Lenni Reviews: Flutter
/
Flutter (Yaoi Manga) by Momoko Tenzen
**This title contains adult content**
Aren’t you glad Lenni has
brought you some more man-lovin? Yeah, you know you are.
Unlike the last yaoi manga I
reviewed for you guys, Flutter is a light hearted boy meets boy story. The
couple Masahiro Asada
and Ryosuke Mizuki end up working on the same project together after Asada has
been watching the enigmatic Mizuki from a far for a long time. Asada can’t hide
his feelings forth a damn so of course there’s attraction between them.
As yaoi goes, the plot is pretty
standard; boy meets boy, boy has attraction to boy, one boy has a secret past
to work through while the other is so woefully earnest, you just wanna smush
him. This is not to say it isn’t a fun or enjoyable read. Flutter is a very
sweet story; drawn and written beautifully. The art isn’t as explicit as some
other yaoi I’ve read but if you know your male anatomy – and I know you do –
you get the picture. The intimate scenes are handled with a certain amount of
elegance and digression while still being sensual, so if you like your smut
implied rather than very explicit, you’ll be happy here.
I am such a sucker for a cute
love story that doesn’t get overly sappy. And I’m always happy to see some more
yaoi being published in the US. If you pick up Flutter for a light, fun read
that will tug gently at your heart strings, you won’t be disappointed.
