the characters don't have much depth or development and the story's not very memorable. very unlike fujiyama hyouta's other works : (

a great manga ^^, but the way Seigo consider his feeling toward Jin is not like sensei's previous mangas, it's a little bit too fast. And though i'm not into love triangle but this one is not bad. :-) A 10 points for my most ever favorite mangaka :xxx

That realtionship was a big no-no to me... It's not because of the age per se but i'm not gonna say it doesnt play a factor. I just think it was weird how this guy just ends up liking this little kid all of a sudden. I mean what led up to sei actually liking this child, this manga doesnt show much of why sei likes jin so much and how it led to that... It was just like "BAM!" i like you jin, just like that.

Plus i dont like the two personalities together, plus jin isnt mature enough and he's also not interesting enough. And the fact that Sei thought that Jin reminded him of Aki when he was younger, i dont understand how it could come down to there not even being a chance of Sei being with Aki, there was like no hesitation and yet he likes Jin. It doesnt make sense.

But i think Aki would have been a much better fit for Sei, because he's more mature and also seems a little more interesting. I usually like this mangaka's stories, but this one was just a big no-no for me... I wasnt feeling it at all, i didnt really like any of the characters and it was just so...

I didn't enjoy this series that much. I got annoyed with almost all the characters and their personalities, especially with Seigo. The way he didn't take the confessions seriously and didn't think his actions through made me feel sorry for the other guys.

The plot was also easy to see through and there was no surprises. Honestly, Fujiyama sensei has many way better series than this one!

This one started off intriguing, with the love triangle setup. Unfortunately, it quickly becomes predictable, and the main character makes it no secret as to who he'll choose.
I flipped through the pages, but didn't thoroughly read the last few chapters. My dislike for the main 'couple' brought down my interest in the story.

A little more on the comedic, a little less on the realistic side like her usual stories.
Well, what do you expect of a guy trapped between an uke and a seme, I mean it's clear who he ends up with as soon as you see the cover picture.
The manga is not bad for what it is though. Jin looks young just because he's short. His face doesn't scream "young" as much as many many other mangakas would have it.
He's 15, with Seigo being 20. It's not really the end of the world! I agree though that the story moves very fast and has not much substance. It's hard to follow the characters and their actions. Despite there being three men who turn gay all of a sudden, the topic of homosexuality doesn't come up at all, all you get is a "but I'm a guy" and that's that.
The characters are not clearly defined uke or seme, they're something in between (not when it comes to sex but more the way they look or act!)
Nevertheless, I liked Jin as a character. He's quite fun because he is so persistant, he just goes in and takes what he wants and stands up to other no problem, even though he's young and short!
It's an age gap story. Problems like being treated like a kid, looked at as an equal, sex are being handled here and the manga does that alright.

The charm of this manga lies in the atypical characters! It's not the usual cookie-cutter roles where you look at the first page and you know exactly who is a seme and who'll be his uke and it's just clear like that. If you need a break from the 0815 type of characters, or you just enjoy persistant (much) younger semes who are the driving force, and clueless ukes, then give this a read.

That being said, I don't think this manga to be anything special either. There are better age gap or young seme stories out there, and Fujiyama Hyota sensei also has much much better works released. It's a light one-time read.

I love the main couple! Even though the one guy is only 15, he's awesome, so I got over the kind of weird age difference (mainly because the one was still kind of a kid).

I don't normally like love triangles, but this was great! The writing was phenomenal - it wasn't stupid or too fluffy, and it was smart.

My only complaint is that it's too short. I want more.

Try it!

Everyone hate this manga becuase the main character didn't pick the Yaoi cookie cut-out Seme!? Sure in most Yaoi manga the 'best friend' wins but this was a refreshing twist I liked it. So cheers Hyouta for breaking Yaoi expectations.

I have the same feelings like gttg, but I accepted Jin now... somehow... Really nice art but the story doesnt really have a point I got addicted.

I love Manga of Fujiyama Hyouta , but I don't like this mangaka , so i like Aki , but Seigo's not choose Aki >_<
