I've finished reading Otomen Vol. 6 by Aya Kanno.
Product Description
R to L (Japanese Style)
Having Girly Hobbies Doesn't Make You Less Manly! Asuka's protégé Yamato has fallen in love with a girl and needs help winning her over. He pleads with Asuka to go on a practice date with him -- and play the role of the girl! Practice makes perfect, but will that be the case for Yamato?

My Review:
I really enjoy this series because it's funny and who can't resist checking out what Asuka will be cooking or sewing next!
Asuka likes girly things like reading shojo manga, making stuff animals, cooking, sewing, etc. but his mom told him a real man doesn't like stuff like that. So in public he takes a masculine role like joining the judo, karate and kendo teams.
Asuka's protege Yamato asks Asuka to pretend to be the girl on a practice date but it doesn't go as well as he hopes.
The last section Asuka meets the lead singer of a rock band which he happens to look like. They both like the same things and band (Fra Fra) and they become friends. He gives Asuka backstage passes to their next concert and then passes out because he is only pretending to sing and say stuff that he doesn't mean. Asuka dresses up as the singer and pretends to be him on stage but fans are getting suspicious because he wasn't singing a song they usually sing. Then a guy from a rival bands says he's not who he says he is and two fans start towards the stage and this mysterious guy hits them on the head. End of manga!
I can't wait to read the next issue!
We see alot of Kitori (Flower Guy) and this other guy (Makeup Guy).
5/5
Thanks Maylene from Simon and Schuster Canada for sending me this manga for review, greatly appreciated!
