Well, it contain four stories with no relation within each one. Except the absurd plot that makes it all more whaaat? and cool.

The first one is about a man who eats flowers and the othrr man who falls in love with him.
I keep laughing at some of the faces the mangaka drew.
But the characters were a grest couple (a little bit force), the scenes were hilarious and so good drew.

The second let us know about a boy in school that is in love with his teammate and wants to hook up (and more), when the other guy is either way to oblivious or just to silly. But it have a few scenes with sexual agrettion to this character, so if you don't wanna read it, go after the other two stories and forgive about this one.
It was my least likely one, don't like too much the couple or the interactions.

The third story have a salary man who was rejected by his soon to be wofe and goes after the man that "stole" his soon to be wife.
At the end he kinda makes it with this man, and the trama was a true absurd comedy.

The finale one is the prequel of another manga of the author (Asa to Micha) that is not as great as the main story, but I understand that this one have two or three chapters to express too much feelings and that is kinda hard to develop.
Buut, it was an almost good introduce to the couple. And was a little bit cute.

Primer còmic de la mangaka de FANGS 1 i es tracta d'un recull de relats bastant justet, però que mostra el talent incipient de l'artista amb unes il·lustracions xulíssimes :) pel que fa a la trama de les històries curtes, són massa superficials i en el cas que m'interessava a mi el de Asa & Mitja 01 és un pèl problemàtic... veiem a la parella 6 anys després de la preqüela, ja d'adults i vivint junts, però el Mitcha no para de dir que l'Asa és slutty perquè és gai. Calia? MU MAL.

Finally picking up other works by Billy Balibally because I love fangs so much.

This is their first one and there weren't really any stories that stuck out to me. The flower one was a little strange and interesting and I vaguely liked the sports and host ones. Asa and Mitya I liked it from Asa's pov more. I didn't love Mi-chan's insinuation that because Asa was born gay he was slutty? Asa's pov made it more of a story I was interested in so hopefully the two volumes that are about them is more of that vibe.
