I liked the bashful older Ukes. There was a rather smooth and caring air about all the stories. The plot wasn't overly complicated, rather towards the simple side but it's these life-based situations that draw more through their probability and simplicity. The mangaka's art is clear and beautiful... both characters nicely drawn though there wasn't much for side characters or background. All in all, an enjoyable read both for the eye and mind if you're looking for something relaxing.

The title story is a wonderful 2-chapter short! The "bashful older uke" as Trix M. mentions, is most certainly adorable. There is a sexy-amazing and sweetly innocent, guilt-filled masturbation scene starring him. Then, there is a very tense, erotically charged scene with the "badumps" of both uke and seme -- and no clothes are even removed! What amazes me is that this scene, filled with moment-by-moment panel transitions, is four pages long and never in a million years would I call it boring; in fact, it's the opposite. The entire story is surprising compelling since it is a very simple story. Katou-sensei works the 2-chapters! I was also strangely captivated by the upper leg muscles of the uke as he spread his legs in sitting position while masturbating; it was simply drawn, with few details, but struck me with such a feeling of a beautiful bishounen.

The rest of the shorts in this anthology are all highly enjoyable, if forgettable. The art is sharp, clear and bright with lots of negative space used attractively.

There just something missing so strongly in these works that I ended up reading for the artwork and the few good dialogues here and there.
Five different stories. Besides the senpai-kouhai one, I was fine with the rest of them. Though I also have my reservations about the “Kaeri Hana (Return Flower)” because of how sex and rape are conflated in it. And, this conflation reaches its peak in the Senpai-Kouhai story which is aptly titled “Let’s try it”.

The drawing style is as usual rather simple, but that is actually not a bad thing and for me it was okay. There aren't many odds or unusual characteristics in the design, yet that simplicity nice in it's own way.

The storylines have been okay, too. The first two chapters will stay maybe a bit longer in my mind, than the others, but all in all they were average. Reaching the level, that is easy to get along with and pick for a quick read. So, if you don't mind such things and if you are not looking for something special, then this might be to your liking.

The first and last stories were cute and sweet. The others were kinda meh.

The art is very clean and nice. However in chapter 4, I couldn't tell between the two leads. The only thing different between most of the characters in this volume is their hair...
Also, in the first story the dude's anus was drawn where a woman's vagina should be...

I personally love hardcore yaoi but I also love the ones which art is nice and the plot is also good and not very complicated. The style of art is really nice and very clean cut. The story is sweet and not dark at all so cute!!!
I hope I get more of these~

It's really good! Better than i expect! All of the story is really good, especially the first and the last story. That's really good and sweet. And i could say the H scene is really make my heart dancing "doki doki". It's really good! The art is beautiful too. None of the character is annoying. So... Recommended!
