Natsuki and Takumi have been friends since childhood, but is 'being friends' applicable in Natsuki's case? He's been harbouring his secret feelings towards Takumi ever since they first met. "I want to protect him now" is how much love Natsuki feel towards his dear friend... Who keeps getting into troubles that is. Is it even possible to confess and express the kind of love Natsuki feel towards the slow and naive Takumi? Just as the title suggested, 'The Falcon Hides his Love'.
The art in this manga is exactly like the old manga art style. But the anatomy was great unlike other mangas with old art style, so I can say that this manga is definitely a great art piece if we're taking it from the past's art style. It was yet Mito Hitomi's great work if we compare it with their other works, but the art is definitely worthwhile.
The smut scene was rather vanilla, but it wasn't written properly on how the two protagonists struggle in attempting their first same sex intercourse. Thus, I do not recommend this to new BL readers. Other than that, it's your typical yankee uke of all times. Though taking it from 2000's perspective again, the authenticity is definitely there.
Not feeling as much with the plot lines though. After finishing reading the manga, you'll get the feeling of "Eh, that's it?". It's not that it was poorly written in terms of details, but we need more into the story. For this I suggest that the mangaka should've written more about Takumi's narrative to develop his character better in this story. It might as well been the scanlation team's mistake in forgetting to upload the extra chapter. Well, that's in case there is any written by the mangaka.
Otherwise, it is a good manga to read in your free time. Even though the total chapters are 6, you'll reach the ending of the story without even realizing it as the story dynamics just gets you addicted to know more about the story. I also don't recommend this especially to those who wishes to speedrun through all their want to read list... Take your time reading and you'll get the story. 2 star off for the lack of content
