ladyarakune's manga / #eye patch(4)

beautiful artwork! Guy must become sex slave to two guys to earn money for his sick brother. One of the gangsters has an eye patch 10/10

A cute albeit emo short story. Love triangle between a young video actor, a writer, and the pseudo-yakuza friend. The story itself seemed underdeveloped in the sense that i don't feel like many of the main issues were resolved. The over-arching storyline involving the investigative journalism was hurriedly finished and subsequent characters just left. At the end, I felt really underwhelmed.

According to this site, this manga was released in 2000. That would make it a little more OG than hyakujitsu no bara, which has a similar plot. This story is about a prisoner of war who gets special treatment from an officer. Eventually, the officer becomes obsessed and completely delusional and falls in love. Later, the prisoner also falls in love, and it seems like they have moved from a crazy delusional love to the real thing. Maiden rose explores similar themes but has a couple more volumes to do it in. This story was very similar and i think it is valuable to look at it an compare it to newer iterations (such as maiden rose).

cute comic about treasure hunters. the captain has an evil twin brother and they use this as a plot device whenever possible. As they should.
