Manga Review: Star Collector Vol. 2, by Sophie Schönhammer and Anna B.

Hey there, pornies!

I hope you are feeling great today, because I sure am! I just read Star Collector Vol. 2, by Sophie Schönhammer and Anna B, and guess what? I need that kind of romance in my life!

The story hasn't changed that much, but there are real character and story development in this second volume. The scenes felt real although they were so charged with sweetness and cuteness. There was a healthy dose of reality in the chapters that made them all the more interesting.

I admit I expected a bit more drama because of how things seemed to be, thought that maybe there was a darker side of this character (I'm not saying which one!) that could cause such an insecurity, but it also teaches us that some times we see big problems where there is actually nothing to worry about. The same goes for the infamous coming-out topic. We may expect something, but they could turn out to be something entirely different, as reflected in this volume. This came to be a more balanced book because of that.

Sophie Schönhammer and Anna B. proved again how a good due they are, how their ideas match one another and that you can trust them when it comes to yaoi and gay romance in general. Although I'm sad Star Collector Vol. 2 was the final one in this story, I'm eager to read something else from these girls! I've only read this series so far, but I know they are a promising duo. Keep an eye to see what they come up with next!

The art, again, was incredible. This time it was more emotional than in the first volume, and the creators used classical panels and images with their own twists on them, such as having an almost pornographic scene but that also kept the sweetness that marks this story. They never let the tone change either in the script or in the art, and that's important if you ask me.

Again, stop waisting your time and grab a copy of Star Collector Vol. 2. 
You will not regret it at all. Romance, kink, drama, a bit of comedy and realism to make you daydream and remember that love still exists (despite cupid's a jerk now and then, mind you.)

Kinky regards, K!
