If I touch you, I can hear your inside words.

Last night I was looking for something to read and I came across another manga written by Honna Wakou, who wrote one of the best mangas I have ever read "Nozoki Ana". She is writing about Romance and Drama in all her mangas and I love how freaky and well packaged is everything. Everytime I finish one of her works I feel empty and I want more. This time the plot is that the girl "Satori" can read other people's mind and desires when she touches people but when she is love with someone that person start to gain this power too. It's still another rollercoaster of emotions, butit's a pleasant one Somehow an ending that I was expecting but it didn't affect that much. Everything ended with the conclusion that you don't realize how important is someone to you until they are not around anymore.

Easily Honna Wakou's worst series and that's not because a) it doesn't focus on an adult cast and b) it lacks the spicy tandem between high-tension drama and alluring smut prevalent in her works. No, it's just that 'Fureru to Kikoeru' is too slow-paced, too toothless, and too abrupt in its ending. It doesn't flesh out its characters that much, it drags out the conflict to an irritating repetitiveness across chapters, and its side cast is non-existent to boring-as-fuck. To top it off, its culmination is anti-climactic and overall weak. The only good thing is the premise, as it ties into Honna-sensei's love for the supernaturalblended with romance. This trademark approach of hers is better explored in her other series, however. We've got a supposedly fluffy and slightly dramatic romcom that tastes like cardboard and could be emulated by pretty much any other mangaka. Everything could have been explored and constructed so much better. Yes, even in this more neutered side to Honna-sensei's works (who usually focuses on a steamier approach to plot building, characterization, and drama buildup). Fans of romcoms and more cautious romances might take a liking to the glacial pacing and circular storytelling. There's just enough of a nudging to character progression if we take the usual sluggish romcoms as a benchmark. This might be an entry more befitting for people who want to steer away from Honna-sensei's reliance on sexual violence and light-to-heavy NTR depending on the series. If you want to explore Honna Wakou's true strengths, however, look elsewhere. Aside from the popular 'Nozoki Ana', 'Kaikan Douki' is a good showcase of what she does well in her controversial, yet captivating style. Even the mediocre 'HadaCamera' is better. 4/10
