Thanks to the last one shot, the rating for this manga went from 3 stars to 4. Firstly, the main story promotes an unhealthy relationship. Despite the fact that Kazushi has declared that he loves Ueda-sensei, he still hurts and verbally abuses him. Regardless of whether the seme is in the yakuza or not, I don't think that that was the right way to act around someone's lover. (The bits about the son were hilarious though) After the streak of sadism, the author surprised me with a one shot so fluffy that I almost forgot about the negative criticism I had for the previous stories. The art for 'Happiness Will Come to this Place'(title?) is kinda sloppy, but tolerable.

A very powerful one shot. The story mainly focuses on the POV of the older brother, so there is very little understanding of what the younger brother thinks. Somehow, there were plot holes left unaswered (probably because it's so short), but people who like dark/angsty reads might like this. WARNING: incest CONS: characters are too bony, anatomy was off in some panels

Art(2): Stunning. Gorgeous. Beautiful. Just everything nice condensed into this series. The subtle lining of sensei's art style just elevates her illustrations to her own niche... like, it has become her trademark. And I love how she draws their bodieees! Nom~ Plot(2): The format of the first story seems more fluid to me, compared to Beast & Feast. It gradually built up towards the single obstacle in the story, and the conclusion was great. Glad that the H scenes weren't BOOM! in your face! Sometimes less is good. I also loved the story, though it completely lacked the mellow and sweet vibe the first story had. Misc/Ending(1): On an unrelated note, thank you kamisama for the amazing translation team for finishing the entire series.

The story is ok, pretty common. Gave me a few laughs, but not enough to leave a lasting impression. The winning factor of this manga is the art style, which I really adore!

These yakuza stories have always had a special place in my heart. Regardless of whether they have a really unsophisticated plot, I don't seem to mind and still favor them over others... this manga is a proof of that. There isn't really anything spectacular about it, but I like it nonetheless. Plus, Nomura is so adorable I just can't!
