Spotlight Series: Junjou Romantica
Hello one and hello all!
Lin here and after one long month I have to say,
I am somewhat dissatisfied...
Why, you ask?
Well, I have been looking foreward to several fall
animes and I just have to say I was expecting a
little more out of them... stare
Currently I am watching...
aww screw it, just click my signature...
Anyway, back to the main topic...
ahem...
blaugh heart JUNJOU ROMANTICA! heart blaugh
Okay peoples,
those who have a dislike to shounen-ai or yaoi
you might want to leave...
or not...
Anyway, this series is based upon the yaoi manga
by: Shungiku Nakamura
Well I'm usually one who really couldn't care less about
the guy on guy love thing with the whole
sleeping with each other after ONE FRIGGIN MEETING!!
((Even though this also happens in several heterosexual animes too but...)) sweatdrop
Anywho, when I watched the first episode I found
myself dying and I mean dying of
blaugh xd laughter. xd blaugh
Not even within a minute, I started to chuckle.
But wait there's more.
This series not only has its share of comedy but it also
has the romance aspect to it.
I'm not going to get into it since...
*ahem*...
So, this story has a total of 3 couples;
to which all of their stories are connected to each other.
Our first couple being: the Misaki and Usagi-san pair
heart aka Junjou Romantica heart
So this pair is the primary couple of the series and
it started out as a Student-tutor relationship, in which the
tutor (Usagi-san) had a crush on Misaki's older brother. Usagi-san
is an author of both novels and boy love novels
and Misaki is a student in college (well a high school student
at the beginning).
Well long story short, Usagi-san got his heart broken,
Misaki cried for him,
Usagi-san realized he loves Misaki,
and Boom here we are at the stage of lovers...Woo! blaugh
Personally I like this couple I find myself laughing the
hardest with them.
Well that's all for me! blaugh
Back to you Neutral Lin!

sweatdrop Eheheheheh.... sweatdrop
Well that's the first couple,
the second being: Hiroki and Nowaki pair
redface 3nodding aka: Junjou Egoist 3nodding redface
Well looks like I'm presenting this pair.
Well this pair started out with Hiroki having a one-sided
love with Usagi-san and finds himself
depressed about this but as people would call "fate",
he meets Nowaki when "fate" literally "falls from the sky".
((No he's not an alien you freaks...he's an orphan))
SO well first this relationship starts off as a tutor and student
thing like junjou romantica except Nowaki is actually very smart...
Hiroki is a professor that teaches at Misaki's college in
the literature department
and Nowaki is a college student who wants to become a doctor (see
he's brilliant).
So the rundown of the start of the couple is
Nowaki cofesses his love to Hiroki,
Hiroki denies his love (since he still thinks he's in love with Usagi),
then Hiroki gets jealous when he sees Nowaki surrounded by girls,
then after some talking and drama,
bam we have our lovely Junjou Egoist pair.
Well this couple in particular has the most drama in it
out of the three in my opinion but other than that...
That's pretty much it...
They have a good story though...

Wow...
And so that brings us to our last couple: You and Shinobu
scream sweatdrop aka Junjou Terroist sweatdrop scream
I'll be presenting this one.
So this couple is between You's ex-wife's younger brother and You.
Well this one starts off pretty bumpy but none the less funny.
You is actually Hiroki's superior at the university and is the professor of the Literature department.
While Shinobu is a high school senior (well at the beginning) who fell in love with You due to "destiny",
and thus wants You to "take responsibility".
So they first met on the day of You's marriage when he saved Shinobu
from a couple of thugs and the two of them rushed to the
ceremony without any knowlegde of who each other was.
SO what happened after You's divorce.
Shinobu comes back from studying abroad in Australia to
confess his love to You and tells him to "take responsibility";
You thinks he's insaine (partially because You belives himself to
ONLY be attracted to women);
after some rough situations,
Shinobu decides to leave and go back to study abroad,
You finds out and rushes to the airport
for a reason he doesn't even know of,
You tells him to stay,
and thus the couple's story begins...
---
Well I personally love this series and am over joyed
to see that the second season came out.
I hope to see what happens to these "lmao" couples xd
Lin's rating is a 9.9/10! blaugh wink
Well I'll see you guys in December!
blaugh Ciao! heart
