Both of these mangas are about people who know they would logically be better off not being romantically/sexually involved, but also find it impossible and ultimately undesireable to do so.

Apr 27, 200839 of ? chapters read 3 of 6 people found this review helpful Even though I've tried, I haven't been able to find a story as tragic as Bronze. Bronze is all about desperate love. I love it. Sometimes it really feels like the characters are crazy. I've read many manga with better stories, art and characters but Bronze beats them all. Bronze is just so full of feeling it can't be called anything else but a masterpiece. Bronze is better than its prequel Zetsuai but I still recommend you read Zetsuai first. Some things are pretty hard to understand if you have...n't read Zetsuai. Believe me, I know, since I read Bronze first and after that found out about Zetsuai. read more

Oct 6, 20087 of ? chapters read 0 of 4 people found this review helpful So far this is great. It is moving a little faster than "Zetsuai" did at the first part of the series, but I am only up to Volume 3 so we will have to wait and see what happens next. People have said that "Bronze" is better than "Zetsuai", but I don't agree with that assessment. "Zetsuai" was a slow agonizing pain, whereas, "Bronze" as the feel of a continuous stabing pain that is unending, faster and unyielding. They both have their merits and a...re both masterpieces in their own way. I do not know if this was the author's intent, but I can see the logic in the pace of the two stories. (Next Part very minor spoiler so don't read if you don't want to)
In "Zetsuai", Izumi soccer career and emotions are somewhat at a standstill because of his past. Therefore, the story moves at a slower pace. In "Bronze", Izumi's soccer career is speeding ahead so maybe there was the need for the story to follow in his footsteps, figuratively and literally. read more
