tsukineko's manga / #tsundere uke(33)

This uke is the EPITOME of tsundere - totally tsun, then totally dere, then back to tsun lol. I've only read the first chapter of this, as that's all there is for the time being.

Read this after 'Fushigi Amedama'.

After this, read the one shot side story 'Yashiro no Naka'.

3.5 stars. Not bad at all, but too short. Most of them ended somewhat inconclusively. The story about the rebound guy was depressing, because it ended without any proof that the other guy actually loved him and wasn't just precisely using him as a rebound guy. Gah it just pisses me off! He's too hot and kind and mature for that selfish, immature jerk! Lol I need to calm down now...

I thourougly enjoyed this! The fact that it's 'only' shounen ai didn't even bother me! It's adorable and funny, nicely drawn, well paced, has likeable characters - In fact, I relate quite a lot to Aoi: cat like, used to be a little feisty, had to reject and fend off a load of advances from members of the same sex, and after dealing with my internalised homophobia, realised I'm bi lol. Also, Azuma is totally my type, (or one of my types)! Sadly, I'm still waiting for the person who will break down all of my defenses and definitively tame me lol.

Read this for a change to the typical fluffy, romantic, monogamous couple type stories. See how you feel about all the 'free love' being shared around. Personally, I suspect that it may actually be a relatively realistic depiction of the way young gay men act.
