Honto no Kanojo

A hardcore masochist and a girl who's never even thought of trying BDSM. Drawn in style that usually emphasises cuteness, occasionally prettiness. The highlights are the first and last pages of the chapters where we see their faces as they have their masterxservant like encounters.

But the series is just very different to other ones so idk how to review this properly

a very nice, very cute yuri manga

With the really dubious premise of "sadomasochistic romance" you might think this has a lot of fanservice or something, but it doesn't at all. In fact, it's adorable. One of my favorites series; it really shows how S&M isn't just some off-the-wall fetish, and it isn't like Nana to Kaoru in that it's not perverted at all. I explain this better in a review I wrote for the series, but basically the idea of "control and being controlled", "dominating and being submissive" is explored in a surprisingly cute and heartfelt way. Nana to Kaoru can also be cute and heartfelt, but not nearly as much as Honto no Kanojo.

A cute romance...

... about a budding S&M relationship. The manga isn't long - chapters are typically 10-13 pages -, but I enjoyed the romance, and it ends at a fitting point.
Oh, and thankfully, there's no frickin' love triangle...

Quite an adorable manga with some harshness to it, but that's what gives it that special something.
The art is pretty, but the panels are a bit cramped.
The dialogue is amusing and flowing enough to keep you interested, and the punchlines here and there really hit the spot.
I assume it's going to be a short manga, so there won't be much development, but it's enjoyable nonetheless.
Moe's fetishistic love for Yuuka is a big plus. ;p
