This was quite the treat. Happy fucking Birthday to me. I adored this story.
The title of the Manga is rather self-explanatory. It is an island where disturbingly handsome men fight with their dicks. In this universe, conflict has progressed from bloodletting and body counts to who can make a prince climax the fastest. Fun for the whole family!
My favorite thing about this was the art. Historically, all the princes who have "fought" before have changed their "armor" from basic "protection" to intricate works of art meant to hide secret weapons and entice the opponent. This is a culture that believes in the heavenly glory of the ass, so every man of age showcases their taut firm buttocks in their designer chaps.
There are many characters to be followed, and this is perhaps where the story suffers the most. You want it to turn into an ASOIAFian tome where every character and their childhood dog's backstory is shared. Such was their grasp on my attention that when we'd switch POVs I'd shake my device with frustration. Maybe this is why I struggle with comic books and graphic novels, I'm always wanting more.
The story does spend an inordinate amount of time espousing the virtues of engaging the prostate in coital activity. And I was here. for. it. It takes itself so seriously that you just can't help but wish reality was this simple. That conflict resolution was this pleasurable. That men had asses this bita... I think I lost myself for a minute there.
Aside from gratuitous mutually assured masturbation fight sequences, there are romantic arcs in this brief Manga. Thankfully, some were left open to interpretation, or as my newly 28 year old cynical ass likes to call it, sequel-baiting. And am I baited? You're damn right I am. I can't wait to see where Ike takes this story.

This manga was absolutely wild. I mean completely and totally wild and I loved every single panel. Is it for everyone? Nope. I will be very mindful of who I rec this to because for some it will be too much. What I loved about it was the hidden sweetness that you don’t expect to see going into it. There were so many cute relationships that I smiled the entire time. This manga is a laugh out loud joy ride that I couldn’t put down. I literally cannot wait to get my hands on volume 2!

I can only explain this with a temporary state of insanity on my part. I am super tired and in a zombie-like state.
This manga is absolutely ridiculous, meaning the story and it's exactly what the title says. The longer I think about it, the funnier I find the whole thing, I still have to chuckle inside.
The drawings are pretty good, the characters beautiful.
Definitely not high literature even the dialogues are rather boring, but for the idea and the art at hand alone it's a good book.

Surprisingly Sweet
This was my first foray into Yaoi manga and I was expecting something crude but this was sweet really tastefully done.
Eight clans compete every four years to compete for the throne. This competition takes the form of one-on-one battles between selected clan champions, with battles continuing until one of the competitors ejaculates, at which point that competitor is declared the loser.
The eight clans are nicely developed with bits of lore about them revealed before each match, and all the competitors are noble and surprisingly wholesome, given the nature of their confrontations. The art is great with the large cast of champions easily recognizable, and the action scenes (of which there are many) are easy to follow.
This book is labelled Volume One and I'm hopeful there will be another published and that an English translation will eventuate.
Lots of fun and very recommended.

any review less than five stars is completely wrong. this is a complete sex filled masterpiece and I will not bear a wrong word about a manga that features dick armor and dick swordplay.
would give more stars if I could.

Thanks to everyone who purchased Shinigami in April and May so I can use that sweet, sweet royalty cash to purchase Dick Fight Island!
Yes, this is exactly what it looks like.
As for the review, TheMarySue explained it better than I ever could: https://www.themarysue.com/dick-fight...

3.5 stars - This was as campy, wacky, and surprisingly heartwarming as I had been told. I did think the action scenes were difficult to follow (in contrast to the "action" scenes which were very easy to follow)

some dude leaving his isolationist dick fight island for a college rumspringa and returning four years later to completely unravel the fabric of their society because his roommate taught him what a prostate is…is Extremely funny

Put this one on the list of "books I wouldn't have thought to pick up if not for work." Dick Fight Island is basically what it sounds like - a battle manga about guys waging war with their wangs, albeit perhaps not in the way you're thinking. Then again, it's published by SuBLime, so maybe it's exactly the way you're thinking - because if you've ever read a shounen battle manga and thought, "Gee, I love all of this homoerotic subtext," then you are about to become one very, very happy reader.
And you know what? It's actually kind of fun. It's not my usual thing, but it has a good sense of humor about its ludicrous factor (in fact, I'd argue that it's deliberately silly), and there are a couple of genuinely sweet romance subplots. (Plus it's largely uncensored, which will make a difference to some readers.) I wouldn't suggest it for everyone, but if you're into goofy BL, this is a surprising amount of insane fun.

Listen. We all know what we're getting into when we picked this up. Was is good? Not really. But was it entertaining? Absolutely. Will I be reading the rest of the series? Probably.

This yaoi really said: "Don't fight with your words, fight with your dick!"
And it was glorious.
And it was glorious.

Bonkers
The story is a bit mad. They've all trained for the tournament but are strangely innocent. The art is gorgeous and while there is a big cast, it's easy to tell them apart and get a grasp of their personalities

This BL is a little crazy. It’s centered around an island tournament where the first one to climax wins—this produces crazy dick armor and “subversive methods” that are insane and definitely entertaining. Happy Pride!
