While the concept and the story line itself are rather ridiculous, I still enjoy this manga. Yes, they could have met outside of school and saved themselves a bunch of unnecessary drama, but then we wouldn't have this little gem to read! haha. Let's just appreciate the story for what it is: SMUUUUUTTT
I found this manga a bit strange and hard to follow even despite it's short length. Two of the chapters were uploaded incorrectly, and not only that, the story line itself seemed disjointed and didn't really make much sense. I finished reading and found myself thinking "what exactly was the point of this?" nobody had clear motivation or desires. And what was with the uke's obsession with his "dad"? I feel like the mangaka was hinting at a one sided crush of some sort but never really elaborated on it (or anything, really)
So is it weird of me to say I loved the short story about the high heels?? haha. I'm one of those people who believe everyone should wear whatever the heck they want no matter what gender.
And you gotta admit that big beefy guy was rockin those heels and jeans WAY better than most women! FIERCE AS FUCK! lol
This story would have captivated me MUCH more if the mangaka hadn't gone with the typical "rape= love" theme that so many yaoi manga suffer from. If someone was blackmailing me to keep their silence by forcing me to suck their dick and then allowing them to fondle and then RAPE me, I highly doubt I would fall for them over time.
Can anyone else on this website really say they want someone else to rape them like that? Keep in mind I'm not talking about a 'rape role play/fantasy' with their lover. I'm talking about straight up violation of your body without your consent. Would you fall in love with your rapist?
Also keep in mind that I'm aware that both of the men in this story had twisted/complicated feelings towards one another all along. But no matter what the situation is the seme still had NO right to force himself on the uke. If he wanted his attention then why not just SAY SOMETHING?? Raping your crush doesn't exactly scream 'I love you'
I totally agree! I'm so tired of this kind of manga, where the seme rapes the uke because they "love" them, and even though the uke hates it he ends up falling in love with his rapist. Ugh! That's not love, it's just sick and twisted...
Yeah I totally agree with you! Thank goodness I've read the comments before reading this manga.
Whoever said that rape is THE way to express your feelings?!?! ヽ(`Д`)ﾉ
You're the only one who said the true, I totally agree with you. I can't stand yaoi with rape-love, if you want to express your feelings you don't have to use rape....and when the uke "fell in love" this isn't love but Stoccolma'syndrome syndrome (╬￣皿￣)凸
Sorry for my bad English, I'm not a native
I think you have missunderstood slightly. The uke was already in love with the seme way before the rape. The intrest was definitly there already before the blackmailing. So this is far from your typisk rape=love story and more rape doesnt nessecary means the love dies. Whitch is actually really realistic. This manga is diffrent than most I've read, it is very, very deep and pshycological. Amazing.
I haven't misunderstood anything. I stated that the characters had complicated feelings all along. I was making a point: rape and manipulation aren't okay under any circumstances. Even if you love someone they can still technically rape you if you're saying no. Rape is rape. I wasn't confused by the situation at all. I fully understand.
And for the record, I'm not irritated by your comment or anything. I just want to get my point across without anyone assuming I'm some kind of small minded yuppie. I'm more than open to discuss matters rationally.
Ah, right. I interpreted your comment as if you meant the the love was a result of the rape. Sorry then, for the misunderstanding on my part.
Of course sexual assault of any kind is completely despicable, and wether a victim has feelings of love for the perpetrator or not has nothing to do with the act. Is that even being questioned by anyone this day and age? But technically? That sounds so wrong to me, rape is rape and it doesn't get any better or less brutal or damaging by being preformed by your loved one, actually it most likely makes it way worse for most ppl. But then again, one has to separate reality from fiction. I can enjoy some rape-play in mangas, actually I love it. Usually not this more brutal kind, but the story is so good.
Since English isn't my first language I'm not quite clear on what you mean with the end of your comment. What does yuppie mean?
A yuppie is basically rich, educated person who looks down on everyone no matter what.
Aha, thanks for the explanation ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
I'm a former member of various human rights orga for more than 15 years. we know almost all countries problems. sorry to tell you this. this is not about any fantasy. Japan's eternal problem from ancients times: sexual crimes. even the government doesn't take seriously sexual crimes. manga/animes fans are the most ignorants about Japan's dark problems. unlike most countries. japanse society give a green light for it. japan is a fave tourists place of pedos and sexual perverts. these mangakas are showing ones of japan eternal problems. sad but true... this is not a yaoi thing but a problem in all genres.

Lost causes. Japanese have already dismissed them.
You gotta hand it to that seme: he was straightforward about his intentions without being some kind of violent rapist. PLUS he used Wikipedia to get himself informed about how to please his partner before going at it! hahahaha.
Agree! Even though he informed himself about how to please his partner WHiLE he was going at it xD
The first seme wasn't exactly my cup of tea. To be completely honest neither was the doctor (simply because he shoved his dick up that kid without any explanation beforehand). The first seme came across worse than a sadist in my opinion. When you're dealing with a middle school aged boy, do you really think he's gonna understand the mind games of an adult? Not to mention the piercing was just.... WRONG! Shota doesn't bother me, it's the abusive semes that get to me.
I agree with you on that. Well specialy that kaiya Guy I sooooo don't like him (▰˘◡˘▰)
It's kinda funny how almost everyone agrees that the uke in this story isn't even needed! Haha. I'm much more interested in the other two guys. They have this vibe between them that could totally be developed into something downright sexxxy.
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE CHEMISTRY, BABY! lol
I'm no longer surprised at some of the stories I manage to come across when it comes to yaoi. I've learned that rape is a very common theme (as well as "dub-con"). Does it bother me? Not always. Did THIS story bother me? Eh, not really. I've read way worse before!
As for the characters, did anyone else think of Nagisa from Free!? hahaha. He's the ultimate sweetheart in the anime but anyone who's really into the show is convinced he's actually a gun carrying hardcore "thug seme" thanks to his 'dubbed' version in "50% off". So the characters personality switch in this manga TOTALLY reminded me of Nagisa. If anything that's what I found most amusing while I was reading this. hahaha!
It's safe to say that Kenta's real name is probably "Kenta Shittyasscuntwhoreface". What a sad excuse for a 'friend'! People who have the nerve to treat others like that deserve to lose their balls.
Or to have them chopped off with a rusty knive
(╬￣皿￣)凸
Jesus fucking christ, your comment made me laugh so hard :))
and i was about to consider his fake 'feelings' GOOD THING I'M TWISTED ENOUGH TO LOVE THE RAPE and uncle lol
Why on EARTH does there need to be another stereotypical "bitchy female" in this manga!? I already want to smack the living hell out of her. What right does she have to start yelling at Taichi and saying he's good for nothing? BITCH! AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FOR YOU IN THIS MANGA!
Also, nothing makes me more irritated than watching the main characters have a misunderstanding and whatnot and neither one will grow a pair and TALK about their issues. It's even MORE irritating when another character becomes the villainous wedge between them. Plus, I feel like I'm missing something... why are the two boys at odds all of the sudden? I thought things were okay between them now??
