I love this volume so much because it shows both Asahi and Mitsuki’s weaker sides and flaws and how despite all of that， at the end of the day， they still choose to be with each other and wouldn't have it any other way。I cannot stress enough how amazing the art is in this graphic novel; the attention to detail is amazing。 While I can’t comment on the authenticity or legitimacy of the culture presented in the graphic novel， I believe the author did a great job representing the countries they visi I love this volume so much because it shows both Asahi and Mitsuki’s weaker sides and flaws and how despite all of that， at the end of the day， they still choose to be with each other and wouldn't have it any other way。I cannot stress enough how amazing the art is in this graphic novel; the attention to detail is amazing。 While I can’t comment on the authenticity or legitimacy of the culture presented in the graphic novel， I believe the author did a great job representing the countries they visited in a good light。 。。。more

These two are so freakin' cute！ And I'm once again left drooling at how good the food is！The guys continue their trip around the world meeting great people and eating up a storm of delicious dishes that are now added to my dream list。 I'm impressed at how organically their interactions develop and the varied obstacles placed in their way because it makes for such a different read from chapter to chapter。 They're not just breezing through one gorgeous locale after another， they're meeting people These two are so freakin' cute！ And I'm once again left drooling at how good the food is！The guys continue their trip around the world meeting great people and eating up a storm of delicious dishes that are now added to my dream list。 I'm impressed at how organically their interactions develop and the varied obstacles placed in their way because it makes for such a different read from chapter to chapter。 They're not just breezing through one gorgeous locale after another， they're meeting people that are helping them figure themselves and their relationship out。 It's straight-up delightful。 The art gets somewhat wonky at times， but it fits the story's personality。 Sorai also excels at expressions， everything from extreme happiness to worry to anger， and everything in between is perfectly expressed in one single brilliantly-executed panel after another。 I can't wait to follow along with the next volumes of this travel guide。 Very happy thanks to NetGalley， TOKYOPOP， and LOVE x LOVE for the lovely early read！ 。。。more

Thank you Netgalley for the eARC！ So I remember I had some mixed feelings about this manga in Vol。 1， but I’m glad I kept reading this series because this volume was so much better。 Characters were more established and Mitsuki and Asahi’s relationship was more solid and loveable。 They still have their moments worrying about each other and trying to protect the other from their personal pain， but they are just so much more loveable in this volume。 The adventures they go on were so fun to read abo Thank you Netgalley for the eARC！ So I remember I had some mixed feelings about this manga in Vol。 1， but I’m glad I kept reading this series because this volume was so much better。 Characters were more established and Mitsuki and Asahi’s relationship was more solid and loveable。 They still have their moments worrying about each other and trying to protect the other from their personal pain， but they are just so much more loveable in this volume。 The adventures they go on were so fun to read about and there’s lots of places I want to visit now。 All the food they eat in each country looks amazing so you won’t want to read this if you’re hungry。 The pasta in Italy looked 😍 I like how they all met people along the way who teach them new things or get them to realize certain things about their own relationship。 I was getting teary-eyed at the end of this volume because it was so sweet。 If you started this series and weren’t really feeling it， I highly recommend you stick with it because it gets so much better。 。。。more

I just love this series。 The art makes you feel like you're there with the boys， traveling through these various countries and makes your mouth water with envy at the food！ Asahi and Mitsuki continue to get closer and there are several adorable moments shared between them in this volume。 I don't have much to say other than it gave me such warm feelings and I think everyone should read this series！ I just love this series。 The art makes you feel like you're there with the boys， traveling through these various countries and makes your mouth water with envy at the food！ Asahi and Mitsuki continue to get closer and there are several adorable moments shared between them in this volume。 I don't have much to say other than it gave me such warm feelings and I think everyone should read this series！ 。。。more

（I got a copy of this volume @ Netgalley！）Volume 2 was just as good as the first one， so it was really pleasant to read more of Mitsuki and Asahi's trip around the world。 This volume includes Germany， France and Italy， and the art is still just as beautiful （enough to make me try all the new dishes introduced in each place they visit lol）There's a bit more about their past （before the trip started） and a bit more about each of their families， as well as some development of their relationship。 I' （I got a copy of this volume @ Netgalley！）Volume 2 was just as good as the first one， so it was really pleasant to read more of Mitsuki and Asahi's trip around the world。 This volume includes Germany， France and Italy， and the art is still just as beautiful （enough to make me try all the new dishes introduced in each place they visit lol）There's a bit more about their past （before the trip started） and a bit more about each of their families， as well as some development of their relationship。 I'm very glad they keep meeting nice people that give them their full support instead of creating unecessary drama。 It's refreshing to read something like this， with so much depth and care put into， and I'll probably continue to read it， and whatever else Mone Sorai publishes。 。。。more

