Product quality is one of the best in the US market, so there are no complaints there, 801-media has offered a beautiful product to the consumer once again.
The story is cute and super sweet, as the uke worries about his manliness, he refuses his boyfriend's (and best friend) advances. It is ultimately a tale of moving past friends to lovers and all the awkwardness that ensues, while coming to terms with the roles played in a relationship with two males.
If not the best BL title out there, it is worth having just because of the beautiful art (particularly the hot seme) and nice, slow paced story. It's a keeper in my BL collection

OK so this series is very cuties and I would recommend this for people newer to yaoi. It has a very cute story line that takes place between 4 friends equals 2 couples FYI. An yes it dose have your typical fell of boy accepting loving a boy story and going to others for advice...Don't want to tell to much but that is a short jiff of it. I for one have sort of moved past the kiddy love stores so I was a little bored with this one waiting for things to move on but I have read a lot of yaoi and tend to prefer the ones that get to the point if you know what I mean. But in all fairness I do think it was worth buying and is one I would read more than once.

I finally broke down and bought this book after reading favorable reviews (here and on other sites), only to be slightly disappointed. This book contains 9 short stories and the first 5 are about best friends turned lovers, Yamaguchi and Takagari. For as much as I liked the Takagari character I found Yamaguchi very annoying. I give these a total rating of 3. Note: Apparenty these are a sequel (haven't found the prequel released in english in US), maybe I would appreciate their story more if I were able to read the prequel.

I like the characters in the 4 additional shorts a lot more.

I found 3 of the additional shorts; A Giving Man, The Pure Love Wolf, and The Wolf Next Door; to be funny and sexy! Whereas the last short, Love and Work (which I also like) is a little more serious and more about emotions and being able to connect with that special person. I give these a total rating of 4.

This mangaka's artwork is absolutely beautiful, even if her male charcters tend to look similar from story to story.

Good publishing job from 801 Media.
