Title: Fire Hot Aunt
Author: Katsuki Izumi
Genre: Manga
Rating: **
Review: The synopsis of Fire Hot Aunt is interesting: “Toru, who just became a high school student, ends up going to school and living with Sugako, who is his aunt and is also the same age as him. The super-beauty Sugako stirs up all kinds of trouble. What will Toru do…?!”
It turns out that Toru’s Grandmother gave birth at 50 to Sugako so she is his mother’s sister but also happens to be the same age as Toru which he finds a little disturbing as she acts more like an aunt than someone their age. I loved how Sugako is constantly seeing Toru through a lens that makes him seem like a baby rather than the teenager he is but they do have quite a strong relationship.
We soon learn that there is a reason behind Sugako moving in with her nephew and sister aka Toru and his mother. We learn that she was quite a delinquent and got into a lot of trouble in her old school so moved to make a new start. Sugako has major anger issues especially when it comes to people calling her old because she is Toru’s aunt. While this sets up a lot of interesting and comedic situations that is all this manga is about and as the series progresses it may get a little more serious but so now it was a quick and fun read but not much else.
