What is Shoujo Ai manga?

Shoujo Ai means girls love, and thus explores what happens when two girls (or women) fall in love. This is not to be mistaken for Yuri which is (or, at least, how this term is often used by the western audience) used in adult works. This is not; that means there is no graphical sex. The male version is Shounen Ai.

Kiss, Zekkou, Kiss

8.24

Description:

The first volume is a prelude to the next 10 volumes that is titled Kiss. This series is a prelude to the relationship between Sakisasa and Hatori, their ups and downs. What sets this series apart is the fact that each situation is told twice - from the girl's POV and then the guy's POV. That hence makes it a very interesting read and provides the reader with the chance to look at the two different sides of a coin. From VK Scans
