“See those lips, touch them, taste them. A fetish-fueled love story between Shin, a college student with a serious lip fetish, and Ruisawa, his naturally beautiful upperclassman!”

J Publishing, Virgin Red official book description

Synopsis

Shin Kumagai is a college student with a strong fascination with lips. After being dumped by his high school girlfriend for being too persistent with kissing, he decides to hide his unusual fetish and stay away from romance.

Then he meets Ruisawa, a handsome upperclassman one year ahead of him at university. Even through a face mask, Shin can’t take his eyes off Ruisawa’s beautiful lips. From the moment they meet, he becomes intensely attracted to them.

Caught between his desire to touch those lips and his growing romantic feelings, Shin slowly finds himself getting closer to Ruisawa. A sweet and slightly fetishy BL romance that begins with a college student falling head over heels for his senior’s lips

My Thoughts

I’d been curious about this one forever, so I finally got around to reading it. The cover makes it look like it’s gonna be super intense and spicy, but surprisingly, the two of them are actually pretty wholesome and chill. 😂

And the whole story is centered around a “lip fetish.” Since that’s literally the theme, the way the lips are drawn is SO damn good. They’re ridiculously sensual. 👄

First of all, the senpai (uke) is sooo fucking sly. LOL. He figures out that Shin is hiding his lip fetish, AND THEN he deliberately lets Shin touch him. Like… excuse me??? He even takes Shin somewhere private and goes, “Aren’t you gonna touch them?” 😭

They’re not even dating yet. THIS is what he’s doing. A popular guy is truly terrifying.

And from there, things get pretty damn spicy. 👀

At one point, the two of them have a little misunderstanding and end up drifting apart for a bit. But we also get to see some unexpected sides of the usually-smiling, laid-back senpai, plus some seriously cute things he says. I was eating it UP.

And yeah, if you’ve noticed something by now… I’ve basically only been talking about the senpai. 😂

Of course, I LOVE Shin too. He’s got that whole gap moe thing going on. He looks like that, but normally he’s kind of a pathetic little loser sometimes, and then when things get serious, suddenly his wild side comes out?? THAT GAP. I’m deceased. Absolutely delicious.

We were FED well.🙏
