looking forward to the film! AI ORE was one of the handful of shoujo manga that i liked enough to read until the end.

So, they're making a whole series based on one lone arc?

"androgynous girl, feminine boy"


I just don't get shoujo manga......do girls like guys that act like girls???

and do they prefer to see a girl who doesn't even know she's a girl???

THANK GOD, I stay clear of any and all shoujo manga...

Yes (sankaku, nsfw)
New research suggests women from healthier countries prefer feminine men whilst those in deathtrap nations incline towards manly men.

Researchers say they found a pronounced correlation between levels of healthcare and a preference for effete men, with a nation considered to have the “best” healthcare, Sweden, having 68% of its women prefer men with more feminine faces.

I haven't read Ai Ore but it sounds ridiculously cliche. But meh, who knows, maybe she wrote it in an original way.

...um, hentai sites might not be the best place to be getting your science news. That said, I have read about this study before so this probably isn't the best example.

well, Akira is very manly, the only problem is that he's shorter than Mizuki and has a face that looked like a girl, considering Akira's brothers are tall, strong and handsome, and i love the 3rd son (Akira's 3rd older brother) he only made an appearance trice or maybe 4 times, but i love him best, so I hope that that brother will be the most good looking of them all....

i'm also interested on finding out who'll play Ban (Ran) & Ginji (Rui), ahaha, I call them that coz no matter where I look, they really look like Ban & Ginji of Get Backers...

No it's a movie. A movie that got green lit in July and will be in theaters by December... We're talking at most 5 months from start to premiere. Not that it'll need a bunch of special effects or anything, but most TV shows have a longer turn around time than that.

What are you talking about? The story and others on the site look very legit. Such in-depth articles as "Big Breasted Women More Intelligent" and "48% of Women Prefer Clothed Sex" Laughing

This...a point of the series is the two main characters identify very much with their biological gender. Akira is very much a male with a rather dominant personality...it's fun to watch him.
