This is a cute story! I have to say, I wasn’t expecting Minota’s slicked-back hairstyle and unusual outfits - I can only imagine what they’d look like in color lol. Kazushi is smooth, sexy, and cute while Haru is soft and the epitomy of a bottom!

Kissing is cute love story with more of the love and less of the spice. (That does make sense since it was published in 2003.) I think it’s sweet. Nowadays, it seems like spicy yaoi manga is super popular. Honestly, I prefer the relationships.

The colored dust jacket cover on the copy I have is beautiful too! I also like the cover underneath - one of those ‘do I take the dust jacket off or keep it on’ situations. And the art style is do nice to look at!
