Doujinshi: Kuro Ken! & Don't Go Overboard



Kuro Ken! and Don't Go Overboard are doujinshi / 同人誌 (usually fanbooks) that feature the Haikyū!! pairings of Kenma & Kuro and Ukai & Takeda. They are hard yaoi (BL) scanlations and rated NC-17 or R-18. That is, not safe for work and illegal in some countries for those under eighteen.

!! Please read !! 

Canonically, Kuroo Tetsurō is seventeen and Kozume Kenma is sixteen. Both Japan and USA's legal restricted age of consent is eighteen. From what I understand, my state law age is sixteen where Japan's is thirteen--if both parties are under eighteen and consenting then it is legal. [versus a sixteen year old/eighteen year old, in which the legal adult would be prosecuted.]
However, this doesn't change the fact that Kuro Ken! features minors. From what I can tell the team is at the training camp so they should be around canonical age if this is true. Technically, this is considered shota as the characters are under-age.








Title: Kuro Ken!
Pairing: Kenma x Kuro
Author: Junko (clip-clop)
Language: English [Japanese]
Genre: Comedy/humor, hardcore
Scanlaters: Yaoislife

Summary: A look into Kuro and Kenma's relationship. "After restraining himself for too long, as soon as he gets a little excited Kenma's switch goes off... It's rare, but he doesn't know what to do with himself."

I am a big fan of multi-volume manga that requires days of marathon reading, instant meals, and flavored beverages to complete. Most doujinshi aren't that long and finding one that is, is like spotting a unicorn. Kuro Ken! takes a whopping ten minutes to scroll through, but totally worth the read. Falling under the wet and messy pwp (porn without plot) spectrum, the art is beautiful, the censoring is a joke, and there is just a size difference.

Kenma's first appearance is giving a blowjob with an apt surprised! expression from a sleepy Kuro. Kenma ends up in one of my favorite positions: ass to dick on the lap. Good things always happen and gratuitous nipple play is almost a given. Rimming is featured as is a sex starved bottom. Really, cock hungry ABO dynamic fics are what I'm usually reading and Kuro Ken! is as close as it comes. Yes, I am trash.




Title: Sake Wa Horoyoi Hana wa Tsubomi (Don't Go Overboard)
Pairing: Ukai x Takeda
Author: Chikadoh/Haruko
Language: English [Japanese]
Genre: Comedy/humor, hardcore
Scanlaters: Baka Dumb Aho

Summary: After drinking too much, Takeda helps Ukai home, only to be waylaid into a park where an unfortunate bathroom stall is vandalized. "Should a teacher be grinding his hips like this?"

Don't Go Overboard has about as much plot as Kuro Ken! There is a smidgen of a back-story flashback where Ukai and Takeda are having sex and it's alluded they aren't yet entirely comfortable with one another. [where Kenma and Kuro are completely comfortable about their nudity/sex/relationship.]

There are more nipple scenes, no censorship, and my all time favorite sex position of frottage. Again, there is a slight height difference, but none of the extremes I've seen manga go to. Takeda's expressions are on point without going into "convulsions of pleasure" (ya'll know what I'm talking about) but I would have liked to see smudged or skewed glasses. Takeda's continuously changing penis size is a bit disconcerting, but I've seen some seriously fucked up anatomy. Regardless, the manga doesn't disappoint.

Ukai is sort of a sleeper character--in the anime he is cocky and sure-going so it's nice to see him flustered. (ノ♡ヮ♡)ノ*:・゚✧ This doujinshi has less of a noncon element where Takeda and Ukai are in assumed agreement. Finally, a surprise appearance by Kiyoko!
