My Review:

Sato is the hottest guy in high school which all the girls want him but he uses Yoshida as an excuse to turn them all down.  For this reason all the girls hate Yoshida who is considered awkward, short, unattractive and scarred.  Sato loves to torment Yoshida like crazy but for some reason he loves to call him "his favorite".

This volume isn't as explicit as some of the other yaoi books I have reviewed (boy are they very explicit and I mean that in a good way) but it has alot of romantic situations which result in humorous and funny results.

3/5

Thanks Simon and Schuster Canada for sending me this yaoi manga to review, greatly appreciated!
