Manga Review: AI Ore! Love Me!, Vol. 3 [Paperback]



I've finished "Ai Ore! Vol. 3" by Shinjo Mayu.

Product Description


Reads R to L (Japanese Style).

Mizuki is the female "prince" of her all-girls school and the lead guitarist in an all-girl rock band. Akira is the male "princess" of his all-boys school and wants to join her band. Love may be on his mind, but romance is difficult when everyone keeps mistaking Mizuki for a boy and Akira for a girl!

Blaue Rosen is bumped from a gig because Yuya wants his own band to perform instead. Mizuki and her bandmates protest, and Yuya decides he’ll let the all-girl band play — but only if he gets a date with Akira!

My Review:

It's always hilarious to see all the guys drooling, swooning and falling in love with Akira!  This volume is even funny then the previous two.  Really love the gorgeous covers for the volumes and as you can see both Mizuki and Akira are naked with pink ribbon around them.

In the first story every year the members of Blaue Rosen enjoy Christmas together with a party.  Akira decides to spend time with Mizuki but he finds the party very lame and lets everyone know it. He wants to spend time alone with Mizuka but the girls challenge him to play a game they excel at and if he wins he gets to be alone with Mizuki.  He pretends he doesn't know how to play Chess but he wins and then he proceeds to win at Poker, Poetry Card Game and finally Pool.  The girls give him the keys to the second floor bedrooms and he takes Mizuki upstairs.  Then they start talking and then suddenly Akira kisses Mizuki and fastens a necklace on her neck and says, "I Love You!"  Mizuki is stunned at first and then very happy that Akira gave her a Christmas present.  Akira asks Muziki how she feels about him but she buggles it up and he's hurt.  He leaves and Mizuki feels terrible.

In the second story Blaue Rosen are bumped from their gig because Yuya a rival gig wants his own group to perform.  Both groups start arguing when Akira arrives and Yuya looks at Akira and his hearts go bump.  He corners Akira against the wall and prevents him from leaving by placing his hand on the wall and says he will let Blaue Rosen play if Akira goes out on a date with him.  Akira agrees but Mizuki isn't very happy.  Then we see Yuya looking at his watch and saying, "she's late" and then suddenly Akira arrives in a strange outfit.  Yuya heart starts bumping again and they proceed on their date to a jewelry store where Yuya gives Akira a necklace.  He even kisses Akira and thinks something is strange and says something down there is in the way! Akira is disgusted and manages to push Yuya away and then they go to a restaurant to eat. Yuya tricks Akira and takes him to a private room where he pushes Akira to the bed and starts stripping and groping him and telling him to relax.  He puts his hands down Akira's skirt and says I know that feeling and then rips Akira's top.  He realizes Akira is a guy and they have a little chat.  Then we Akira with Mizuki and her friends talking about his date with Yuya and how it went.  Before Akira can say anything Yuya arrives with flowers and says, "he doesn't care if Akira is a guy he's fallen for him!"


5/5
