LOVE STAGE GN VOL 01: Volume 1

Wow... including a scene where one love interest damn near rapes another is not something I was particularly impressed with to say the least. Maybe I've run headlong into values dissonance here and got burned as a result, but I've got to say that in the West, sexual assault is generally something that we try to avoid in our romance fiction as rising bile doesn't leave one in a mood to root for two people getting together. Can't help but wonder if Ryoma had forcibly stripped a girl naked, groped her chest and began to literally drink her spit off her face as to whether this book would still be getting five stars across the board.Its a pity too, because outside of ''that'' there is a great book here. Izumi is adorable and endearing. The author absolutely brought out my ''just want to give him a hug'' instinct every time he was sad. There is some very well crafted humour, the art is fantastic, Izumi's protective brother is believably cool, Rei as the put upon but wise and concerned manager was great, even the whole plot concerning the marble was inspired.I want to continue this series due to its many plus points, but I can't say that I am left with the want for Izumi and Ryoga to be a couple.

Was drawn in by the anime and when I found out about the manga I just had to get it, was not disappointed. The story's just as amazing the romance is more in depth, if you've watched the anime you'll understand how you want it to be more in-depth! overall I really loved this series can't wait to get more hopefully it will go on longer than the anime and make my heart melt even more :D

Saw the anime, wondered "hmm, would the manga be much different" so I went ahead and bought it. Glad I did, the anime stopped just when it was getting good, the manga has no hesitations.

Arrived before due date, very pleased with it's condition and a brilliant book to read. Love the anime series so I thought I'd try the manga and it hasn't disappointed so far. Can't wait to collect the rest.

Loving the story, the art is great and the book came in perfect condition

love it and the animee

I really enjoyed this manga definitely watching the anime too thank you!

Very Addictive I really want to read more right away hahaha luckily I brought more chapters ha ha ha ha
