JGheartManga's manga / #dark(150)

Normally yakuza storylines and plots bore me. This one is super engaging and told uniquely for a yaoi/bara manga. Love it so far xxx Update ch47: the artsy dialogue is starting to get confusing and I think it’s either losing its quality in the translation or the mangaka is trying too hard to be profound. Too many short flashbacks and out of order phrases are muddying up my understanding and flow of the story. Update ending: nope. Too “profound” for me. Didn’t get the ending or the mangaka’s message. Did the MC’s die?

This one is cute but darker than I thought it would be, based on the cover. Don’t let the happy cover fool you. There’s a very deep and educational meaning in this well written story. Update ch26: dropped some stars and took it off my fav list cos it’s starting to drag out and not getting anywhere. DNF @ch27: I’m not hating on this story and message. I’m just feeling bored with it.

Damn. This story had everything

3.5 stars. MC seme not the abuser. Unfortunately as the weak uke can’t leave abusive relationship and also keeps MC seme around for sexy times, it looks like it’s gonna be an annoying triangle trope. DNF: dunno when I dropped this but I think it just wasn’t for me

DNF @ch1 pg27. Love this author but being abused and hit (even if consensual) is not my thing. I don’t hate on the mangaka or readers who enjoy it, cos each their own, but this ain’t my cuppa. Had small guest appearance from seme character from Ore no Oniku-chan.

Geeze. I can’t find myself hating this story. Don’t look for a fluffy romance in this one, but I do hope after all the rape and horrible crap the seme does, he eventually rewards us with some fluffiness. Update ch39: nope, no fluffiness here...

3.5 stars. Wasn’t keen on the beginning of this story (revenge rape ain’t my jam no matter how hurt or in love the abuser is). Then it got more interesting as the story and secrets unfolded.

This is pretty good so far. Looks like it’s gonna be an emotional one.
