Escape into Oblivion
Love the hide and seek game that the 2 MCs play which became the basic of their drama. Woojin who always runaway from his problem got chased relentlessly by a mysterious man named Hwon. All the drama ensued which made readers emotional and confused on who we should rooting for, reached a shocking twisted revelation that revealed that Hwon was actually an obsessive friend from childhood, so obsessive that after years being left he fought his way, literally killed people, just to get Woojin in the palm of his hands. At the end I still don't know how to feel for their relationship. Above the rotten obsessions and traumas, they try to seek love and build their happiness. Can't complain, both characters are equally twisted, just hope that whatever lies ahead their love would never hurt themselves and other people. Overall, very pleasant read, full of twists and turns, suspensive and dramatic.

First, the conflict was spectacular. Second, the characters were developed and have personality. The artwork superb. Sexy times amazing. I like how sensei was able to use the omegaverse theme and woven it with the intricate relationship of incest. Both Seiji and Aiji do love each other, and as most twins in yaoi story, the love they felt was deeper transcend romantic and brotherly love. But circumstances put them together as mates and made the inevitably inseparable. Out of choice and also because of love, they must stay together to survive but it still hard on them because they're brothers. Finding Towa was a salvation for them, not just someone who could accept who they are and their relationship, but also someone who they could have on their own but also shared together. Its twisted but acceptable; really love the aftertaste of that. Hope there're more. I still want to see Towa become Seiji's mate, and Towa and Aiji becoke pregnant and have babies. I need more omegaverse babies. Ain't that the reason this universe is created, so that men can get pregnant and have babies? So why there are no babies in sight? EDIT: Okay, hewwo? Breaking Free #7 "Claimed" by A.M. Arthur was also as great as this one. A polyamory relationship between 3 people who love each other.

Sometimes Ogawa-sensei could draw some fluff, but not this. This some fucked up real incest, tragedy, psychological, smut shitstorm. But goddamn this is great everybody need to read.
The Inheritance of Aroma
I remember reading this a long time ago and it hasn't even been finished. Now that I've read the final... wow what a fucking ending... tragedy huh... I've somehow always rooted for the brothers to be together, they know their feeling for each other, they just don't want to see it. Now that when the cats are out of the bag the older had to go, and only when he finally made peace with himself and his feelings. Really cruel. And btw the son, he unfortunately had to have a father and uncle like that now he developed his fathers kink. Eager to know his story tho, whis there is a spinoff or smth
J no Subete
If I could I woud give this a 13/7 The story was incredibly, beautifully elaborate; while still able maintaining the japanese yaoi aspect, the story was well informed of American culture at the time of setting. It felt so real and believable. The personality of J was also pitiable able also admirable; being in a non-supportive environment while being gay/transgender one would definitely developed a trauma but him able to stand up, trying his best to live as himself (even tho he failed several times) he finally achieved what most people actually can't: having a family that love him for who he is. I guess people are still confuse of what's actually going on with J. My take is that J loves men. Living in the 50-60s where homosexuality is still not accepted, it is a common perception that only women could love men. Growing up needing the love from men, he idolized Marlyin Monroe who at the time was someone who could charm all men. It's not that he doesn't want to be woman, but i wouldn't group him as a transgender either bcs his wanting of becoming a woman doesn't stem from his hatred in his physical appearance but more bcs that's the only way he thought he could charmed and getting loved by men. All in all, this was such a wonderful reading. Definitely in my best yaoi list; it's a rare thing to find auch a difficult topic in yaoi
