Awsome and So polite September 28, 2009 Anthony Hughes (PA USA) This book was awesome. it had everything from sweet and fluffy to a little hard yaoi. other than one story about ken-do that was really creepy this was a great book.
Hilarious January 31, 2009 Doesn'tmatter 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Even if it wasn't all meant to be, this was so funny. The story with spirit names, or whatever they were, was too funny. The quality wasn't very good but the laugh was.
Interesting! (3.5 stars) August 18, 2008 Ran-chan (California, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Since there are so many artists, it's a great opportunity to see who you like and who you don't. Although my good vs. okay tally chart was 9 to 10, the good ones are worthwhile. No matter what your style, there's probably something you'll like in J-Boy. Thanks to this, I found some artists that I really love and am looking for their works. This is especially good for starting out yaoi fans who want a sample of most types of yaoi. Despite some of the filler stories, the good ones are worth the buy.
First half great, second half, not so much January 20, 2008 lore (Neverwhere) The first half of this book is a fun, interesting read. But the second half descends into almost uninterpretable joke and cat-boy stories. In fact, the very first story is so hot and charming that it sets the bar too high for the rest of the volume to reach.
But I do agree that for the price, you won't be able to sample a wider range of yaoi stories. I don't regret the purchase.
A great bargain! March 22, 2007 R.Parklane (Tokyo, Japan) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
At $11.50 and over 300 pages, this collection is certainly a great bargain. Ranging from light BL to some kinky sex and soft Yaois, I find most of the stories pretty enjoyable. And such a wide variety too - nipples fetish, love through a portrait, childhood friends finding love in a small town amidst sadness, a wimpy president and his ghostbuster knight, lonely men with their cats pets, 2 butler brothers finding love, rabbits, a sexy one on 2 "dojos" struggling for dominance, tension release in an all boys boarding school, a training diary on the wizard and his apprentice from a cat clan. There are also some short stories from the better known DMP releases like "Our Kingdom", "Clan of Nakagamike" and "Kurashina Sensei's Passion", which gives one the chance to sample these mangakas' works.
There are a few which I wish for more like the touchingly sweet one on a lonely man with his cat pet in a house by a small lake surrounded by a forest.., the butler brothers' romance, the 2 childhood friends turn lovers and the bizzare diary of the wizard and his cat-boy apprentice.
As I am quite a "sap", I find this overall a good read.
