>How did you hear about Harada?
Hiro Shimono was in Yatamomo's drama CD and I was listening to BL drama CDs with his voice in it
>Who's your favourite couple from her mangas?
Still Yata chan and Momota hahaha
>How about least favourite?
Yoru and Asaichi. Asa's just a shithead that I didn't like in general and Yoru enables him all the time.
>What do you like best about her works?
The way she creates tension in her more horror themed works is amazing, most actual horror manga can't even compare honestly. Also her tear jerking stuff is great
>Do you think there's something to improve?
Although I love her art I wish there was a bit more variety in character designs, it's hard to tell them apart sometimes!
>Have you read any anthologies she took part in?
A few! The one with the love triangle where the protagonist was the third wheel girl was cute, but I did feel bad for her.
>Do you own any merch?
Sadly no…
>Are you familiar with her older works?
I checked out some of her Gintama doujins, but I've never read Gintama so I didn't get much from it.
>Are you going to watch the One Room Angel live action?
It's already out and I watched some of it, but not much. I love one room angel but the acting is pretty off…

>How did you hear about Harada?
Found her work randomly on a manga site.
>What was your first manga you read from her?
That train chikan oneshot that's part of Yajirushi.
>What's your favourite manga from her?
One Room Angel!
>What do you like best about her works? Do you think there's something to improve?
The way she draws hair is really beautiful and I love her paneling. I don't think there's really anything to improve. She's an amazing artist and writer, but personally her characters are too whorish for my taste.
>What was your favourite character moment?
Asaichi getting raped, he deserved it.
>Are you going to watch the One Room Angel live action?
I know they can't cast an actual 14 year old, but the guy playing Angel just isn't cute enough, so no.

>How did you hear about Harada?
I was looking for 'straight boy gets penetrated' manga and 'Happy Shitty Life' was on the list.
>What was your first manga you read from her?
See above.
>What's your favourite manga from her?
Still, 'Happy Shitty Life' because it's extremely well-drawn, the couple is versatile and both exemplify attractive uke traits, which are well-needed in a vers pairing IMO. Also, the whole 'we are normally straight' thing is a huge draw. They also feel very much like real-life guys.
>Who's your favourite couple from her mangas?
See above. Pretty, petty high-class office workers being made to take cock is a nice one, so is cute scrappy countryside orphan who can be a real ass, in more ways than one.
I also like the guys from Nii-san, which was fucked up, deeply so and I wasn't a huge fan of the story, but 'molested older guy forced to admit vulnerability' got to me hard. I especially love that they eventually go versatile.
>How about least favourite?
N/A, I can't think of one I dislike.
>What do you like best about her works? Do you think there's something to improve?
How she gets the appeal of cocky ukes. Wet blankets are no fun, but a guy who thinks in his heart that he's off to top, like in the Messiah series? Yes please. Cocky fuck who got in over his head like in Happy Shitty Life? Heck yes. She does cocky ukes very, very well, I feel they're often underutilized normally.
>What was your favourite character moment?
Just the entirety of Happy Shitty Life.
>Have you read any anthologies she took part in?
>Do you own any merch?
How do I get merch for Harada?
>Do you know any similar manga artists?
Her art reminds me of one chick who wrote for Gothic Lolita magazine, but that chick did wet blanket, underage looking ukes from what I recall.
>Are you familiar with her older works?
What, the Gintama DJ?
>Are you going to watch the One Room Angel live action?
Not a huge fan of Live-Action, so probably no.

Question, I somehow recall there being a doujinshi for One Room Angel out there, anyone know it? Or did I dream it up?

>>2654>I also like the guys from Nii-san, which was fucked up, deeply so and I wasn't a huge fan of the story, but 'molested older guy forced to admit vulnerability' got to me hard.Agree. Nii-san fucked me up bad initially but after the story really sunk in I liked how his character was handled (especially how his family tried to "fix" him) and how the trauma he experienced lead him to hound the high of having power over someone smaller than him was done pretty well despite the subject matter. It's probably the most messed up work Harada has done in my opinion but it was poignant to say the least. I also like that she didn't go full happy ending because when it's all said and done the other guy was just as traumatized himself but instead of seeking revenge on someone smaller than him (Like nii-san did) he went for the predator himself. It was an interesting take. I really enjoyed the girl character being a lesbian and the concept of lavender relationships being addressed.
>She does cocky ukes very, very well, I feel they're often underutilized normally.Agree about this too, I wish other mangakas took notes.
