621982. Tomoi Hisatsugu went to New York to work as a doctor. But that's not all. He hopes to lead an easier life as a young homosexual than in Japan. Indeed, he meets another doctor, Richard Stein, and they become lovers. Nemureru Mori no Binan tells of their relationship in an extremely realistic way. It portrays the life of homosexuals in the early 80s very exact and conveys the mood of the secrecy gays and lesbians had to live in well. It is also a very down to earth story with characters that could meet in the street every day and doesn't use the elements so common in today's Shounen'ai-Manga. One of Akisato's very best works and highly recommended. (Source: PRISMS)
Sakami leads a very normal life (except maybe for the fact that somehow her parents switched traditional gender roles). Until she meets Daiji and his best friends Shirou and Tenkuu. At first she can't stand them one bit but gradually she becomes their friend and a member of this trio. However, each of the boys has a very unusual problem and the now starting love-triangle is going to be quite something for all of them. It wouldn't be an Akisato of course, if the main focus would be entirely on the love-triangle and so she adds a huge deal of weirdness and humor to her work as usual. Soredemo... is a great and funny read that doesn't follow any genre standards at any time and always surprises the reader... especially in the end...!
