventually falling in love.
Of course, in the beginning that love it's one sided but as the time goes by everything ends working out for them.
Spoiler:
I thought it was hilarious that Yamauchi accepted Kimura confession just because he was thinking "let's see how much he can takes before breaking up". Like, literally avoid thinking about his own feelings, and just go with the flow. For Yamauchi surprise, he ended ... up having feelings for Kimura too, as the relationship lasted longer than he expected (again, lol). There's nothing much going on after that to be honest. There's no character development or a love triangle, everything it's just ok.
I think it's majestic that the same phrase in the beginning of the manga is utilized in the end of it, with a really cute twist.
It's a good manga if you want to read something short and light.
It's very enjoyable, it includes a sided-story about two support characters that I don't remember because they weren't introduced XD.
The art doesn't have nothing special, but I think simple is good.

tf is wrong with Kurahashi sensei? why on earth would she think this was worth to publish it? in the name of BL this manga is just disrespectfull.
From the start we have Sudou who bulllies Shouta plenty most of time, as it was some kind of funny thing to do, like when you were a kid and have someone that used to bother you and some random adult say: oh that's because he likes you! he wants your attention! so fucked up to think like that being an adult. But, I can understand if you're a kid or a teen, 'cause you're just learning ... about how to deal with your feelings. But in this story, they're both grown ups. And Shouta just let Sudou mess with him, 'cause he doesn't know how to talk to people. That's the reason besides his silence and anxiety: he doesn't know how to talk to other people than his family, so he let Sudou bully him.
And that's the minor problem in here: there's rape (I mean Sudou LITERALLY ASKED to Shouta if he can rape him :)))), there's a scene where Sudou masturbates Shouta IN FRONT OF SHOUTA LITTLE SISTER. Of course it's okay, 'cause she didn't see anything, they were doing it inside the Kotatsu, and besides that she's just a child so why would she understand. And the only thing I could think while reading this shit was WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU KURAHASHI, geez.
This isn't worth your time unless you're into this kind of crap.
In that case I recommend you therapy. For real. And be tf away from children. It's not okay to have sex or anything related in front of them "because they don't understand".
This is just a poorly poorly managed manga. It could have been so much better.
Even the explanation of why Sudou acts like a jerk in front of Shouta is shitty.
I'm disappointed.

First of all: THIS IS SUCH A SWEET SWEET STORY OMG I didn't expected that things would be so smooth and cute, everything in this manga is just right. The plot goes like this: Uematsu (40 years old) is a workaholic, due to that he eventually lost interest in maintain a relationship with his family, and ended up divorced. Since he doesn't know how to cook, he goes three days a week to have dinner in a restaurant. Asahikawa (22 years old I think) works in that restaurant and notices that, that salaryman that comes often to eat looks really tired, and found himself in ... need to try to cheer him up, by bringing any kind of conversation.
As the days goes by, Uematsu notices that he feels better when talking to Asahikawa, he thinks it's like his therapy time, because he forgot how to talk to other people outside than work, he is just excited about this new ¿friend?.
As he becomes more like a lively person, everyone at Uematsu work space notices that there's something changing in his attitue, in his aura. He looks more energized even when the work day is over.
The bond between Uematsu and Asahikawa get stronger, they exchange contact information and eventually they end up going out in a date.
That's all I can write without any spoilers.
It's so well handled this thing about age differences, but this time for my surprise it isn't approached in a negative way: Uematsu is glad that he is older, so he can think about this relationship calmly. He have the experience, and he knows what Asahikawa feels about him. In fact (SPOILER!) he isn't surprised at all when Asahikawa tells him that he is bi and have a crush on him. He managed the whole situation pretty wise, he didn't doubt or exagerated this age difference thing. Asahikawa is an adult too, and besides that he is almost always flushed because of how cool (from his perspective) Uematsu is, he is aware of his choice, even there is an explanation of why Uematsu caught his attention.
I've got to say that there's nothing special in the art, but the story really compensate it.
There's nothing much to say about characters, at some point the daughter of Uematsu appears, but this is in order to help him to know his feelings about Asahikawa.
The enjoyment is 100/10 for me as well, I don't care if you think I'm exagerating, I think this is such a heartwarming and calm manga.
Anyway, I hope this review does it justice to this masterpiece.
Please read it! :)

