Synopsis

Commonly mistaken as a doll, the Hybrid Child is a toy that can adapt human abilities—from reading books to conveying emotions. Their capability relies on the degree of affection their owner provides them. Nurture them with the best affection and the model will flourish.

Together for 10 years, the slothful Kotarou Izumi believes that Hazuki—a Hybrid Child whom he owns—will be in his life for eternity. But everything comes crashing down when the artificial human suddenly collapses.

Hybrid Child manifests the struggles of the Hybrid Children and their owners through three brief narratives.

One word, AMAZING. It brought tears to my eyes and stabbed my chest because the last chapter was so tragic. :( At first, I didn't want to read it but when I told my friend to read this and she said it was good, I took the challenge even though I don't want anyone to die! XD But it's all worth it! I read a beautiful story and it touched my heart how HCs give importance to their masters no matter what and stay by their side forever. :) That's all I can say! XD

Preliminary (3/5 eps)

The stories are short, sweet, sexy and fun. At one point I was laughing out loud as the hilarious conversations, they are perfect and witty! Also, the art was well done, and story lines not overly dramatic or unnecessarily angsty, each are different, so you get a range from simple fun to poignant loss each telling a tale of a hybrid child, a being created to change and grow according to their owner's needs and wishes. This is a great "introduction" for readers just beginning to enjoy yaoi. In fact, I have bought and given copies as gifts to friends though I always keep a ...
