I'm pretty certain this is an H-Doujin. This artist has done another series about a husband and wife who ended up working in opposing companies.

Mangaupdates has Velvet Kiss as a Borderline-H title. While Velvet Kiss does have sex in every chapter I don't consider it too explicit or the focal point of the manga. It still plays an important role in the manga though.

Sex takes up 1/3 to 1/2 the chapters, I'd call that an H-manga. I don't think that because the author "whites-out" the genitals for censorship purposes nullifies it from being such.

I'm not sure what you're trying to get across. Are you trying to put this series down or something? There is zero censorship in this series. While there are sex scenes, there is a clear and present plot with fascinating characters.

And I don't think this classifies as a doujin since it's serialized in a magazine and later published in tanks.

Yeah, I kinda already wondered about the whole h-series being discussed here just one page ago, and also mentioned that "another series" Koi wo Suru, which I thought was lovely. So I also don't see what your point is.

It shows no genetalia. And no it isnt censored. Author herself draws it the way that you would not see it. Thus it is not an H. Just borderline H. Another news is that doujins dont get published in magazines. it is a serialized manga, weather you like it or not.

Besides sex scenes are more of a fanservice (specially between side-characters). The main focus is still the plot (romance between Nitta and Kano, Kano's loneliness, Nitta's debt, scheming Kano's family etc).

If you can't see that then you need to consider to have your eyes checked.

No, I'm not cutting it down. The story is decent and has lots of sex. If you know me, I'm perv through and through. There's nothing wrong with calling it pornographic, its still softcore porn. It's serialized in an adult magazine with lots of hentai. I'm just confident enough in myself that I'm enjoying adult content. Why be offended over it just because people refer to it as such?

Well Nana to Kaoru is also in an adult magazine but its hardly a hentai (more like smut). Here we see much more nakedness but in fact probably more plot and interpersonal relationship too.

Velvet Kiss is hardly a hentai, but borderline to it, as again genitalia is not shown and sex is more like an addition to the story rather than the story itself.

Normally Hentai mangas do not have the longer lasting or complex plot. Velvet Kiss is rather complex, certainly much more complex than quite some non-h manga's and the vast majority of H manga's.

In fact so far it is most complicated story that Chihiro has done up to this date (which leads me to think that it will have more than your usual 3 volume fix).

I don't think anyone was offended so much as curious why you were pointing out what seemed obvious

There isn't really that much sex. With six chapters out, one had two pages out of the steady 20 pages per chapter. This is not softcore porn. It's like all of those HBO and Showtime shows. Are they porn with all of the sex that's in them? No.

It's a total addition. It actually served a big purpose in the last chapter too.

Chihiro is truly a great author. She keeps getting better and better.

Though the most of the scenes are more like fanservice. specially between side characters.

The major development during sex scenes would be when they start kissing.

Velvet kiss certainly is higher in terms of art (particularly Kano is the hottest heroine Chihiro has drawn up to date) and the plotline is certainly deeper.

Falling in Love is Work manga was good and had a nice plotline, but Velvet Kiss has much more to offer and raises a lot more questions as it starts digging into social relationships between people, friendship (or lack of real friends), loneliness (in the middle of the crowd), family and of course love.

Oh, if that's just it's simple. I suppose I've only seen this series in adult sites, It took me by surprise a bit that it was being discussed here. Kinda made me think if it's ok for me to make topics on other adult content

On a side note, Ch.8 was out for awhile. It was independently translated I think.

Spoiler for ch8:

I believe it's a case by case basis. With most, there is really not much to talk about besides the stuff you can be banned for, lol.

But it is also pretty explaining. Kano wants to see adults without their masks thus enjoys bringing out their strong emotions like fear. Thats why she keeps dragging Nitta around too, though now she is enjoying herself more than she herself expected.
