Review: This was one of my favourites. A one volume story that was centered around an unexpected kink occurrence and discovery - pantyhose.
You'd think with a premise like that, that this would be like porn without plot, but it's more a feeling of constantly being teased, and the build up of anticipation. I think the thing I liked most were the characters. I rather liked the friendship between the two characters, as well as the side characters (including one minor story which is important to the plot!). There were a couple scenes that were humorous and some that was a little bit deep (some touches of self-awareness, awakening of sexual identity, some homophobia) but all in all happy ending!

Review #2

Review:

When Sahara Yuuya loses his house in a fire, his university friend Masaki Keigo offers him a solution: to come stay at his place for a while. Little does Yuuya know that the place is actually owned by Masaki’s older brother Tsukasa, who takes him for a stalker for lingering around his place. When Keigo finally gets home, they clear the misunderstanding and Tsukasa agrees to let Yuuya stay over until his situation improves. But Yuuya’s “bad luck” doesn’t end here… At the interview for the seminar he’s been preparing so intensely, he finds out that the Associate Professor is none other than Keigo’s older brother, who easily informs him that all members from the new seminar are not allowed to have a part-time job, but don’t you worry…Tsukasa’s got the perfect job for Yuuya: professor assistant during the day and sleeping together during the night…

Opinion:

Honestly the cover made me check this manga out and I wasn’t disappointed! I totally adore the graphic! The characters are gorgeous, they have smooth lines, the emotions are perfectly conveyed and the body line is so, so sexy, that it’s a pleasure to read this.
The storyline is nice, it mainly revolves around Yuuya and Tsukasa, their progress from total strangers to lovers. I’ve very impressed by the deep transparency of Tsukasa’s true feelings for Yuuya, he looks so cool and composed in the beginning and without realizing, he falls in love with Yuuya and he shows it so earnestly.

Miss Takasaki Bosco managed to win another fan with this story, so give it a try!

Both of the reviews were great in different ways. The first one was a bit short, but it was good at giving just enough information to draw in interest. The second one gave both a summary and an opinion, so that edged it to my vote, but both are well done.

It's always a pleasure to discover more lovely manga...

Thank you for the reviews! Although review 1 was rather short, I actually voted for it because it was more of a review. Review 2 was informative, however the summary was longer than the review itself. I haven't read either title, but both reviews were able to give me a general idea of what to expect if I read them, so I appreciate that. ^^ Hope to one day get off my lazy butt and actually join in the reviewing here... soon... I have a few titles that I really wanna write reviews for!!!
