Velvet Kiss is arguably Harumi Chihiro's best work. By far, the marriage between plot and ecchi/hentai always is a good one to read and observe. Especially if done well. Between the constant sex scenes and themes rampant throughout this work, there is a tender love growing between the two main characters that can be observed as the chapters fly pass. This love, while not clear at first, begins to slowly reveal itself and is very satisfying to see, if not being one of the main reasons to read this.

Harumi Chihiro's art is aesthetically pleasing to the eye in more ways than one, and in ... Velvet Kiss this is no exception. Although the amount of sex she drew in Velvet Kiss was somewhat excessive, it is understandable at the same time as it is somewhat true to say that the sex drives the plot.

In and of itself, the sex that Kanoko experiences at the beginning of this work reveals how shallowly she lives her life at first, until she meets the male MC, a somewhat lucky salaryman named Nitta. As the work goes on, she begins to have feelings for only one man, Nitta, and only with him can she have pleasure. If one reads between the lines, one can see where the direction of the rest of the book is going.

Needless to say the character development is also pretty exceptional on Kanoko's part. She changes from a girl without a care for life to a girl with conviction and power, and yet still retaining a somewhat tender side for the man she loves. The transition is so well rendered and made and is well worth the read.

On the other hand Nitta doesn't change very much--he remains your atypical male tsundere. Strangely enough he doesn't chase after his feelings aggressively, like some male MC's do, instead he acts through his gained wisdom from work and life in general and the way he applies his wisdom and skill is nothing short of satisfying.

Most people don't care for H manga. Undoubtedly, I'd say once most people read this they will change their mind. Some H manga, such as many of Harumi Chihiro's works, are well written and carry a bold and fulfilling plot while boasting beautiful art to boot.

Again, definitely worth the read, especially in one sitting.

5 out of 5 stars for Harumi Chihiro's Velvet Kiss.

well i dont know how to even explain the Manga, also im very late to this since this Manga came out in 2009 and now its 9/11/2021 (EU) this Manga is very hard to understand and to be honest i still dont understand what this Manga was about haha. Well it has alot of sex and some coloured pages on the start (which some are sex pages mostly) the reason i dont like this Manga is the poor story i dont understand it at all read all the chapters yet all i know is sex and someone needing to pay debt. To be honest the ... only reason i fully read this was be cause of the hot scenes. anyways if youre horny read it for fun

You know, I read this manga after I bust a nut, I finished reading this manga after I bust a nut in like hours before I finished it. My point is, my horniness isn't going to be factor on how I will judge/rate this manga, my horniness wouldn't cloud my judgement and post nut clarity would also help me out on reviewing me this manga. I ain't gonna praise it or rate it high because I'm blinded by my horniness, and because it has many s*x scenes, as a man it is automatically good when you're horny, ... no. I'm observing and reviewing this without that shit so I'll try to be not biased about it, just because they showed naked girls.

First of all, if you're looking for a good drama series, don't pick this up, it is a bad forced drama. 2nd if you're feeling horny and don't want h*ntai manga shit, go pick this up, almost every chapter has s*x on it, it's like breathing to the characters. The author is horny as fuck when he/she was making this manga. I'd say 40-50 % of the manga shows a girl and boy having s*x, how lazy is that? every chapter the s*x scenes takes up like 4-5 pages minimum and sometimes it goes 6-7 pages, all of that to make the manga longer, without the s*x scenes, I bet It will be around 18-20 chapters long. Most of the times the s*x is just a filler, it doesn't help with the progression of the story, I get it if MC and the other girl (not the FMC) have s*x, that will establish the feelings of MC for the other girl, but most the times the s*x is there just to fill up the manga pages.

The drama is shit, you got a horny tsundere spoiled brat girl and a pushy weak ass beta MC (not as beta as the others, he man-up and smash the girl), you know this is what I don't understand about japanese people, when someone blackmail you, secretly play along with them while you gather evidence, or you could just fuck them off. There's a lot of problems here, blackmailing, pedophilia (middle aged man, teen girl having sex, I don't care if the girl started it, as an adult male, you're the one who's supposed to stop this behavior), technically reverse rape (teen girl "forced" our MC doing it, if it was the other way around it would be called rape, so it's fair to say that this is reverse rape case) and so many others.

The story without the sex isn't really enticing enough, most of the girls are all sl*ts, the only proper girls are the MC's workmates, I was rooting for the glasses girl workmate, but the MC got in loved with another useless girl, then he got NTR'd then calls back the main girl again (which is in teens btw) & uses her as rebound, a safety net, then everything that went wrong with them got solved through s*x, come on how can I take the story seriously now? suddenly all their conflicting personalities got solved through s*x? so that they can force the MC and heroine to reconcile? I also believe that the author got lazy with the other girl "saeki" if I remember correctly, the fastest way for her to get out of the picture was to NTR the MC, looks like the author heard that this series wouldn't be around any longer that's why he/she take the NTR route for fastest way to get saeki out of the picture and gave kanako and MC the reconciliation sex. The drama with her step-mom/aunt, it's all BS for me and that's what I was talking about the forced drama. I believe the author didn't intend to make the step-mother the villain, I think it was Yuki-san (the other rich boy who seems interested in our FMC kanoko) but since the series is nearing its end, the author needed something for FMC and MC to unite, that's why the author make her an enemy, which I think is BS.
