Tokiko may have begun the process of turning Kazuki STRAIGHT, but can she really hope to erase all those years of HARD GAY in the space of an episode? Under normal circumstances, she might have had a chance, but with Papillon and Victor around, it seems as if her attempts may be futile… “You’re turning [...]

I need to take a moment to discuss this figure of Eri. It’s not a figure I like, and I wouldn’t have given it a second thought had ANN not written a surprisingly positive review about it. Am I the only one who dislikes this figure? It doesn’t capture the essence of Eri for me [...]

Despite Tokiko’s repeated efforts to turn him BI, Kazuki cannot help but be swayed by good old HARD GAY- and now she has had enough. Can she get Kazuki to forsake HARD GAY completely and turn STRAIGHT for her sake, or will HARD GAY keep getting in the way of their love?

Whilst Kazuki and Bravo both decide to sample Hiwatari’s unique form of RAGING HARD-ON, Victor realises that mere humans cannot satisfy him anymore, and decides to become the first man to [...]

After all the oblique references to real life, interviews and the like, it turned out that my application to a research degree that I thought was a sure thing turned out to have been rejected. Oh well, this must be what they call a ‘character building’ experience. Now off to learn about teamwork and problem [...]
