'...Overall however it's a great yaoi manga! Yes it has a few dodgy moments, especially if you're not obsessed with hairy men, but even so... Buy it. Read it. Love it. It's perfect for a fujoshi who likes a bit of diversity in their collection!'

Love Full of Scars is a compilation of several short stories that gravitate around rough but surprisingly cute men. Of course we also have several bishies here, but it was such a pleasant surprise to find hairy, old and though men acting in such a lovely way.

'Cause I love every bit of you is the first chapter. This is an hilarious story about two high school students that met by chance, Minamibo Yoko and Saito Yukio. Yoko is completely beautiful and seemingly fragile in Saito's eyes. Besides, since he is always sporting some kind of minor injury, Saito feels bothered to the point he starts imagining all kind of scenes that seem taken from your average boys love story; Minamibo is sexually abused by almost anyone in these delusions. However, appearances are deceiving, especially with these two boys.

Then we have Driving School Romance were Ishimoto meets the creator of his favorite manga character, Kanaya, in the driving school. They easily become friends, even getting drunk together. Ishimoto is touched by the loneliness of Kanaya to the point of thinking of him as cute. The morning after is a combination of confusion and a completely hilarious train of thought, as Ishimoto realizes he might have done something more than just wrestling with Kanaya.

A Delusional Couple's Romance is a crazy story, more like a comedy with touches of shounen and...well...a bit of incest. Aki is coming back home after 2 years, eager to meet with his cute little brother but, guess what he finds instead? a 13 years old that looks more like an adult tug. Aki's dreams of pampering his younger brother are shattered for a moment, until he realizes Hirofumi is still the same inside. Well, that's when his weird delusions and attempts at brotherly love start, but Hirofumi is now avoiding him, causing things to spiral into an incredibly hilarious nonsense that manages to be very cute.

Love full of scars is the main story for this book, composed by three chapters (and an extra at the end of the manga). Kanda Seishiro and Uesaka Kaname are both school delinquents, you could say they are the toughest guys in there. Since he was defeated for the first time, Uesaka keeps on following Kanda around to fight with him. And, only god knows why, between all that beating, Kanda felt in love with the honorable Ueasaka. However, that doesn't seem to stop his punches and insults; even when Kanda wants to express his love he only manages to do exactly the opposite of what he is thinking. Quite endearing, really, he is like a lovely maiden on the inside and a foul-mouthed violent tug on the outside. Uesaka has my total respect, not only he manages to sort all of that out, he is also resolved to convince Kanda's deamon drag-queen older brother of his good intentions. How amazing is that!

The last story, A Vortex of Love, features the demon brother's side of the story. Kanda Kotaro has been working in a club as a transvestite, called Ruby, for a long time. Ever since their parents death, he has become the only family and support to his little brother Seishiro, until the point that he never thought much about himself. Seeing his brother grow up and find love, Ruby is becoming very lonely. Misato Yuji, a co-worker, is always trying to cheer Ruby up, to offer him his love. The problem is Ruby only thinks that way of someone he hurt deeply in the past, even when he barely remembers that little boy from middle school. To top it all, Misato's kindness only seems to trigger those regretful memories even more.

Honestly, Psyche Delico won me out with only this manga. Because all the stories are amazingly cute, hilarious and touching at the same time, I couldn't help it. They are all very sexy too, without being extremely explicit, in the intimate scenes; the strong, violent and rough appeal of the characters is what provides this effect. The mangaka doesn't shy away from some facial and body hair, not so cute hair styles (really what's up with Hirofumi's hair? That thing is alive!), bashed up faces, oldies and drag queens. Not only that, these characters are full of quirks, sometimes very weird ones, and aren't they lewd with so many delusions? What I liked the most, of course, was the unexpected ways the roles took, not following the usual pattern in BL were you could easily predict the top. All that diversity is very welcomed, especially with the smooth and simple art style that makes all the characters attractive: Love Full of Scars is a bunch of sexy awkward rough men on a plate.

This manga might not be considered a masterpiece, but it's a really nice pick if you want to feel good and get into a story without excessive amounts of drama. The surprising turns, hilarious characters and engaging flow are its outstanding points. I just wish there was more of these one-shots, after all, I love them that crazy.

Its so cute and funny, I laughed all the way to the end, totally unexpected, I like my BL just like this light and lively, funny and nice ending.

I was originally only going to read the free preview and the last story, as I never had read a story with a cross-dressing performer as the main character. I enjoyed the art and humor (violent humor seems to be the norm for this mangaka, but it's "comic" violence, ultimately, with happy endings), and the running theme of the Big Misunderstanding. In the first chapter, what goes on in the hairy guy's head is not reality, but we suspect that from the get-go. The Minotaur superhero story has another humorous misunderstanding, the common situation of "drank too much, woke up nekkid in bed with another guy" thing, drenched in otaku-ness and how one deals with loneliness. I had intended to skip the "incest" story (not my thang AT ALL), and it was the last one I paid for and read, but I caved in the end cause I liked the comic aspect of the other stories. It is hilarious. It's over the top brotherly love that ends up being a lot less gross than "incest" would make one think. The main story with the "battling" couple is supremely adorable, mainly cause the main character is so comically besotted and his love interest is so dependably unruffled by the antics of the over-reacting partner. I love the tree-climbing repetitive incidents. Hah. The cross-dresser's story also has its violent edge, but by the time the gigglesome aspect of "morning beard" crops up, I was totally won over by this rather unconventional couple. Very funny series of stories, and I recommend it if you like the "violent, but not realistic violence, but comic violent" sort of tales that all end well.

The intro makes it sound like an anthology of angst. It's not! If anything, Love Full of Scars is chock full of hilarious crack with adorable characters you can't help but root for. Definitely recommended for anyone who loves the genre!
