Description
[From Nakama]

A change in the stakeout team throws Onoe, reporter for a weekly magazine, together with his contemporary, Kaburagi, a photographer. Onoe secretly considers Kaburagi his rival, and Kaburagi's haphazard way of doing things goes against Onoe's strong sense of ethics--there's nothing but conflict between them.

But, in joint pursuit of a scandal, the two of them begin to care about each other...?

Introducing the main fighting couple!

Series includes a crossover extra featuring the main couple from Doushiyoumo Nai Keredo

It's very cute and definitely worth a read! The art is absolutely great. Typical tsundere uke x seme stuff, but the reporter profession helps ground their relationship and give them a plot. There's also a chapter from the seme POV, which is something worth looking at. The manga's somewhat lacking though, as the tsundere's characterization doesn't have as many layers. He stops insisting on moral integrity and starts obsessing about denying his relationship. Eh, the manga isn't fully scanlated yet, so it could improve. It's a minor issue that makes this manga just shy of being special.

It's been a long time since I read a manga with a couple such as this and I love it!
They are so great together, bickering, complaining and insulting each other in the funniest ways but they will just go on loving each other!
I can't wait for volume two and am already curious to see whether or not Onoe can finally accept his own feelings and show them a bit more.
Either way, as expected from Nastume Isaku sensei, a great romantic comedy!

normally i don't care for tsundere uke's at all. i think these two get a pass since they're both tsundere for each other and not in the annoying abusive way. onoe is BEYOND CUTE. his conviction and sense of justice combined with kabu's questionable ethics make for excellent chemistry. also i love how we get kabu's POV sometimes, he's also flipping adorable. it's rare that you get more than one pov in a manga like this, otherwise kabu might come off as just a cold jerk lol.

CANT WAIT FOR MORE

I really loved this manga, before I knew it became one of my favorites. Actually, I don't really know why.
Anyway, the art is really good, Kaburagi is really hot, I must say. And Onoe is cute. They're both really good-looking.
The plot is not the best I've seen, but it's still good. The pace isn't to fast, like many other yaoi mangas. I usually prefer them to get together in like the third chapter. That's why I don't like one shots ^-^
Oh well, overall, a really good manga. Totally recommended! :]

I'm quite enjoying the manga. I wouldn't usually go for the type of couple that bickers and fights a lot. But these two really make a great pair. They're more endearing because of their personality traits and the way they behave around each other.
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
Onoe is the type to blush easily and wear his feelings on his sleeve, throwing a temper tantrum if being teased or not getting his way while Kaburagi is the silent type, cool and composed, who usually remains calm in stressful situations but who is undone by Onoe.


The details of their profession took a while to understand and put into context but other than that, I've enjoyed reading the progress the characters made to be together.

I love Natsume Isaku's work, but I find this kind of lacking. Usually her stories are pretty endearing with lovable characters but in this one I find both characters mostly unlikable. Bickering couples aren't my sort of thing. They are both mostly jerks to everyone and each other. The story itself with the two working together doesn't really do much for me either and I find myself skimming over some of the things they say. It's not bad, but Natsume Isaku has much better work.

I've always been a fan of Natsume-sensei as she always delivers wonderful plots with yummy art, and this is no exception. The uke is adorable (total tsundere which I love) and the seme is cool and sexy. What makes this so sweet is the seme's POV, he can't help but love Onoe's extreme reactions to everything, and even he blushes from time to time! (I hate when seme's never blush so this makes me extra happy) ^__^

The only thing that I didn't particularly like was
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
when Onoe asks Kaburagi if he's had experience with men, he implied he had for his work. But the impression I had of him up until that point was that Onoe was the first, because he seemed quite surprised at himself for having these feelings towards him. Or perhaps it wasn't due to the fact that he's a man, but just because it's Onoe, that's why it shocked him. Either way i'm a bit disappointed, I would've liked it more if he didn't have experience. But hey that's just my personal preference so it doesn't affect my overall opinion of this manga.

Anyway the pacing is good, it doesn't take too long for the spark to ignite yet it's not love at first sight either, it's just right. So far i've read the whole of Vol 1 and thanks to the great ending I reeeally want more! >__< If only I could read Japanese!

If you like Natsume Isaku's previous works, then you'll love this.

Indeed, it's cute. It's pretty typical Natsume Isaku, with a hot-tempered, clueless uke and a seemingly calm/cool seme. The uke hates the seme at first, but slowly it turns....to looooooove.

Sappy, but cute. Nothing new, but I'll still keep track of how this story progresses.

I almost cried when I saw the softcore yaoi tag. I want them to fuck. Like seriously. Whatever. Love it anyway. I love the uke. He's one of my favorite types, the almost-tsundere-but-not-quite-as-frustrating type. Love love love.

The bickering is just awesome and the pace is pretty slow for yaoi but I love it anyway. There's a tension that's built just by the first chapter. Seriously want them to do it hard. I want Onoe to get really screwed hard just to see his adorable-to-die-for turned on face

I love that the relationship is developed. I'm at chapter 4 so far as there aren't any updates yet, but wow, I never thought I'd get a semePOV. We rarely get a seme-POV and the seme isn't a dick!! *gasp*!! The way he sees Onoe makes me fall in love with both the characters even more. The seme isn't instantaneously in love with the uke.

Usually, when the uke discovers his feelings for the seme, he finds out later that the seme's liked him all along. This usual trope doesn't happen here because they totally develop their feelings around the same time, only Onoe's reactions are more obvious.

I love it when the seme finds the uke so adorable, he himself blushes despite being all cool and sexy. I just love a slightly blushing seme.

They finally did it, and though it wasn't as graphic and prolonged and made the center piece of the chapter as I would have wanted, I still melted with all the fluffy-ness. And then there's the hotness that was Onoe getting screwed and blushing and freaking hot and I just love him and Kabu and Nnnyaghn.

Fangirl brainmelt.

ohgod. ohgod. ohgod. ohgod. ohgod. ohgod. ohgod. ohgod. ohgod. ohgod. ohgod. ohgod.
It's rare that I still have the same, and maybe even more, amount of love for a manga that updates as frequently as this but, gawd, why do I still feel all giddy like when I first started reading this??

Fangirling to the next dimension, peoples.

Give this manga a shot and you'd be surprised. It gets better by the chapter and although things look like they're about to go all cliche, the characters do something pleasantly surprising (like actually talking and making an effort to understand each other)

The humor is lovely and, gawd, I still get weak in the knees whenever I think of Onoe getting screwed . Kabu is hot, like so many levels of HAWT, but he isn't just a pretty face. Their bickering is hilarious and there is a lot of heartwarming fluff that accompanies the sex, and don't even get me started on the sex!!

It's lighthearted and funny and gorgeously drawn. It isn't groundbreaking and not the type that makes you go into all kinds of introspection or whatever BUT it's an awesome pick-me-up and I can say it is one of my faves. I came to this for the humor and, well, to be honest, the sex, and ended up staying for the whole package because, goddamn, this-- this gets my fangirl juices flowing and I don't even care if I'm going into TMI territory.

I really dig Natsume Isaku works, but this one is... slow to warm up to. The potential!-uke is so gosh-darn punchable that, well, you actually start punching things (screens, table, walls, humans). He's one of those "knee-jerk reaction" dudes, the twitchy ones. Everything is dramatized by his puny head that at some parts you just throw your hands up (not in a clubbing sorta sense), make fists, and proceed to punch things. Or humans. I think he's supposed to be funny. Hmm :/

If you skip this, your world won't end.
