Akaiito ga Tsunagaru Anata to Kiss ga Shitai.

Mod Edit: This review was originally posted for Ore no Sekai no Chuushin (65463) and has subsequently been merged into Akaiito ga Tsunagaru Anata to Kiss ga Shitai. (140276). The Center of My World is a roller-coaster of emotion with the tracks set to full throttle and the ride being quite a fulfilling one. This manga really knows how to bring about a cute, immersible, and carefully crafted atmosphere that most hentai artists tend to lack when developing their scenarios. I really appreciate the protagonist to such a great degree for the way he pushes for sexual intercourse. He was very honest and very open aboutit, as a normal high school student should be, and yet he still manages to show a great deal of consideration to his partner while doing so. My god, why can't more protagonists be this straightforward... There was a certain sense of uncertainty in me that had little hope for how Honoka would react to Ken's proposal for sex, but not only did she pull through splendidly, she exceeded all my expectations. It's so overly clear how much love these two have for each other, it's reflected to a great degree in the way they have sex and even in the dialogue. Ken showers her in affectionate admiration and displays a great deal of sincerity in his words and actions. It's this kind of thing that I'd expect to see in an ideal, mainstream romance title. And then we have Honoka, who makes some of the cutest blush faces ever, and I can really feel the emotions coming off her during the time that she has sex with Ken in how she responds to everything he says. She's a highly endearing heroine. The sex in this manga does more than what most hentai works usually accomplish, it offers romantic development during intercourse. Fantastic way to set for an exhilarating hentai scenario! Granted, it's not particularly difficult to build on a sex scenario where the heroine of the story is a childhood friend, but, at the very least, it does try to avoid any tired tropes that normally follow this sort of theme and it does a very good job of avoiding an awkward setup. The transition phase into the intercourse scene was handled very smoothly and very earnestly. The Center of My World is drawn with so much thought and care put into the panels. The art does a lot to further enrich the already wonderful themes in this title. This manga likes to put a lot of emphasis on Honoka being cute, and the drawings are angled in a way that compliments the cuteness that her character has to offer. Thankfully, this manga does steer clear of the tired and repetitious style of art that you see in various other works and it provides for a very fresh and unique presentation on how the sex scenes are drawn. And even the character designs aren't bad. Granted, their not at all unique, but they're a cut above the usual when comparing to the majority of hentai manga works. But the greatest attributes of the manga's art is in its angles and form. Shoot, if a hentai manga is enjoyable to the point to where I'd put it on par with a regular manga, it must be doing something remarkable. I would still be hesitant to recommend this to a non-hentai reader since there are still plenty of other romance works out there that can be just as satisfying as this, but I'd suggest this to any hentai lover in a heartbeat. If you're looking for a little more happiness in your hentai fix, this is definitely something you won't want to pass.
