5.0 out of 5 stars A must read yaoi manga series,its awesome!, 1 Aug 2008
This is a must read for any yaoi or manga reader! The series is based on maleXmale relationships with interesting storylines that make you laugh and maybe a little tear in your eye!
The first couple that appears is junjou romantica couple misaki and usami(aka usagi) misaki's reactions will definetly make you wet yourself as he experiences his first gay relationship with our oh so cool and calm minded usagi.Misaki is a economics student who reluctantly becomes usagi's eye of affection.Usagi san is a well known and award winning novelist who does yaoi books on the side which he includes details of his love affairs and fantasies with misaki.Of course poor misaki goes mental about it and it takes him time to figure his feelings for usagi but there are some interesting moments of course that make you wet yourself.
Our second couple the junjou egoist couple nowaki and hiroki(hiro-san). Hiro-san is heart broken as he is in love with his childhood friend usagi-san. He suddenly bumps into nowaki who wants to be tutored by hiro-san but actually has fallen in love with him.Nowaki is a optimistic sweety that just wants to make hiro-san smile again.These two go through alot and get stronger from it but there are moments.....enough if you want the juice of it read the series, some of the moments with hiro-san and nowaki make you either want to cry or laugh your heart out.
Our third couple the junjou terrorist couple has a smaller yet cute part of the series. Shinobu is a young man who suddenly falls in love with myagi a literature professor who tries to.... well tell shinobu hes not interested. Well shinobu thinks its destiny and is very persistent so please read and you will find out the whole story. Like the other couples these two will make you laugh till your ears pop.
Well hope I havent ruined your reading pleasure but you wont know the whole and proper story till you read it and trust me this series is worth the money, there is even an anime out but its still to be realeased on DVD as its only just finnished being aired on Japanese TV.All three couples are interlinked with different charcters so it all adds to one big storyline. Please read the books, I have the first 5 volumes so far and its awesome!

5.0 out of 5 stars great storyline, 9 Jan 2008
Now, for the first time ever, I like a yaoi manga's storyline more than the artwork. I'm not saying that the drawing style is appaling, but it's far from being beautiful. I'd say that it's OK.
But the storyline...is absolutely fantastic.
You actually get to follow 2 couples :
Junjo Romantica with the spirited, ever so funny and angsty Misaki and his lover-to-be the confident and cool Usami.
Junjo Egoist with the heart broken teacher Hiroki and the ever optimistic student Nowaki.
Both stories are linked and characters from one story are appearing every so often in the other one.
It is a very compelling book, with lots of sexy scenes, really fun (the humor is what sold it to me), and will have you on a rollercoaster of emotions.
A definite read.
An anime series is even being announced!

5.0 out of 5 stars A sweet, entertaining series, 31 May 2009
By kaya j (U.K.) - See all my reviews
The story in this volume actually revolves around two couples. The first and main couple in the series are Usagi, a rich and eccentric famous novelist, and Misaki, a high school student about to apply to university. Usagi, is basically a close friend of Misaki's older brother and the story begins with Usagi tutoring Misaki. It turns out that Usagi has always had hidden feelings for Misaki's brother and the story in this volume is about how he eventually resolves these feelings. This volume is also about the relationship that develops between Usagi and Misaki.

Although this may sound very angsty and serious, let me just say that overall, this series is a very fun, entertaining read. Usagi's eccentricities are really hilarious and in general, the tone is pretty light hearted, especially in the following volumes. Both characters are well developed and likeable, especially the straightforward, honest, Misaki, who we are following.


The other story revolves around Hiro and Nowaki. Hiro, a university student, is basically an old friend of Usagi's and the story begins when he is trying to let go of the unrequited feelings he has had for Usagi for years. The story here is about when he meets Nowaki and the relationship that develops between them. Again, the tone is pretty light hearted. Both characters are really likeable and sweet, both Nowaki, who is sincere and straightforward, and especially Hiro, who is kind hearted but finds it hard to express what he feels. I completely love Hiro and Nowaki's story, something about it is just very sweet and moving. Their story continues in the next volumes along with Usagi and Misaki's.

The artwork is slightly unconventional but as far as I'm concerned is still lovely. I got used to the style quite quickly and think the characters are very pretty. Although there isn't anything completely explicit, there are a number of very hot scenes in both storylines. In general, this series is a really hot read.

Overall, this manga is just completely solid and engaging. After reading the next volumes I've found myself completely in love with and addicted to this series. There's just something very sweet, moving and entertaining about it. I definitely recommend it!
