I love this manga and want it to keep going at least long enough for Souchi to admit to Morinanga and his family that he's really and truly in love with his kouhai.
As you move through the chapters you get a real feel for what a good translation brings to a story.
All the translators who work so hard so people like me can read stories like this deserve a heck of a lot more love and respect than they probably get.
I totally agree with you! <3
Read part II
Loved it!
Can't wait for more.
what is part 2 called
Part two has the same name, because it's just a continuation of the story.
Not sure why they haven't added it here...
It's worth reading if you don't mind visiting another site.
thx very much

Can't wait for part III
This manga is so uplifting that teenagers should read it. The message is powerful and inspiring.
Am I the only one who finds the idea that uke and seme are completely fixed roles that can never change as really, really annoying?
It's not only annoying; it's kind of insulting.
If you really care about the person you're with, then you learn to be flexible and you go out of your way to see/experience things from their point of view.
Respect means switching things around every once in a while!!!
I find it annoying as well, but I do not agree with everything you say.
I don't think you should have to force the other to switch. I mean, if they feel uncomfortable with it, then it's just wrong. To compare, take like in a heterosexual relationship, where the girl wants to use a strap-on on the guy. That's fine if they both are okay with trying it, but you shouldn't force the guy to do it.
Like, I wouldn't want to be force myself into a certain sexual situation just because my partner really wants to do it, when I obviously feel uncomfortable about it.
I don't think it's insulting to not want to do a certain sexual activity. Isn't respect about accepting what your partner likes and dislikes?
And if the uke doesn't want to keep being the bottom, I can just say they're not compatible. Then he should find a partner who IS willing to switch, if he can't live without that.
+1 like (lol)
I described exactly how I feel about this subject.
I have a gay friend who is versatile.
He told me about a cute guy he likes, but he is only a bottom, so he preferred not to date him, because that makes them incompatible.
In my ignorance, I told him: "why don't you try convincing him? Maybe he would like it..."
"Hmmm..." was his response. I knew I talked more than I had to, hahaha. "Has he tried it? Or maybe he did try it and didn't like it?".
Ughhh, yep, I'm going to think before talking, hahaha, his answer was: "it's not that easy".
So, I don't think that it has something to do with just being openminded, but your likings, and even when likings can change, there are some things that you would never like...
Actually, respect has nothing to do with "switching things around". Respect has to do with accepting what your partner is comfortable with, and caring more about their emotional well being than your own sexual gratification. If someone isn't into something, they shouldn't be coerced into trying it. There's nothing wrong with being strictly a top or strictly a bottom. Some people simply aren't interested in being in the other role, and that's fine.
Having said that, I am particularly fond of yaoi in which the lovers DO trade roles back and forth. It seems like those are hard to come by though. I read one rather cute story in which the uke told the seme that he wanted to try topping because he wanted to 'lose his virginity', and he had no intention of having sex with anyone else. It was ADORABLE. I wish I could remember what manga that was.
That exact story line occurs in: "Hima na no de Hajimete Mimasu", but in the end the seme refuses to go through with it.
That's one example of why that Sakyou Aya is one of my least favorite mangakas of all time. Her semes are the most disrespectful, selfish, and egotistical characters ever conceived and for some stupid reason she always portrays the ukes as running right back to them no matter how much abuse or humiliation they've been subjected to.
And while I kind of see your point, I still respectfully disagree. You should never expect your partner to do something you yourself are never willing to do. If you consider the act so painful and/or degrading that you can't even bear to try to it once, then you should never ask someone you care about to engage in the same behavior on a regular basis. That strikes me as incredibly sick and wrong for a whole host of reasons.
I still do not agree. I agree you shouldn't EXPECT something from someone you cannot do the same for but that ain't the point of what we're saying. And just because something is painful and/or degrading for someone, it doesn't mean they think it is for everyone else. Or do you think they do it with the intention of it being degrading and painful? For example, if I didn't like my hair being touched, I could still touch someone else's hair if they like it. And if they want to touch my hair, I'd like them to respectfully not to do it. If they can't deal with it, we're just not compatible. It's simply respecting each other's tastes.
Not talking about anyone in paticularly btw, just the subject.
Sorry, but I don't see a comparison of anal sex and hair touching as valid.
And I don't consider the problem to be that people have different tastes. If partners gravitate toward complimentary roles, then I would see no reason they would not stay within those roles on a regular basis.
What I take exception with is someone who outright refuses to even try doing something one time that they expect a person they supposedly care about to do for them on a regular basis.
What bothers me most about it is why the semes in yaoi typically refuse to consider bottoming for their partner. If an individual is refusing to be the uke because they perceive the act as degrading, painful, not masculine, etc... what they are basically devaluing their partner. They are saying it's fine for their partner to be degraded, suffer pain, and/or be feminized, but they themselves would NEVER allow that to be done to them.
I simply cannot respect or excuse that mentality.
That's perfectly valid if the uke does not enjoy being the bottom. There isn't a mentality of "it's okay for YOU to be degraded" if being the bottom is what your partner wants. For example, (since the hair touching comparison isn't valid for you), my husband enjoys being anally stimulated. I, however, do not. Even though he would be interested in doing that to me, he doesn't push me into it because he knows that I do not enjoy it. But i'm not going to refuse to do it to him, because I know he DOES like it, and there's no point in refusing him pleasure just because what he likes is something I don't want done to me. Is this making any sense? I'm not entirely sure I'm explaining my point of view very well.
Better yet it could be three movies.
Crimson Spell should be the Yaoi Lord of the Rings trilogy.
How amazing would that be?
Holy crap!!!!! That is the best idea I've read hands down! I would be the first one in line for that movie!!!!
Yes. Just yes. Please.
Anyone else surprised by how quickly things progressed in the latest update?
I totally wasn't expecting anything so racy.
I really like this manga, but half way through I started jonesing for cheese really bad!
Like if I didn't get my hands on some cheddar I was gonna die!
I'm running out of patience. I want to see Hayato make a move on Ryou sooo bad!
Please, please, please! Update soon with a big love scene for Hayato.
The rape devil is such a good big brother and his mom is so shifty, I'm still hoping she'll leave his little brother behind so they have to figure out how to raise him together.
They'd make a cute family.
