Well, this isn’t the first time that I have encountered man(beast?)rape, and sadly it won’t be the last. And, it’s the justification of the rape and Stockholm syndrome that takes places which just makes me want to flip the table. The best story for me was number 4: Love and Reticence (Ai to Chinmoku, (tho I also have some reservations about it) with the rest of them except for 2) Sawaki's Case, being equally terrible in one way or another.
If you are looking for kinkiness then you won’t be disappointed, but in terms of actual story telling number 4 and 2 are the ones of any substance.
The art is standard for Naono Bohra with the muscular but not too bara, and the grittiness of the colouring to show the heavy dark emotion or smutty scenes (maybe the original scans are cleaner?).
What really annoys me is that I actually do understand why this manga has a favorable rating, and even I am tempted to rate it highly on the first read because let’s throw morals outside the window and focus on the story telling individually within the yaoi-universe that is setup this stuff does actually make sense. But, only if one is reading it without an eye to detail. If a bit more attention is paid to the dialogues then the setup does easily crumbles down.

If nothing else, read the fourth chapter. Kisa is possibly the shyest, most adorable protagonist EVER. The way he expressed his feelings to hot restaurant owner was adorable, and the last line killed me with laughter.
I came to love Naono Bohra-sensei after reading this manga. Her art style is hot, the men look like a real men, the sex is crazy hot, the caricatures are hilarious and the stories have a plot... sensei qualified into my favourite-mangaka-list with an amazing speed!
I really like the third (Tigure!!!) and the fifth story

I absolutely love the fourth chapter. It's hilarious and sweet at the same time. I think maybe the author likes eggs herself, because there are a few other egg lovers in her stories (Akakagachi, anyone?).
The title story is nice, though Shinobu bottoming makes it a little pedo-y. Chapter 5 is typical Naono oyaji-uke. I like it when she draws children as extra characters, they always look so cute.

For as long as I have been a huge fan of Naono Bohra, I just now saw this manga. How could I have missed something so lovely and cute! All the chapters made me gush with enthusiasm; in fact, I was attracted to the manga by the last chapter. Add kids to the mix to spice up the stress of the two main characters and I'm in. Though, I did enjoy the chapter on the supernatural animal characteristic; it was so cute and I wish she would continue that in as a oneshot off somewhere to the side, you know, so I can see the offsprings~ I'm all up for mpreg if Naono Bohra does it~
Honestly though, you are missing out BIG time if you at least glance at the plot. It's shallow and the feelings often go by fast, but we all know the moral here is that the couples are the cutest in the end, cuddling. Some people don't like muscular men, some people don't like her shading; your opinion is opinionated. All I'm saying is...this is a great read as oneshots!

I kinda liked the last story! The kids are so cuuuuute! My, all of the stories are so interesting! This might be my first time liking Naono Bohra's work after all. Wait, I do like her Three Wolves Mountain work as well. Overall, it's a very cute and nice read! You should give this a try! Really!
Uterus fruit *laugh* poor guy, kittens on the way xD and the last chapter "I like you more than eggs!" roflmao. I love this mangaka's works, her art is perfect and she always somehow managed to make me laugh no matter how serious a story might appear. Another collection of epic short stories.
