The title of the shounen-ai (boys-love) broadcast series Sukisho! (2005) comes from a phrase that means roughly "I like what I like, so there!" Sora Hashiba returns to his all-boys high school suffering from memory lapses after a fall from a fourth-story window. He takes an immediate dislike to his new roommate, Sunao Fujimori, but inside Sora and Sunao are the lovers Yuro and Ran; these alter-egos don't always appear at the same time, which produces some complicated misunderstandings. As their regular selves, Sora and Sunao have to cope with a thief disguised as Tuxedo Mask from Sailor Moon and the ghost of a boy with a crush on Sora. They're also plagued by energetic dorm captain Matsuri, who assigns them embarrassing jobs. Sukisho is an odd program, and the characters are drawn with a kind of plush-toy cuteness unlike the fey elegance of standard bishonen (beautiful boys). (Rated 16 and older: violence, brief nudity, suggested homosexuality) --Charles Solomon

I thought it was pretty cute. Kinda of immature if you want adult entertainment this is not for you, but not for little kids either its still implyed, but its more funny and warm and fuzzy. The charcters are sweet. I liked it. theres some weird moments and like what the hell is with some of the plots people running around in cos play. I wish it was a little less money, but hey i'd buy it. I'm thinking of getting the second volume when i have some spare cash. I've haven't seen much other anime though to compare it too. Although I've read alot of cute mangas. :) anyways just watch it.

It's not the best, and is really light, but it's fun, and good characters, though they need more development. the show's pace is very slow.

Sukisyo (i like what i like, so there) is about two boys named Sora and Sunao. Sora fell out of a window and lost his childhood memories. Sunao gets mad because sora doesnt remember him. They both have alternate persons inside them. Yoru is inside of Sora and Ran is inside Sunao. complicated, yes.. but adicting to watch!
WOW! February 3, 2006

To keep it short an succient... This is my favorite yaoi and almost my favorite anime of all time. The stories are silly, fun and have a wonderful feeling about thing. Though definitely gay, they make you think that even the most inane of circumstances can be special.

That's what I'd say to anyone who complained about any minor flaws with Sukisho itself. It's a lot of fun-pretty boys running around being cute, good voice acting, boy-love scenes, innuendo, and a little angsty plot so the fluff doesn't get annoying. If you aren't bothered by shonen-ai (boy's love), then you're probably going to like Sukisho. There is a lot left unexplained, as the plot unravels slowly throughout all 12 episodes, but it's rather intriging, while you try to figure out exactly what's going on with Sora's memory, or how Yoru and Ran came into the picture, or what happened years ago...
The DVD itself is fairly good in terms of extras (music videos with the character's image songs, and a sort of live radio drama with the seiyuu (voice actors) for Sora (the main character, the blue haired boy on the cover for anyone who's unfamilar with this, or is buying for someone else) and Sei (a minor, but extremely adorable character). The only thing I'm not too crazy about is the subtitles. They seem to translate the dialouge well enough, but there are little things that they leave out, such as the fact that Sunao (pink haired boy on the cover)calls Matsuri 'Matsuri-chan' (the subtitles ignore the suffix) and Matsuri calls Sunao 'Nao-kun'. Also, the school nurse is referred to as 'Nanami-chan' by Sora, but this is ignored as well.
I recommend this DVD, and Sukisho in general. You'll have fun.
