Bitter Virgin


I've first downloaded this as a result of boredom. It was on the Top 50 (I think, it placed around 20-30) of AnimeEDEN.com. The title make me curious and what's more it has already a finish story. So I clicked on it.

The summary on that site goes like this - "Suwa Daisuke is the ladies man of his small town high school, and he has his eye on almost every girl, except for one. Aikawa Hinako isn't his type, but when he overhears a deep dark secret of hers, he finds himself thinking of her more and more."

And I got bored of downloading manga there because of the same style of drawing used by different mangakas. But this manga has a little difference in it. The genre, - Drama, Mature, Psychological, Romance, Slice of Life, Tragedy. Many which I don't usually be interested in, especially psychological. So I give it a shot.

The Synopsis (Spoiler! Don't read if you want to feel the thrill reading the manga yourself.)
Suwa Daisuke was running away from 2 girls (His classmates that both likes him into a church (which has an Eerie urban legend). In there, he sorta pray. After a while when he finished he heard the church's door being open and he hides himself, thinking that it was those 2 friends of him coming in. It was not them 2 but Aikawa Hinako, another one of his classmates. She is transfer student and the type of girl who Daisuke himself said would not fall in love to. She come to confess about her dark history, to cover himself Daisuke said he is the priest of the church.

Apparently, she was rape at 14 by her stepfather and had an abortion. She tells this to her mother but was ignored caused her mother think that she done it with her boyfriend. Then as the time passed by she pregnant again and gave birth to a child. Her body couldnt take the burden of pregnancy at such age, the doctor says that she can't bear any children in the future. She said that although she never saw the child, she wants to celebrate his 1st birthday.

Daisuke was shocked and he still doesn't believe what he hear. Not until he accidently saw a scar on Aikawa's belly. C-Section scar.

Little by little from sympathy it turens into love.

After reading a few chapters, I couldnt stop reading. It was so good that I've finished reading it in a day. Wish to buy the manga collection so I can read em off the computer. Reading from computer and book format sure are different.

Just wanna let u guys know about this awesome manga.
