Synopsis | |
Review | Sakura no Kuchibiru (Lips of Sakura) by YORITA Saemi Ookura shuppan, Y600 (incl.tax) It's a collection of shorts, 4 about high school boys and 1 about a cat and his master (^^;), Yorita did some of june type mags published by Ookura shuppan. My overall impression of her works is soft. It's sweet but not to make me puke. Her drawing fits in this description as well with sensitive thin lines, somewhat arounder forms and less use of flashy tone effects. Here her biginner's unstable lines adds more to it as well. In all softness and sweetness are this sting or a shiver to tighten stories. In the title manga, a freshman (10th grade) Sakura (family name) became very close to a cool senior Hozumi. It was love in the first sight for Hozumi and goes to where his desire leads him with Saura who clearly shows his affection to Hozumi. But Sakura can't accept it, or at least that how he thinks he feels, or was he? The way Sakura's struggling with his confusion is very nice, especially when he tries Hozumi to back up by being rude. He knows what he's about to do to Hozumi, but doesn't want to face it, so that wonders his mind to distruct himself. This is as far as I can go for a day. This is very biased. For those who want to know Japanese infos, e.i. titles, manga-ka names, please send me an e-mail. Mikiko "how much I hate kanso-buns..." (Mikiko Yoshida) |
