Itsuwari Triangle
Partly uncensored, mostly censored The seme dislocated the uke's right arm and raped him the second time. The first time was bondage. It's unsettling when there's this kind of violence, but I this naoya's so adorable although his other personality yuuya is abusive.... They are engineering students (all boys). Naoya's family is a complicated one. His mother killed herself when he was young and that caused him great trauma while his dad is a politician who doesn't spend much time with them. Yep, quite a complicated family. It's sad. Luckily enough, the uke has a mature personality and is willing to see him for who he is. Too bad the story isn't long and the translation isn't very clear, but still, this is a good compelling story even with all the serious social issues and sexual violence. *There's no sex with the original personality (naoya). Only the ones with the alter ego (yuuya). Kinda sad. But at least it was a good ending. 2017: 1v 5c BL Romance Yaoi Drama University Students Unrequited Love Blackmail Mature Themes Mental Health Conditions Dissociative identity disorder (DID) Abandonment Absent Parents Death of Loved Ones Dead Mother Dubious Consent Neglect Rape Suicide Suicidal

He dreamed of building a family once, with his boss’ mistress and her son Pil-gyun, but he’s had to pay dearly for coveting something that could never be his.

Except, this isn’t the child that Nanmu remembers. Pil-gyun is calculated, deadly, and obsessively in love with him. Although Nanmu knows he should put an end to this futile relationship, Pil-gyun’s tender words of love can’t help but tug at his heartstrings… Source: Lezhin BL Yaoi Full Color Manhwa Webtoons Action Drama Romance Smut Gangs Jopok Adoptive Father Turned Lover Cunning Male Lead Gangster Seme Gangsters Mafia Muscular Uke Obsession Obsessive Seme Age Gap Older Uke Younger Seme Pretty Male Lead Pretty Seme Pretty Uke Rape as a Background Story Rape as a Subplot Stepfather-Stepson Relationship Tattoos Mature Themes Pseudo Incest Sexual Abuse
MADK
High fantasy is definitely one of my favorite genres of all time. This one's very shocking to read but all-thrilling at the same time. The art is also on point and exquisite- quite extreme and yandere. Makoto is reborn as a demon and is taken to the demon world where he lives with the Archduke of Hell, J. Although it gets so violent (dark fantasy) with the heavy gore and horror, as well as the detailed body horror imageries, it doesn't overshadow Makoto and J.'s relationship (they still possess a good dynamic relationship - I think so far, I've only seen J. become violent towards Makoto twice coming from someone who's read up to chapter 5.5 vol 1). The mangaka really knows and decisively design their characters to be in certain ways that I can just follow and hope to see more coming (developed), and I realize that Makoto truly struggled with his own inclinations and from this character's pov, it's well communicated. In fact, all of the characters can be introspective at times and I'm glad it kept the story interesting. This mangaka is definitely incredible at storytelling, character designs, and plots. I can almost forget that this is a BL yaoi series - the art style, the intricate demon world designs are detailed and it's intriguing. It's very rare to find that in yaoi series - it feels like this is something josei/seinen demographics reading material because it's not only compelling and captivating, it has some important plots that can happen even in non-yaoi genre. so that's that for now hahahaha no wonder this manga gets an official english translation - very well deserved! MADK stands for Motsu to Akuma Danshi Koukousei (Gutsy Demon and High School Boy). MADK (2017 - ?): 2V+ 18C+ Makoto has long been ostracized because of his odd hobbies and a sexual kink others would see as disgusting. One day he finds a book on summoning demons and manages to summon the intimidatingly beautiful and rather chatty Archduke J. The demon offers to grant Makoto’s deepest twisted desire in exchange for his life. Once Makoto has sated his demented appetites, he fulfills his end of the bargain, only to find he’s been reborn as a monster…in hell!

Pearl Boy
------------------ New comment on side story 8 (sept 2024): I skipped to this chapter out of boredom and see JooHa and DooShik being cute. I don't remember much from what I've read in the original language (time flies very quickly), but this is adorable. I love that JooHa is trying to become more assertive and more decisive with his intentions. aww I love them NEW REVIEW 2024 (SPOILER) Adult topic: I have to say, I appreciate the reference to SANA's works in this series. I can tell that the creator has an infinite love for Japanese mangaka and animators and comic/animator artists so much that she'd reference it in her series. I love the Japanese references about the scary and thrilling stuff about the underworld life of organized crime groups like the Yakuza (for some apparent reason, sushi shops are always some type of stereotypes lmao that has to do with them, but I don't mind it at all!), and the beautiful artworks and the choices in her color palettes! I'll have to put a disclaimer/advance apology if the creator has expressed a clear intention that she is in no way, referencing SANA's works (because I personally, can see the stark references and that's not a big deal to admit, imo. There's no shame in that, after all many fans are also artists and will reference their fav in their own works). The Critical evaluations: In terms of plot, I can understand her need to elaborately jump on the smut scenes, and we can all agree the art is stunning. However, the story has so many weak holes in it. She throws in and mix in so many of the buzzwords (tropes) in this series but never fully bothered expanding on them. We have to address the elephant in the room, what's the pearl about? What's all the mystery behind JooHa's origin and condition? I was hoping this would turn into something supernatural or at least give us something, like some low level paranormal stuff, like maybe he's the product of some human experiment and that he's a mutant unbeknownst to him, or give it some plot twist. In fact, his absent father is the head of the experiment project and is observing him and gathering data about his son's conditions from the pearls collected by his ex-Bf-cum-legal-stepfather. Give us something so we could run with it. Give us anything to satisfy the curiosity. It's frustrating to see the ending tbf idk what else to say. I can tell that the creator is trying to make it seem like JooHa just happens to be that way, so that's not the main point, BUT THE MAIN POINT IS, JooHa's afflicted and the only person who can save him is DooShik. Ok, and? Can't we at least get some more back story to JooHa's condition? Is that so much to ask? I'm not going to say more, I'm just glad we have some more side stories to follow lol ------------------- SPOILERS AHEAD Old Review: 2020-?

On the other hand, Sungmin may be a masochist with big dreams but is a fledgling that lacks the experience. “My lover is a sexual deviant I've only known from pornos!” vs “I'm a masochist that also feels pleasure from being submissive.” = “Wait up, baby!
