 A MUST-SEE!! DEFINITELY WORTH IT!! April 14, 2008
G V (Missouri City, Texas United States)
I LOVE the premise, characters, artwork, voices, etc. It is so much fun to watch. Funny, with really engaging main characters, interesting episodes, intrigue, etc. Don't read too many reviews - the surprises are the best part! If you enjoy yaoi at all, THIS IS A MUST-SEE! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by a picky viewer! Definitely WORTH THE MONEY! There are a lot of episodes and even a fun OVA.
 Very, very funny. November 21, 2007

The premise of Sukisho is a dramatic one. Two boys, Sora and Sunao, are used as lab rats when they are children. The terrible trauma causes both to develop multiple personality disorder, and eventually they're separated. They meet again in high school but why so suddenly? What's happened to them in between their time at the lab and their return to school, and can they gain control of their darker, other selves? More importantly, can they ever escape the lab and its scientists for good?
For such a serious storyline, I was pleasantly surprised at how funny the first two thirds of the show was. Sora is a wacky, high strung and very lovable loon while Sunao balances him out with his droll insults. Adding in their best friend Matsuri who loves to play practical jokes; their underclassman Ichikawa who finds noodle-making very exciting; the school nurse Nanami who seems to have a fetish for S&M and costume play; and their alternate personalities who keep sticking poor Sora and Sunao into hilariously awkward situations made Sukisho's plot one string of bizarre misadventures. The over-the-top character designs and great dialogue only added to the humor, and I found myself laughing out loud at least several times an episode (and it's difficult to make me laugh out loud).
In the last few episodes the plot abruptly turns serious, as the issues of Sora and Sunao's alternate personalities and their shared past as test subjects are finally resolved. Personally I thought the sudden change was a bit jarring. Also, the last episode felt a bit rushed; an extra episode might have helped to clear things up more effectively.
That being said, I know many fans who found the ending both touching and exciting. Even if you're not one of them, Sukisho is worth buying for its incomparable humor and the adorable romance that blooms between Sora and Sunao. Highly recommended.

The first I watched this series, I was blowned away by the direction it took at the end. Very surprising. Totally unexpected. The boys are cute and the adults have dark mysterious secrets, a great recipe for an unusual series. The boy love is hilarious and touching. I loved it!

It's not heavy yaoi but still is AMAZING! You will squel in delight as you watch the story unfold. Plus there is a plot! What's not to love about a yaoi story with plot?!

Sukisyo! is very cute and the animation is unique, if a little bland. There is tons of fluff, and an interesting plot towards the end. A good buy!
