MrJ's manga / #dark(5)

It is a very beautiful Manhwa, at the beginnings the graphics did not convince me but the story is addictive and now I can say the graphics is really suitable, the plot is intricate and it is based on flashback and continuous alternance between past and present time. It talks about important thematic like the reception of homosexuality in the society and the reaction to other cultures, it treats about stalking, love, hate and pace, but not in a trivial way. I'm very pleased to recommend it.

This is one of my favorite manga and one of the first I have started to follow. The storyline is very intricate mostly now because of all the question without conclusion opened by the author... But Yana Toboso is really a great author and she manages to untangle the convoluted plot she weaves. The traduction of this manga is really good, flowing but it is necessary to have a rich lexicon, but for a person who speaks discreetly english is more than feasible. The graphics is truly beautiful in my opinion, very clear and the proportions are pleasant for the sight, maybe the characters seem to resemble each others, but I like this effect, it seems giving a good unity in the scenes.

This is one of the best Manhwa "MaleToMale" I have ever read, really, it is awesome: the graphics, in my opinion, is perfectly clear, linear, the colors are equitably balanced, there are not too many overlays, all the characters have theirs own features. The only "defect" - but I think the author has done it purposely - all the characters remain the same and static, only the main character "One" changes his own aspect in the course of the history, but I think this trait is adequate both for the presence in the history of the other characters and to make a difference between the protagonist and the other characters, to raise him. The plot is well-made, intricate, but easy to understand, the author has knowingly been able to alternate sad moments and sweet moments as sexy moments and serious moments. The explicit scenes are not so upsetting, rather they are very sexy and cute at the same time, even with BDSM contents.

This manhwa is the right exemple of a succeeded plot with a great graphic, lovely the saturation of the color, and, differently from others manhwa, the correct alternation of draws scenes and inclused modified photos results almost natural; thought there are some charaterization of the graphic than don't result practical for some atmospheres, in my opinion. The yield of exciting and hot situations is really good thank to the color and the comics signs. Th eviolent scenes don't seems so shoking, as the sex scenes, the authors have censored almost all this scenes not allowing the readers to truly "enter" in the event. This makes the story accessible to a wider audience, but also makes the history less natural. The only true difect, in my opinion, is the epilogue, too fast, too little violent, too "romantic", and it doesn't make any true conclusion. It seems to be continued... But, maybe, this is the intent of the author. I hope it is, because otherwise we could speak of a rapid descent towards the oblivion of mediocrity.

Very interesting storyline for a small cute yaoi, at the first moment I thought it would have been a PWP (Porn Without Plot), but in reality the story is well-structured, although it is not complex at all. The drawings are very well-done and very classic, right proportion. The sex scenes are truly explicit and someone could be annoyed by them, but for me these are beautifully drawn and have the right amount of "dirty".
