Lovely

As usual with Suzuki Tsuta, the art is gorgeous.
I love both main characters. Shio's personality, a bit manipulative, a bit cold, a bit tsundere, a bit pure, is very well written. Miya is supposed to be a soothing person in the story, and he really DOES look soothing and pure just as a fictional character. That's why the hidden depths in his persona were so interesting.

Plus I'm a sucker for semes that are obsessed with their ukes even though they don't look like it, so I really liked this character. .
I'm hoping the last chapter will get translated some day. I took a look at the raw, so I know roughly how it ends, but I'd like to know what the actual dialogs and feelings are.

This is definitely highly recommended. First off, I love Suzuki Tsuta's art style; it's really clean and beautiful, not busy or cluttered at all, and just easy to follow. Also, I like the premise of the story, and the characters are really likable and unique. Shio is definitely one-of-a-kind in the uke department- he's mature, perceptive, has a great sardonic sense of humor, and he's fun and laid-back.... and lovingly manipulative, haha. In real life, I would definitely want to be his friend. And Miya is great, too- very good-natured and cool. This is the sort of manga that makes you feel connected to the characters; they're all surprisingly fleshed out and interesting. Also, it's pretty amusing; this is definitely one of Suzuki Tsuta's lighter works- it has great bits of humor in it that are actually laugh-out-loud funny and not the sort of "I appreciate the effort, but..." type. Shio and Miya's developing relationship is so good, too- I like how they met at a IRL meeting and the whole blogging thing.

Overall, just a great read. It has that unexplainable touch that makes you feel like you would enjoy reading it over and over again. I honestly don't think you can go wrong with this one. The only complaint I have is that I wish it were longer!

This is a really good manga. The relationship between the two characters is depicted beautifully and because of that you cant help but love them both so much. I wish the next chapter would come out already!!

Great premise and wonderful characters. Shio espeically is one of the most thoughtful and mature characters I've seen in quite awhile. Miya is also wonderful and so endearing. I really adore their conversations above all else. It's very well written and they actually take the time to get to know each other and their relationship grows from there. A must read for anyone. The art is of course clean and beautiful. I just adore how her characters always look different. Suzuki Tsuta is just really wonderful and so underrated and props to DP for remaining such a high quality group after all these years. These guys are amazing.

The slow-paced storyline, the painfully beautiful drawing style, the original characters; everything about this manga is lovely -- except perhaps the wait in-between chapters ^^'
I was grinning throughout, and even when it ended, it left me with a happy sigh. It doesn't do it justice but: Lovely.

This is one of those yaois which is so close to perfection that it's unbearable to be left waiting for more chapters to show up. Miya seems to be the only guy that can calm Shio, who seems untrusting for the most part. I agree with Kipperripper, that this is a manga worth re-reading. In fact, I've read chapter 1 more than a few times in anticipation.

i loved it! i mean i might be a little biased cos i already loved Shio-tan (hehe) from Sangen - but i love yaois where there isnt an obvious uke/seme role, i dont know if it was obvious to others but to me i was like.... hey....
i loved the story line of IRL meet ups, i thought that was original (and yeah i have read other yaois with that but they usually involve some kind of dating or sex site... i thought this one was fresh)

i love suzuki-sensei's style. its clean and easy to follow, and its also the type of manga that i will go and read again ^O^/ - that said, i cant wait till the english scans are done, i love the comparison and truth be told, sometimes i think they come off better haha (it has nothing to do with the fact that i'm lazy and my brain dosent like chinese anymore - i have a terrible habit of mixing words so i have to reread a page a few times to see my own mistake!) haha

I recommend! ^O^/
