Preliminary Spoiler Jul 15, 2020 This manga is really good at portraying human relationships in my opinion, and the character development is superb. The protagonist going from a wimp to an absolute chad, but i love how the relationships aren't too unrealistic and the manga really doesn't take it self too seriously. The way the protagonist is girly and looks like a girl really adds a cool dynamic with the girls and the strategies he uses in order to 'steal their hearts' . All in all a super fun read, would recommend for any romance fans who don't mind the censored sex scenes. its finger lickin good Story 9

Enjoyment 10 -HaremTrash May 23, 2013 Recommended Preliminary (79/360 chp) Minamoto-Kun Monogatari is an adaptation of Tale of Genji. I actually have read ToG and really enjoyed it. This is pretty similar. Modernizes it into a college boy's life. The book would fit under Comedy, Ecchi, Harem, Romance, Seinen. Story - 9: It's not super original, but it is captivating. I won't lie I read to the first 50 chapters within like an hour. I think the story can somewhat connect to some people and how they're struggling with different relationships. Minamoto himself experiments with different women from different backgrounds. I think a lot of people can relate which makes this story good. Art - 10: I ... May 9, 2012 Recommended Preliminary (Unknown/360 chp) Minamoto-kun Monogatari is basically a modern day manga version of the old classic novel Genji Monogatari (The Tale of Genji) which was written in the early years of the 11th century (the Heian period). I don't know the full details but Genji Monogatari is basically about a man named Hikaru Genji and his love life, he is man who had good-looks and was a playboy who apparently had 14 lovers in his life. Your probably wondering why im telling you this. Well these facts play a huge part in this manga's storyline and will help you to understand it. Story 9/10 The story focuses on Minamoto ... Jan 3, 2015 Recommended Preliminary (150/360 chp) Minamoto-kun Monogatari is the manga version of The Tale of Genji: a classic of work of Japanese literature about a playboy who hooked up with 14 (?) women in his lifetime. Each woman being different in personality. Story: 8 The story basically follows a guy who decides to follow his aunt's desire for him to hook up with 14 different women and see how it all plays out in the end. In it for him, is the chance to become more of a man. He has a face so pretty, even guys fall for him, and out jealousy, he's been bullied by girls his whole life. ... Nov 25, 2011 Recommended Preliminary (10/360 chp) Story : 7
Art : 8
Character : 7
Enjoyment : 8
Overall : 8 Since the manga only has very few chapters out,i can't really see where the story is going to go. But what i can say is that this manga is a joy to read,but as warniefn stated before,it is not for kids,as it involves a bit of incest and a lot of fan service (With probably more to come). The story itself is pretty unique,and it makes you wonder if he gets to bang all those chicks without something happening. The art style is also clean and nicely drawn. I can't really say much for the ... Nov 2, 2020 Note ~ For all the people who are concerned about the manga's length, it isn't actually that long. There are indeed more than 350 chapters, but all of the chapters are fairly short. Most of them can be read within only 5 minutes each. At least I did. Life isn't all easy for college student Terumi Minamoto. Imagine being a boy so pretty that strangers usually mistake you for a girl. Being that pretty must benefit Terumi a lot, right? That doesn't seem to be the case with him, though, as he is left severely scarred from his traumatic experiences caused by his middle school female ... Oct 18, 2011 Recommended Preliminary (Unknown/360 chp) TO be fair , I am writing this more as a heads up notification more than a detailed review. This manga is obviously not for children,both in content and form.That said,It does have the makings of a really good ecchi comedy , with plenty of laughs as well. It does tell the story (even if its not an original one ) well. MY question is only where they go from here and how they develop the story.That will be the decider if it deserves a higher or lower ... May 18, 2021 tl;dr: An incredibly well written and illustrated manga about a series of relationships and the character arcs surrounding them, though one that feels unfinished. This manga is heavily based on the work of literature Genji no Monogatari (The Tale of Genji) which is a story written in early 11th century Japan that as far as I understand it is quite well renowned. I haven’t read it and I don’t believe that reading it is necessary for reading this manga, but I think a quick scan through the wikipedia page will definitely help. Genji no Monogatari is centered around the chronicle of fourteen relationships that a man ... Aug 13, 2013 Recommended Preliminary (89/360 chp) This is one of the greatest stories I've read in a long time. At first I thought it was going to be some kind of weird love triangle, but I was wrong and the story pulled me in deep. The only problem is each chapter is 9-13 pages, but 26 pages worth is put into 9-13 pages. This is something to reread and put with your all time favorite mangas. Jun 3, 2016 Mixed Feelings Preliminary (69/360 chp) (WARNING) This review will be heavy on spoilers so STOP right here if you don't want no spoilers. Minamoto-kun Monogatari is a manga written and drawn by Inaba, Minori and its based off the classic work of Japanese literature, The Tale of Genji. Okay I was introduced to this manga randomly through Mangahere, at first I thought it was gonna be another perverted smut manga. But after reading some chapters and doing some research on it of whats its based off I got really into it, also the main female is the type im really into. Then my interest starting to decline drastically after ... Sep 4, 2020 The story revolves Terumi Minamoto, a girly looking boy who suffered bullying and determined to change, until university life began and took a huge twist. He meets his aunt Kaoruko Fujiwara, a professor at Shiun University specializing in the Tale of Genji, Japan's prime novel of the Heian Period. Kaoruko plans to use Terumi as a guinea pig for the research. Fourteen women of differing calibers enter the door, and Terumi has to win their hearts, in differing, erotic, and often challenging ways. This also challenges his fear of women. This manga's story can be summarized as "The Tale of Genji, in symbolism and execution: erotic." The ... Aug 9, 2012 Recommended Preliminary (32/360 chp) Although the story may be odd, it is actually very enjoyable. The main story is about an Aunt who uses her Nephew to recreate an old story of a man who falls in love (and sexually conquers) 14 Women.
