Sensual Phrase Kaikan Phrase Vol1 Mayu Shinjo 0782009167730 Books

The entire series was unforgivably addicting. Despite being filled with everything that makes me eyeroll about shojo manga (and romance in general), I quickly scarfed through Sensual Phrase like an extra large helping of McDonald's french fries. I admit it, the seriously hot rocker bishonen men just fired my jets in a huge way. Rock n' roll. Angst. Hot bishonen men with guitars, drums and bass. Sexual tension off the charts.

Sensual Phrase is visual eye candy. Sakuya, the lead singer for the band Lucifer, is that sexy male who is beautiful to look at yet very disturbing in his behavior. In some ways he out-Christians that damned Christian Grey when it comes to out-of-bounds behavior. He's got a lot of demons within, and it often seemed that he reveled in his darkness. There were quite a few instances in which I wanted to grab him by the hair and slap some civility into him. I got it dude, you had a hard life. You got picked on for being half-Japanese with blue eyes. Your mother was an alcoholic. You were a male host. Now you're the lead singer of one of the biggest rock bands in Japan (all while still a high-schooler). Grow up already.

I will say that Yuki, the long-haired guitarist was my favourite of the group. One of the few people Sakuya actually listened to and respected. Yuki's backstory was interesting, coming from a highly-traditional Noh theater family who not only expect him to take up the trade, but to marry a girl chosen for him. Then there's Santa, the drummer who just so happens to be in love with his adopted half-sister. And Towa, the extremely pretty one who likes dressing in women's clothing--very Visual Kei that.

Aine however, was everything I despise in shojo. Maybe it's a romance thing, but I've never been interested in the cute but virginal girl who just needs the love of a handsome man to make her complete. Yawn. I don't even like that type of scenario in traditional romance novels. Aine is simply no match for the sensual and seductive Sakuya. She has no backbone, and very seldom shows any sort of autonomy. There's no growth in her character, save sexually (and even that was problematic). She was this ditzy high school girl who just so happens to write rather salacious lyrics, even though she's never been kissed and is still a virgin. She nearly gets run over by the fast-driving Sakuya and from there her rather placid high school life becomes a walk on the wild side of rock stardom.

Also, it was just a little maddening that every time Aine's more jealous peers who are huge fans of Lucifer (and of Sakuya in particular) start bullying her, here comes Sakuya to save her hide. Of course, most of the females were E-VILLE B*TCHES out to destroy Sakuya and Aine's TWU WUV. And of course, there's that annoyingly maddening trope of every red-blooded man with a fully functioning p*nis who wanted to get into Aine's virginal panties. Several instances of near-rape do occur and nearly every time, Sakuya had an obssessively jealous meltdown. Now perhaps it was her very innocence in a jaded music industry that Sakuya craved, and in that limited sense, the story worked.

In fact, most of the female characters in Sensual Phrase don't fare very well as I stated earlier. They're not treated very well, either saccharine-sweet wait-for-my-man types or stalker-hater-jealous types.

Ignoring the story, which did have some interesting parts, the artwork appealed to me. Shinjo is definitely a brilliant artist. She definitely has passion for her work. Honestly though, it's a guilty pleasure. We've all got them. Definitely a mature read in regards to subject matter.

I didn't enjoy Sensual Phrase and I won't be buying past the second edition.

I got sick of the teenagery vapid love (*gasp, gasp, how does he FEEL for me!? How shall I act around him, oh nuuuu*) I lived through that already, I didn't want it in a manga XD

The drawing is cool and the storyline is... okay. But it didn't do it for me, simply put.
I love this series. Yes, it is a bit sexual but I think it is a great story. I love the characters. They are very realistic.
this manga was one i found on the shelf one day and i loved from the first page i didn't know why it labled M until volume 2
My friend will love it for Christmas!!

the manga is slightly... eh... naughty lol but it is defiantly 18+
great story and the Anime is better from her point of view.
love it
This is my favorite manga series!!!!! ( and I have read a great share of manga!). I would say that it was probably my first true manga series, and after reading A LOT more manga, this series remained my favorite. If you are a long-time manga lover, or have just joined the world of manga, I'm AM SURE that you will LOVE this series!
I had read this series about a year and half ago and it amazed me the art and the anticipation of what will happen next after i read the series i saw the anime and i decided to buy this series and the first vol revolves around Aine and how she writes songs for Lucifer but how her feelings grow towards sakuya and the abuse she gets from jealous girls who are fans of sakuya
