Hey, Class President! Volume 2 – Kaori Monchi – Yaoi Manga Review
Wow… what a long one, 223 pages! Well, volume two picks up where we left off with Chiga and Kokusai and gets more into these two developing feelings for each other. Kokusai matures a bit more sexually to the point where he can actually figure out when he’s being molested by strangers (oh dear). Not to mention how he’s basically turned into a horny slut in this volume (yay!). Certainly makes for some hot reading.
Plot wise, you know… there’s really not a lot going on, in my opinion. I don’t think this one is as entertaining or as funny as volume one. Don’t get me wrong, it’s funny but more in the way of chuckling and not flat out laughing like I did during volume one. There are some shady characters still lingering in volume two but nothing further happens with the mysterious pervert that was running around in the first volume. He’s still out there and it seems he’s going to make an appearance at some point but when is still a mystery. I think this volume just didn’t have the drama it needed and what it did provide was pretty weak. I would almost say this was more of a smut filler in the series. For something as long as 223 pages, the story isn’t much farther along than when it started, if you ask me.
Sex wise, we’re doing pretty darn good. These boys can’t keep their hands off of one another and their chosen locations to do it in are one thing that I did find to be pretty fun and unique. From diners, to alleys, to hospital rooms, to you name it. If you want a smutty title, this is definitely it.
I did find that this volume suffers from the same problem I found in volume one and that is that either the translation is flawed or the way the speech bubbles are done is. There were many spots that either just didn’t make sense or I found I was getting lost in. Illustration wise, it is on par with volume one. Kaori Monchi has a very sketchy way of illustrating her characters but I find I like it and it still makes for some sexy reading.
Overall, if you loved volume one I would still say pick up volume two because this is a continuing series and I do think it is worth it. If you are looking for a really entertaining plot you may be disappointed but this is yaoi and for that it is pretty typical. If you want some really dirty smut, look no further. I think this one will make you very happy.
