A bit flat
|
|
I got this manga on the back of the good reviews. It was not as good as Wild rock and definitely not entertaining for me. The main story about the man/dog is just as short as the other two. It's just advertised as the main one. I did not really find it funny. It did not bring up any situation that I did not expect from the idea of a dog turning into a lover ... I guess it's difficult to create meaningful stories in such a short space, and maybe yaoi is not really the right media to do so. Anyhow, I found this manga rather flat. The artwork is not bad but not original enough to save this volume. If you want something more arty and meaningful, check "Innocent birds" or if you want a really original plot with a dash of humour (and yaoi) try the excellent "Love Pistols".

Fun Read

Hilarious, but then Kazusa Takashima does humour very well. Kazusa always draws the most gorgeous bishies (look no further than Wild Rock), and Man's Best Friend is just as beautifully drawn. The print work and paper is of good quality and easy to read/see, although not in the Japanese floppy style (but that's my preferred syle) . For hardcore yaoi fans you will not find anything too explicit, although the love scenes are touching and some action can be had. This is a fun entertaining read, I highly recommend it.

Great set of oneshots

It is a set of three short unrelated stories with different sets of characters in their own settings. The artwork is nice to look at for a start, and the logic in the panelling makes it easy to read. All the characters are distinctive and likeable in their own way. It has lots of funny moments, especially in the main cover story. I'd say out of the three, the cover story is definitely the best, but the others are very worthwhile reads too. The content isn't entirely explicit, but it comes reasonably close in some scenes. I'd highly recommend this manga for any yaoi fan.

So cute and funny!

I really wish I had my own Kuro! Basically this manga is made up of three short stories ~ All of them are sweet and fun to read! I love the first one "Man's Best Friend" It's not a 100% full on- hardcore piece but there are a few naughty bits, and it's full of lovely bishies too... not an annoying girl in sight! yey! I strongly suggest you give this a try!
