Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai
The masochistic, lewd and beautiful yakuza Yashiro and his silent, clumsy, impotent subordinate, Doumeki. This is the story of a man who has never known happiness and of a man who is reborn by getting to know him. Currently includes Vol 1 * Don't Stay Gold * Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai ch 1 - ch 3 * Tadayoedo Shizumazu, Saredo Naki mo Sezu Vol 2 * Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai ch 4 - ch 10.5 Vol 3 * Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai ch 11 - ch 16 * Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai ch 16.5 Its beautiful. I love it. The characters are very well written, and you could feel the pain of the seme and uke. To me, the seme has sort of this obsessive-like love he sees in the uke. I also feel the uke also has the seme in a special place in his heart. The seme also knows that his love would hurt the uke, but he just wants to stay by his side!! Also, it gets more painful after the 4 years they see each other. Their dynamic is very different, and some what stiff but for some reason the tension is there, like their chemistry is pretty amazing and really hard to capture. Although the seme seem stiff at first, its his actions for the uke that makes it beautiful and painful at the same time.

Neji no Kaiten
Ryu is sleeping with his college professor, but doesn't feel loved, so he decides to kidnap his professor's son, Hayato, out of revenge. As it turns out, Hayato's relationship with his father is not very good, so he winds up living with Ryu. Weirdest thing I ever read. It's about these two guys fucking each other and fucking other people. Idk I might not be the best to judge but to do a persons dad and then the son to get revenge and finding out the dad is sexually attracted to his son is really messed up. Like WTF. I still finished it but probably would want to remove this from my memories
Zankoku Na Kami Ga Shihai Suru
Zankoku na Kami ga Shihaisuru portrays the tale of two step-brothers - Jeremy and Ian, as they strive to discover their separate paths towards redemption. Jeremy, a sensitive but outgoing 17 year old, is delighted to hear the news of his neurotic and excitable mother's remarriage to a wealthy British man. However, much to his horror, his sweet-talking new step-father Greg, soon begins to exhibit a disturbing trait...he is a sadistic pedophile and loses no time in making Jeremy his target. Months of horrific, systematic abuse drives Jeremy to desperation; and he sabotages his step-father's car with the hope of eliminating him. The resulting accident, however, kills his mother along with Greg. Jeremy's shocked and guilt-stricken behaviour arouses the suspicions of Greg's free-spirited son, Ian. He unearths enough evidence to tie his step-brother to the crime; but in doing so, also discovers the details of Greg's sexual abuse of Jeremy. Caught in a moral dilemma -- between punishing the criminal and atoning for his father's sins, Ian soon finds himself haunted by lust for Jeremy. Is it lust...or love? He wonders whether he shares his father's proclivities, but finds himself helpless to resist being drawn into a passionate and painful relationship with his step-brother. It’s very disturbing, but a very well-written story. Even though the summary displays this morbid information, going in sort of blind would be a better experience. The pacing is slow but we get to see many character arcs and the changes Jermey has to go through. I have seen yaoi and BL with r*pe, but they usually romantize it and overall never get to display the full trama of this abusive relationship. There are many sex scenes but it’s not really explicit. Instead, sex is sort of drawn in this artistic visual and it sort of visualizes the trama and the moments of each characters emotions. If that truly makes sense. Each character in the story isn’t one dimensional and it is sort of beautiful in that sense. We get to see the whole story with Jeremy meeting that stupid idiot to him experiencing the trama and grief he is put through by his actions. It’s painful and beautiful. Still, it’s exahasting to read because of the length but it fully gets across a story of pain and disgust. It doesn’t romantasize rape, and instead shows the whole picture of how it feels and changes someone. The 1st half is painful but it gets better once Greg is dead. Well sorta. There is a cycle of pain and understanding with the situation. Trama never truly goes away and I liked how this manga portrayed it.
