2.5 really -- I don't know what to think of this manga. On the one hand I like the characters and their dynamics. I love the slow burn romance, as Ryo and Dee develop feelings for each other. Race is not handled in the best way, with Dee bluntly confronting a number of characters about their ethnicity. This may be the fault of translation. What really bothers me, though, are the issues of consent. While it is clear that both Ryo and Dee [male police detectives] are attracted to each other, DeeThis is an illustrated story that reads back to front about two young male officers recently partnered up who are painfully attracted to each other. Dee is out and doesn't care who knows it (though he claims he's "bi") while Ryo is much more innocent and confused by his feelings. With Dee in the lead, he creates some cute, sexy, comical situations and steals a kiss from Ryo whenever and wherever he can. The two must fight drug lords and deal with young delinquents. The dialogue between Dee &
I remember watching the quirky private detective comedy "Moonlighting" growing up. I didn't like the starring duo that much, but their quirky, sexually charged interaction as well as the completely tongue-in-cheek storylines really worked as a kid. The show was also smarter than it at first glance appeared.The reason I'm babbling on about an 80's TV-series in this review is that "Fake" is essentially the very same thing. A serious detective gets paired up with a reckless one, the unlikely duo
Rounding up from what would be a perfect 2.5 - it's a very cute, light read with some instantly likable characters and incredibly silly sexual tension, but there are a few incredibly contrived moments of getting Dee to kiss Ryo that made me roll my eyes a lot harder than expected. But hey, the art's nice, it's funny, and I'm sure I'll get a bigger kick out of it later on.
This was one of the very first manga series I read as a whole a few years back, and my love for it hasn't altered much. Before this, I was stuck obsessing over yaoi fanfiction for normally straight characters, so imagine my surprise when I stumbled across the actual thing, for characters fully intended to be gay! I adored every second, and hunted down the whole set, sometimes paying way too much but knowing it would be worth it in the end.So they're cops, and you get to see heaps of gore and
My first yaoi! Aww. Here are my thoughts, which Im sure you are dying to hear. ;-)Iliked it? But didnt love it? I mean, its very cute, but its sowell, immature. Theres an aside from the author at one point where she says, Well, this is really a girls comic, anyway andyeah. Thats the problem for me. Its clearly written with teen girls in mind, and while I must say that Japanese teen girls are TOTALLY AWESOME if this is what they like, I think Ive outgrown it. Ryo and Dee, the two protagonists,
At first I thought this was pretty dumb, with the ridiculously hot and young detectives doing a terrible job of police work (never following procedure, yelling at their chief, ranting about everything they're asked to do) and the slapstick drug dealers and the racist humorous-sidekick brown street kid that Ryo lets move in with him and -- And then as I was formulating this to myself, I realized it was a parody of that sort of American odd couple cop action comedy movie, with some cute guys
