Cute story about a girl that's in love with her teacher. Done if a far better way than any other student x teacher stories I've encountered... Only issue I have with this is that it'd be nice to see how things go once she finishes school, I mean, you can see where things are going, but it would be nice to actually see it happen.

What a beautiful story. The art might have looked weird at times but the story, character development, and pretty much everything else makes up for it by leaps and bounds. I can't say I'm personally close to anyone that's hearing impaired, so I'm not 100% certain that their representation is not just accurate but also tactful. Nevertheless, I have the feeling that they handled things tastefully and compassionately. At the very least, the mangaka managed to write a touching story that can inspire people to make the extra effort to understand those who are different than them. I truly loved it. It'd be great if "another time" came and we could get the younger siblings' story (:

I love this mangaka, they're able to tell pretty much any kind of story, and have you relate to the characters so well, as if it was you going through that experience. Incest is quite a delicate topic for me... most times I've seen it addressed in these stories, it's just a matter of overly emotional people letting their desire for each other get the best of them. But this story was different, you could see how they really struggled to come to terms with those feelings, their own prejudices and the ones from their family and outsiders. These kids had to pay a heavy fee for the mistakes their parents and grandparents made for their own selfish reasons, yet they never blamed them for that, even when said parents weren't supportive. But they still tried to work in a way that everyone would be okay with, even when they wanted to run away, they decided to grow, mature and move forward. There's no way that, as a reader, I wouldn't empathise with their struggle.

Two super adorable stories, connected by the same gay bar. 1st couple: Office worker has become practically a pariah at work with everyone murmuring and avoiding him because he's gay, in comes his newly appointed boss who just happens to be his type. One night when they went out drinking, the man was feeling a bit self conscious and drank more than he planned to; the next day he wakes and realises he can't remember a thing about the night before, but had an inkling it was something wrong considering his boss has been acting quite strangely since then. 2nd couple: Man is depressed after the guy he had thought could have been "the one" was snatched away, on his way to buy some cigarettes a little girl stumbles into him and he walks her back home since it's so late. The girl excitedly introduces him to her dad, who happened to give him that same "he's the one" feeling, he's pretty much his type but it's a bit sad that he may happens to be [possibly/probably] married and have a kid too.

Even if some might consider them boring, I really enjoy reading stories where both parties are completely devoted to each other, it just makes me have a stupid grin on my face the entire time I read it :D I'd like to officially make a request for a sequel featuring those twins x)

Damn it, this would make such an outstanding series... it's not "reverse harem" I'm sure Angel-san Priest isn't harboring any romantic interest with her, he's just that way 'cause that's his archetype. And Mephy-san... well, he's a demon, so interest, lust, it's all the same thing anyway x) But I like that this girl doesn't give a fuck about Mephy-san's innuendos, she's got something she wants and she'll get it no matter what. Too bad it's a oneshot D:

ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS art! Just amazing... I liked how the style seemed almost like a Seinen, so detailed. And the tattoos! Dear Lord stunningly beautiful tattoos. It's such a pity there are no other manga by this author/artist. Man befriends his tattoo artist, despite him being his best friend's estranged brother. In the end, the whole world is gay x)
