pinkstarred's manga / #Art is bomb(75)

This was one of my first yaoi mangas and it is still one of my absolute favorites. What a gem. The sweet love unfolds slowly and naturally you see their relationship blossom as they get closer. A perfect blend of shounen ai with yaoi, not super spicy but satisfying and sweet and unrushed. The art style is endearing and oh so perfect for this fluffy adorable pair. It's simple line drawing and unique style is refreshing and whimsical. I absolutely adore this sweet and sloppy pairing.

Evocative right from the first page, the beautiful drawings pull you into this tale of unrequited love. The bold style is sexy, masculine and edgy. The story grips you and draws you into a long friendship at the edge of something new. I want more of this quiet story of best friends. Aww, that ending was so lovely. Im so glad their love bloomed. ^ ^

The uke is exactly my type so darn adorable and honest. It developed into such a cute relationship. Found a new favorite sensei the art is bomb and the bishi's are exactly my type. Also it's quite a sexy read and the bullying isn't too violent luckily, and the uke actually questions why he likes his bully. Which is almost never brought up, though it was never answered but at least acknowledged.

So far so good , the characters are full of life and I'm absolutely in love with this mangaka. The art is fantastic and just exactly what I want. The range of expressions are to die for and the characters are just soooo perfect. Its like sensei made these bishi's just for me (￣▽￣). I love them so. Can't wait to see what happens. As we see the MC's start to realize their feelings it's just so cute" Update: pretty manipulative relationship. Pretty messed up actually.

A straightforward and sweet romance with unsaid feelings between childhood friends. No drama just misunderstandings a happy story. I don't know, I liked it but there was something missing don't know why. The whole I like girls except you thing sort of bugged me, don't know why cause usually I don't give a flip. Just a minor itch to an otherwise cute story.

Another great story from sensei. Sweet, cute and nice, no scary stuff here just love with a bunch of spice. (*^o^*)

Cried so much I had to stop because I couldn't see the pages. An incredible story that completely destroys you, heart wrenching and so engaging you won't want to put it down until you see how it ends. There are some really detestable characters that I just can't forgive or understand, but for the most part it takes you into the head of the bad guy and you see inside them what drove their actions and how they think and how they change and overcome. It's painful and hopeful and ends much like real life with so many possibilities. It truely touched me and although I've gotten used to the concrete formulaic endings, I appreciate the vague ambiguity of the future.

I quite love this couple, there's such a sweet genuine affection between them. Even though their original encounter was kind of horrible with Akiyama's friends bullying Shiba they made a real connection. Their interactions are so cute and sincere and the smexy scenes which are very steamy. This unlikely couple with an eager younger seme and delinquent senpai who grow to truely care for eachother. The art is bomb with its expressive unique style that tells the story well and keeps it interesting.

Very quiet and introspective. You see the struggle to change the nature of their relationship. Not a lot happens. The story isn't linear but a collection of interactions. Beautiful sketchy art style and the expressions are great. There's this sultry provocative aura that beckons you. The characterization is a bit lacking, I want to love these guys. Very close, with great potential.
