Comments:
Pretty art, bishounen, harem, what more do you want? I really enjoyed this manga! I like how the manga is not focus on only one couple, but 2 more couples at the same time. The story paced itself well, not too hurried and not too long-winded. The seme is really gentle and caring for his uke (chapters 1-3), makes you feel really warm inside. On the other hand, in chapter 4, you can see the "dark" side of an S&M seme. But the S&M part is not heavily emphasized, so if you do not like S&M, you can still enjoy this. (And gosh, he had black hair with an eye patch! Smexy!) In chapters 5-6, you get a taste of innocent school love~ Overall, if you enjoy pretty art, this is a must read! ^^ The disappointing is...it doesn't feel like its completed D:
