Koisuru Boukun OVA Hot

This story revolves around Morinaga who is in love with his straight, homophobic sempai. Besides the first chapter, the plot is more realistic as far as interactions between characters go. I found the sempai to be a more relatable character that has problems dealing with his emotions and coming to terms with his own feelings for Morinaga. The complexity of Morinaga and sempai gives an interesting read and a unique, yet bumpy, love story. It's a love story where the reader almost cringes and bites their nails as they watch it unfold.
The backgrounds of both the characters are unique and quite different from one another. You clearly see why Morinaga has a falling out with his family and envies sempai's closeness with his. The depth is good and well-thought out. Both characters have unique flaws that cause their relationship to falter at times.
The art is done nicely. Morigana is, of course, my favorite character to look at. There are funny parts in the storyline as well.
Overall, I’d recommend this manga for anyone who is looking for a longer read about an unrequited, angsty love with some heart-wrenching moments.

As far as the characters and their personalities go, I like them both. Morinaga is adorably helpless in his love for Tatsumi, and he just can't stop even though Tatsumi makes a huge deal about being against homosexuality. Working in a lab with a guy you're head-over-heels in love with would be a bit difficult, I imagine, and even moreso when the object of affections has no interest in anyone of your gender, much less just you.

That said, when their 'relationship' finally does start, I'm not fond of how it's treated. Being taken advantage of, no matter the circumstances, is inexcusable and Tatsumi has every right to be furious. However, I was glad to see that Tatsumi is not quick to forgive Morinaga.

This OVA has the classic 'love-after-rape' concept that is so popular in yaoi, and I know it's just a trope that the genre will never get away from, but it just seems less like love and more like unhealthy attachment when that's the way the relationship starts.

The art is still beautiful though, and it's not a wholly bad story, so I'm giving it three stars. My personal bias is getting in the way, so someone not bothered by the trope might get more enjoyment out of it than me.

I've found the sex scene of the first OAV, not intentionally searching for it, I didn't know this series. I have watched, I admit I liked it. Erotic but not pornographic, and with a reluctant charming boy that seems to be not actually so reluctant in the end, with his cute partner.
I've searched for more and I was finally able to see the complete OAV.
Knowing about the second OAV, and about the manga, I had to look for both. The OAV are good themselves, but you need to read the manga to really appreciate them.
I'll try to explain it better.

We know that Morinaga Tetsuhiro is in love with his senpai Tatsumi Souichi for more than four years, and it's told in a very short scene just as a prologue: Morinaga told Tatsumi senpai he loves him, but he had no reaction from him. We came back to present, when Morinaga is given a strange bottle by his friend Hiroto at the gay bar who wants to help him to conquer the love of his senpai Tatsumi. This bottle contains an aphodisiac medicine: Morinaga doesn't want to accept it, but in the end he carries the bottle at home and hides it into a closet.
But Tatsumi senpai hates homosexuality since his beloved younger brother Tomoe went to the States to live with his partner Kurogawa Mitsugu. And moreover Tatsumi got some advances from a teacher he trusted.
Tatsumi is not kind at all with Morinaga, almost treating him as a servant and repeating that he hates homo at any chance. But Morinaga is actually his only friend and they work together in the laboratory of the university they attend together.
One evening happens that Tatsumi senpai stops at Morinaga's apartment to drink beer with him. Tatsumi smokes and drinks a lot till the beer ends. Morinaga goes out to buy more beer and cigarettes for him. But Tatsumi senpai cannot wait and he check in every corner of the apartment to look for something to drink. And he finds *that* bottle!
When Morinaga comes back, he realizes that Tatsumi drank the aphrodisiac and they end to have sex even if Tatsumi is very reclutant and he says he'd never forgive Morinaga. But Morinaga wants to catch the chance at any cost.
That's the plot of the first OAV.

This could seem a simple and silly plot, if we only see the first OAV. But reading the manga, we know it's only a prologue. The story is actually very well done in my opinion, and I don't refer only at sex scenes, that are not so many, and never fall down into vulgarity, since they are explicit but never pornographic. Kiss scenes are also very deep and erotic, and we see more of them rather than complete sex scenes. But this manga is not only sex and romance.
Little by little, we learn to know the personality of both the caracters, and we see how hard is to understand each other, and how hard is to be honest with ourselves and with the other ones. It also happens in the real life, we know, and it's a very serious theme that could let anyone to think how hard any relation could be.
Sooichi says he hates homos, but he cares a lot for Tetsuhiro, and it's more evident in extreme situations. And, even if it's quite rare, we see he actually doesn't hate to have intimacy with him. He has to learn to be honest with himself.
Tetsuhiro loves Tatsumi but he usually lies to him, or he hides him some important things and events of his life. It also happens that Sooichi tells him how special he is but he doesn't trust him and keeps asking even if he knows how hard is for Souichi to expose his feelings. He has to learn to be true with the one he loves and understand his feelings.
Moreover, Souichi has a family full of love for each other, and his lovely little sister Kanako he loves a lot, but because of him having a hard and cold character, he has no friends; while Testsuhiro, being a kind and nice boy, has lots of friend, but he has a shady side in his past and a family that doesn't know love. Even his elder brother Kunihiro and his best friend Masaki Junya are involved with his shady past.
Sooichi seems cold and violent but he could be actually shy and he submits himself to Morinaga's desire (that's also his own desire?). Tetsuhiro is sweet and gentle but his smile hides a deep sadness.
I don't explained it well, but my advice is to read the manga and enjoy the plot and the evolution of the relationship, that happens little by little.
And don't we forget there's also lots of comedy, and scenes that are really, really funny. Seriously, I laughed a lot at some scenes, and felt moved by the sadness and the deepness of some other scenes.

The two OAV only cover the first volume of the manga, so the plot is just at the beginning, but we can start to know the feelings of Morinaga and Tatsumi senpai and how their relationship starts.
The character design is good and it keeps a fine quality for all the duration of both the episodes. I personally prefer the style of the manga that's made with softer drawings, but the anime is good too. Colours are fine too, not too bright nor too dark. Animation is fine too.

I also appreciated that both the boys are students at university, so there are not adult men and young kids. I prefer two boys rather than a man and a cry-baby, but it's only my personal taste.

"Koi suru bookun" is related to another manga by the same mangaka, some short stories collected under the title of "Challengers" where the main characters are Tatsumi Tomoe (Souichi's younger brother) and Kurogawa Mitsugu, when they first met and start their relationship. In "Challengers" we also meet Souichi and Kurogawa's friend Isogai that also appears in "Koi suru boukun". This story is settled before Souichi met Tetsuhiro.

Now I am reading the manga, and when I found out there was an anime to this it was very much to my surprise. However I wasn't let down, this anime is as great as smexy as the manga is, and I am grateful to all that have contributed to searching this anime with us all.

It is definitely not a let down, and of course it definitely touches the hearts of viewers when they see the character development and also the plot development. Of course everyone knows there's a happy ending, as there always is one, however the anticipation lies in wait for how everything goes through in this anime. Definitely it surprises everyone and gets a few laughs too with the outcome of the second episode.

However there to be more to watch in the future.

I liked this one.

I thought it was funny, cute yet smexy at the same time. I hadn't read the series before, so I watched the OVA first, went back and read the first volume, and then came back and watched it again.

I must say it's a pretty faithful representation of the first two chapters of the story. It feels like it's been pulled directly from the pages of the manga, with countless identical scenes that are brought to life through the magic of animation.

Like the summary says, this is one of those stories where a gay guy likes a straight guy and suffers from the pangs of unrequited love. However, the characters are far too interesting to simply write it off like that. Morinaga has been holding onto this crush for 5 years, and though it seems pretty pure, there's no denying that he's a guy with desires (and not of the "let's hold hands and walk in the sunset" kind). To make matters worse, he works in a lab daily with the object of his affection! The abusive homophobe Tatsumi is a fun character, and very convincing as the reluctant uke. I shouldn't even say reluctant. He's pissed as hell to be quite honest ("I'll make you regret ever being born,") and doesn't lose any of his manliness even during...*ahem*...but the escapades between the two are a lot of fun to watch. Both of these guys are idiotic in an incredibly endearing way.

The way the OVA ends feels a bit awkward. I found myself thinking, "That's it?" But then I realized that chronicling the upcoming events would be better served in a second OVA.

As for the smex, some of y'all will likely be disappointed. Though the original manga wasn't that explicit to begin with, the OVA shows nothing--everything's either blocked by a leg or conveniently just out of the view of the camera (I'm looking at *you,* thrusting fingers). Don't get me wrong, it's hot for sure, but it definitely could have been a bit more...liberal, per se.

The art is smooth and gorgeous, the more "serious" scenes particularly lovely. This story is pretty high on humor so expect some different art styles in here. All in all, well worth the watch, even if you haven't read the manga yet.
