hikage_neko's manga / #Yaoi(169)

Ok there we have 2 couples in it and they all belong to the model industry. First couple is Shinpei (uke) and Ryo (seme). A very possessive seme where he literally feels jealous over other guys, even if Shinpei is just talking about them even without any interaction at all. I find their story a bit cliched and too fast forward. I somehow felt it was rushed just to reach the part where they should already feel something for each other. I guess if there are additional chapters to develop it then it might hit the spot. Now for the second couple, Yuuma (uke) and Takanobu (seme). Honestly, I love the second couple better. I feel sorry for Yuuma at first, coz he when he re-confessed his feelings to Taka, he covered his mouth so as not to hear him professing his love. I find it rude for Yuuma's part and sad at the same time coz he wasn't given the chance to confess properly and at the same time, that is enduring the feeling of rejection. Takanayagi, the guy who could have been considered as a third party should there have been a romantic involvement, left our couple and finally made up. Definitely 6 years is worth it after Taka realized that he is seriously in-love with Yuuma. I love both semes coz they are both possessive of their ukes, but they are possessive in different ways. I like Ryo how he is all over Shinpei and our uke finds it unreasonable being him a very jealous boyfriend, but well he is in-love no doubt that's why he doesn't want other people laying eyes on his lover. For Takanobu, I feel sad at first coz he was afraid to admit that there is something for Yuuma, and yet he kept in himself. Until he felt that Yuuma no longers accompany him wherever. whenever thinking that Takanayagi was the reason behind it. Thus given our seme's character, he mustered up his courage and profess his love and admits that he is also in-love with Yuuma. Like they say, you will feel the importance of someone, until you lose them. Overall, it was a good read with, Narusaka Rin as the author no less. The art is definitely always something to look forward to. I hope there would be a manga for their manager so he can also find his lover ^_^

Our dear couple Takashi (uke) and Hayate (seme) made a promise that they will date once a year on Takashi's birthday until our dear uke finds someone he likes more than Hayate. A promise that Takashi held on since high school and despite their circumstance, Takashi even fell deeper in love. Takashi thought to himself that he cannot continue with this unrequited love towards his straight friend, he lied by telling him that he already has someone he loves. Its a sad story of unrequited love having this feeling, that he needs to choose either to pursue his love, or have this kind of love be kept hidden. I still find this story really sad, even after reading it several times already...yet I still love it... I just hope this doesn't happen to me... a re-encounter, promises, once a year and all that ~~sighs~~

I've read this again...and again...and again... It always amazes me how beautiful our dear mangaka Mio Tatsumoto creates these kinds of stories. Its always different and definitely the unique ones which always leaves me in awe. The stories always have a slice of life, its difficult but definitely not impossible. I love our dear couple, Satoshi (seme first then became uke) and Keita (uke first then became seme). Their story started since high school then fast forward to living together after 3 years. After resolving their issues, Keita had this feeling that urged him to top Satoshi which made both of them weird, but were able to overcome those fears by being honest and revealing what they truly feel inside. Sweetness and fluff overload is absolutely felt. I'm glad that I was able to reminisce this again, and finally made a review and comment on this beautiful manga. I hope there's season 2! ^_^

One of CTK's best stories I should say. The story about Jimmy (seme) who was caught stealing someone's wallet by Reese (uke) a middle-aged guy and ex-cop. After Reese saw what Jimmy did, instead of turning him in to the police, he asked him to work at the bookstore and became a mascot and did all the chores for the day. So to get back at Reese, Jimmy decided to break-in at Reese' house but didn't do anything. Jimmy then went to work at the bookstore. At first, he thought that he was just curious about Reese, but then he found himself being attracted to him physically and eventually emotionally. After being a couple, Jimmy kind of slipped-out that he went to Reese' house despite him not being invited in yet to his place. Jimmy confessed what he did, but out of Reese' anger, they didn't talk for several days. They did make up after their fight and eventually Reese' decided to go back to being a cop again. I first saw this story after reading Midnight Rain (way back since I don't know when ^_^). I thought it was almost the same with Midnight Rain, but this really had a lot of fluff in it that even Reese' could barely endure it spoiling Jimmy ^_^ I love how the story developed. Though it was kind of fast-paced (well since Jimmy said he don't know how to take things slow ^_^) the story and the art is definitely something to look forward to!

Its really nostalgic reading this again, and I'm glad that I can finally make reviews compared to the previous sited I'm visiting. When I read this, it kind of reminds me of the anime Yosuga no Sora, a story of brother and sister who totally had a sexual relationship and have been found out and decided to leave town to start their lives as couple. Its the same with this one, though this is a brother x brother relationship, a re-encounter that is. The older brother, Tetsurou (seme) went to overseas for work, then went back to see his younger brother, Kouta (uke). At first, the awkwardness of these two is truly visible, but as time went by, they got comfortable with each other. When the time came that he needs to go back to overseas for his work, they made a special promise that our seme will meet our uke one day and will live together. I liked how the story went, a gentle with a soft and slow-paced kind of plot. Its kinda weird since its an incest, but I guess where they are coming from. They didn't see each other as brothers that's why the longingness lingered and stayed until they grew up. It made them distant since they lived far apart. The yearning, the 'hunger' for each other's love and presence made them cross the line. For them, despite their relationship as long as they are happy, nothing else mattered.

A beautiful love triangle story. The story of Kaichi (uke) who is able to read the minds of other people. Got to reunite with his senpai whom he has feelings for. Then comes in his cousin, Tatsuya who is surprisingly can also read minds though the mystery remains to him as to why he cannot read Kaichi's mind. He then later found out that the one who has the capability to do so, cannot read the mind of the other bearer of such gift. After all the troubles and complications, the story ended well. I got to happen to read this when I started to read yaoi way back. It kinda feels good reminiscing this kind of story despite knowing its a love triangle, but it turned out to be a good one. I love stories with 3rd parties! The thrill excites me on who's gonna win but in the end but I like how the story played out. I love the art, the fluff and how it developed. You can see the progress in every chapter and how the characters managed to keep a good communication after everything that happened between them. Our seme is just mature on how he takes up on things. The usual routine that the uke was dense, but in the end he finally realizes and decides on what he wants and go for it. If you're looking for a story that involves supernatural ability, beautiful art, fluff and smut, cuteness with possessive lovers all around then this one is for you.
