Plot Summaries:

Seikimatsu Darling tells of the humourous romantic life of three couples. Ogata and Takasugi are salarymen working for different corporations (and both are seme-wannabes); Tsutsumi and Shikibu are high school teachers; Kouhei and Takeru (the only couple known by their given names) are a playboy and a high school student, respectively, whose selfish personalities clash frequently. Virginity, social mores, and old high school rivals serve as catalysts in a very funny, very romantic love story! - reviewed by Katchan

Remarks:

Used to be published by Biblos Comics. - reviewed by Katchan

I don't see 'sophisticated' in the descriptions of semes and ukes (it's what I'd use to describe Takasugi!). Was it left out deliberately? And -- do 'teachers' fall under 'salarymen' in 'Characters' Background'?

This is fun!! ^_^ - reviewed by Katchan
