(1) Kagura Naoto is a very wealthy student who transferred to a public school. He fell in love with his classmate, Hayakawa Kou, and he will do whatever it takes to be together with Kou. This is one of the funniest mangas I’ve read in a while. Kagura is so adorable and over the top. Kou is a good match for Naoto, he’s serious and honest, and attempts to keep Naoto grounded. Watching him attempt to be a ‘normal’ guy was endearing and totally hilarious. His parents are also the best characters ever. They’re supportive of their son’s relationship and they are just so freaking hilarious I can’t even deal with them. It’s refreshing to see a story where rich people aren’t bad. (2) Vice captain of the judo club Ihara Koichiro is in love with his childhood friend, and captain of the judo club, Ninomiya Soji. When Soji declares that he has no patience for men who are weaker than him, Koichiro takes it as if he could beat Soji he could become his lover. What follows is something so facepalm worthy, you just can’t look away. Jeez, when Soji said Koichiro was slow he wasn’t kidding. The boy is so dense it’s actually really sad, but also kind of funny. (3) High school student and baseball player Uno Koji only has baseball in his mind. When his mother hires a tutor, Noda Kaoru, its love at first smell for Koji. He becomes entranced with Kaoru’s scent. It was an unsusal way of falling in love with someone but hey, to each their own. I enjoyed this story and I liked how their relationship kind of developed. I enjoyed Kaoru’s teasing, I thought it was funny.

Ochiru Seija no Seppun
Three stories that had the ukes be the sex slaves of the semes. (p.10-33;34-41;101-105). Okano Hiroyuki is a social studies instructor that becomes the sex slave to his student Tokiwa Munehisa, after he is molested in a train. I’m kind of indifferent to this story. The whole ‘I bully you because I like you’ thing is a hit or miss for me, and in this story it was a definite miss. Tokiwa was such a dick, I wanted to jump in and strangle him. To me there wasn’t any connection between those two characters, their relationship just wasn’t interesting to me. I liked Tokiwa’s interaction with the other couple more than his interactions with Okano. 3/5. (p.44-69;70-97). Nishio Atsushi is irritated by the fact that his classmate, Yoshino Yuto is constantly staring at his friend Tokiwa. After catching him peeping on Okano and Tokiwa having sex, Nishio makes Yoshino his slave. This was my favorite of the three stories. While Nishio was less of an ass than Tokiwa I still felt really bad for Yoshino. Nishio has a turbulent family situation, which causes him to take it out on Yoshino. I liked this more than the other stories because the characters and their relationship were more developed. (*Spoiler Alert: At least by the end of it, Nishio realizes he has feelings for Yoshino and graduates him from slave to lover.*) 4/5 (5-6). Shizuki Haru hates his physics teacher, Yamada Akihiko, because he’s convinced he’s gay. He harasses the teacher in various ways and gets divine justice in the form of becoming the teacher’s plaything. My least favorite of the three. Shizuki is a little shit, Yamada is hateful and there was no reason for Shizuki to be subjected to Yamada’s bullying. 2/5 I would recommend this if you like: dominant, possessive semes that like to bully their submissive ukes, bondage and the use of sex toys.