I absolutely loved everything about this book。 We get to know our couple better and see the world through their travels。 I loved learning of new places and the foods。 I enjoyed discovering new people through them from different places and cultures。 Most ofI all though I love following their relationship。 We are shown the ups and downs for them personally as a couple as well as the issues in todays world as a gay couple。 I love being brought along on their journey。 I cant wait to read more！ 5 sta I absolutely loved everything about this book。 We get to know our couple better and see the world through their travels。 I loved learning of new places and the foods。 I enjoyed discovering new people through them from different places and cultures。 Most ofI all though I love following their relationship。 We are shown the ups and downs for them personally as a couple as well as the issues in todays world as a gay couple。 I love being brought along on their journey。 I cant wait to read more！ 5 stars！ 。。。more

In the second volume of this series we continue to follow Asahi and Mitsuki as they continue their travels around the world。 I really love the main characters relationship， it's very realistic and I think it's done really well。 I'm not a huge fan of established relationships because often their relationships boring after they get together。 This definitely isn't the case with these two and I enjoyed seeing them learn more about each other。 The characters are fun and interesting to read about。 I l In the second volume of this series we continue to follow Asahi and Mitsuki as they continue their travels around the world。 I really love the main characters relationship， it's very realistic and I think it's done really well。 I'm not a huge fan of established relationships because often their relationships boring after they get together。 This definitely isn't the case with these two and I enjoyed seeing them learn more about each other。 The characters are fun and interesting to read about。 I love both of the MCs and we get to see many different side characters as well。 Most of them are also lgbt and usually provide one of the main characters some advice or lesson。 This does feel a little unrealistic but I didn't mind。 The art is wonderful and really matches the story in a way。 It's a pretty unique style and resonated with me when I read the first volume。 Overall， this is honestly such a sweet read with wonderful art and realistic lgbt+ representation that I definitely recommend！ I'm impatiently waiting for the next volume。 Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for my honest review。 。。。more

The relationship between Asahi and Mitsuki is put to the test as they travel around the world。 Can their affection for one another stand the test of time？ We have to keep reading to find out。 I’m enjoying this story so far。 The relationship depicted between Asahi and Mitsuki feels firmly rooted in reality， even if their whirlwind adventure is a little too good to be true。 Mitsuki is a character who seems sure of himself; he knows who he is and knows what he wants but maybe a little naive。 Asahi The relationship between Asahi and Mitsuki is put to the test as they travel around the world。 Can their affection for one another stand the test of time？ We have to keep reading to find out。 I’m enjoying this story so far。 The relationship depicted between Asahi and Mitsuki feels firmly rooted in reality， even if their whirlwind adventure is a little too good to be true。 Mitsuki is a character who seems sure of himself; he knows who he is and knows what he wants but maybe a little naive。 Asahi on the other hand is more reserved and is often anxious。 The narrative also implies that he has some internalized homophobia that he’s working through。 This makes for an interesting read as both men take in advice from the people they meet on their travels and explore different sides of their relationship。 This allows both of them to work through their differences and their own inner demons in order to grow as individuals and as a couple。 I appreciate the realism of that ongoing struggle and am looking forward to where this narrative is headed。 The realism sets it apart from other works in its genre， as this isn't a story that is just about cute boys for the audience to squeal about but instead depicts a relationship that could easily exist in real life。Side Note: The art is also epic。 。。。more

While I like the general story and the main couple， it often feels more like a "tour guide" book。 Too much description， detailing food， how it's made， the history of the landmarks they visit。 Too often， the couple take a back seat to the sightseeing。They seem to， conveniently， meet every gay couple going， every time they visit a new country， and somehow always end up lucky to meet nice people who are overly kind to them。 It's all too coincidental and convenient， with the gay couples imparting li While I like the general story and the main couple， it often feels more like a "tour guide" book。 Too much description， detailing food， how it's made， the history of the landmarks they visit。 Too often， the couple take a back seat to the sightseeing。They seem to， conveniently， meet every gay couple going， every time they visit a new country， and somehow always end up lucky to meet nice people who are overly kind to them。 It's all too coincidental and convenient， with the gay couples imparting life lessons and wisdom， in every country。I wish it would spend more time on the couple and their story than the detailed tour of various countries。 I want to know what really happened to Asahi， how long they've been dating， and why they're discovering HUGE things about each other on this trip that they never knew before。 Why are they planning to get married， if they don't already know these things about each other？ 。。。more
