#fallintomangalove readathon Prompt: Read a Josei title

Hmm.Have read volumes 1 through 13. Still don't know what's supposed to be going on.I would give the pretty artwork 4 stars, although the quasi-realistic style, without exaggerated caricature, makes many of the characters hard to tell apart at a glance, or even a second glance, which adds to the confusion. The cat ears as outward and visible markers of virginity, I can roll with as psychological symbolism, because what else is this medium for. The child-abuse themes, well, they were trendy back

i didnt really read the manga i watched the anime...and so far i didnt know what was going on...like in the middle of the anime show they had some spells and powers?, then the guy with the non-cat ears and tails fell inlove witht eh 12 year old boy...and he was in his twenties...i dont know what is going on...and out of no where soubi kissed the ritsuka...

"You also never told me to not love you"

I think this is the first manga volume I've ever read all the way through. It's odd. And a little queer, which I guess is good. Unfortunately, it's also a little confusing. I like the general idea, but in terms of actually getting to a story, this collection is lacking. Not sure if I want to continue reading it.Twelve year old Ritsuka's brother has died. And the Ritsuka we get to meet only has memories from the past two years. He has forgotten the things that come before. There's a traumatic eve...

Beautiful art and a captivating story. I don't need anything else.

…Even if there is no sex, the relationship between the 12 year old boy and the adult man intentionally gives pedo/grooming vibes. There is absolutely zero necessity for making them need to kiss to battle (or whatever), it’s just an excuse to make them kiss. I think books like this allow people to normalise/romanticise grooming type of relationships and that’s not on.

This is such a great manga! It started off a little slow, but by the end, I was so sucked in that I didn't realize I'd reached the end until I turned the page and it was over! The characters are quite interesting and varied, as are the relationships between them. The magical battles, and the method of using words to battle, was really unique in my opinion, or at least the way it's executed is unique, since its different from all the gaudy latin spellcraft or oddly-named special moves that most m...

I actually have the 2-in-1 omnibus, but I'm reviewing the two volumes separately since there was a pretty big jump in art quality from vol. 1 to vol. 2.The first volume is confusing as hell. I want you to look at this page:The light-haired kid at the top is the exact same character as the dark-haired kid at the bottom. And the first panel, despite the texture which screams "I am a memory", is actually happening in real time and it's not a memory at all. I spent most of the first volume playing,

Yeah, this is a no from me.I would summarize this for you, but honestly, I don't even know what's supposed to be going on. Our main character is 12 years old, and his brother was violently murdered by someone for reasons unknown. That's all I know.The MC shows up at school and immediately has all of these super sexist thoughts about all the girls at his school, who, in his defense, are portrayed as completely and utterly stupid ninnies who refer to themselves in the third person. Their personali...

It's kind of weird to call this manga "yaoi" since there's no sex at all and the main hero is a 12-year-old boy. But it doesn't fit in the "non-yaoi" category either because of the way Soubi restores his energy - through a kiss. But Soubi is adamant that he feels no sexual desire for Ritsuka, he says that maybe one day they will have sex but not until Ritsuka grows up. Besides that, this volume is overall rather weird - Yun Kouga tries to raise interest without revealing the plot and that leads

Loveless- great story but I'm uncomfortable with the relationship age gap. He's 11 and the other one is 20. The middle schooler is kissing him, but it not like sex, perhaps a power thing ? but the older one says things like now I'm getting hard...... I really have this cringe thing going on when I got the ages. I know it's a Manga, not real but ... well I'll move on the rest of the series before I put my judgmental Judy cap on and slam the hammer down. I've only seen glimpses and there could be

Review of volumes 1-13. I toss around the descriptor "id fic" a lot because it's a style I seek out, but almost nothing is as id as this: after his brother's mysterious violent death, a 12 year old boy with cat ears that denote his virginity-aka-youth inherits a college student who professes who love and serve him in magical battles where words become spells and injury is signified by BDSM gear. It's profoundly "problematic," in ways which aren't meant to be examined but function instead as roma...

Compared to many, I'm a manga novice. I didn't grow up with Disney. Art classes were purgatory. As a writer, I tell stories with words. Telling stories with pictures never really got me. But the few mangaka I've recently been introduced to are slowly changing my mind. Yun Kouga is certainly one of them - mainly due to Loveless.Some people find this story disturbing, given that the main characters are both male. When I see a good love story, I tend not to worry about gender. Finding love is somet...

Love this series. No matter how many times I read it, I still enjoy it more every time.

This sucked.... A 20 year old guy with a Twelve year old? talk about paedophilism...BELH!

I first read Loveless over 10 years ago, when I was about the same age as Ritsuka. I really enjoyed rereading it as an adult. Back in the day I read through volume 8, so I’m excited to get back into it and hopefully finish the series. As a pre-teen I remember thinking Loveless was really scandalous, due to the relationship between Ritsuka and Soubi. Now I think, at least in volume 1, the story follows really damaged characters, but I don’t think the relationship is explicitly inappropriate, just...

So I went through this strange shounen-ai period for a while, I blame 4chan and teenage sexual confusion. Also having no straight friends, but I don't really blame them. I think I have the first 6 volumes of this series. The only other manga I actually own are the 2 FLCL volumes, so I hope this says a lot. I only buy a manga when the art and the story completely blow me away, which they did in this, utterly, when I first read it. A friend lent it to me, but a few pages in I thought "I MUST POSSE...
