Mediocre at most

Story 1-2
I agree with lifeincircuit, that I have no idea what the others have read, because the first two chapters had a very weak story and flat characters. From the description for the second story I got the impression that Mitsûra and Kôtarô had been in a relationship, when in reality ...

they weren't friends or even acquaintances with each other! They had only just met each other! Mitsûra only had a slight interest in Kôtarô, while Kôtarô saw Mitsûra as a rival for Akira's affection. There was no sexual relationship between them whatsoever.

Therefore I have a hard time understanding how Mitsûra possible can consider Shintarô as a substitute for Kôtarô since they're practically strangers.

The sex scenes wasn't even that steamy to be honest, quite mediocre, which is a pity when the art is good. Especially the eyes are very expressionistic.

outstanding art & hot sex

Rating: 8.5 / 10.0

I like this combination. To be honest the plot is kind of usual, there's nothing extraordinary... oh, maybe the twins theme without incest 😉 but it was a nice read. The type of yaoi that was made just for fun. There's a lot of graphic sex. You sure can kill some time with this one without regret if you're not in the mood for sth dark and psychological. The art is more than pretty, it's an eye candy. The mangaka put a lot of effort to make this high quality drawings, clean but expressive and very enticing.
Pick it at least for the art.

Not bad

I quite liked this. Definitely bordering on PWP, but I can see some real emotions involved, especially in the 2nd and 4th stories.
The only problem here is the romance isn't as developed as the smut, so it does feel a little lacking and shallow. But I still think there is some depth to the couples' feelings if you read between the lines a little.
Plus, the art is hot. Not as much as it is in Ijiwaru na Kuchibiru, and there is less comedy and romance too, but still it was a nice little read.

Left almost no impression... The plot is rushed and there's no depth in the characters. It was like;
Dude1-"Hey"
Dude2-"Hi"
Dude1-"Let's have sex!?"
Dude2-"Ok cool!"
Dude1-"I love you"
Dude2-"Me too"
Dude1-"Let's do it again!"
Dude2-"Sure"

Soooo ummm just try to enjoy the sex scenes?? XD
And yeah the art is pretty so I guess that makes up for it a bit 😛

Not sure what others were reading, but this wasn't so great for me. It wasn't terrible, but at least the chapters I read didn't have a ton of plot. It was mostly PWP, but then the sex scenes were pretty boring so it really couldn't ride on that either. The art was decent, but otherwise it just didn't have a lot to offer me personally.

twins metaphor

When one twin is an uke and one a seme, it explores both aspects of a man. Is every gay man capable of being a versatile/reversible?
mitsuura x shintarou sizzles! hot hot hot!
Love this- this is for every fangirl who likes their ukes just as manly as their semes.
