Hanami's manga / #Sexy Seme(7)

When university student Hinata finds out that his best friend Yuuma is in love, he tries to get a girlfriend so that he could have the experience necessary to help Yuuma get with his crush. The only problem is that Yuuma’s in love with Hinata. This was a cute story, Hinata was a bit dense but still cute. How could he have missed all those signals, and ever misinterpret the kissing and touching. Yuuma is one sexy bastard, I could relate to Hinata’s reluctance to have him stolen. Also I loved the conflict of interest and the bad advice as a result.

This manga includes four stories. The first story follows Azuma Shirou. Azuma has a glasses fetish and for some reason his eyes seem to follow Sorachi Satoshi. This story was so adorable! Sorachi is the cutest damn thing ever. He’s so squishable! I loved how both were so insecure and jealous, it was endearing. The second story follows Minami Kazuhiko as he always seems to stumble upon Sawai being confessed to. He and Sawai have a sexual relationship, which the adorably dense Minami interprets as just Sawai killing time before he gets a girl. Of course his assumption is completely off. The third story is about detective Saegusa Noritaka, who developed a crush on the café worker Nanase Ikumi. And finally, the last story is about Saegusa’s assistant Kirishima. Kirishima has had a crush on his neighbor for eight years. When Shirai Tetsuji is leaving for college, they are unwilling to let go of each other. This manga’s sequel is Wild Darling.

Okumura Ritsuto has the power to charm people to the point of obsession. When helping his cousin charm a client and ends up being stalked by the client. At that moment a mysterious man named Luka appears and tells Ritsuto to command the stalker to leave. Turns out Luka possesses the same ability as Ritsuto and they are destined partners. Some of the descendants of the Okumura family have the power to enchant others. This was really good, I wish it was longer! Warning: attempted gang rape.

A collection of oneshots. (1) Kouta’s family borrowed a large sum of money and left him the debt. Sonomura Takahisa, his senpai, get him a part-time job as a gay AV actor. After the first one became a success they continued making videos. Senpai was clever using the AV excuse to sleep with him, but at the same time he never forced him. I liked him for being respectful. (2) Masaomi is the new president of a love hotel after his father left with his lover on a vacation. Tsushima, the hotel manager, has him try out various products so he that Masaomi knows the kind of things people do at love hotels. Another clever seme, using the excuse of showing the products to have sex with Masaomi. (3) Mimatsu Keizou’s family owns a liquor store. One day while delivering he picks up a student, Higuchi Yuuma. He has several fantasies regarding Higuchi and eventually those fantasies get fulfilled. Meh. (4) Sex club owner Miyatsuki seems to be interested in the new worker Aomura Jyunta. Turns out Jyunta helped boss when he was younger. Jyunta was way too innocent and cute. (5) Nagaoka wants to become the assistant of his favorite mangaka Chigaya Senri. Sensei is looking for someone to succeed him as he’s not inspired to draw anymore. This one was probably the funniest just because of the training regimen for becoming a mangaka. (6) Isawa goes to a hot spring and becomes interested in young part-timer Mashita Shitsuki. My least favorite of the bunch, it just wasn’t my cup of tea. (7) Kousuke is in love with his friend Sonokawa Yukihi. He wanted to confess during the graduation trip but chickened out. During the hot springs trip Kousuke gets his chance to confess and go further with Yukihi. I liked at the end how lovey dovey they were.