Most of the incest comes in when the Aunt wants to get her Nephew used to a womens body, and allows him to---ehem, you can read that yourself. It's not hentai, but it is strong ecchi. The story is intresting because the Nephew is so very selfconscious. So, this experience helps the Nephew to grow, as a person. This might sound strange, but it really is ... Jun 20, 2014 Recommended Preliminary (128/360 chp) Minamoto-kun Monogatari, also known Minamoto's Story, is not your typical ecchi harem. This series is a sienen, which means it targets a more mature audience. This means it isn't afraid to border (or even cross) the line when it comes to subjects such as sex and nudity. In my opinion it is one of the better harem mangas out there, and definitely worth a read. Although, if you do not like seeing incest in manga, this series is not for you. As there is definitely some incest in this series. Keep in mind I'm very generous when giving scores. Story: 9/10. The story is said ... Feb 4, 2018 Recommended Preliminary (162/360 chp) *Note* This is a review summing up what reading Minamoto-kun Monogatari feels like regardless of its origins. First of all, you'd have to read this looking for romance and borderline ecchi while being open to quite a few number of "preferences". Reading Minamoto-kun Monogatari has been quite a blast for me, I kind of loved it really. Forr romance, I very much preferred and wanted the one girl wins over the Harem ending and I could say this manga provided me that; yet it also did not. Yes, I'm contradicting myself but hear me ... Nov 28, 2016 Mixed Feelings Preliminary (92/360 chp) Meet Minamoto. An 18 year old college student with the mental capacity of a horny 12 year old. Just to be clear, I'm going to try and cover both sides of the spectrum in my review (giving some ups and downs). When starting off reading the story I was intrigued by how it managed to introduce the main character in a clean and organized manner. It has its moment of comedy as well as backstory that hooks the reader right off the bat. From the introduction I was interested in how the genophobic teenager (Minamoto) would develop as the story went on. And let me ... Jan 23, 2022 Surprisingly very Wholesome and Comfy reading, i don't read a lot of Erotica but this got me holding my breath, it doesn't require cheap spices to prolong the story. It ends where it should be, and that's just how i prefer it. Story are overall good, basing itself on classic literatures, noting some of the common psychological issues, but still entertaining. The Artworks are just beautiful, The Artists deserves more praises for their creation. However, I do wish for few more chapters for more rewarding closure. what can i say, for i am greedy. Edit: upon rereading this manga, as i have been awaken, i demand better ... Dec 20, 2013 Recommended Preliminary (107/360 chp) Wow my first word for this manga. For mangaka to been able to this much with first published work, i am really amazed. I am really into details, and this one have really much to offer. Even though chapters are pretty short (8pages after 1st), composition of story is so good that often looks like it is much longer. Also one must understand that all drawing, writing, background is done by this one and only mangaka. Lot of fun servis. Plot is often unpredictable, only if u are familiar with tales of prince Genji u can get hint of what will happen. This is modern ... Mar 5, 2022 Story:
It is a modern take on the age-old novel Genji Monogatari. For the most part, it is very realistic be it the characters or the relationship between them. One of the most realistic manga is when the protagonist actually gets to have sex with the female characters and that too multiple times. Even though this manga has only 9-10 pages each chapter, it has enough detail that it will feel like you are reading a normal 20-page manga.
The only thing that I had a problem with is that the ending is a bit unsatisfying for me. Art:
The art is simply outstanding. I don't know what others ... |
