Absolute Boyfriend: Manga Review

Okay...so yeah. You're probably thinking what I was thinking when I first saw this cover. But one day when I wanted some brain candy, I decided to read it. Now, while it does have plenty of of brain melt elements, I was pleasantly surprised that the story turned out to be a lot more nuanced than I initially gave it credit. One character wasn't developed as much as I thought she should have been. I don't even recall her name, only that she was obsessed with money. But overall, event though it was a weird as any manga, it was one of those that was based in enough reality to understand. This short series, while comical and bizarre, explores the true nature of love--how people are sometimes in love with love, and how others can teach us to love. Despite the use of blatant sex appeal, at its core it was very sweet.
