Cute!, March 15, 2009
This review is from: Love Round!! (Yaoi) (Deux) (Paperback)
This manga was cute, but not in a saccharin, nauseating sort of way. I found myself laughing out loud every other page because some of the moments in this book are just too great, in an omg I can believe I just read that sort of way (wet dream/nightmare lol). Its a oneshot about a little uke with a girly name who gets completely bent out of shape when someone brings it up. One of his victims, the seme, just so happens to be a boxer and thinks the little guy packs quite a punch. That's just the beginning of their awkward and evolving relationship. Oh, and fyi not a whole lot of sex in this, but I (a hardcore yaoi fiend) really didn't mind.

An entertaining read, May 26, 2009
This review is from: Love Round!! (Yaoi) (Deux) (Paperback)
The story centres around Komatsuna, a high school student who has a complex about his thin body and feminine name and looks. He meets a classmate, Kubo, who introduces him to boxing, after he realises Komatsuna has an unusually strong punch.
The focus of the story is on Komatsuna and Kubo and the relationship that develops between them. The overall tone is completely light-hearted, which makes this a fun and entertaining read. As with Hinako Takanaga's other work, the artwork is really pretty. The characters are also well developed. There isn't really anything that explicit in this manga but there are a couple of hot scenes.
If you're looking for a cute, entertaining read, this is well worth picking up!

Love Round, Keeps you Laughing in Every Chapter!, January 5, 2011
This review is from: Love Round!! (Yaoi) (Deux) (Paperback)
Hi there.
I must admit, when I saw the cover of this book, I thought of a couple of sweaty boxer guys? I thought that it wouldn't be a good story.
I was so wrong.
A Pro Boxer, Kubo, meets Kaoru. Kaoru hates that fact that he has a girly name and wants nothing more than to be manly as possible. But when Kubo makes fun of Kaoru's name, Karou "KO" Kubo in an instant. Kubo admires Kaoru strength and asks him to train with him to become a boxer. Slowly, they began to love one another, which was very sweet and Karou admits he has feelings for Kubo. This yaoi manga is so hilarious, I just love it when Karou gets so angry and "KO" Kubo into the ground or into the sky.
From the author who brought you The Tyrant Falls in Love, you will not be disappointed.
PS, this manga kinda of reminded me of Hands Off! by Kasane Katsumoto, which I also recommend.
