    Eden no Uragawa – Miyoshi Ayato

    Photographer Akiba is indebted to Arimura for giving him work so he is asked by Arimura to take a young man under his wing. He takes in a guy named Ikumi who seems to be involved with the straight Arimura. Even though they are lovers, Ikumi has no idea when Arimura will be back. Regardless of what he does in this complicated situation, Akiba gets depressed about this troublesome mess he has gotten himself in, but Ikumi’s innocent nature proves to be likable and living with him is surprisingly pleasant. The dazzlingly gentle blessed days of an up-and-coming photographer and a freeloader uke!

    So meh I couldn’t think of anything to say…

    Irony Dress ni Sayonara – Miyoshi Ayato

    A shriek was heard as a sailor uniform skirt fluttered, and Meguru thought himself a lucky perv till he caught a glimpse of… a guy’s boxer shorts? “Quit staring, old fart!“ By chance, he ended up inviting the high school boy in a girl’s uniform, Keiichi, to his place with the mystery of why he wears that uniform still unsolved. Unwittingly, however, Meguru discovered the reason behind Keiichi’s uniform… Two hearts entwined and a tale of first love, to reach out to get closer to your heart. “That uniform, are you wearing it ‘cause you really want to?”

    Incidentally, in my country, people expect you to wear a dress and be swishy if you are gay. They can’t seem to understand that being gay just means men liking men and the person doesn’t necessarily want to be a woman.

    Good manga though…

    Tonaride Hanasaku Oto ga Shita -Miyoshi Ayato

    Love. It comes all of a sudden even to delinquents. A pint-sized punk is fascinated by the earnestness of the black-haired, pessimistic committee chairman; two punks start going out only as a defiance to everyday monotony; and two boys cut classes at their usual spot, the rooftop, where they end up having an adult relationship. Also after that, extras on these three couples. Triple features, satisfaction guaranteed. A compilation of oneshots packed with the follies of youth. Sensei, an impure same-sex friendship, what’s that?

    Love these punk homos!
