Ch. 1 of Yami BL anthology - Dark // Messed up // Twisted // Abused Uke // Murder // Necrophilia // Suicide

BL Anthology - Tragic stories of those for whom it is decided that they "Will Die Tomorrow" Ch. 1 You Were Smiling by Akane Sora - "I want to hurry up and see you" ( T ^ T )♡ I think the other stories will be really sad too, but this surely was beautiful and so was the art! [SPOILER] He wanted to see his dead lover so badly that he decided to die, he couldn't go on living without him anymore, but if only he could see that he was actually right beside him and wanted to prevent him from dying...ahhh my poor heart!!! Ch. 2 Wakare no Sanka by Akizuki Ichiha - "A creature from a long time ago, whose form, which had been preserved in folk tales, possessed hair like silver thread and near-transparent white skin. On its back, wings that glinted like quartz" Aliyev was very beautiful indeed, with those long hair and wings, but at the beginning I thought "What a beautiful uke!" Haha I was wrong! Anyway, they were cute together. Even if it's a sad ending, in this case I thuoght it was almost sweet...I mean, I felt this wasn't as tragic as the other stories: certainly I feel sad for poor Lutz (p.21 is so heartbreaking), but after 500 years, the time for Aliyev's life to end came, simply as that, not because of some dramatic issues, and what is more, he was happy to spend the last moments of a long, lonely life with his beloved person! P. 19-20 are so meaningful! Pure, beautiful! Ch. 3 Honest Heart by Kai - Master x Android. "Today, I've prepared my lord's clothes, protected the estate from people, and tended to the gardens. Soon, my duty will end. Good night, my lord" - Ahh this really got to me, how the honest android, who tells no lies, always stayed beside his lord till the moment of his death...and even after that, he still continued to carry on the duties his lord trusted him with, till his heart stopped beating! And before that happened, he went to lay down in the garden, right where he buried his lord! This really moved me...it was so melancholic this short story. Ch. 4 Sekai no Owari no Koi no Hajimari by Otono Awo - At the End of the World, a Love Begins: simply beautiful!! I loved this! I loved the setting, the idea the author chose to express the concept of "Will Die Tomorrow"...this was cool and emotional! Thinking about the circumstances in which Michiru met Saiki-san, how could happen that a total stranger helped him in that world...that made Michiru just wish he had met him sooner! "Why did I have to meet you today, of all days? I wish it was a day where there is a tomorrow!". And it's so meaningful what Saiki-san said: "It doesn't matter if tomorrow doesn't exist. Because, we are alive right now. Even if the sky falls on us tomorrow, we have now." Ch. 5 Ochiru/Falling Down by Yuryi - Even if he has to sleep with men or kill someone, Jill would do anything his boss orders him, cause he was saved from his abusive father by him, but he's such a cruel man... [SPOILER] After making use of him, making him do the dirty jobs for him, he orders him to kill himself... "At my final night there's only one thing I want" - omg, please grant him his final wish: he just wants to be embraced by the man he loves, the boss' right hand, William..."It was sweet and lonely, yet I was happy" at least he'll have no regrets! But actually, the seme's reaction surprised me...I didn't expect he'd take his own life! Maybe it was to make things easier for the uke: "Don't worry, you're not alone. I'm sure we'll see each other soon", but I'm glad he loved him back and this was proof that his life would have been meaningless without Jill!! Bittersweet, but beautiful!! Ch. 6 Nido Kureru Honou-bushi by Mayama Rika - Step-brothers that grew up so close to each other, they were always together like real twins, but they can't continue to act like this...After big bro got engaged, little bro has a one-time favor to ask... [SPOILER] Romeo and Juliet kind of story; Plot twist - Little bro failed suicide, woke up to find his bro actually killed himself... Ahhh this hurts, but it's beautiful, cause he knows now what the bro felt when he found him dead...but the big bro at least could have tried to save him, cause he wasn't really dead...if only he made sure of it before taking his life! Ch. 7 Anoxia by Aoi Aki - "The human-eating beast and the man who sated his loneliness for the very first time". How lonely, the life of a man who has to eat human hearts to survive...if we can even call that life! "Until I die, there's still time" - What started as a "convenient deal" became such a tragic, beautiful love! The love between Ray and Julian, an ill man who accidentally saw Ray eating a woman's heart and, despite being afraid at first, was willing to let him eat his heart, because he was going to die soon. But when Ray knew what love is, it was hard for him to take his lover's heart...I can't even imagine how painful it'd be to take the heart of the person you love! And the lawyer asking "Why did you do it?"/"If you loved him, why?"...ahhh man, no one can understand the pain he's going through! "As long as he lives within me, I can't end myself. That'd be like killing him twice. So I have to leave that to others" Ch. 8 Rehearsal by Aruku - "His last request": Tsumugu has cancer and he's going to die tomorrow. Before that happens, his spirit shows up to Masahiko and asks him to rehearse his funeral... It was sad that the next day Tsumugu really died, but his spirit will continue to show up!? ➤ In conclusion, I think that Ashita Shinu is a masterpiece in Anthology category! Imo, the concept is unique and even if the stories are so tragic, they are beautiful at the same time! It's one of the best anthologies I've read so far! The cover, by yoco, is very beautiful too!

A Cruel God Rules in Heaven - MASTERPIECE, an Award-winning work by Hagio Moto, one of the pioneers of BL. In fact, this deep and mature story is a valuable icon of psychological BL for me. Tragic story of Jeremy, a young boy whose life will be completely destroyed after his mother's remarriage: he'll fall into a downhill spiral, without escape. Content: Child Abuse, Sexual Abuse, Rape, Drug Abuse / Addiction, Dark Ambience, Mind Break, Sadistic Pedophile, Trauma, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Murder, Prostitution - Maybe not everyone can take such a heavy story, it could be disturbing for someone, but I think it depicts, in an exemplary way, harsh aspects such as rape, child abuse, sexual abuse, which are serious issues that traumatize the victim and the wounds may never heal... In Jeremy's case, he was stripped of his human dignity, broken into pieces (both physically and mentally), driven to desperation! But I prefer a story like this, which portrays such aspects, cruel as they are, rather than manga where rape is treated lightly, veiled by romance as if nothing happened... Anyways, returning the the plot, Sandra was almost cruel as Greg, because she actually knew everything, but didn't do anything to help her son!! About the step-brother Ian, I actually liked him and I found interesting the development of his relationship with Jeremy. By discovering about the one who killed his father, he also finds out about the abuse Jeremy had to suffer...so he is torn on what to do: wheter to pursue the path of revenge or atone for his father's sins. Soon this dilemma becomes even more complicated when the lust for Jeremy begins to confuse him and the new question is: is this lust or love? Such a tormented story, but at the end of this thorny path, the one who truly helped Jeremy is Ian, so I want to see something good in this relationship between step-brothers!

《Masterpiece》 I really like stories with many couples and I'm actually surprised because I loved them all ♡ such a great story!!
