ひとりじめマイヒーロー 1 [Hitorijime My Hero 1] by Memeko Arii

4.0

I'll be honest: the setting isn't the kind of setting I usually like or approve. I mean, a relationship between a 15-year old and his teacher? While the latter is mitigated by the fact that their relationship did't start as teacher and student (the teacher is the older brother of the other guy's friend), the 12 year old age difference remains. On the other hand, the way Setagawa (the student) is drawn makes him seem much older. And I ended up loving Setagawa a whole lot.

And while I would have been delighted if Kousuke was a little younger, their relationship both has the uke/seme dynamic and at the same time it hasn't. It helps that you get to see Kousuke's POV as well (in volume two, however).

If there is one thing I didn't like it's that it's a little too hyper. There are serious moments, but they kind of get lost among the gags.

But overall I really enjoyed reading this, even though it's not what I typically like. The art was good, too. And Setagawa is the most adorable little yankee character ever, omg.
