My Fave Comedian is now my "Big Brother"

I am a person who loves comedy deeply. Living in a rural area, I cannot attend manzai performances or unit lives, but since I live for comedy every day, mainly through radio, I was more anxious than usual about whether it might not match my tastes—but all that anxiety was blown away. I'm glad I bought it. It was truly wonderful. As the manga artist in charge of the art mentions in the afterword, the two male characters who appear are both incredibly well-defined. In particular, I could imagine everything about 西嶋さん, from his appearance: "He's probably good at ogiri," "He must be highly supported by the theater and comedy fans, and when he appears on his juniors' or peers' YouTube channels, the comments must go wild," and "He's the type of manzai performer who gets comments like 'Please, really make it big,' 'Why aren't you famous yet,' and 'Our own 〇〇' on his contest qualifying round videos or the videos uploaded to the theater's YouTube account." It was unbearable in the best way. The facial features, which seem to condense the elements of about three real-life manzai performers, and the expressions that make you imagine his voice are truly wonderful. I don't think it was intentional, but the protagonist's name, 向井, also feels like a comedian's name, which is nice. He sounds like a radio star with feminine features. I wonder if 向井ちゃん in the story will quit being a comedian. It seems like he would focus on supporting 西嶋さん. That is also lovely. After all, from the wings of the stage, 西嶋さん cannot see 向井ちゃん. As I put in the review title, the sex while exchanging banter was really good. It felt so much like a comedian. I fell in love with 西嶋さん, who struggles desperately between himself as a person and himself as a comedian. 西嶋さん is quite toned, isn't he? Given his comedy style, a lanky build would also be plausible. Furthermore, although this is from a comedian fan's perspective, the fact that everyone except 西嶋 among the main three speaks standard Japanese felt so much like a Tokyo theater. I don't have enough characters. Please buy it.

The character design of 西嶋さん, who the protagonist admires, is exactly my type. Black hair, dead eyes, a mole by the mouth, a nonchalant attitude, and a Kansai dialect. I'm a sucker for happy endings, so the conclusion warmed my heart too. The story starts with a pretty unsettling setup: 2 guys and 1 girl go to karaoke, then to a house for drinks, one guy falls asleep, and they have sex right next to him. Then, 西嶋さん, who was the one sleeping, finds out they did it when he says, "I didn't know you could make sounds like that"... After that, 西嶋さん is the one showing his obsession, losing his cool and getting intense, which is incredibly lewd. Also, the protagonist is such a lewd girl that she masturbates while performing fellatio on 西嶋さん, which was amazing. The development where she gets forced into irrumatio by 西嶋さん afterwards is just lewd the whole time. Since she has the hyper-vitality to "become a comedian herself just to get closer to the person she admires," it makes sense that she likes lewd things too lol. Man, the way he gets jealous after being shown the sex with the sex friend and it turns into pure love—no matter how you look at it, 西嶋さん is the one with the heavy obsession, which is great. Thanks for the meal.

The way the characters direct their emotions feels so fresh, yet it's an incredibly intense erotic work that really hit the spot!! At first, the heroine 向井ちゃん doesn't have sex with her favorite 西嶋さん, but with her colleague 竹内くん, who is her friends-with-benefits partner. I was surprised by how thoroughly and intensely the erotic scenes were depicted. Moreover, the way it's portrayed that 竹内くん has some complicated feelings about 向井ちゃん only having eyes for 西嶋さん, and his inner turmoil, hit me from a completely unexpected direction... Is it really okay for me to read two types of obsession(?) eroticism in a single work like this... And the part that hit me the most was how 西嶋さん directs his emotions toward 向井ちゃん; it was so fitting for a comedian and felt very good. His way of asking about 向井ちゃん's relationship with her colleague was like, "Were you a fan of that guy?" "Is he funny? That guy," maintaining a stance of evaluating him strictly as a comedian. And when he clung to 向井ちゃん saying, "Don't do it with other comedians, I don't mind if it's a hairdresser or something, but..." it felt like his own unique way of showing love to 向井ちゃん, who has truly lived as a comedian and watched him all this time; it felt unique yet incredibly endearing! Thinking about how he was struggling as a comedian and feeling anxious, then realizing that 向井ちゃん, who had always watched him, was no longer in the audience and was being held by another comedian—he must have reached his mental limit and ended up holding 向井ちゃん himself. For someone like me whose fetish is men driven crazy by women, the situation in this work was truly the best! Also, the fact that 向井ちゃん is such a cute and erotic girl was the best! She is a very precarious girl who is easily aroused and easily swayed, but I really love 向井ちゃん, who is devoted to 西嶋さん, combined with her cute, troubled-looking expressions. It was a work that really hit my fetishes, with the unique changes in the relationship between a comedian and a fan depicted so intensely!

