WTF

The level of self-righteous officious hate over the last few days has been extreme even by the cesspool standards of this website. WTF is up, people? Has the universe pissed in everyone's cornflakes? So this offends your delicate sensibilities. You can't just stop reading and move on. No, you have to turn around and piss on everyone else. Feel better now?

You obviously did not understand the themes running through this novel. The reason that's it's so good is because yea, the characters are well drawn and the sexy scenes are awesome. But more importantly the story line is so well constructed. It is meant to be twisted l. That's its genre. The writer cleverly uses symbols and the 'caste' rank of the characters to represent society. Of course it's not for everybody but to be honest I've never come across a bL manga, or story linein fact, like this. It's a unique plot. the sad bit about the plot and all the symbolism and metaphor shit is that it's true. Each character represents a different member of society. But hey don't worry. it's not everybody. It's meant to be a very dark and twisted story portraying a capitalistic society. I personally think that this is the best BL manga I've ever come across. Ok I'll stop ranting now ahaha...

"It's meant to be a very dark and twisted story portraying a capitalistic society"...Exactly. I'm very pleased to see that an amount of people, despite the fact that it's a manga and it's yaoi and that every aspect of what makes this comic attractive is having a 9,5/10 (erotic, good art, etc,) it can be read between all that what it makes this amazing work so interesting, through the eyes and feelings of these rotten young people is what the society is suffering these days... the cult to the vanity, to the lust, to the power for the power itself...sometimes I think that certain people can't deal with either novels, movies, something that it's a slap to our faces, because they don't want a reminder that the reality is that, as a society we're very sick and rotten to the core. We can see it every day at the news and maybe some people is tired of that and see in this thing an escape from that reality.

There're others like me, that we can deal with it and it's just like "oh well, I think that reality surpass the fiction so many times,but how interesting is this story, still" The characters are flawless and every one of them is, what the previous reader has said, a representation of the capitalism and how much damage can do to us for the benefit of a very few.

At least everyone has the choice to either go on or drop it. It's up to you.

So much better love <3

I did actually read other comments that have brought up the symbolism and themes that have shown up throughout the manga. Symbolically, I suppose, the author did well in that regard. What got on my nerves the most was how there were many commenters who romanticize this sort of thing.

I don't believe romanticizing is the correct word to use here. Admiring would be better suited. Readers are admiring the symbolism/plot/metaphors/characterization/etc. Basically what I am trying to say is that the effort put into this manga is of 'high quality' for a BL manga. For example naruto and death note are considered as the "higher quality/better written" mangas. The same thing is happening here. It is the same in novels. Personally I admire this manga because I don't view it as just a BL manga. I view it as art or having literary value since it teaches readers. I, myself, have a couple of books published and I admire the creativity and effort that Mrs Ogawa Chise put in this piece of work. It was perfectly executed.

Isn't being twisted and very very wrong the whole point of this manga? Exploring the dark side the structure of the high school caste system and all that.
