by Akabeko

Leo is host at a nightclub, and he always thought he had no interest in men — until he slept with Takahiro, a sex worker who introduced him to pleasures he'd never felt before. Now, sex with women doesn’t satisfy him, and after begging Takahiro to sleep with him again, they agree to a “friends with benefits” arrangement.But just when Leo thinks he may be falling in love, one of his best customers asks him to sleep with her. Takahiro catches him in the act, and things take a dark turn…

Meh. Two Stars.

YES HE'S STRAIGHT. THE STRAIGHTEST SCOLIOSIS.

[Ester · Rating 4 out of 5]

Era necesario este flashback para conocer cómo comenzó a cimentarse la relación entre Leo y Takahiro, así como para conocer mejor al propio Takahiro. Me ha gustado estar todo el tomo en su mente y poder saber cómo se va enamorando locamente de Leo.

Takahiro and Reo have a transactional relationship, but they move in together to facilitate their arrangement. The structure is a little confusing, but the story’s been getting good!

Given Mitsuka’s confusing structure, I’d recommend reading them back-to-back in this order: Volume 3, 1, 2.

This is a PWP, but it’s confusing the first time you read it. Volume 1 throws you into the action with little to no explanation, Vol. 2 has the plot’s development, and Vol. 3 is pre-Vol. 1 context.

Overall thoughts
Mitsuka is for a specific audience given its trope. Misunderstandings and miscommunication are a huge part of the story. Although the plot isn’t the strongest point, it’s still interesting. It shines in the spicy scenes, and as a PWP, it does its primary selling point justice. Despite its caveats, the art is beautiful, and the spice is done well. Just be prepared to have patience with the plot.

Who is this manga for
I’d recommend this to manga fans who don’t mind a complicated story. Misunderstandings and miscommunication are essential to the plot, so fans of the tropes, or patient tropes will likely enjoy this PWP with a plot.

O sea, estuvo ok. Leí los 3 primeros volúmenes que son los que cuentan con traducción. No diría que es de mis lecturas o sagas favoritas. No. La realidad es que solo es una lectura para pasar el rato.

Nunca he sido fanática de los temas de escort y este lo quería leer ya que lo alababan mucho como historia erotica. Pero, sinceramente, si no siento una conexión emocional entre los personajes no me sirve de nada.

La historia de Leo y Takahiro si bien para el segundo tomo es agradable y linda, eso no quita como inició, y la verdad prefiero olvidar como empezaron esos dos. Es bastante cuestionable. Y creo que de ley hay que leer “Raka” sino es imposible de entender el primer capitulo de Mitsuka.

Bueno no estoy ansiosa por leer la continuación (volumen 4) pero ahí veré que opino cuando la lea.

No entiendo por qué este tomo no es el 1. Me hubiera venido genial para entender cómo empezó su relación y disfrutar más del después.

Creo que este es el que más me ha gustado de los tres, sin haberme encantado. Conocemos mejor el punto de vista del jefe y cómo empezó a sentir cosas por Leo que en los otros tomos ya están ahí.

Aún así siguen sin contarme su primera vez. Yo no sé si es que está en el tomo del que sale esta historia, pero si vas a hacer un manga nuevo sobre una pareja nueva aunque se los haya mencionado ya y no cuentas su primera vez en esta nueva historia, no lo pongas como número 1, o advierteme que tengo que leer el otro antes para entenderlo.

Ya no tengo más así que aunque sigan sacando no creo que lea más.

Una seqüela innecessària i que es nota afegida amb calçador per explicar-nos el passat del Takahiro i com es va anar enamorant del Mareo malgrat les reticències d'estar amb un noi hetero per una mala experiència del passat. Entretinguda, però massa forçada, no acaba de lligar amb el final del darrer volum :/

?? I'm so lost. why is this vol. 3? this would've been a waaaaay better vol. 1. it's all backstory. which would've been a way nicer set up than whatever was the crazy start of vol. 1. like I enjoyed this one the most thus far cuz the story is forming and the set up is there. where the first one felt all over the place and had 0 story direction.
definitely my favorite so far.

A trip to the beginning!

I enjoyed this back story of how they got together. The graphics and storytelling were once again spot on and very entertaining! Can’t wait for the next one!

[Dayamarali Espinosa · Rating 4 out of 5]

Reading this on Hoopla App, now that I complete vol 3 of the series, It has me a little confused because this backstory seems to be vol 1 but it is put on vol 3. I wonder if this Vol 3 is the first backstory there? I am still in between 3.5 or 4 stars.

[Camron Winger · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was hilarious. I loved the deeper focus on the bottoms career choices and how that was messing up the relationship. The comments in this one seemed to be more focused on fun and that was something I needed to be reading at the time so I appreciated that.

takahiro's pov

[DonutKnow · Rating 5 out of 5]

I like seeing it from Takahiro’s perspective but I thought they’d go a bit deeper than just the earlier parts of their relationship- still it was interesting to see! 😍❤️
