mangasaeki's manga / #psychological(11)

This was great save for some of the holes and plot rushing. Holes were pointed out by the scanners and Rei's disorder was thoroughly explained by them, which I'm glad they did. They also warned about how the plot does take creative liberty towards the end and strays away from medical accuracy. What really got me though was the rushing in the first volume. Yuuma deserved better in terms of allowing himself to express his feelings and CONSENT. Not once did he actually say he wanted anything until he just accepted Rei's very rape-like advances. Mangaka also just really rushed them into a relationship but took the time to end it thoughtfully. I just wish that the first volume wasn't so rapey and stereotypical yaoi-like because the second volume and the end of the first we so good. Anyway, you get my point.

Prequel to Chou To Hana. Explains the womb tattoo and backstory of the seme. It's sad and twisted but explains his demeanor nonetheless.

First story is a bit twisted. Second is massive age gap.

The story was great save for a few minor things. Some things didn't quite connect for me when it came to the development of their relationship, but aside from that, the story was very interesting. It's the first time I've read something yaoi/BL related that had a serious police plot. Good read!

Great story, but the author dropped it so it's actually incomplete.

This would've been 5 stars if it wasn't for how rapey/manipulative the seme was in the first volume. It ended very nicely though, so I will give it that!

First story was oof... the art was too beautiful for how psychologically fucked up that was. Mc developed Stockholm syndrome SO fast and justified the abuse he was experiencing until the end. Honestly, this could be inspo for KillingStalking.

Absolutely a fucking rollercoaster of a story. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I honestly read this all in one sitting and truly didn't get tired once. The story has so many ups and downs with twists and bends and ends rather bitter sweet, which is to be expected of a horror/thriller manga. The art was stunning and instils a great deal of emotion with few words, and for that, the story-telling is 10/10 for me. With that being said, the story was so well thought out and executed that I was honestly at a loss for words. The characters are so deep and endearing and redeemable, it's borderline insane in a good way. Everyone had their role, too. The amount of time that the manga takes place in is really crucial to the development of the characters as well. Just wow, it'll be a long time before I read such a fantastic story again. Cannot recommend this enough. If you can stand some gore and nudity, then even if you're not a thriller/horror fan, still give this a read. I nearly cried at so many moments, and I NEVER cry over any manga. I get emotional but never so far as to drop tears over it. SO GOOD, UGH.

What a really interesting and thought-provoking story. Mangaka leaves you confused almost until the end and honestly, the story-telling was really well done. The concept is unlike anything I've ever read although I am semi-versed with mpd. It also had kind of a Bonnie and Clyde element to it as well which made it even more interesting. Obviously, their actions shouldn't be condoned in normal society but in BL world, Yuki's father totally had it coming to him. Great read, I'm not too sure why the rating isn't higher. Although that may be due to the fact that in the first half of the manga, there is clearly something wrong with Yuuta and Tomohisa talks in such a way that makes it seem like he's taking advantage of him (and he is but also not really because it's complicated.) Either way, very engaging and provocative! Highly recommend.
