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.

Pe-pe-pe-perfect! While every chapter is filled with drama, the character relationships still get developed well enough for the romance (or whatever bonds were formed) to be believable and realistic. As usual, I adore how Yoneda-sensei takes two broken individuals and pairs them up so that they can make each other whole again. It's really an unconventional love affair between the straight-laced Doumeki and the loose Yashiro. Once you immerse yourself in this manga, you'll start to get the feeling that both of them are descending to the pits of hell with no regrets.

The story for chapters 1-3 is interesting, but the rest is not so memorable. Not that this is a bad read, but it's just doesn't leave enough of an impression for me aside from the role reversal for the first couple.
