Sugar Milk

Description

For as long as we could remember, we have always been together. So it seemed only natural to assume this would last forever... but it might actually be by my fault that it all started to slip away...

A Must Read!

I found this manga while searching up other works by the same mangaka. These short stories are permanently stamped onto my mind, I only regret not having find this sooner. The humor in some of these short stories are wonderfully integrated into the storyline without making it seem ridiculously out of place. The third story, which is the second most memorable one for me, seemed almost as if it was a song- and the ending is just great. If you haven't done so already, I'd definitely recommend this. Now, I can't read other mangas without comparing it to this one.

Cute

...but without crossing the fine line into saccharine. The five stories vary a bit in quality. The eponymous chapters featuring Sho and Taichi were my favorites. Taichi especially makes some really hilarious faces, and the characters engage in bantering dialogue that keeps the story light and funny. It's an angst free, fresh take on childhood friends in love.

I was expecting yaoi or at least shounen ai when I read the Waiting for Winter and The Lingering Scent of a Rainbow chapters, so I was a little let down at first. They're the mildest shounen ai ever, but the completely unique stories captured me in the end.

Overall, the art quality is high throughout (as expected from this mangaka), and the stories are light, happy, and funny. If that's your thing, you've really gotta read Sugar Milk.

In the first story

The love interest's dog had me clutching my sides from laughing so much--this mangaka is fantastic! I'm so glad that I clicked on this. The stories are funny because the characters themselves are genuinely funny and cute and very slice of life-y.
If you're looking for serious character development, thou shalt look elsewhere! (But that's only because these are one-shots which--obvi--do not really allow for that) But these stories are well done and very REAL feeling.
I personally am a big fan of the Junko-esque style of art used.
I recommend this if you want cute funny one-shots that aren't super heavy on the sexin'

Not bad

I actually liked this, my favorite stories was Fifteen and Milk and Sugar. The art reminded me a bit of Ootsuki Miu, but it certanly had it´s own charm to it too.
Some of the stories could´ve been developt more instead of making more unnecassary stories like the one about the sensei or the Model.

I´m definitly looking forward to see more by this author, and this collection of stories is highly recommended.

I agree with most of the other posts. This was a really nice collection of stories. I especially liked the first one (including the spinn-off) and the main story. One couldn't really consider them deep stories, but they were very entertaining.

Light, fluffy, cute.

The dog in the first chapter was adorable. I liked the childhood friends one, it was passionate and cute.The sensei one, meh. And finnally the one about the model i felt held the deepest feelings and was rather...interesting.

the stories weere nice, specially the second one was my fav, it made my heart ache a little at the end. The art reminded me a little of Kyuugou.

It's been a while since I last read something as amazingly written and drawn as Sugar Milk..

Once in a while I get to read an amazing manga that just leaves me with a roller-coaster of emotions, making me smile idiotically one moment and then the next, finding my eyes tearing up even before I realize it. It’s a blissful experience that makes me reread the story time and time again. And yeah, i'm talking about this manga, Sugar Milk (oddly cute title for an amazing manga ^^).

It also helps that the artwork of this manga is really nice and very modern. The characters look gorgeous, fresh-looking and stylish. I fell in love with the various expressions of these two as the story unfolded. Speaking of the plot, I admit it isn’t really something new: childhood friends loved each other for a long time, though unbeknownst to them. What I admire though was the execution of the plot. The author played well with the transition of scenes, and the dialogues were just too romantic, but not too cheesy. Ok maybe a bit cheesy but it’s the kind of cheesiness that you just love too see. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
