Brief Summary:
Caution: This book does contains mild (and at some points hard-ish) Bondage and Sado-masichism parts, with animal eared-boys ... If you're not into that sort of thing ... You've been warned XD ... But it's nothing grotesque at all, I promise! Even if you don't normally like that sort of thing, I still recommend this book, it's really cute, I just have to say this cautionary statement so no one gets mad at me :P
Alas, this anthology has finally been finished. It's only 43 pages but I'm using the word 'only' sarcastically XD ... It took a while, I'm not going to lie, but I'm thankful I have such wonderful teammates that were so helpful when I needed them. School is a pain in the butt too when your trying to translate a long book.
The most important thing to mention about this book is the reason why ... why did I choose this book? It's simple, my dear friend Azin's birthday just passed, and I chose to do this book translation for him. I was trying to get it done around the time of his actual birthday but that didn't happen. I'm sorry for that buddy! But ... HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY AZIN-KUN!!!!
Okay, now that's outta the way, now on to the content of the book;
Kashimada Shiki is one of my favorite shota artists, I remember when I first read a translation of his work "Shizukuchan Armada Conspiracy" which was translated by Whitt-kun, ever since I read that story, I have fallen in love with this artist's work. Kashimada is an artist that can draw both realistically while maintaining a strong degree of manga/doujinshi art styles. What I mean by this, is that his work, especially in the eyes, is unique and descriptive. Every character and work I've seen by him has such extensive detail, that, to me, is something that really stands out. He is a talented artist, if you haven't seen much of his work, hopefully this will enlighten you a bit as the book I mentioned above has done for me.
Yoshida Chie is an artist I didn't know of before this anthology, but omg is his work cute! You'll really like it, he has a story in the book titled "Are you my pet?" and it's about a boy whose baby-sitting a josou (cross-dressing) bunny boy and he becomes very well aquainted with this pet ;)
This anthology focuses around the theme of "Semi-Agressive Mimi-kko" to quote the artists directly. What the heck does that mean? Well it means that there is an animal ear theme with light BDSM undertones, but I dunno if it's exactly light nor if it's an undertone, it just sounds good. XD
So, in summation, the main story of this Anthology is based on Little Red Riding Hood, with a cute animal-ear/bondage shota theme, there are other stories such as the one by Yoshida Chie and some awesome illustration pages too. This book is just wonderful, it was a pleasure to work on and I really hope you guys enjoy it!
For now everyone take care!
