Nicholas Hale's manga / #Shounen Ai(76)

All stories are such a tease. They end right before anything satisfying happens, but that in itself is the authors style. You won't find anything cliché in this series of stories which really makes this manga unique. If you're looking for something different - yet still intriguing, I recommend reading this.

This manga is honestly amazing. It's not straight out yaoi - or straight out shounen ai. It's a manga that actually focuses on it's amazing story plot as well as the relationship between characters. The art is amazing, the characters are fucking sexy, and although the story mostly consists of teases between the two main characters, the end chapter is rewarding as hell.

Seven Days is about a relationship that begins on Monday who's deadline is Sunday. On Sunday, the relationship ends and all ties are cut. For Seryou Touji, this pattern has repeated itself time and time again. But It's not a game - and he's beginning to lose hope. Is seven days long enough to fall in love? Beautiful story, a must read!

Let me just say, the outcomes for Ichikawa Kei's mangas are always top-tier. Always. You won't ever be disappointed (Unless you came for yaoi - yeah, none of that here.) This is quality work - no clichéd story plots, girly ukes or jerky semes. Blue Sky Complex is a wonderfully thought up and drawn slice of life manga. It's one of those books you wish you could actually hold in your hands.

Why should you read this manga? Because it's written by Ichikawa Kei. Yeah, that basically sums it up.

Love it~

Oh god Ichikawa Kei why do you do this to me.. I'm going to have to wait so long for this update. And then there are so many other manga's you're working on that I want- no I NEED to have updated. I dare say Ichikawa Kei is one of the best or maybe even THE best shounen ai author. (Though she does yaoi too.) In every manga Ichikawa Kei makes, there's this sort of mastery feel to it. Like... it's just.. perfect.

I can say without any uncertainty that this is my most favourite shounen ai. Well, maybe with the exception of Ichikawa Kei's works.. but. Seriously. 19 Days is as good as it gets.

Very unique, love the art and style. The story too is interesting.
