Patalliro! addpermalink

Vaguely speaking, "From Eroica with Love" and "Patalliro!" both spoof spy stories (particularly James Bond) and earlier yaoi/BL manga series, but the commonalities don't end there.  In many ways, the variety of humor found in both of these series is quite similar; some of the jokes are slapstick and/or utterly silly, whereas other jokes are quite dry and clever and may require some thought.  Also, I find that both series reward their viewers for paying close attention and spotting details; often, something drawn in the backgrounds of scenes in both of these manga have brought smiles to my face.  Even the overall atmospheres of both "From Eroica in Love" and "Patalliro!" feel almost identical: one moment, you're biting your nails due to the suspense; the next moment, you're doubled-over in a fit of laughter.

Considering some of the rudimentary similarities of these two series, a decent number of "From Eroica with Love"/"Patalliro!" crossover doujinshi and fanfics are available.  And is it a coincidence that both of these series have a cult following in the United States?  I think not!

(Also, I thought that I should mention that the artwork both of these series have been heavily criticized by, er, um, younger, anime and manga fans.  Yes, I'm very aware that many young'uns think that the artwork of most '70s and '80s manga series is hideous, yet I've never seen any other "classic" shoujo titles receive the amount of bad-mouthing that these two titles have suffered.  Yeesh!) read more
