Synopsis

Ryou Hatsuhi is a young man who has just secured his dream job at Takebou Commercial. His girlfriend, Minori Sawamura, has also landed her dream job but at a rival company, the BNB Corporation.

Both Ryou and Minori are educated on "corporate spies" by their respective employers: agents who seduce employees from rival companies and coax them into revealing their company's secrets and other valuable information. Takebou Commercial once fell victim to a corporate spy sent by the BNB Corporation, causing the company to go bankrupt. As a result, relationships between employees of the two companies are strictly forbidden.

Ryou and Minori are distraught, but they decide to keep their relationship a secret from their colleagues to continue working their dream jobs. However, unexpected circumstances arise, and the young couple must face various challenges to save their relationship.

I found out about this manga through reddit, I didn't know what it was so I decided to give it a go and tbh I was really drawn to it. The story revolves around two love birds who work at different companies but later find out that the companies are rivals. What makes the story interesting is despite them working at rivaling companies, they both strive to give it their all and will not let anything stand in their way. They are very earnest and care for each other's well-being.

Art: 8/10
The artstyle is pretty decent. The sex scenes were really steamy and hot ...

To begin with, this is a manga with sex scenes, so is not for every one.
The story was a little boring after a while, but the last few chapter were really a pain, I had a unconfortable feeling because the storyline, there arent many mangas that can make you feel something like that.

The manga talks about a 2 lovers that started to work in different companies that apparently are enemies, there isnt allowed to have any kind of realationship with the workers of the other company, and there' s a problem because they didn't knew the policy of the companies.

I read all the manga ...

Spoiler

VERY MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!
So just read this after busting a n*t so this might not be a very positive review for this.

I know I said to my other reviews on ecchi, erotica, and H mangas that these kinds of manga doesn't need proper stories, it's just a bonus because the main selling point of this genres are the art style which showcase the intercourse scenes, but this one presented itself as "comedy", yes there's comedy in this but they didn't put the "drama" tag on this, the first half part ... was good, it's the generic RomCom work life & minimal drama.
I get it, that the problem needs to get addressed eventually (MC & FMC main problem from the start), but they didn't need to include the other characters into the drama, by putting other characters, the author is just creating an unnecessary drama, the author could've make a little drama about them tackling the main problem, it should've been light Romantic Comedy (which it was) but if there's a drama, you start to take the story seriously so that's why even though I said to not take seriously the ecchi, erotica & H manga stories, I can't help but to take the story seriously, & when I take things seriously I don't just go on about my emotion, I think it logically.

I also didn't like how the MC didn't man up and tell the problems with the FMC, didn't man up to solve the problem later in the series when they're in the tough spot position (by him resigning most of the problems in the last part could've solve or them break-up) but maybe that's me being biased because I don't like those kinds of characters.

I also didn't like that each chapter, there's an intercourse scene, the author didn't need to put intercourse scene every chapter if he/she was really focus on telling a story, if he/she really wanted to showcase his art style and show more intercourse scene, he/she should've make an ero-manga.

You know I was about to say that only the FMC Minori is the only decent character with a lot of screentime, but after that last chapter, ohhh boy I was wrong, all of the characters with a lot of screentime are all trash, there's only one decent "main supporting" character that is Todoroki, then most of the supporting character are the best characters, like the MC's other boss, Emiri-san, she's really the best character in the series, next to Todoroki.

THOUGHTS:

You know after reading 4 Harumi Chihiro mangas, I think it's safe to say that she doesn't really know how to create a good story, Velvet kiss is a mess, intercourse is rampant there, so is pedophilia, Slow starter, a simp rebound story, Cutie lips is the only one I rated "5" to me out of all Harumi Chihiro works that I've read, In Cutie lips the strong point of that one is that it is collective stories, so other bad stories got carried by the good ones.
