The game is on! MBI has sealed off Shintou Teito and initiated the second phase of the Sekirei Project!As the Sekirei prepare to battle it out to leave just one standing, the pressure is on for those Sekirei who haven't yet been winged to find their Ashikabi. But what if a Sekirei wants nothing to do with her Ashikabi? Such is the case for Tsukiumi, and she's come up with the perfect solution -- why not just kill him??Is there room in Minato's harem for one more?
Circle(s): efini Part of the MELT DOWN circle with Reku Fuyunagi.
She writes most of her BL and shotacon manga under the pen name "Ashika Sakura", and writes tame BL and mainstream stories under Sakurako Gokurakuin.
She is most known as the original creator of "Sensitive Pornograph" and "Sekirei", which are now both anime. She seems to be authoring mostly male-oriented work than yaoi these days.
When she presents herself in the afterwords of her comics, she tends to be very shy, embarassed and modest when she writes them, which some fans find humorous because her manga can get very sexual and outrageous.
Gokurakuin is a huge fan of singer, Akina Nakamori.
Sekirei, by Sakurako Gokurakuin, translated by Caleb D Cook, lettering by Phil Christie. “An Ashikabi’s power is proportional to the number of Sekirei they’ve winged and the depth of their bonds with them. No matter how much of a failure he looks like on the outside, he’s already got five Sekirei.” A Manga graphic novel. Minato is a rounin, a failed student supposed to be cramming for a re-sit. He becomes involved with Sekirei, girls with special powers, enormous breasts and tight panties. They’re fighting in a game that will see the survivor win. If they fall for Minato he becomes their Ashikabi and they are strengthened. Bouts of fighting are interspersed with romantic and humorous interludes. Romance is thick in the air. The characters are represented as teenagers and they are the target audience. Readers are invited to think of themselves as Ashikabi. To say it is a young man’s dream to have lots of voluptuous girls attracted to him is stating the obvious. The world of manga was unfamiliar. I found it hard to understand at first because of the shifting narrative and relationships. I decided that it’s not for me.
Now, four Sekirei for Minato? Looks like it's... STOP! HAREM TIME! LOL... yeah this is really fun. I'm really enjoying reading this. Beautiful women, exciting battles, plus mystery & intrigue! One thing's for sure - Minato is gonna need a bigger bed! Ah, such fun. What a lucky fellow. He's surrounded by a bevy of beauties, to be sure. Things are really heating up, too. Other Sekirei are actively searching for our friends. Be wary, everyone!
I would consider this one a little slow at this point. Minato's harem getting bigger is about the only major change here. This volume shows you what all happened with his sister and her Sekirei though. Oh my gosh is Shiina almost as adorable as Kusano! I guess that kinda fits since they consider themselves siblings though...
Hoping to see some more action in the next volume.
