Junjou Romantica 10 - Yaoi terrorism.

Published by Taiyaki Category: Junjou Romantica


Haha, oh boy.

Flavor: Sweet

Didn’t think I’d enjoy this episode because I thought the first manga chapter from this pairing wasn’t all that great… but somehow it seemed more entertaining in anime form. Also, like I’ve said before, I don’t really read/watch that many yaoi series, so a pairing where the uke acts like a seme is all new stuff to me (though I’m sure it still isn’t something that common anyways).

Anyways, so in Junjou Terrorist we have this uke called Shinobu Takatsuki who fell in love at first sight with professor You Miyagi (the same old dude who appeared on Junjou Egoist’s second arc). They first met around three years ago when Shinobu was getting bullied by some guys on the streets and Miyagi was the one who came to his rescue. Shinobu immediately felt that their encounter had been destined to happen and called it “fate” or something like that, and he was quite surprised to find out that after that they were planning on heading to the same location. However, when they arrived Shinobu discovered that both of their families had been waiting for them on the same place because Miyagi was actually his sister’s fiance. LOL, the ultimate rejection!

So, the years passed and Miyagi got divorced… which Shinobu saw as a new chance to win over the guy’s heart. He returns from Australia and meets up with the professor on some kind of restaurant where he starts talking about all this destiny business. Miyagi doesn’t seem too convinced about any of this and starts telling stuff like “You know I’m 35 years old and we’re both guys, right? Please stop making fun of me!” but Shinobu doesn’t really care and just wants him to take responsibility for making him fall in love with him. XD

Later, we get to see how Miyagi starts getting tired of the situation after the director at the University he works at asks him to let his son (which ends up being Shinobu) stay at his place for some weeks. Then the guy itself reveals that he plans to get into M University just so he could be around Miyagi, and that’s when the old professor decides to play a little prank on the kid since he feels that he’s really gone too far with this “joke”. However, once he’s done “playing” with him, he sees him crying and stuff and finally realizes that Shinobu has been serious about it all this time. Lastly, the episode ends with the scene from the second chapter where Shinobu tells Miyagi about how his name also means Ninja and that he’s not giving up with his stalking activities or whatever.

Next episode: The end of the first Junjou Terrorist arc.

    The whole “You like ninjas, right?” part at the end was so dumb… Shinobu is psycho, emo, and talks crap about destiny - all the things I hate in an uke, I mean seme, I mean… *confused* But this coupling is funny and at least they didn’t start off with buttsecks, so *shrugs*

    I love Shinobu because of his “fate” and “take responsibility” lines! It’s great seeing a forceful uke every now and then. Shinobu’s excuses to like Miyagi are ridiculous but they at least their epic … unlike Miyagi’s excuses LOL.
