tsukineko's manga / #stepbrothers(8)

2.5 stars. I like the scenario, but the way it's written and drawn feels really stilted and disjointed. Maybe sensei was going for a pared down, artsy feel, like flicking through some black & white photos or something, but imho she didn't really pull it off. Either that, or she was in a mega rush to meet the deadline and created it in 10 mins flat. Either way, it ended up feeling like just the bare bones of a story. As a result, as much as I like the scenario, (and also the little twist at the end), I couldn't really get into this. Minase Masara Sensei can do better.

It was too short, making the characters appear one dimensional, and the plot seem rushed. Good-looking guys, though hehe.

Incomplete at time of reading, so have only read the first chapter (up to page 38). It's funny, smexy, and I like the drawings, so I'll defo continue with it once it gets updated. Too early to rate, but it'll probably end up being 3 stars.

From the few pages I saw, I really want to read this. Even if there's not much h, I really like the characters, and their story seems like it could be quite a realistic, healthy relationship, (with the added spice of the age gap and the fact that they're stepbrothers).

This sounds really angsty. I'm looking forward to reading about the poor seme who waits 8 years for his love to finally be requited, (without ever pushing the uke into anything before he's ready). Also, apparently their mum is totally supportive when she finds out about them, so I'm looking forward to that, too. Apparently there's not much sex though, but you can't have everything I guess lol.
