Dotei Yankee Magicus

Complete | Haruta | 2000 released

This story could’ve happened without the Majo Shonen nonsense, it only raises more questions than something of its length is able to answer. And you can’t just throw the incest subplot at me then resolve it in like three pages after having Rei trauma dump all the exposition.

I guess we are supposed to believe that, in leaving his father, Iori becomes aware of his worth as a person and not a stressball unto which frustrations are released,,, but he goes right back to Manabu who'd done just that - and drove him away right after no less - on some cheap promise of "doing better." I suppose it's fine if you look at the ending as being bitter sweet, with Iori leaving one broken man for another, but I just don't think that was the intent. Just feel like its begging to be taken seriously as a Mature manga.

Lion and Venus

Ongoing | Yura | 2019 released

Fake and gay for the incest cop-out. And I get that they turned themselves in to turn over a new leaf but I don’t understand why they didn’t tip off the police about Akira’s drug smuggling. His gang didn’t even know what to do when he got shot cause they didn’t want their hideout raided. Masami kept him alive as a witness, and regardless of if Akira wanted his boy crush locked up or not, he would’ve done time for illegal possession of a firearm anyway. Just seemed like a very obvious way to get rid of him for good. Aside from that I would’ve liked to see how Masami’s departure from the group played out.
