Summary
Adaptation of Fumi Yoshinaga’s manga (the English licensed title is Antique Bakery)
Tachibana, grandson of a rich businessman and newbie in the world of managing; Ono Yuusuke, famous pastry chef and even more infamous “devilish homosexual”; Kanda Eiji, a retired young boxer with a thing for pastries; Kobayakawa Chikage, servant friend of Tachibana and current romantic interest of Ono, who is clumsy yet serious and stoic to a fault (most of the time). Together, these four men maintain a small yet elegant cafe known as “Antique”, where they and all their customers can come together to cherish one of the few but truly important things in life: cake. (ANN)
Thoughts
Calawain: Mmmmm, yaoi. Sorry, got enough of that in Code Geass, where it’s not even explicit. Plus, it doesn’t even have a really funny acronym like ANAL (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-01-28/all-nippon-air-line-manga-offered-with-two-covers).
itsubun: All yours, Impz.
Riex: Judging by Impz’s comments on Ikkitousen, I’m sure he’ll be falling over himself to get to this one. As for me, BL = hell no.
Shokkeru: No thanks.
Briar: Not a fan of BL (despite having blogged Junjou Romantica for a couple episodes). Unless it has something other than plotless plots and needless angst, I’m not going to watch it, much less blog it. Not to mention the character design. *shudder* It’s so… old school…
Extrange: Why the hell there is always a BL anime each season but no Yuri??? WHERE’S MY YURI ANIME? Viewing Potential: 3/5 if you are a seme, 5/5 if you are a uke.
Crusader: I prefer to be able to actual eat a cake than watch people make one. Pass.
