Leopard Hakusho Manga and Drama CD



Leopard Hakusho by Ougi Yuzuha
Aya, a popular host who works at the club, "Leopard", is known for his good looks and his love for money. One day, a man named Shingyouji, with an aura fit to be a king, comes by and says, "I'll buy you. How much do you want?" What awaits Aya within the next 24 hours is house-wife role playing and lots of S&M sex… A story that begins with money and body that leads to one hell of a relationship starts here! From BangAQUA.

This is a MasterxSlave type of story or should it be a KingXServant type...well both fits the bill for this story as Shingyouji is seen as a King in the story where Aya has no choice but to obey his commands and fall deeper into his world.  Aya is often teased as being a wildcat. I was pretty drawn in to this manga from the first chapter when I saw Aya cross-dressing in a bridal dress. And also the fact that Shingyouji was the type of seme I like in BL; forceful, rash, arrogant, confident but still shy. Think of Megane Katsuya or Takanori Midou from Kichiku Megane. The whole manga was mostly smut and the confession was only in the last chapter. (Talk about working backwards LOL) I enjoyed the story as I did with other Ougi Yuzuha work.


Cast:
Koyasu Takehito X Kondo Takashi


The drama CD was pretty fine. At the time Kondo Takashi was still pretty much a newbie in BL voice-acting even though I have heard him in Crimson Spell. He improved quite a bit with better timed moaning and other sounds. And Koyasu Takehito...well he pulled it off as always with his forever mature and deep sounding voice. Koyasu-san has a unique voice, it's the type that once you hear once you'll probably recognize later on in other CDs or animes. I'm pretty sure he had a role in UraBoku.
There was background music in this CD :D At least the sound production company wasn't lazy in giving fujoshis the full experience.


The drama CD flows well with the manga too with some extra lines here and there and a few missing scenes. So yes you can read the manga while listening to the CD.
