tsukineko's manga / #Rape(214)

Apparently, this can compete with Harada's most twisted... Sounds good then lol!

I feel the need to read this, to see which side of the comments section I'm in agreement with lol. Apparently, this is quite realistic, (apart from the rape survivor falling in love with their rapist thing). It's apparently different from other manga that use the same trope, though, in that the rapist makes a sincere, thorough and continuous attempt to apologise and redeem himself. And when I say continuous, I mean that he does so for 10 chapters straight, right until the end of the manga. I think that's pretty much unheard of in yaoi, so at the very least that's a plus point (or maybe a star?) from me. Note: From some of their other works, I know that this mangaka can do bittersweet realism well, so I'm hoping that this'll be more of the same...

Alpha yakuza leader buys Omega to make his babies... and romance presumably ensues...

I saw a page of this that depicted the aftermath of a rape, and it was truly heart-rending, as well as beautifully drawn. So even though the story does seem pretty cliché, and although it apparently drags a bit in the middle, I still want to read it. Also, the theme is quite compelling to me: whether or not one can escape one's destiny...
