For those who navigate the vast seas of the manga world, few titles are as unapologetically direct as "Breasts Are My Favorite Things in the World!" (known in Japan as *Sekai de Ichiban Oppai ga Suki!*). Created by the prolific and talented Wakame Konbu—the creative mind behind *The Great Jahy Will Not Be Defeated!*—this series is a masterclass in how to blend high-octane ecchi comedy with genuine, heartwarming Yuri (Girls’ Love) development.
The Premise: A Bold Proposition
The story centers on Chiaki Ichihara, a high school girl who possesses an obsession that is as singular as it is intense: she absolutely loves breasts. While many protagonists might hide such a fixation, Chiaki wears her heart (and her hands) on her sleeve. Her world revolves around the aesthetic and tactile appreciation of the female form, but there is only one person she truly desires to "study": her childhood friend, Hana Harumi.
Hana is the perfect foil to Chiaki’s chaotic energy. She is soft-spoken, easily flustered, and happens to be quite well-endowed. The plot kicks into gear when Chiaki, unable to contain her impulses any longer, bluntly asks Hana to let her touch her breasts. In a surprising turn of events—and perhaps fueled by her own hidden feelings—Hana agrees, albeit under the condition that it remains their little secret. What begins as a series of "favors" quickly evolves into a complex, comedic, and surprisingly sweet exploration of their relationship.
Demographic and Genre: More Than Just Fan Service
While the title might suggest a simple "borderline" hentai, the series is firmly rooted in the Seinen demographic. Originally serialized in *Monthly Comic Cune*, it targets an older youth/adult male audience, but it has garnered a massive following among Yuri enthusiasts of all genders.
As a Seinen title, it benefits from a certain level of maturity in its humor. It doesn't rely on accidental "trips and falls" but rather on the deliberate, often absurd dialogue and the psychological tug-of-war between the characters. It sits comfortably at the intersection of Ecchi, Comedy, and Slice of Life, utilizing the "Girls' Love" element not just as a gimmick, but as the emotional backbone of the narrative.
Key Themes: Obsession, Consent, and Connection
At its core, the manga explores several fascinating themes:
1. The Honesty of Desire: Chiaki is a refreshing protagonist because she lacks the typical "tsundere" hesitation. Her honesty about what she likes creates a comedic engine that never stops. However, the manga subtly explores the boundaries of this obsession, showing that Chiaki’s feelings for Hana eventually transcend the physical.
2. The Evolution of Yuri: Unlike many "Class S" or "pure" Yuri titles that focus on tragic longing, this series is celebratory. It treats the attraction between girls as something vibrant and joyful. The "fan service" serves the character dynamics, highlighting the intimacy and trust growing between the leads.
3. Body Positivity and Comfort: Through Wakame Konbu’s soft, rounded art style, the manga portrays various body types with a sense of appreciation. It emphasizes comfort and the "healing" nature of physical touch, turning what could be a lewd premise into something strangely wholesome (often referred to by fans as "wholesome lewdness").
Why It Stands Out
What makes *Breasts Are My Favorite Things in the World!* a must-read for connoisseurs is Wakame Konbu’s signature comedic timing. The facial expressions are legendary—ranging from Chiaki’s "predatory" gleam to Hana’s soul-leaving-her-body embarrassment. The supporting cast, including other girls with their own specific "preferences," adds layers to the world, ensuring the gag never feels stale.
In conclusion, if you are looking for a manga that combines the high-energy antics of a Seinen comedy with the genuine romantic progression of a Yuri series, this is it. It is a bold, hilarious, and ultimately endearing look at two friends discovering that sometimes, the thing you love most in the world is the person standing right in front of you.
