If you're in it just for the art, you'll definitely enjoy the character designs! The animal souls were visually striking!
Then, there's the explanation of how breeding between males is possible. The theories are amusing and incredibly creative, but I was hoping for more scenes focused on pregnancy... There's a lot of talk about it, but not much is actually shown...
There are some intriguing characters, though the author introduced too many, causing the story to lose focus. One arc gets overshadowed by numerous side stories and characters, which ultimately dilutes the original narrative.
I grew tired of waiting for developments that never came and having to read about characters who felt irrelevant from the start—it's like investing effort without receiving the payoff you expect. That's why I had to stop reading the manga.
<p>
In the manga, the art style is intriguing, even if it's a bit disproportionate at times, and the story offers genuine character development. Personally, I really appreciate the art, despite it being somewhat off-putting initially.
The characters in the anime only exhibit minimal depth, especially considering this is just an OVA. In contrast, the manga provides much more insight, allowing readers to connect not only with Norio but also with all the characters surrounding him.
At times, you may even question whether the main couple truly exists.
The manga alternates between chapters that follow real-time events and others that delve into the backstories of new characters and their lovers (I found these segments particularly enjoyable, as many had highly complex relationships), enhancing the overall depth.
I must admit—this manga does include a rape scene, which I don't condone, and I grow weary when such themes dominate yaoi manga. This is likely why many people avoid the genre nowadays.
The incident occurs only once and not involving the main pairing.
Norio, the protagonist, isn't the typical uke who remains oblivious about his feelings; he openly expresses his emotions to Kunimasa and has the courage
(minor spoiler)
to tell him that he doesn't wish to be with someone who doesn't reciprocate his love.
(end of spoiler)
Kunimasa, while not the most socially aware individual and somewhat insensitive (though not abusive towards Norio), fails to meet Norio's emotional needs, prompting Norio to distance himself from his apathy.
Character development isn't limited to the main characters—it extends to all side characters as well, creating a sense of a large, interconnected family.
"Love/Sex Pistols" may deviate from conventional manga tropes, and I personally enjoy it, particularly the intricate relationships the mangaka takes time to cultivate, albeit sometimes imperfectly.
That said, the manga does incorporate some yaoi stereotypes and tropes.
Frankly, I struggle to find manga that entirely avoid these conventions nowadays.
Occasionally, the dialogue feels a bit... unusual, especially concerning the male pregnancy aspect, yet the relationships remain fairly realistic depending on the pairing. The characters grapple with authentic self-conflict and relatable issues, particularly regarding their insecurities.
If you can overlook the art style (which, honestly, I find quite appealing) and the concept of male pregnancy, and instead focus on the depth of the characters, you'll likely find the manga both engaging and relatable.
