YaoiLover's manga / #Bartender(3)

Story was so hard to follow. Events were out of sequence, almost like flashbacks. However, it came off as if the scans were terribly out of order. I didn't get the sequences with the women at all. They didn't fit the overall story. Seemed unnecessary and even more confusing. Artwork and the relationship between the main characters was good, though.

Interesting storyline. I felt sorry for Yuuya being swindled by his former friend. I was also relieved for him that he was the seme in the story, and wasn't raped (as Sake-san had mentioned). Their couple dynamic is good. I was heartbroken when I read chapter 3! WHY?! Why didn't Sake have security with him? And such a flimsy reason for it, from that bastard! Ugh! I was disgusted. Later on, I just knew the video would be brought to light somehow. I figured at the very least, it would be used to blackmail Sake-san. I'm not a fan of overly violent sequences, but I think the retribution for chapter 3 would have been more severe, as in punishable by death! That's what I would have done. At least put someone on the hospital! And how did Yuuya get away unscathed, after throwing that drink?! Not realistic either. I think the more likely victim in chapter 3 would have been Yuuya, though it's sad either way. I would have like the relationships to develop s bit further, but this was a good read overall. Maybe there is a follow-up in the works.

Kyousuke and Shizuma work together at a bar, as trainer and trainee, respectively. Shizuma, a virgin, has a crush on Kyousuke, who "hate[s] virgins"! Eventually, the two engage in a Dom/sub kind of relationship, where Kyousuke teases Shizuma sexually, without allowing any penetration. Will they ever go all the way?
