Hatsuai

Complete | fuzuki atsuyo | 2006 released

Kashiwaya is captivated by his childhood friend, Hibino, adam's apple. Thinking he is a vampire he decides to lick it only to leave both of them unsatisfied. Comedy, weird uke, naive uke, high school romance, childhood friends The art of this series is adequate considering the date of publishing. It's not as stylish, polished, and detailed as you would find for a work nowadays. Regardless, I think it really adds to the appeal of this work. Proportions were sometimes a tad bit off, but nothing too noticeable. Expressions were stoic, but it adds to the humor and conveys the feelings of the characters very well. The characters were... quite peculiar. The uke has traits that I haven't find in any other uke, naive and innocent yet not stupid and girly. Totally loved him! As for the seme, he is an understanding, loving, accepting character. While reading this, I was thinking "ah, they make a great match!" The relationship development progressed very smoothly. I loved reading the titles of the chapters, they made sense and added to the anticipation. I loved their confessions, it suited their personalities perfectly. The plot was compelling. I don't think i've ever found a plot like this in a high school romance series. The story telling relied mostly dialogues so you will have to infer the thoughts and thinking process of the characters, I think this makes it better because everyone can have their own opinions on the characters. This series employs dry humor, I think adults who read this will fully understand the real appeal this series has. I'm satisfied with where this took me. The amount of chapters was good. I don't feel a "want more" yearning, but I don't feel bummed out either. It was a good read. I wouldn't want to miss out on reading this at least once.
