Having mostly dark gritty (depressing!) manga in my collection I'd thought I'd branch out and try something different and saw Sundome in my local bookstore. It wrapped up so couldn't preview it, mature series...has to be up my street!!
After reading the first volume (just finished the 3rd) the first word that came into my mind was - PAINFUL. Not in the sense it was a bad read, but due to the feeling I felt for the main character Hideo. His relationship with Kurumi is so fascinating to read, and to see how the guy started off in volume to what kind of guy he has become in just 3 volumes was entertaining to read. I keep questioning to why Kurumi behaves the way she does towards to Hideo, is it because she does like him, or is it because she is a sadist? And that's what keeps me hooked as you want to see how their relationship pans out and develops.
The book actually made me laugh out loud which is very rare. The supporting characters crease me up, but again its great to see their development too.
Is it perverted? yes! is it entertaining? hell yes! is it worth the read - if you don't mind the blatant fan service - although not as bad say Battle Vixens, then give this a go, you'll either like it or hate from volume 1 alone. If you dont like masturbation (?!?) then avoid this manga like the plague! Just got volume 4 so I'll post that review up soon.
