The best yaoi I have ever seen

I have absolutely enjoyed this anime! The genre is yaoi (love between boys) and it was originally intended for girls. If you haven't watched anything like this before, you shouldn't be prejudiced about it, and at least see the first 2 or 3 episodes. If you have an open mind, i am sure you will like it.

The series focus mainly on the story between Takahashi Misaki(18) and Usami Akihiko(28), but there are other couples as well, known as Junjo Egoist and Junjo Terrorist; all the characters are very different, but they form great pairs, and it feels like there's nothing wrong with them being together.

Basically Akihiko (nick-named Usagi) is a popular writer, and a close friend of Misaki's brother. He becomes the boy's tutor, and when Misaki barges into his room yelling at him, and waking him up, he starts coming onto him. Misaki is very confused by all this, but they eventually fall in love. This anime is very romantic, and funny as well, mainly because Misaki keeps getting himself into trouble all the time.

The anime follows the manga almost word for word, but it is more censored. I recommend reading the manga afterwords if you want to see more detailed scenes or some scenes that have been cut from the anime. The voice actors are amazing and they have wonderful voices - especially Hanada-san (Akihiko).

I am usually very picky when it comes to yaoi because i don't like it when they dress up as girls, or how there are no women at all in the show... so this is by far the best yaoi i have ever seen.

Aaaaaaawwwwwww!!!

This anime is just ... adorable. The characters are layered and interesting, the romances are too cute, and you might not be able to stop laughing. IT. IS. SO. FUNNY. And it's the little details that make it hilarious, such as the bears (UDON BEAR! :D) and Usagi's obsession with collecting bizarre things, because every time they sneak into the story you can't help but crack out laughing. Initially, I didn't want to know *anything* about all the other people who have their own episodes, because - MOAR USAGI AND MISAKI, M'KAY?! (It didn't help that I couldn't tell them apart at first. It really didn't. I spent half an episode wondering what (and who) the hell I was watching before Usagi showed up at Hiroki's door and it finally clicked.) But the other characters will grow on you, so stick with it! :) Anyway, if you're looking for a romantic comedy anime with some totally sweet (and not graphic at all) boy lovin' - DO NOT LOOK ANY FURTHER!!! Enjoy. And you're welcome! (",)
