sad, intense, dark and tragic. even if it's a short story the story is very effective. i also like the story-telling style and the art. it complements the atmosphere of the story giving it an overall noir feel. prostitute x mentally ill serial killer

it's got enough plot, action, weirdness and craziness. there was never a dull moment. props for the sarcastic, smartass uke! haha. warning: do not take seriously, it's bad for the health

ch.1-2: Jin to Neko wa Yobu to Konai. weird and super vague (and super painful) relationship of jin and mari. a pair of really hard to handle people. The pair appeared in the prequel Koujitsuei no Tobira. ./ ch. 4: Non-tea room Sequel. (This should be the sequel because accd. to the sequence of events in the other manga, it's only after renji fell inlove with another person that Arthur realized his mistake) The user-friendly asshole (his POV) and his crimes. #unrequited love #death of a loved one. He said "I love you" to the guy who looked so much like his dead lover while having the face of his dead lover in his mind all the time. Even if he kept the truth of using the boy, boy still found out and got hurt anyway. ../ ch. 5: comedy oneshot about a gay angel sent down to earth. / ch. 6: omake, dream stories.

Confused? READ. #Manga omake of PC BL/otome game. (it will look disjointed/confusing for those who did not play. There are subbed audio cuts out there, like in YT. LOOK FOR IT, IT'S FLAMING HOT!) This is the Asuza route. TBH I'm quite disappointed that his route is is the only one that got a manga adaptation (not like there is an official route in an otome game hmph). I prefer ugaijin or luka, they got the best drama cd scene IMO. Rape to love thing as per normal yaoi.

Cousincest, friendship. tragedy, comfort sex. A very sad meeting of two people closest to a person that lost himself to drugs. But for them both, he is much more than that. Also life goes on and they have to move on somehow or another.
