It was quite obvious from the start that if Jian Yi and Zhang XiXi will be getting closer to each other in 'that way' there is going to be some drama. Well, I think it's more realistic - they can't become an official couple immediately and live happily ever after. But we don't need to panic ;) I think that the way Zhang is treating Jian Yi in this chapter is meaningful enough :)
I really like art but I can't enjoy the plot at all because of characters. Uke's actions are stupid and unreasonable. I can't understand his way of thinking... He was afraid of confessing his feelings so it was better to have an abusive relationship with someone he don't even like? And both of brothers are jerks.
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 ;)
SPOLIERS ***
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.
Read her dj for gintama
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......
It sounds very similar to Feng Yu Jiu Tian, but with a woman as a mc... ;)
I guess that after seeing certain yaoi in 151 ch Zhan decided to open his mind for 'new experiences' :D. Well, joking aside, I think if he's going to brush Jian Yi off, it would be better not to ask anything. But I hope he knows it himself. If they're going to have a proper conversation it's obvious that everything is going to change. If Zhan will reject Jian officially (I hope not), there's no way they can go back to 'normal friends' relationship. It would be too painful and awkward :(
I have really bad feeling about it :( Rai uses his powers all the time and loses his life force. I just hope he won't be forced into eternal sleep at the end of the series. It would seriously break my heart...
that's what I been worry about him..that's why as much as possible I didn't want him to fight because he keep losing his life force. hmnp I don't why but I keep thinking why he needs to lose life force ..can he just be powerful without losing his life force
Well, it's more dramatic this way. Anyway I think if it's going to be 'bad end' for Rai it'll be too much drama. In Noblesse there's a good balance between serious and funny moments and I hope the end will also be like that, without any unnecessary tragedies.
I feel a bit sad. Why? I love this series and I like both Shingo and Kagami, but I'm disappointed lately. After all this problems they faced together they still can't be honest with each other and it seems they think that sex is better solution then honest conversation. I know that their conflicts and misunderstandings drive the plot of all mangas in the series, but I had enough of it. I think it's time for them to find a balance in this relationship. I guess it's normal that partners fight sometimes, but in their case it's a matter of insincerity and lack of trust. Well, I still have a hope they can fix it.
Agreed, the lack of communication is pissing me off. They should really develop as a couple and not have sex everytime they are insecure. They should actually talk.
That's what I've been saying with this particular pair! Talk already..communicate. I know shingo isn't used to relationships like this and kagami usually tried to communicate which ends in him getting hurt and frustrated at shingo hiding it thru sex, You would think after some time they would overcome this constant central issue...
Under these circumstances Karino will have an opportunity to play a role of brave knight, defending (princess) Azusa from villainous perverted teacher (evil magician or sth?). If it's going to be this way I can actually find myself liking him. Unfortunately, it's just a daydream. There's also a possibility that he'll turn out to be even worse dick and asshole than before. Time will tell. i hope I won't be disappointed.
I wonder, who's in a worse situation - Kasan or Lu Cang (Hua Hua You Long) and who's more sadistic - Igen or Jing (I think they deserve each other) :P
I think the couple fron HuaHua You Long is more... Extreme. But we are just at 3rd ch so let's wait and see(づ￣ ³￣)づ. I hope they fall in love with each other soon.
we will not see any "rapes" or extreme sex in this one. They fall in love very quickly and stay together, don´t sleep around with others. But we will se many hot smexy scenes with this two ;)
Well, it's better this way. Although I think Hua Hua You Long is great, I didn't like the fact that every sex scene was rape scene in the same time, so I'm relieved ;)
Yes. i think so too. I read Hua Hua You Long Novel, and I liked the story. But I prefer this story. There Love scenes are beautiful. You will see. But it has 64 chapters, so it takes time..
I can accept this kind of plot only
1. as a threesome ;)
2. if uke is going to be with number 2 host at the end (or some guy we don't know yet)
If it's going to be another rape --> love story I'll be seriously disappointed. I think that if uke is going to be with dark hair guy it'll be too typical. I just hope it won't be something like 'I loved you from the start so I raped you in the WC because I didn't have any better idea'...
I agree with you. But unfortunately I think it will be another rape - love story.(づ￣ ³￣)づ
Well, it's really common theme in yaoi genre ;( I usually don't like this kind of stories, so it must be really great for other reasons to make me accept it (for example Viewfinder or Hidoku Shinaide).
