Having your way with a maid in school...nice thing, isn't it? ;-)
It's a short, colored chapter. I thought "wow, this looks easy to do", so I translated it^^
Mizoro Tadashi...never heard of him earlier. Apparently he's only done such short, 4-page-colored chapters so far, and also not too many of them. Well, I think this chapter wasn't bad, so I hope he'll do some more in future ;-)
Well, today I wanted to talk a bit about the mangas I read recently (in the free time I have when I don't study for the exams).
Especially I was interested in this genre called 'Smut', which can be described as 'mangas containing sexual offensive stuff'. So basically it's mangas where sex between characters isn't an absolute taboo thing to happen, unlike in most mangas I know. Well then, here we go:
My first recommendation is Akkan Baby. It's a manga about teen pregnancy with lots of humor, some drama and two very lovable main characters. The manga's far from perfect, since a lots of problems of teen pregnancy are solved in a pretty cliche way and the characters aren't too deep. But still, it's cool that a topic like that is actually covered in a manga. It's not a perfect manga about teen pregnancy, but a pretty amusing and entertaining one^^ Give it a try! ;-)
Second recommendation is Kanojo wa Sore wo Gaman Dekinai.
Well, it's a pretty strange one^^
The main character wears a dog suit all the time because of stuff happened in the past and then a new trainee teacher appears, who seems to be pretty fond of his...smell. The manga's basically about the 'weirdness' in people, and that makes it pretty interesting. Also I liked here that every character feels human and not just one-sided. Well, it's a pretty cool manga and it's just one volume, so give it a shot! ;-)
Next is Minamoto-kun Monogatari, also probably the strangest one from this list.
Lots of stuff that doesn't happen in usual romance/harem/ecchi animes happen here. Basically it's about a guy who was bullied in the past by girls who decides now to bang every chick he meets - of course only in talk. But his hot, but weird aunt decides to help him out with that, calling it a 'research project'. So he approaches different girls...and they don't just stop at holding hands ;-)
Really, in some moments, this manga is closer to hentai than anything else^^
But it's really good, since it's pretty interesting and makes to think about the meaning of a relationship. The main character isn't very likable imho, but that makes him more realistic.
I'm really curious how it will continue and if you want to read a hot manga, if it a chance ;-)
Another one is Honeymoon Salad, which is about a middle-aged guy, who starts living together with his ex-girlfriend from high school and another woman, who seems to have some own problems. Harem story, yay! Well, it's pretty fun to read since his ex is a pretty entertaining character and you're curious about how the relationships will develop. What I want to critize is that the end felt kinda rushed to me - not 'time-in-the-story'-wise, but 'too-less-chapters-in-this-part'-wise. About the ending, I think it's actually satisfying, but I would've loved to see more about it. It's kinda stops when you actually want to see more about their daily life.
Still, it's a really nice story (and it even got a prequel which I gotta check out), so read it ;-)
Last one isn't from the 'Smut' genre, but rather a Korean web-manga (or Manhwa, if you're more happy with that) called Girls of the Wild's. It's about a poor guy who lives alone with his two siblings who joins a girl's school which is co-ed now, since he got a scholarship there. What he didn't knew - the school's all about fighting and the girls there are among the strongest in the world^^ Sounds pretty funny, and it IS funny and also got some cute, lovable characters (dal dal^^), but there's more to it. Bullies from his old school appear and trouble him again, and he has to decide - staying the way or fighting back - which isn't that easy of a decision since he doesn't think too high of fighting. He wants to learn in school and earn enough money to feed his siblings, that's all. Well, you see, it's not a perfect happy world here, but still the characters manage to have fun, which makes it more interesting.
It's also drawn very nicely imho, you should give it a shot ;-)
Uh, wrote too much, I guess^^
Well, see you next time ;-)


short but sweet. the girl made some nice faces in this
ReplyDeleteSplendid maid. Many thanx Mumei.
ReplyDeleteI thought "Smut" was borderline-H tags for shoujo an josei only?
ReplyDeletebut Honeymoon Salad, Minamoto and Naojo Gaman are Seinen
ok you just gave another reason to start reading Honeymoon Salad right now
I was planning to read it long ago but always forget to do
Uh, no idea what the official definition of smut is^^
DeleteI personally think of it just as non-hentai, commercial manga which involves sex as a rather important part of the story, or something like that, i.e., I couldn't couldn't Kiss x Sis as smut.
Anyway, you should definitely check those mangas out! And when you're done reading, feel free to leave a comment about what you thought about it! ;-)
