Take on Me

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

Take on Me is an 18-chapter sex-comedy manga written and illustrated by Takamura Sessyu; collected in two volumes, following a fairly loose chronology. The story follows a small, skinny high-schooler named Tomonori Tsuda and his sexual adventures with his class's Huge Schoolgirl Hikaru Ohno. After accidentally photographing an upskirt of her, he half-heartedly blackmails her into sex, to which she enthusiastically agrees. Guilty for blackmailing her, he tells her she shouldn't have to have sex with him- only to find out that his blackmail didn't scare her in the first place, and that she was interested in him all along. From that point forward, their relationship progresses personally and sexually in this manga. Along for the ride are Hikaru's older sister (who is apparently 26, but with hormone deficiency), some sworn rivals, and a pair of bisexual twins whom Tsuda loses his virginity to - but he doesn't want to admit it.

Renamed Domin8 Me when it was released in North America to avoid confusion with the 1980s hit by A-ha (granted it was just one of MANY musical and movie references contained within the manga - particularly, the chapter titles).
