(^///^) yeah I’m looking forward to the new adaptation too. The only regret is that the original seiyuu for Iason has passed away :( Well, if the OVA does well, maybe there’ll be a second season like Junjou… Let’s hope for the best ^^ Thanks for the info about the novels. I’ll watch out for them hehe

The novel was partially adapted into a two-episode anime original video animation (OVA) by Anime International Company (AIC), with the first episode released in August 1992, and the second in May 1994. In November 1993, an audio drama entitled Erogenous Dark was released focusing on a time period left unexplored in the original novels.

A new thirteen episode anime OVA adaptation, also from AIC, is scheduled to begin releasing in Japan in 2009.

And I wish here that the 13 OVA eps will explore more like the novels did.

The novel is licensed for an English language release in North America by Digital Manga Publishing which is publishing the novel across six volume series, with the first released in November 2007.

I have in my shelves the 1-5 volumes. 6 is still in preorder mode.

This is the CLASSIC – i love Ai no Kusabi’s venture of Master and Pet

Iason and Riki are two very opposite individuals – its like their destiny to meet and fell in love…

Just like Zetsuai – oh man! That manga made me cry!!!

One of the best classic in BL World ^^

Hehehe thanks XD

Yea you do have a point. Indeed, too much of a good thing may make it not as enjoyable and some things are better left to the imagination? :3 I find the pacing of the anime pretty good. The sex scenes were tantalising and very well-drawn and voice-acted. Seki-san… THE POWER! He even voice-acted the little details during the sex scenes *nosebleeds… and nosebleeds… and nosebleeds…* And Shiozawa-san… *grrr* *heart-thumping* so HOT. X3

*nods* And Zetsuai too… they are one of the pioneering works… woah~ the angst :D I loved Izumi and Koji… However, the plot became quite convoluted and it kinda lost me somewhere during the middle of Bronze. But I’ll probably do a post on Zetsuai on a good writing day heh~

*fell down on knees and chant) hopefully your package arrived safely^^

The lack of sexual scenes somehow makes it interesting for me…
The glorious presence of several hot-voiced seiyuu also put me in happy tears.
also this is the thing tht influenced many modern BL stories.
