jama's manga / #mature(8)

Sequel to another story. Non-gay man's drama with gay kohai. Twist and turns A LOT but cute ending.

Heartwrenching tragedy of a boy who starts off with everything and then loses it all. Ryuuji Kazama was born into yakuza. He loses his parents to a battle between groups Kazama and Kuroda. He then loses his aunt who raised him and his nephew (who watches him kill the people who killed him mom). He gets raped repeatedly in prison until Ryuuji finally is released from prison. He is taken in by Hitoshi Araki, who use to look after Ryuuji when he was younger. The two finally are together but are separated early by death due to Hitoshi being stabbed. The war is finally over when Ryuuji kills Iba (whose held a grudge against Hitoshi for soooo long) and has his identity purged through witness protection that Hitoshi had set up previously. We meet Kai and Araki Masanori from Kizuna manga :)

Sekine is the perfect man who is blessed with everything except one thing - true love. Everything has been handed to him and he's good at everything that nothing moves or entertains him...until he meet Kisaragi Sara at a magician's shop. He slowly realizes that he is in love with her and the two eventually get together :)

The FEELS! Kain Walker is a closet gay who meets his destined lover at the bar named Mel Fredericks. The two fall in love but promiscuous Kain still sleeps around with other guys. The final straw comes when Kain sleeps with Mel's ex-lover. Mel, being the forgiving one, forgives Kain and the two grow from there. Kain is stubborn, jealous, and easily angered but becomes better after Mel's loving tender and kindness. Kain opens up to his parents and although it takes Kain's mother a while Kain's parents open up to Mel. Then comes the drama of Mel getting kidnapped the day after Kain and Mel get married. Mel goes through a painful experience but is saved by Kain. After getting therapy, Mel and Kain become closer through love and support (not sex). The two adopt a crack baby who grows up to be very accepting. Mel passes away from kidney failure and at the end of the series, Mel picks up 85-year-old Kain and the two go off together. The last story is about two high school friends (heartbreaking story).
