CLAMP School Paranormal Investigators Volume 3 (Clamp School Case Files; Paranormal Investigators) 1 review Tomiyuki Matsumoto, Jamie S. Rich
TokyoPop, 2005
short, yet still entertaining
This novel is an extension of the world created in the light-hearted CLAMP School manga such as CLAMP School Detectives, Campus Defenders Duklyon, and Man of Many Faces, even with the inclusion of campus-destroying monsters. The characters aren't similar to the ones in that run of manga, however; ...

J-Boys By Biblos (Yaoi) 9 reviews Various
Digital Manga Publishing, 2006
You Get What You Buy
+ Interesting! (3.5 stars) + A great bargain!
It's a book containing a lot of manga shorts. I'll admit that some of the stories are a lot better than others, at least in my opinion, but this book gave me a lot of ideas too.
Because I got this book I now have a whole new list of artists and stories that I'm interested. It's a really nice ...

TokyoPop, 2003
A comedy super hero force?
+ Duklyon: Clamp School Defenders + I love parody
I swear... Clamp has really done it this time. I have read this book over and over and over but I never tire of it. It is so funny. And it is really what happens when a serious, good student suddenly is put on a super hero fighting team to protect a school where all they do is party with a complete ...

Lover's Flat (Yaoi) 3 reviews Hyouta Fujiyama
Digital Manga Publishing, 2007
Sweet love in a "one-room" flat.
+ One of my favorites! + Charming!
The 2 couples here are endearing, their stories sweet, refreshing and engaging. Kouno stays by himself in a small studio apartment and is often visited by his close friend, Natsu. Their relationship from "f..." buddies to lovers is nicely done, with Kouno's unhappy past adding angst and tenderness ...

Tempestuous 4 reviews Morgan Hawke
eXtasy Books, 2006
You won't regret reading this!!!
+ Tempestuous by Morgan Hawke + Eaterofbooks
I love this book! Its most certainly Yaoi. It has depth, feeling, it has it all. This book is way better than Torrid by Morgan Hawke. (I have Torrid in my collection also). Tempestuous has a plot, its funny in places, it has a relationship between the characters, not just sex. However there is ...

ComicsOne, 2003
...Even better now that I can read them!
+ Nice to finally be able to properly read the pages! + Very interesting older horror manga
I loved this series back in the day... they started me on a huge love of manga that lasted for years. I loved the dark, devilish figure of Deimos... I still like the art, even the more cartoony earlier issues. The stories seemed like an excuse to commit murder and mayhem, but as they ARE horror ...

Manga of Humanity
+ marvelous book + Great story, some oddities in editing
This is a very special manga and a piece of literature. First of all, for those who have never read a Tezuka manga, you'd be distracted by the inferiority of the artwork by today's standard. By if you can ignore that, you'll find the storyline is one of the greatest achievements in literary ...

+ Cute gender-switching/bending manga + A review of Your & my secreat
Funny series, really funny. The sexual humor may be a bit crude at times, and I'd reccommend the book for ages 16+ definitely, but it's entertaining without being totally tasteless.
Tokyopop appears to have gotten ahold of the licence, but they've changed the title to "Boku to Kanojo no XXX"so ...

Bow Wow Wata Volume 1 3 reviews Umekawa Kazumi
Gutsoon Entertainment, 2004
Touching, funny comic with beautiful art and cute animals
+ Get this if you can! + Best manga for animal lovers
I picked this one up on a whim, because I loved the cute name, the adorable art, and the concept of a boy who can talk to animals. Well, sometimes when you do that you end up regretting it, but I have to say that I loved Bow Wow Wata. The premise of the story is a simple one. Our main character is ...

Prisoner Of The Immortal (Yaoi) 10 reviews Insanity Team
Yaoi Press, 2005
Offered to a Demon
I'm only giving this book a 4 because of the 2 stories in the back. I really LOVED Offered to a Demon. It's the best yaoi story I've ever read and it's really hot! I absolutely hate the main story, but only because it lacks story and makes no sense. The more gorish story in the back is still a good ...
