Pretty good! The story moved much quicker than I expected, so the pacing and build up of the relationship felt a bit weak at first, but in exchange, we got to see their relationship develop a bit after the initial confession, which I always love. Even though this is a storyline I've read many times before and I was expecting all of the major beats, I liked the characters and their dynamic enough to keep it from feeling predictable. The art was really nice too.

There is a lot to find weird about this manga, especially if smell/scent kinks aren't your thing. But there is also a lot to like, and for me, the likes out weight the weird parts. First, the art is gorgeous with a great balance between humorous and sexy shots (I personally really like how dramatic Niioka is in every panel, it gives him a ton of personality). Second, Niioka and Kagawa might just be perfect for each other and it's kinda sweet in a kinky way -- like guy who has a smell kink just so happens to meet someone with a pretty intense body odor? It's a bit strange but also really cute?? The story line overall is pretty basic, but not in a bad way, just in a 'I've seen these beats before' kind of way, but the circumstances of the whole scent kink thing to bring a fresh vibe to it. Overall, would recommend checking it out for a wild and fun read.

I am a HUGE fan of Harada's works and I have been hoping for so long that this one would get released in English!! I have never stalked the the upcoming releases page as intensely as I did with this one. Not only is it is just as good as I remember, it's even better. This translation gives Yoru much more personality than the one I remember and the whole tone of the localization fits the story and characters so well. And the ART. Flawless and as stunning as always from Harada.To anyone unfamiliar with Harada's works: heads up, she is a master at crafting a story with jaw-dropping art, complex and interesting characters, a well flowing plot, and at least one very messed up scene. So read with some caution.
