I'll write this review as my appreciation to the artist, CUTEG, whom I really really like.
When this volume came out, I ordered it at once because CUTEG's trap is gl0rious and before I knew it, I've read it six times already.
STORY
First, what's this manga about? You might or might not get tricked by the cute girl cover, but if you find this manga, you either are told by your friend to read it, or you know it's gay but cute and it's your fetish.
Anyway, the story revolves around a middle school (boy), named Nozomu Hinonishi, meeting a college student, Shuuji Shirakawa by accident and Nozomu's
...
childhood friend, Hana Morisaki who has crush on the protagonist. Nozomu, for no reason, dressed as a girl with his sister's clothes and went out for a walk like that. That's it, until (s)he felt a sensation on his ass. I mean c'mon, who won't harass a cute girl like "her" in a cramped train? Some old man would.
With his ass being groped, of course he felt gross, but for some reason he could not scream and just stood there, trying to bear the sensation. Oooooh when we thought thing's going to get interesting, a superman named Shuuji came to rescue and drove the old man off. This event triggered their constant contact and meeting. Long story short, they had dates and Shuuji, albeit knowing Nozomu is a minor boy, still accepted her as he realized that he's a pedo.
Stories featuring traps as main character are mostly generic, and it also applies to this manga. It's just your usual romance with some spice of stupid conflict, however for some parts, it's rather funny. At least relationship between the main characters develops until the end, although conflict isn't deep. One keyword : jealousy. That's it, nothing special.
ART
I'll be honest, what I enjoyed the most from this manga is the art. CUTEG, or also known as kkam jwi in Korea, her birth place, has made wonderful works and amaze her fans with her cute, outstanding art. Yes, CUTEG's girls (in this case, boy) have round eyes and puffy cheeks, such cute style that's totally to my liking, not to mention all the fanservice drawings on the first pages. Wonderful. She also included maid uniform and sexy clothing. And it's a trap. Though drawing traps is just drawing girls but you add a bulge on the crotch, then you introduce it as a boy, CUTEG's drawing is still great and I won't get bored.
If it's CUTEG, I'll be glad to give 10/10 for art since I'm a big fan of her.
CHARACTER
As mentioned above, the story revolves around 3 characters, 4 minor and a goat.
To put it simply :
Main :
- Nozomu Hinohishi, our glorious trap
- Shuuji Shirakawa, that handsome guy
- Hana Morisaki, Nozomu's childhood friend
Minor :
- That sex harassing old man
- Nozomu's sister, oh she's pretty hot
- Student council president, he who turned gay
- Hirofumi, random classmate who also turned gay in first sight
Goat :
- Goat (one with collar), it got the best part in the story
Unfortunately, I found Hana to be rather annoying. She made things more complicated (but hey it's the conflict), and on top of that, did not even wonder that her male childhood friend likes a guy. But I'll leave it at that
ENJOYMENT
It's CUTEG so there's no question.
OVERALL
Generic plot, short stupid conflict and generic conclusion, including the not generic goat at the end. If you're solely looking for deep plot with conflict that requires readers to think with their brain, then this title isn't for you.
BUT, if you're a huge fan of cute things, or traps and you're in the market for some outstanding designed traps, then you won't regret reading this.
I'll give this a final score of 9/10, not 10 because no more Nozomu.
