3.0 out of 5 stars
Okay Compilation, April 14, 2008
This review is from: The King Of Debt (Yaoi) (Paperback)
King of Debt is a compilation of several stories. The title story, deals with Souta and Taketora (the King). I liked this story but it was over quite fast. I also liked the story titled, "My Dear, My Bear". There were several other stories. All the stories have explicit intimate scenes, which are somewhat graphic. My only complaint is the stories were over too fast and I was not really able to get into them before they were over. If you like short stories that shall we say, get too the point, then get this manga. If you're looking for something to get invested in then steer clear.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Nice artwork, explicit sex but some story lines could have been better. 3.5 stars, June 6, 2008
This review is from: The King Of Debt (Yaoi) (Paperback)
Good artwork here with explicit sex. And of course nice packaging from 801 Media. 5 stories here. The first 3 are a good read but the last 2 are somewhat lacking.
The King of debt has an engaging and amusing story line. Would be better if this one is longer.
Rush about a young aspired boxer being trained by an older gifted ex-boxer, who was forced to retire because of injuries, is a nice one and I like the 2 characters. Here the uke is the older and more demanding one.
"My dear my bear" is sweet as one lonely kid abandoned by his sole family member finds solace in the arms of his "bear", who has conveniently changed into one handsome hunk.
Not much plot in "Call my name", which also ends somewhat hanging. And I do not like the forceful seme here.
VS about male hostesses in a bar where one new rookie strives to upstage the most popular no.1 male hostess has a good set up but somehow falters towards the end. Disappointed that this one is not better developed.
The last short bonus where all 5 stories are brought together in a few pages is refreshing.
Overall a pretty good read for an anthology, with the nice artwork and sex scenes.

A+ for the King of Debt!, May 21, 2008
This review is from: The King Of Debt (Yaoi) (Paperback)
I loved the stories especially the extra one at the bar that brought all the stories together. That was really fun. And the art work was great too.
