Review: Not bad. There are two couples in this, but it mainly focuses on one; a sensei/student pairing that, surprisingly (due to the fact that the uke is clearly of the girly distinction) comes off as rather cute. Yuka (student boy) is sort of childish, always vying for attention, but he has adult moments too. He handles bullying well, and is more intelligent than he comes off as being (which, honestly shouldn't be hard). The seme/sensei, Gotou, is likable. He's also an asshole. But he's likable, I promise. The author writes their relationship well; she doesn't take it too fast, and manages the sexy alongside the cute. All characters are likable in some way or another.


The second relationship is between a woman-hating (but skillful) host (who is kind of a slimeball, honestly), and an up and coming gynecologist(!?). Yeah, I know. But you have to be an idiot (or the host/seme) to not notice that he's gay. Hey, it's his life; if he wants to stare at vaginas all day, that's his business (it wouldn't be how I'd spend my days, but whatever). Another cute story, more sexually forceful, however... Everyone ends up happy in the end, so yaytiems!


Also, the omake is pretty much awesome. Gotou is awesome. Yuka has ulterior motives. Little weirdo. He is also awesome. I will flip through sex for that awesome.
