What it's about: A middle-weight boxing champion, a rich 30-something, and a gay baker! What more could you ask for? The story revolves around 32-year-old Ono Yusuke, an amazingly good-looking baker who has a knack for snagging any guy who is his types. A regular 'Gay of Devilish Charms'. Tachibana Keiichiro, the store manager and owner, and the only guy to ever escape Ono's grasp! Ono confessed his love to him at graduation time in high school, only to be coldly rejected and told to 'Go to hell Homo'. And then comes in the cute and 21-year-old Kanda Eiji. This kid, despite being the youngest, has the most colorful past and the brightest future. Now an apprentice of Ono's, things are sure to heat up when customers and old friend alike come to the shop!
My Opinion: Well, being so much like Ono, I can find sympathy in this manga so well. There are many laughs, and you can't help but squeal sometimes. But like any good story, it's not all fun and games. Everyone has a past, all inevitably getting worse after worse -- but not the story! This has got to be one of my favorite manga's of all time, it rivals the structure of a true story as well. Ono has a flair for being a whore, and he pulls it off better than anyone else around. All the guys and girls drool after him, but sour Tachibana still eludes. A story worth reading because it's more than just pictures -- it's a novel within itself.

Aw, are you sick? Get better soon. Anyway, dropping by while doing research for my assignment. I've seen that manga around in stores for a while, but never thought to go and read it, really. Haha. xD Maybe it's time to try. I should stop judging a book by its.... cover and name and.. yeah. xD
