Teehee. Credits to the mangaka, maybe?
Definitely （￣へ￣）
I feel the same way. This is so much more unbalanced than most dark stories. Also the ukes are fleshed out as characters and we feel for them. They aren't just bodies in a mob--most of us are rooting for them.
we feel for azusa because we saw his true self,he is broken,completely broken,and doesn't need karino to destroy him even more. He is wearing a mask. We saw his mother,how she was treated by other men,and for me it's difficult to think of azusa as karino's bi*** cuz that's what his mother is and that's what he hated the most,but now,he's like his mother. He doesn't want to study(remember kusakabe advice,and his mother's) because he knows there is no future for people like him,he wanted to exploit other people before being exploited by them,it was the only possibility for him. On the other hand,we have Karino,the son of a minister,and the one who is having fun while playing the game. He is the king inside the school but also outside,and he wants to break azusa simply for fun. That's why is difficult to like it,we don't have that atmosphere of love,we feel the abuse,because we know what Karino doesn't,the fact that azusa is broken and doesn't need to be broken by someone else. And that's why I love this manga so much,you can feel the pain,especially the pain of azusa. Anyway,I enjoy twisted,dark mangas too '◡')ﾉ
Well said Kiss. It's always good to read thoughts of another Azusa fan.
thank you ((:
I was so distraught by this manga I had never actually noticed these few details. But I totally agree with you with every word. You're right...there has no atmosphere of love. For most yaoi manga, rape is used as a violent and impulsive expression of obsession or love, or used as a means of corrupting or defiling the other. But no, Azusa was already broken the moment Karino tried to destroy him completely. I think it's unsavory. It pains me to see Karino take away every shred of Azusa's dignity.
But thanks for this. I'll keep this in mind while reading the next few updates.
Someone tell me why, even though I've read so much other sadistic manga with rape and violence (and enjoyed it), I can't stomach this. I just feel so bad for Azusa and Atsumu. Why is that even though Karino's totally my type I just think he's a sociopath I wanna punch in the face. For you people who say that the people who couldn't take chapter 8 are those who aren't used to twisted, dark and violent manga, especially those from Ogawa, I beg to differ.