I'm seriously thinking that this is the sweetest BL I have ever read so far. (Like, it's really side-to-side with Kimi ni todoke, I know they're different genders, but if you read it you'll see the similarities too).
I love how the protagonists are so different yet they get along so well, as the time goes by. The mangaka did a great job, didn't miss any detail. As the story moves on, there's an explanation for every act, every tought.
And the realization that maybe they're in love with each other but they just don't know how to act when they're together...they're so innocent and cute, ... gosh.
Of course, Sasano is the one part that in the beginning of the story already knows that he likes a boy. But for him, it's not like he is labelling himself, but realizing that, that particular boy has something that attracts him. Sasano tells himself that it's because he lives in a house full of girls, he's used to like cute things, but in reality is that Koga is just so beautiful, have a magnificent presence, that eventually he just fall for him. And in the other hand, Koga knows that he's liked, there's a lot of confession that girls make for him. Lot of boys feel uncomfortable around him, 'cause he's being annoying by just rejecting the confessions. But it's different when he's around Sasano...and he just want more of that peacefull feeling.
Please, give this manga a chance. It won't disappoint you at all, I promise.

How come there's no review of this manga? The story it's absolutely precious and naive! I loved it, and the art omg, I fall in love with every character that Suzumaru sensei draws!
It's so sad that it's really short, I wish that someday it will continue!
It's about two friends, discovering that they're falling in love for each other, but not finding a way to telling to themselves. There's no time for drama, just lot of love and cuteness! haha.
Wish this review at least make someone get interested in this beautiful manga! :)
Oh, and btw there's no hard yaoi scenes or whatsoever, it's just focussed ... about friendship, trust and comfort.

First of all, this manga is way better than it seems. At first I wasn't sure about it, I mean, I was afraid about how Mamita would turn out this story. And it surprised me SO WELL. It's so easy to emphatize with the main characters(specially with Soushi).
Words are not enough to describe it. It's such a warm, cute and soft love story, about friends that eventually discover their true feelings about each other. I really liked the fact that there's no "but I'm a man, I can't fall in love with another man!" line. It's not bad, but you see it so often in ... this kind of soft BL story that really make me feel a little bit sad about it. I mean, it doesn't have to be that hard and difficult to be with the one that you love the most.
It really blown me out how Mamita didn't put in this manga any stereotype about metalheads. He turns out to listen to Metal music, but besides that he enjoys the gender (I'm taking about Soushi) there's a story behind that choice.
Kento make such a big (and a little bit dramatic) entrance in Soushi's life, that Soushi didn't have any other option that letting him in, and take care of him...
It's just a beautiful story that I really wish it would have more recognition in the BL manga gender.

I can't believe I haven't read this manga untill today! It was so short and yet it doesn't feel like that as you keep reading it. Everything evolves slowly and in a pretty innocent way. Both of the main characters are very loveable, for real.
I really don't know how to describe it, more than such a heartwarming and naive story, not only about sex, but about discoverying it, and discoverying your body and what (and who) you like. I recommend to read it when you want or need to read something soft, short and funny. It's also a good manga to begin with BL, if ... you're curious about that gender.
I hope this review is helpfull to anyone who comes to seek some guide or information about this manga.
Best wishes to you all, XOXO.

I think it's a nice story about two boys from "different worlds" (one is popular and the other belongs to a "cinema club" so, he isn't). It envolves love, and it becomes pretty sexu4l but that's why we read it, I can only assume. I still don't understand why in most every yaoi (Junjou romantica, Dakaretai Otoko 1-i ni Odosarete Imasu, for example) there's always a rape. I'm not sure about how to feel about it, because the one who forces the other part eventually apologizes and recognize that what he did was clearly wrong. And with that the story goes, but they put it ... in a way that seems almost natural, it's...weird. Anyways, they both recognize their mistakes and eventually make it work.

OMG I can't even put in word what this manga make me feel!
It's absolutely beautiful how the story goes, Haruna is not like any other manga shoujo protagonist and it shows. Yoh is the most absolutely caring and loving boyfriend I have ever seen! He is shy and the first impression that he makes is that he is rough and cold, but as you get to know him, you know that is not true. He just cares about everyone he loves.
I truly loved to read this, this is definitely my comfort zone manga.
Whenever I feel a little bit sad and need to ... cheer up, I know I can read this and everything will be okay.
It has the perfect proportion of comedy, romance, innocence, and a little bit of drama, but nothing to worry about.
Whenever you feel like you want to know there's good in this world, there is a happy ending for anyone, try reading this.
