Toumei ni Kuchizuke
A spirit seme and an uke traumatised by a terrible past seem destined to meet in this supernatural yaoi. I liked how the seme kept the uke grounded in the present when he had moments of PTSD.
Kare To Kare
Different. More obsession than love, there was not much evidence of caring in these stories.
Ikujinashi no Shiawase
Loved most of these, especially the shop owner/landlord and the vampire stories. Even the perverted cousin messing with his drunk, sleeping cousin was surprisingly enjoyable despite the dubious consent. But the violent rapist host club owner was abusive and obsessed, and not even a good kind of obsessed, but a horrible, controlling and thoroughly selfish kind. Zero tenderness = bleh
Game (Dodam)
A lifetime of extreme abuse seems to have created a total masochist who falls under the control of a sadistic, dark master.
Kuroneko Saiman Fakkyuu!! Tsunage! Orc no Ideshi!! (Haikyuu!!)
Yoru To Asa No Uta
Some disturbing scenes are in this story, but they are in the typical Harada style of life not always being light and full of decent, non twisted people. As horrible as it was, the retribution scene seemed to trigger a reset for the self centred seme. There was definitely a feeling that something had to give (and I know this mangaka isn’t one to shy from confronting scenes), but that still left me feeling sorry for an otherwise rather unlikeable man.
Ai Wa Karada De Kataru Mono
Overall an enjoyable collection of stories to pass the time. My only problem were the pages where the tongues were black.. I have just finished reading a bunch of horror and supernatural yaoi like Rokurokubi, so the black tongues creeped me out
Usagi To Ookami No Shinshi Kyoutei
These were pretty enjoyable and fast faced one shots, though the second couples story could have benefitted with some proper punishment for the students who like to rape.
Kawaii Akuma
This story is amazing. Usually non consent stories get my hackles up, but there was clear warning for this story and I gave it a go looking for a devil like seme with the face of an angel. The uke was fascinated by the perfection of the seme before he rejected the confession given to him, but the story definitely started with forced sex. But the unapologetic obsession of the seme in this story ticked all my boxes for an irresistible plot. I love reading about a well constructed yandere character, they are a rare find where their dark and scary side is balanced by an equally possessive and dangerous protection for their partner. Looking forward to the next in this series as the ending felt abrupt, but I still enjoyed this twisted guys story.
