Crimson's manga / #Yaoi(27)

Cover Up

Complete | gyaga | 2019 released

A top asks a bottom tattoo artist, past prostitute, to cover up his burn scar on his back. The bottom has a stalker psycho ex with a saviour complex, who follows him along to Korea. Okayish storyline. While the metaphors and imagery are nice, I dislike the bottom a lot. Also, the psycho ex gets a possible love storyline at the very end and it doesn't go anywhere. Good English. Some blips, but otherwise understandable. Very good art style. I liked the way they were drawn. It was also full colour.

Fruit of the Tongue

Complete | 머니 | 2019 released

A cult member top takes interest in a priest bottom who helped him out as a teenager, kidnapping him. Bottom is passed around cult members before top decides he wants him for himself. Kills the cult members and locks the priest up to keep for himself. Okayish storyline. It wasn't executed the best, but the kidnapping at the end was good, when the bottom realised he wanted to stay with the top. Bad English. Sometimes I didn't know what they were talking about. Good art. I liked the style. Attractive but stereotypical BL.

Heartless

Complete | nishin masumi | 2000 released

An incubus takes a child from a hospital, raising it to bring him future victims. A priest tries to save the child, now a grown man. from the incubus, just to find out his own cult are the bad guys and helps the man to save the incubus. Weird storyline. I didn't like it. Kidnapping the child from the hospital felt ick. The character interactions were weird. Very good English. Flowed naturally. Very good art. The characters looked interesting. Full colour brought it to life.

A death god top watches over the bottom, keeping him from harm's way. Another god gets jealous and tries to harm him, but the top saves the bottom and gets his body destroyed in the process. Interesting storyline. I wish it was fleshed out over more chapters, because the concept in interesting, but there isn't enough time to take it anywhere. Okayish English. Didn't know what they meant at times. Good art. Hot top. Hot rival.

Black Mirror

Complete | Muhwa,Wrist | 2000 released

Bottom forgets about his past with the top, but decides to move in with him for school reasons anyway. He is haunted by visions and reflections. Slowly, living with the top corrupts him as he realises more and more about his past, specifically their combined ability to kill people. Very good storyline. Points of the story flow into each other. Interesting concept. The characters have distinct personalities. Very good English. Very good art style. Full colour, and the characters look like actual adults. Favourited.

A reporter top, alpha, sneaks into a rich people lounge in search of a good story, under the guidance of a friend. Meets a cold and uninterested bottom, omega. The omega sleeps with him, and the alpha is smitten, trying to figure out a way to persuade the omega to him. The omega gets pregnant and they get married. Okayish storyline. I like the reversed personalities with a bubbly alpha and cold, power bottom omega, but not much of the abo universe was expanded upon apart from the mpreg and mentions of pheromones. Also, weak side stories included. Okayish English. Different translators, some chapters were broken in language. Okayish art. Cute and simple. The coloured chapters looked bad.

Bottom witnesses a murder occur and is spotted by the top, a gang member and a higher up in a company. Top captures him but takes a liking to him, and seeing as he has a huge debt, decides to pay it off. They fall in love with each other. Okayish storyline, some of the dialogues with the side character were funny. Better English than other BLs, I think. The jokes carried through in English. Okayish art. Black and white. The art style looked a bit rudimentary.
