Pretty cute, actually. Though the uke, though masculine physically was still too girly for me.

Though it wasn't my cup of tea, I really really liked how a girl was a possible romantic interest without wimping her out or completely demonizing her! I'm guilty of secretly rooting for her, though she had no chance, haha... and though Icchan's attitude about her annoys me, I really like how her presence showed a fault of his deeper than just being a bad cook, sexism.

I like how Sakuragi-sensei reverses the stereotypes, although I think he/she could have done more with them. However, the story was funny, sweet, and cute. I loved the second story with the university student and the gambler. Truly funny, and also sweet and cute! However, I also worry about their future. ^^;

This was so funny! Mostly because the uke was not only super girly, but super tall XD But still, the romance was so sweet, it didn't even really bother me. I was really waiting for Icchan to snap with all of the problems other people were causing for him and Yuzu, but oh well. ^_^ He really is a "cool prince". The extra was cute too, but with a gambler and a guy who can't pass his exams, I'm a bit concerned for their future (money-wise)... o_o;

An experimental change since Sakuragi-sensei rarely inserts a "girly uke" (although physically masculine), but I think she did a decent job. Some of the parts were strange, but the silly sweet fluff between Yuzu and Icchan just mellowed them down :3 It's the eyes I tell you~~

It was really funny watching this tall, "manly" uke act like a typical cute, little uke with tearful eyes and "stars&sparkles" around him when he smiled. It was sort of weird, but in a funny and good way. My eyes were once again opened to how ridiculous the prototype-uke usually behaves (still love them though)...
This manga had a nice story and the art was very good too, it's worth reading!

I just love this manga! Yuzu is adorable and I feel like I just can't get enough of him! Icchan is a "cool beauty", but they're both nice on the eyes ^_^ The art gives off a soothing, happy feeling and I always look forward to the next chapter! Sakuragi-sensei's work is amazing as always! I highly recommend this!

This is such a nice sweet manga. I totally with booyaka on the whole stereotype type thing. In my opinion, I though the uke was very girlie in this case. For example, he worries about being fat and dreams about being a princess for Icchan. But, it was fun reading it and I just adore Sakuragi sensei's work.

Cute manga! It's quality as is all of her work. It does basically play up stereotypes in yaoi manga; the tall guy is the girly uke and has issues with being tall, while the shorter guy is more manly and is the seme. This is by no means an original idea, but it's nice to see a seme/uke relationship shaken up a bit. It's cute and has a nice story.
