RoseMary's manga / #Showbiz(179)

20th Century // School Life // Slice of Life // Romance // Change in art style // Character Growth // Rivals Become Lovers // False Personality // Family Drama // Hidden tragic past // Multiple couples // Pregnancy // Time Skip ((*..*)) TBH, I found the beginning very boring. I had a hard time reading it, but later it gets a lot better with the progressing of the story and when new characters are introduced. I loved step-siblings Tsubasa and Kazuma, so adorable!! That's why I began to enjoy the reading around ch 50 (ch 48-57, approximately), when there is the development of their relationship! From ch 59, the story goes back to the main couple and finally it becomes more interesting and mature; it goes much more in depth, dealing with more serious issues and all the family drama. Maybe it's not a story I'd re-read, but overall it's good! Adapted to Anime - I think the beginning is funnier to watch in the anime, rather than in the manga, where it seemed boring to me, as I said...

Pheromones always are a dangerous matter - Sensei emits many pheromones and on crowded trains he always finds himself in dangerous situations: one morning a tall guy helps him and it turns out he's one of his students...not only, he's also quite fierce and determined to make sensei his boyfriend! At school things are going to be very hot!! ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ

Reverse Harem - At the beginning it felt as if I was playing an otome game, with all those hot guys lol This was hilarious! Prepare yourself to see how many times a girl can be rejected but still manages to stay positive Σ(￣∇￣") haha Probably I'd give up soon, but sometimes it seems the persistent type can actually conquer the prey (ღゝ◡╹)ノ Anyways, I liked all the characters and I wanted to see more about the president! About Shuuji, I can't ask for more, since he has his own story in the spin-off "Stand by Me", which is actually a BL!! I think that's so cool for people who love both genres!! ➤ Spin-off: Stand by Me

Model x Model ➤ Adapted from Ai o Chodai! (Josei) - Story of Mie's childhood friend and ex-housekeeper, Hatta Shuuji, who was scouted on the streets to become a model. Since he's a soothing guy who takes care of people around him, he's now asked by the agency to take care of the problematic but hot model Haru, who has a very bad attitude but actually seems to be dealing with some tragic, past issues... After reading "Give me Love!", I was so excited about this spin-off, which is a BL and I think that's really cool for people who love both genres, but for now only three chapters are available┗( T﹏T )┛ Anyways, I love this story!! 3 Volumes (Complete) - Raw: 77mh.com / colist_207470.html

(()) Actor x Actor || Age Gap || Older Seme "Young actor Hinase and experienced actor Saiga are secret lovers." - The uke, Akira, is mischievous but it's so cute how he feels insecure and jealous because of his "oyaji" lover, Saiga, who always seems so calm to the point of making him so angry! "Drop dead!! Lewd old man!!" haha Well, anyway, talking about old man, Saiga is seriously hot as hell!

╰╮ High-schooler Takashi wants to become a famous rock star, so he decided to drop out of school and form the band "Flowers of Romance" with guitarist Yoruwa, ex-member of "Red Rose". From now on, Takashi will be known as Carlo, his stage name. In the meantime, another ex-member of "Red Rose", the vocalist Hanaomi, already formed his band "Ruby Tuesday"... ➸ So, I liked this manga because of two reasons. Firstly, I liked the art: I love old-style drawings...they have a different touch. Secondly, I liked the musical component, as I like to read stories about music bands. But I have to say that I expected something more! In the beginning I liked how the focus was on music, how they had to pick out a band name, decide on their image and so on...I liked the music scene. Yoruwa even mentioned X Japan, so I thought this would be interesting. However, I wasn't satisfied with the ending! This story needed more depth, more development in the characters' feelings. [May spoil] There were some things lacking here and there. And btw, what's up with those messy relationships?? So, Carlo's first time was with Hanaomi, whose first man was Ayabe. That very Ayabe then tried to do it with Carlo. Yoruwa did it with Hanaomi (in the past) and Carlo (now), who both are in love with him. Now Yoruwa says that he loves Carlo but that he's not a homo. While Hanaomi sleeps around with just about anyone (with his fan, his manager, his new guitarist, Ayabe again...) Σ(￣∇￣") Anyway, returning to the ending, Yoruwa and Carlo didn't even play together at the live, because Yoruwa went to the hospital to visit Hanaomi, who had just been in an accident. So Carlo had to play with Hanaomi's guitarist, Toe, and Ayabe...And what is more, the reason for Hanaomi's accident is still unknown! After that live, I think the author should have done a time skip or something to at least let us know how the band was doing after and give us some extra about their love life as well! I liked Carlo and Yoruwa together, so I wanted more! [Oh and this is a stupid thing actually, but it bothered me: why did they have to cut Yoruwa's hair? That new look was terrible! I preferred him with long hair!] In conclusion, I think it's ok to read it, if one likes stories about music industry and relationships between members. After all, it was funny. But it's also true that there are better stories. ➤ Included a oneshot called "Smoke and Diamond" - Story of a teacher and a biker.
