(SUPER GOOD)    
(Love It!!)     I totally love this new series. I have since bought the whole series so far and am waiting anxiously for the next volume. I hear there is also an anime based on this story line. I highly recommend it. It is very funny and totally wicked. The drawings are nice and you will love the two storylines. I couldn't put it down once I started to read it. You will totally love this one. --of your time, as much as your money. I enjoyed the first two volumes of this series because of the beautiful artwork and the hilarious antics of the characters. And let's face it, what fangirl wouldn't get a kick out of a story where one of the central characters is a BL (Boy's Love) writer? It is fun to watch Usami swing from ridiculous to (ostensibly) serious and back again, and Misaki's frequent spaz-attacks are as priceless as his confusion over his deepening feelings for Usami is sweet.
I would have been content with the series as a humorous gag-type love story, but volume 3 surprised me with its unexpected deepening of the characters, as well as the plot. We see a greater range of emotion, which it seems Misaki and Usami have been trying to avoid in their tentative relationship with each other--but it was the expression on Usami's face in the 'laundry' scene which was the clincher for me!
A gorgeous series, and I can't wait for the next volume. The discription of this book is rather correct in the previous post. The characters keep their identities from the other books and this book is just another delight to read. Be warned: The chapters on Hiro and Nowaki do not finish a plot sequence so you get quite a bit of a cliff hanger at the end. However, it really just makes waiting for the next book that much sweeter! This series has a great story and is about a young man comming to terms with his love of another man. In this book Misaki questions his relationshop with Usami and togther they go on a date hower it is interupted. Later Misaki's brother asks Misaki to move back in with him and his wife. Also in this book, Hiro trys to nurse Nowaki back to health and we also get a glimpse of a time before Hiro meets Nowaki.
This is a great book with a wonderful story and the drawings are well done. Sometimes the road to romance and true love can be filled with deep, dark potholes... When Misaki begins to seriously question his relationship with Usami, a high-class date might reveal the truth about their bond. But during their time together, the couple is interrupted by the loudmouth and rude Ryuichiro--who drops hints about Usami's true nature! And in the next Junjou Egoist story, Hiro goes to the extreme to nurse his lover, Nowaki, back to health...unaware that Nowaki's "sickness" might not have a cure!

If you have followed Love Mode until now, there is no way you could stop. Volume 9 is just as emotionally driven and so deeply moving, Yuki Shimizu doing a marvelous job builing her characters and the stirring and engrossing plot. I will not even try to rehatch the plot as it would not do the plot justice. This story arc is just so amazingly and emotionally written as I feel deeply for Kiichi, Haruomi and his twin brother. Definitely a love triangle there but we all know the good doctor has chosen well. And how better to end this story arc than on a sexy note. A marvelous Volume 9! The flashback continues...After Haruomi saves Kiichi from Miyamoto, he decides to look for his long-lost twin brother Tien--who unexpectedly shows up at the Aoe household to kidnap Kiichi! Will Tien finally forgive his brother for abandoning him? And with all that Haruomi and Kiichi have been through, will these two become more than just friends? Find out how Haruomi and Kiichi got together in this love-filled volume of Love Mode! Rerations < LOVE MODE Volume 9: (Yaoi) (Love Mode) >

(Vampires + yaoi = yummy!)     I love Sadahiro Mika. Love, Love, Love. She can do no wrong in my book but something about Pathos just doesn't sit well with me. Its not bad. I really like the angst level of the book. The whole conflict with Ace being in love with Jay and Jay being attracted to Ace but shackled to King, albeit loosely, and Jays inner turmoil and guilt about being drawn to Ace is really interesting. The main characters being Vampires is always a plus too. The thing I really don't like is probably the fact that Ace looks so childish. Thats my main pet peeve with yaoi in general. He definitely looks hot when he gets older though... I guess the first part of this series is pretty good but I have read both parts and I think maybe thats why I'm hesitant about giving Pathos 5 stars. I'm not gonna give away the ending but I guarantee it will leave you saying "huh?" Although not as outrageously smutty as some yaoi, this manga is absolutely delightful. As the book description states, Pathos is the story of 2 men (vampires) raising a human child. The younger of the two men, J, is drawn to the boy's blood and desperately tries to resist the temptation so he doesn't kill him. This gets a bit complicated, though, as the boy (Ace) finds himself more and more attracted to J and tries to seduce him. This all leads to a shower scene with J finally sucking the teenaged Ace's blood and almost killing him. The older vampire, King, comes home in time to save the boy and explains to J that for a vampire, bloodust equals love. In other words, J is in love with Ace.
Since vampires suck blood instead of having sex, there's plenty of hot and heavy embraces with close-ups of a fang entering someone's neck.
There's also an awesome scene with King and J, where King interrupts J's pickup of a victim and pays the victim to have sex with J in front of him. Technically, a vampire can't get it up, but King's excitement in watching is obvious by his intent eyes and lengthening fangs. Rawrr!
Overall, a great book - nice art, captivating characters, and plenty of teasing that will leave you wanting volume 2 right away. A has been raised in happiness by the beautiful young men K and J. To thank them, A adores them as older brothers and grows innocently attached to them. But as A grows, J becomes colder to him with each passing day. The truth is, K and J are immortal vampires!
