Those who liked the serie, rise its rating!

Putting a Shonen Ai tag to this serie attracts less people to it.
I'd say its more like: Comedy, Romance, Drama, "Human Psychology" but not the Shounen Ai, anyway it will depemd only the readers own view.

The plot is certanly 10/10, characters are 10/10, drawing is good also. What i like about this manga is that plot always progresses and adds more twists to it.

I am sure this is one the best mangas ilustrating how complex and sweet such a feeling as "true love" might be.

Male?

Ok seriously.. I just can't stop wondering weather or not Yuki really is a guy or a girl.. Everything about "him" is female except for one little document saying male. I just have to find out for sure! Picture proof! Oo

From all we've seen (all panty shots etc) everything points towards that Yuki is a female, but s/he says s/he's a male.. GAH!

*My rating scale is out of 5.

Wow, No Bra is wholly omg awesome. My first gender bender and I'm surprised at the quality of topics and emotions that are in the story. The characterization of the main character is perfect. He really is a high school student, with a slightly sexually active mind, a lot of innocence and naivety, and a huge dash of kindness. But he doesn't always have the "correct" personality, he takes advantage of situations, sometimes because of hormones, sometimes because of stupidity, sometimes out of inexperience. It really is very interesting. And the whole time, the way he's sexually confused about the whole situation does make for some interesting thoughts and scenes. But he does finally come to conclusion that love is what love is. Don't complicate it too much with what people think are immoral. Define what you think are right or wrong or just abolish it outright and some things will not matter anymore. It's all about perspective.

The supporting characters are fun and come in to the story at times to add a lighthearted atmosphere to it, which is a good thing to do, don't want to be to serious here. I especially like Mizuki -- some of the funniest scenes involving her. But that saying, I hope the mangaka will draw Yuki's and Kaoru's character out more to make them fuller, richer characters -- especially Yuki's.

I wonder where this manga will go and I hope the mangaka will do something that will surprise us all, i.e. a bittersweet ending. But I'm thinking it will end up all happy happy.

All in all. I enjoy this a lot and recommend it very much. Coming from a person who has always repulse against the idea of gender bender mangas.

PS. Thanks to all the scanlators for scanlating it and for Geisha for picking it up.

@leprechaundata

Wherever he gets them, somebody needs to point me in that direction. I've been looking all over the place for Hawaiian shirts for like 3 years now (I know I could order them on the net, but I'm too stubborn for that) and I haven't found any. Edit 4/7/09: I found one at Walgreens, of all places, like a week ago, and I haven't taken it off since.

Oh, and as for commenting on the manga, I love it. It's quite interesting indeed. I really like the style of art for some reason. It reminds me of a webcomic I read. I just wish they'd update more often. Or maybe I could learn Japanese then it wouldn't matter.

Since theres so many comments here, all I need to add is "where the hell does he get all those Hawaiian shirts?". I mean it was normal at first but hes even wearing them when he was in kindergarten?!

It was pretty interesting until Masato just becomes a jerk who seems to go for anyone who has the looks and yukis is just pitiful. Not against gay or anything but don't think their relationship would work out.

This series is funny and strange but I think it's good to read something that makes you go "Wait..., What?". I just think letting go of reality for a while and forgetting that guys are most likely never going to look like Yuki is a good way to enjoy some fiction. If you get all caught-up in the "It can't happen" part, you can't enjoy the story; of course all the special and unbelievable things that happen in Bleach, Death Note and Naruto are acceptable because they aren't hinting at being gay or cross-dressing. It's so obvious when people complain about a manga that's borderline yaoi just 'cause they hate that genere. By-the-way, I'm not into yaoi or gay/crossdressing stories but I do like silly and unique fiction. Rant over.. 🙂

What kind of gay manga is that, its not right. Reading that makes me really feel sick. a man that looks like a woman or acting like a woman for a certain reason i understand, but that homosexual part aint right

CronoLink you could say that every single anime/manga/real movie/theater play/day is always the same without any difference to earlier. I could in fact just pick anything randomly and show how it has been done before.

Maybe just the style didn't click with you. You should avoid comedy in the future too.