I have been waiting for this release ever since I saw the preview, because works released by the circle 「THE猥談」 often feature men who are clearly 'just playing around,' which is exactly my fetish. But! This! This is...!!!! ...Isn't this a happy ending? At the very least, the way the story concludes feels like a happy ending to me. Or rather, even setting aside whether it's romantic love, I felt like, 'Wait, this doesn't feel like just playing around?' That was good in its own way, though. However, I didn't expect there to be a separate 'playboy' character!? Oh, by 'playboy,' I mean the guy who treats the heroine like a friends-with-benefits partner, who also appears in the preview. The development where they have sex with the FWB while the guy she likes is sleeping right next to them—I thought that was so hot! Since 「THE猥談」's works are based on real experiences, I find the 'I didn't see that coming!?' moments interesting. Everyone loves scenarios that incite shame, right? (Huge generalization). By the way, '兄さん' wasn't in the sense of a step-brother, but rather a term for a close senior at the agency. I love the narrative romance of going from someone you unilaterally directed your fan-like admiration and affection toward, to then having that person direct their obsession toward you (even if it might not be romantic affection). 'The woman who was supposed to love me is being held by a rival man'—that makes one jealous and ignites a fire, I get it. And as a reader, I find it moe, so it's a win-win. Personally, I was charmed by the vulnerability 西嶋さん occasionally shows, or perhaps the worries unique to a performer? It made me want to support them. I think the reason they hadn't made a move until now was because they truly cared for the heroine. Because of that, I think they are a cute person and I like them. May their future be happy! I hope the models they are based on are doing well too.

Fans are just fans. The opening clearly shows that 西嶋さん was someone on the other side of the screen, and that there was no intention of anything happening between them. I was stunned by 向井さん having sex with another man right next to the person she idolized! Conversely, 西嶋さん, the object of her affection, was incredibly aware of 向井さん from the very beginning—it was a sort of reversal story. (It was cute how 西嶋さん twitched when he sensed that 向井さん was a regular at 竹内くん's place based on her behavior the moment she walked in.) And 向井さん, is she perhaps easily swayed and the type to test out sex with anyone? It’s amazing how she latches onto 西嶋さん right after he finds out about her sex with others. I strongly agreed with 西嶋さん's line, 'What are you trying to do, 向井ちゃん?' I felt a bit sorry for 西嶋さん being toyed with by 向井さん, who seemed to have feelings for him but remained elusive, but that’s exactly why the depiction of his jealousy was so exciting. It’s amazing that he had noticed her from across the stage since her days in small halls. She must have been happy that he was watching her. Wanting him to look at her head-on—isn't that more than just a crush? Even though they both have feelings, the direction, or rather the shade of those feelings, is completely different, which was both frustrating and mature—it felt like something unique to THE猥談. 向井さん remained a hardcore fan until the very end of the story, but since she promised it would only be 西嶋さん, I hope they have a good relationship from here on out.

I started out chasing my favorite comedian, and before I knew it, I was aspiring to be a "comedian" myself. I joined the agency, and the comedian I admired became my "niisan." Just hearing that, it sounds like a huge heartwarming story! But this work is about dirty talk, you know. The heroine hides the fact that she used to be a fan from 西嶋さん. Having sex with a fellow comedian right next to 西嶋さん and pressing her face into a cushion to keep quiet while praying "don't wake up!" was the best. Being held right next to the person you admire—that sense of immorality is super exciting, right! After drinking, 西嶋さん points out that day, and when he asks if she's a fan of his fellow comedian and she says "no," they head to a hotel. I did want to ask, "Do people in the comedy scene sleep with fans?" lol Going to a hotel with the person you admire, the heroine doing whatever she wants, cumming on her own, and getting irama—she's super lewd. He also knew that the heroine used to be his fan. He was shocked that she was sleeping with a fellow comedian because he thought she was watching him. So cute. While talking about why she came to the same side as him, him saying "I can't look at (the heroine)" was very impressive. I thought, "You think things like that behind that cool face? 'Am I not funny? Should I quit?'" And the way he dove in all at once after being told he was funny was the best. If the person you admire tells you not to sleep with other comedians, you're definitely not going to sleep with them anymore, right. The back-position sex scene was way too erotic ◎ Seeing the after-story, I was like, "You sex friend!!" lol The heroine's fan moves are too cute. For the heroine's sake, 西嶋さん, please get famous quickly! And don't get scooped by some boring tabloid! I guess it's a happy ending for the heroine...? It's a complicated one. Thank you for the wonderful work.
