Otomen (vol. 2) / Aya Kanno / 187 pgs.

You really can't take this series seriously.  The main character Asuka Masamune, is a guy who loves "girly" things, ie cooking, cleaning, sewing, cute girl toys, girl comics, etc.  In this volume, his mother returns from working overseas (it's amazing how many parents in these Japanese comics are always conveniently gone 90% of the time).  Asuka's mother suffers from fainting attacks which may kill her if it happens to many times.  Of course, she only wants her son to be 100% masculine and if he is anything else she faints.  To make matters worse, Asuka's mother has arranged an engagement between Asuka and the daughter of one of her very important clients.
