blackjacaranda's manga / #psychological(46)

A twincest wit superiority complex. Twins brother, the younger one always wanted to be like the older. He imitated everything. But one day, the younger said he wanted to touch the older, but getting rejected and said weird. After that, they divert from each other. The younger becomes so distant and quite the opposite of the older. The older is a top student, while his brother is in need of extra study. But someday, the younger asks to make a deal with the older, that he will surpass the older's score. If he make it, the older has to listen to what the younger says. It's interesting. The art is amazing and the plot seems like it will lead to psychological things. I mean, I caught a glimpse of that fucked-up-eyes in the last pages of this manga. Can't wait for more. EDIT: Second chapter is here, I think the art is getting worse so I lessen the score for art to 8.5. And here, the younger brother seems serious about their deal so he studies a lot. Just skip everything, he's succeeded being rank first at the exam, beating his older brother who is placed at the second rank. Okay, seems like we will see the butt sex very soon after this. 8.5 9 8.5 8.5

One word: AMAZING. I don't know this manga could be this amazing. It has everything, great art, strong lead character, twisted plot, perfectly planned storyline, hot guys, geniuses, just everything. Fon and Jacques really make a great couple. I know from the tag that this has some bromance vibes but I can't believe this has so much deeper. It's like BL with no kiss scene. I mean, there are a lot--A LOT--of moments where they show affections even without saying I love you. For example, when Fon tries to suicide, and then Jacques saved him. There are confession. "I hate it when you're not here." "I don't want to go back to that room without you." "There's only you..." "I won't let you go..." It's obvious, right? Jacques really loves Fon, from whichever side people will look. The intimacy is just too much to make my heart clenched. I just hope at least they would kiss at least one, passionate kiss. Or not, a single chaste kiss. They're too real it hurts too see this manga isn't even tagged as shounen ai. And I'm not talking about the romance only. The plot is great, about artificial beings. In Ilegenes, an island which is resemble as Sodom from being so malicious, some people try to purify this island from that crime. So here it is the lead main character: Fon, begins his battle. He's got everything: super good-looking face, and also perfect brain. He also has such a good attitude and personality traits. But then, everything becomes so twisted when he learns the truth. Yes. Chapter 23 and 24 are so much a turn around for this manga. A lot of truth being told, and even Fon's personality becomes so twisted and the changes. But then there's still Jacques. He's got his back. He turns the troubled and bewildered Fon to his sanity. Then... everything will continue as they face the battle ahead. 10 10 10 10

I've never hated any female character as much as I hate Gabriel. Seriously, that girl is just a fucking annoying bitch. I've hoped this manga will be better and even have more and more BL-ish moments, but I'm wrong. Why does it have to be that girl. I hate her, so arrogance, so annoying. Just know your place bitch. And I also have some complaints about the art designs. Yes, overall it's the same, but not for Fon's. His eyes are supposed to be bigger than in here. He looks more mature now. Not that I'm complaining about his age, I know he's growing up, but his aura as an uke is decreasing! Oh, also that girl's appearance is just like a copy-cat of Fon's. Seriously, I hate that bitch to death. She takes a liking to Jacques, acting so lovestruck it's so damn annoying. Jacques is only for Fon. Full stop. I'm so irritated by the decreasing amount of BL moments. There's only one as I remember, that's when Jacques was having a nightmare about Fon committing suicide, and he couldn't save him. Yes, afterward he's in fear of losing Fon. Hugging so tightly and never let go... "Are you alive? You're alive right?" Oh goodness, that's so deep. And then, when Fon has no confidence in attacking Gabby, Jacques says "I will protect you," GOODNESS! a single but honest "I will protect you" is way more powerful than ten of "I love you"s! Seriously! I wish to see more, yes. I'm still hoping for the better chapter. Nicholas is now siding Gabby, and if it's true then in the future he will be the villain in the novel. Yes, I've read some spoiler of the novel. It's sad that Fon and Jacques are no longer together in their mission after Fon's elected as a president, even Jacques says that he doubts Fon... Fon, who feels betrayed, of course can't believe that. But then, Fon protects him, twice, taking bullets for him. Yes, he still loves him, how couldn't he? This pairing will be the death of me. Please, just make Gabby die! I hate her gut! Such a disturbance for Fon's and Jacques's relationship! 9.5 9 9 (I hate Gabby to death) 9

I've got nothing to say. It's just too dark to my liking. I understand that this comes from 1990-something year, so the art is helpless, but the story... Okay, for those who love dark theme like this, it's gonna be a great manga, but not for me. I can't handle it. The first story was okay tho, the boy knows that the teacher has a doll similar like him to have sex with, and one day he replace it with himself. Pretty good since it ends an happy end. The second... I just can't. The child is beyond repair. He's got a rather psychopathic side in himself by brutally murder a mouse. His father wants him to be a top doctor in the future so he brings him scalpels and surgery tools to practice himself. Then one day he discovers that his father has an affair with another man. The boy watches them have sex. Then his angry mother comes, holding a scalpel, and coming into the room where his husband and the affair having sex. At the same time, there's a thief, holding a huge knife about to attack the boy. Then... scene moves to the mother who succeeded killing those two. The boy, not feeling anything, asking if those two already being a corpses as subjects (I forgot the name), his mother says yes and points at the thief, saying that that man is also for subjects. Then the boy kills the thief. Creepy, right? Yes. Especially there's a scene of explicit intestine and other human organs at the beginning of this chapter. The third story is just an ordinary. A teacher loves his student secretly, and somehow he murders his cat (I don't know the intention) when the boy is in his room, checking on him. I don't really like since the conflict is so flat. Okay. Enough is enough. 6.5 7.5 6 7

This is way better than what I expected. Yes, I've felt something fishy about that boy, and it's true. A truck driver gets his day bad, and then he meets a boy who asks for a ride to the ocean. Then, they visits a hotel. The truck guy already wanting to get some fuck with that boy, but then he smells something rotten from that boy's bag. When he opens it, it was a head. A head from a dead body. Then the news keeps informing about the tale of that serial killer who is actually that boy, who murdered his lover, and shot his family. And then here he comes. Naked from the bad, pinning that truck man on the bed and whispering "now we can be happy." Damn, creepy yet so exciting! 8 8.5 8.5 8.5
