I think it's no exaggeration to say that with this manga Harada won a prize for the most messed up rape scene in yaoi (or at least is in the top three), but I can't be sure as I'm not such an expert ;)

I have mixed feelings about the end of the story. According to raws it seems that it's probably the most 'happy' ending of all Harada's works I've read so far, which is quite surprising given the circumstances. I mean... after all that shit Asaichi recovered pretty quickly. I think that in the reality he shouldn't even be thinking about sex - in real life he should be an emotional wreck. But damn I don't really care about a realism. I think this story is fucked up enough and readers deserve some comfort. Bad ending would be really too much for me so I'm satisfied that Asaichi stopped being a mean asshole and started to treat Yoru as a real lover.
Well, I read that some time ago so I know what you mean ;) That's why I wrote 'at least in the top three' because I reminded myself these djs and also the other manga - Shiiku Gakari Rika which is also messed up as hell.

I kind of remember seeing much more disturbing in some bara, but sorry cant remember the title - worked to hard to forget it . Harada definitevely makes it look realistic for me, and I hope they will add some age werification procedures for reading yaoi on internet some day......
