Hanami's manga / #Fluffy Uke(16)

Cute story about how Arima Kouhei, a fudanshi, and his little brother Kanata fall in love with a hairdresser and a teacher respectively. Kouhei has got to be the cutest thing ever, I don’t blame Shiiba Kazuomi for being smitten with him. I have to give props to Kanata, he just went for it with Mimasaka Kyuogo sensei. I loved his attitude and how he was both cute and manly.

An adorable story about the relationship between Naruse Nanami and the aloof surfer, Akiba Shuu. This was just fluffy and fun overall. Shuu’s poker face, especially when he’s supposed to be happy, was hilarious and Nanami was so adorable. Ayumi at the end killed me with that comment. The last two chapters are the manga Kamatte Kawaii Hito, it’s about a man who goes to a cat café to get over his fear of cats and meets a staff member who loves cats.

When university student Hinata finds out that his best friend Yuuma is in love, he tries to get a girlfriend so that he could have the experience necessary to help Yuuma get with his crush. The only problem is that Yuuma’s in love with Hinata. This was a cute story, Hinata was a bit dense but still cute. How could he have missed all those signals, and ever misinterpret the kissing and touching. Yuuma is one sexy bastard, I could relate to Hinata’s reluctance to have him stolen. Also I loved the conflict of interest and the bad advice as a result.

This manga includes four stories. The first story follows Azuma Shirou. Azuma has a glasses fetish and for some reason his eyes seem to follow Sorachi Satoshi. This story was so adorable! Sorachi is the cutest damn thing ever. He’s so squishable! I loved how both were so insecure and jealous, it was endearing. The second story follows Minami Kazuhiko as he always seems to stumble upon Sawai being confessed to. He and Sawai have a sexual relationship, which the adorably dense Minami interprets as just Sawai killing time before he gets a girl. Of course his assumption is completely off. The third story is about detective Saegusa Noritaka, who developed a crush on the café worker Nanase Ikumi. And finally, the last story is about Saegusa’s assistant Kirishima. Kirishima has had a crush on his neighbor for eight years. When Shirai Tetsuji is leaving for college, they are unwilling to let go of each other. This manga’s sequel is Wild Darling.

Clumsy worker Kondou Takayuki has a difficult relationship with his manager Takagi Toshinobu, who treats him harshly at every opportunity he gets. One morning, after getting drunk, he wakes up to find he slept with his boss. After some confusion and a misunderstanding they become a couple. The devil takes form in the sadistic, dominating, possessive and demanding seme. Takagi really enjoyed making Kondou suffer, to the point that I wanted him to take several seats. I felt bad for Kondou, being constantly beat down by the person you admire. That being said, I really enjoyed this manga, the reactions of the characters were funny and watching Kondou flail around was oddly entertaining (*hides inner S*). The second story follows Fujimori Takashi, a 28 year old businessman in the middle of a big project. Due to his lack of time, he hires a live-in maid to take care of the cooking and the cleaning. But due to a computer mistake, he gets assigned a male maid, Kuga Atsuhiko. This one was more innocent than the first one. It was a pretty cute read.

Jinnou Shirou loves rabbits, the only problem is that his stern expression scares the rabbits away. One day meets Kou, a rabbit café worker/struggling university student and Jinnou finally gets to pet a bunny. But Jinnou has taken an interest in Kou, who to Jinnou, resembles a rabbit. This is so adorable! I love how Jinnou is so serious and straightforward but likes cute rabbits. They’re a really cute couple. I felt the struggle of the last chapter, it’s not easy to control yourself when you have a cute, willing uke basically waiting to attack you.
