READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Sundome means 'stopping before[something happens].
It's a psychological-comedy-tragedy-ecchi-school life-seinen manga by Okada Kazuto.
The story revolves around Aiba-kun, a lonely and invisible boy who craves excitement. He is a member of the much despised Roman Club - the members are made of a promiscuous girl who likes 1000 yen notes, a pervert who likes to probe others'...anus....wtf, a dude who likes anime dolls in a 'personal' way and a geek who's obsessed with UFO and aliens etc. Aiba is only there because the Roman Club are outcasts and Aiba feels accepted with these often disturbing but fun characters. XD
Everything changed when he befriends the new girl in his class, Kurumi Sahana. Sahana is a girl who enjoys Aiba's quirks and it soon blossomed into a unique quid-pro-quo based relationship. Read that as bizarre.
This manga requires it's readers to have an open mind because what is normal to these couple, may seem a little to extreme to people who aren't used to have a physical relationship that daringly explores beyond the "norm".
As Aiba-kin put's it - But I think everyone has this. Something that's completely normal to them that others simply wouldn't understand.
The theme in this manga is basically sexual exploration between two people who understand each other like the back of their hands, a passion so great that they know what each other needs and gives it without questions. A love so sincere and unconventional and that the average person may have a hard time to drink in.
The character development in this manga is amazing. You had this absolutely doormat-y Aiba-kun who lets anything happen if Kurumi is the who's doing it. He then builds confidence because Kurumi hones him into a brave young man into making him take up challenging 'projects'.
The ending of this manga is one of the most emotional and of quality that I have ever seen in a long time. It's mature theme and exposure of basal/carnal human nature is fantastic.
Have some tissues ready at hand.
I would seriously recommend reading this manga but brace yourself for extremely mature elements such as:
- Sadomasochism(BDSM)
- Urolagnia
- Possible necrophilia
- Voyeurism
- Suffocation/Torture/Snuff
- Anatomical
- And other various forms of fetish
The above list scared the crap out of you, didn't it? Which is why I cannot stress enough the reason why you need to really brace yourself to read this manga!
