Product Description: Sometimes the road to romance and true love can be filled with deep, dark potholes... When Misaki begins to seriously question his relationship with Usami, a high-class date might reveal the truth about their bond. But during their time together, the couple is interrupted by the loudmouth and rude Ryuichiro--who drops hints about Usami's true nature! And in the next Junjou Egoist story, Hiro goes to the extreme to nurse his lover, Nowaki, back to health...unaware that Nowaki's "sickness" might not have a cure!
Totally loved it I totally love this new series. I have since bought the whole series so far and am waiting anxiously for the next volume. I hear there is also an anime based on this story line. I highly recommend it. It is very funny and totally wicked. The drawings are nice and you will love the two storylines. I couldn't put it down once I started to read it. You will totally love this one.
Worth the investment --of your time, as much as your money. I enjoyed the first two volumes of this series because of the beautiful artwork and the hilarious antics of the characters. And let's face it, what fangirl wouldn't get a kick out of a story where one of the central characters is a BL (Boy's Love) writer? It is fun to watch Usami swing from ridiculous to (ostensibly) serious and back again, and Misaki's frequent spaz-attacks are as priceless as his confusion over his deepening feelings for Usami is sweet.
I would have been content with the series as a humorous gag-type love story, but volume 3 surprised me with its unexpected deepening of the characters, as well as the plot. We see a greater range of emotion, which it seems Misaki and Usami have been trying to avoid in their tentative relationship with each other--but it was the expression on Usami's face in the 'laundry' scene which was the clincher for me!
A gorgeous series, and I can't wait for the next volume.
SUPER GOOD The discription of this book is rather correct in the previous post. The characters keep their identities from the other books and this book is just another delight to read. Be warned: The chapters on Hiro and Nowaki do not finish a plot sequence so you get quite a bit of a cliff hanger at the end. However, it really just makes waiting for the next book that much sweeter!
Love It!! This series has a great story and is about a young man comming to terms with his love of another man. In this book Misaki questions his relationshop with Usami and togther they go on a date hower it is interupted. Later Misaki's brother asks Misaki to move back in with him and his wife. Also in this book, Hiro trys to nurse Nowaki back to health and we also get a glimpse of a time before Hiro meets Nowaki.
This is a great book with a wonderful story and the drawings are well done.
