Sommaire
Yaeshima Asako is an office lady who has a complex about her excessive sweating and works at Lilia Drop, a company that manufactures makeup and bath products that are tremendously popular with women. While sparing no expenses with deodorant in her daily routine, one day Natori Koutarou of the commodity development department tells her, "Your body odor is wonderful!

Ase to Sekken review
I haven't written a review in a while, however, a heart-warming story such as this i think deserves it.
The story follows the story of Asako, a young lady who works as a cosmetics and fragrance company. she is also is very self conscious of her excessive sweating and body odour. Its nice to see a real every day problem portrayed in a very well thought out way. The story follows her meeting and falling for the companies high flying golden boy Natori. in a chance encounter he sniffs her out (literally) as he hasn't smelled a scent like hers before. From there we are treated to a very well though out and written adult relationship. its not always happy, there are worries and anxieties in both parties and what I feel are real thoughts feelings and hang ups that every relationship has. This manga does have sex in it and some partial nudity so it is aimed at older teens adults (nothing too bad, only the stuff you'd see in a fledgling relationship). What is nice about it though is that the fan service and sexual scenes are not only tasteful but are used to highlight a moment rather than be played for laughs or cheap fan baiting and are actually part of a budding relationship. I'd say the only odd thing is the premise of Natori having a smelling fetish but this isn't too badly done. All in all it is a really lovely telling of a real adult relationship with a lot of thought put into the writing, simple anxieties and problems that a new relationship faces. its lovely to see both Asako and Natori grow as people and work their way through their misgivings, past relationships and problems. if you are unsure whether to pick this up i will give it my personal recommendation as being one of the most well written adult relationships ive read since Golden time comfy/10 |
Ase to Sekken review
Finally! A romance manga for sweaty girls like me!
It's actually really refreshing to read a manga that not only has actual romance in it, but plays with that romance in an incredibly fun and heartwarming way. The nearly tangible chemistry between our two main characters, I'm not ashamed to admit, gives me butterflies every time. This manga doesn't shy away from the "sexy" parts of exploring love, but it's never explicit or gratuitous, which is another refreshing concept to add to the list. This is one of the most realistically evolving love stories I've read in a very long time, and I can't recommend it enough to people who are tired of the "Will they? Won't they?" cocktease that manga/anime is notorious for. |
Ase to Sekken review
This manga has the cutest and most wholesome couple ever. Truly an underrated series, as this couple not only portrays one of the more realistic relationships I've read in manga, but also the most healthiest in terms of character progression and motivation.
To give a short summary, Ase to Sekken is a romance between Yaeshima Asako, an office worker who struggles with an excessive sweating problem, and Natori Koutaro, a man with a keen nose and smelling fetish, who also develops soaps for the same company Yaeshima works in. At first glance, this manga sounds like something ecchi or hentai related. However, this is a misplacement of the genre as it goes beyond that and presents a more adult and mature approach to romantic relationships. A few chapters in, the two main characters are an established couple, as they help each other guide their way through life. What makes this couple so charming is that despite their differences, they have great chemistry and they wholeheartedly admire and respect each other. Their effective communication with each other allows them to teach the other how to better themselves and create a good relationship. It's so frustrating to me when miscommunication is one of the factors that drive many romance manga couples into arguments and confusion because of the lack of direct communication. The couple in Ase to Sekken feels refreshing in that regard because they take account of realistic hardships that could occur in a relationship while also introducing their characteristics and slowly developing the two characters at the same time. It's ability to combine great character development and further the progress of the couple's relationship as each chapter goes by makes this manga very appealing and genuinely satisfying to read. |
Ase to Sekken review
To be honest, when I first read the synopsis, I was turned off from reading the manga thinking it was a story about a strange man having a 'smell fetish'. While the latter remains somewhat true, I was surprised that I came to like the story and Asako and Natori-san's relationship. Despite the smell fetish, their relationship is quite relaxing without any orchestrated drama. It's a refreshing (no pun intended) and lighthearted work within the josei genre. If you are looking for a josei romance with a little bit of fluff and smut, this might be for you. I am definitely looking forward to more
chapters!

Ase to Sekken review
I don't write reviews often but i really felt this one deserved one. It's such a heartwarming manga that just makes me smile more and more for every chapter.
Ase to Sekken is a very cute and heartwarming manga about a girl/woman who works at a cosmetics company. At the company she meets a man with a very good sense of smell (It'll make sense if you read it) and falls in love with him. She is very insecure however and constantly doubts herself so their relationship is a little ''sway'y'' but that just adds to the charm and really makes you root for her There is sex in the manga so it's definitely not a manga angled at children but rather young adults/teenagers. And if you don't like smell fetishes this is definitely not a manga for you. This is my first review on MAL so i apologize if it's bad ;). |
