Review:
This manga (and author) has been one of my favorites for a while now, and I’m actually rereading it again. From the creator of Super Lovers and Hakkenden, I’m not sure why this particular manga never made it popular (I want fanfictions and fanarts darn it!) So here's my attempt at reeling in more fans!
Takara (his name translates to Treasure, I think it’s lovely) is a feminine looking guy with an unexpected personality for his appearance. Mostly living alone, he ends up starting dorm life as he enters high school, where he meets Kiyomine – the tall handsome brooding sort (which gets on Takara’s nerves because he feels he got the short stick during puberty).
The manga is 26 volumes long, and goes through several developments of the characters, which are plentiful in humor and plot. There are many other interesting side characters that are involved here, and there are even some darker arcs in the story. All in all, I found the development of this manga to be well paced and the story very engaging. The eye candies are of course a plus as well!
Full transparency though – this is hard to tag as shounen ai, when the focus is more on friendship, but at the same time it does have some obvious ‘ships’ for us BL fans. But the relationship and feelings between the two main protagonists still brings me to smiles, and there are some scenes that have my inner fangirl squealing.
