Love it

I love all of the Hot Gimmick books. I can't wait till they come out on dvds

Enslave thy neighbor...part 5....

When Shinogu confesses his feelings to Hatsumi she misunderstands his affection for normal brother and sisterly love, but Ryoki hears it and becomes insanely jealous of this. Hatsumi decides to give Ryoki a chance and asks him out to see a movie, but her brother's sudden move out of the apartment keeps her preoccupied and this causes the date to break up early. Hatsumi decides to talk to Shinogu and heads to his apartment, but she meets up with Ryoki quite unexpectedly and he decides to go with her to find out the truth about Shinogu once and for all. Even after Shinogu admits he's not Hatsumi's real brother she doesn't accept it. Shinogu decides to take matters into his own hands and confronts Azusa with the truth about his father and Azusa's mother and they decide to have a sit down with Mr. Narita when he comes back to town. Some drunken revelry on Akane's and Subaru's part also adds to the confusion about the nature of their relationship... and a consensual kiss from Hatsumi has Ryoki reeling... The drama is just getting to be too much in this fantastic series. As the story progresses more and more I am starting to like Ryoki. At first I thought he was an utter jerk, but as more of his feelings for Hatsumi is revealed he becomes a bit more sympathetic, as I am sure is the point. Likewise, as more of Azusa's intentions were revealed he became more repellent. (I still can't believe Hatsumi would even entertain the notion of speaking to him after what he did to her, rather, what he tried to do to her). Shinogu is, of course, becoming more prevalent in the range of romantic possibilities, but honestly, even though they have the whole D/S thing going on, I hope Hatsumi stays with Ryoki. I think she can help ease his heart, provided he is willing to let his open up to her.

The MOST exciting volume!

Volume 5 Hot Gimmick has got to be the most exciting volume!! This volume is a MUST READ! In this volume we're getting more clues about Hatsumi's family secret when Shinogu moves out. Discover why & how bad boy Ryoki gets more & more lovable in each volume! Hatsumi could barely control her feelings around Ryoki these days but after Azusa, Hatsumi is very cautious! What's Ryoki's true intention, is he doing this to convince Hatsumi to be a slave? Readers will be proud & be surprised by Hatsumi's action in this volume! she finally expressed herself, stand up for her feelings! That's a HUGE progress for our Hatsumi since volume 1!! I love this volume the best because the romance from each character pair is budding! It's so entertaining to see how Hatsumi, Akane, Ryoki & the gang deal with their emotions, it's something that we all can relate to. We could also see each character's growth & maturity, how somehow they all effect each other!! Also the drama seems to escalate within each volume leaves you wanting MORE! MORE! Hot Gimmick is deffinitely one of the BEST & most exciting shoujo!

Highly recommended

Hot Gimmick, since the moment I read the first chapter, has become a favorite for me. Miki Aihara knows her shoujo, and delivers it in a fresh and heart-stirring way.Meet Hatsumi, a normal teenager in a normal family, an older brother, and two younger siblings, a sister and brother. There's the boss' son(Ryoki), a bully, who doesn't understand his own feelings, and the gorgeous(yum!) childhood friend(Azusa), which Hatsumi hopes will become MORE than a friend. But fate is not always so kind, especially since Hatsumi becomes Ryoki's slave while she tries to help her sister. She then she discovers that her knight in shining armor may not really be there to save her and that life can't get more confusing than this... or can it?I recommend this to all shoujo fans. It has messages of bullies, love, revenge, and innocence, that everyone must learn to ever grow up. Hopefully by reading this manga, you'll learn something about your life, and yourself.
