otakulys's manga / #dark(197)

I liked the one before this better, but this mangaka always makes me happy. Very strange, dark little vignettes. Some of them have legitimately creeped me out, which is hard to do.

Kind of... strange. Very short oneshot based on getting back at a crappy father. The sick brother is weirdly naive, but I guess it's because he's in a plastic bubble? I feel like someone would have told him at some point not to pull his penis out in front of other people and shout, "It's here!" when he gets an erection.

I'd have to read it again, but I remember it being okay. Gory and weird, but okay. I'm not grossed out by that sort of thing, but it probably would disturb most people.

Read this ages ago and don't recall liking it. It pops up on "disturbing" lists, so I see it over and over, but I'm not eager to read it again. Might try it eventually, just to be sure I'm remembering it correctly and my two star rating is accurate.

Pure smut, if memory serves. No plot, really, just lots of rape, but I'd have to read it again to be sure.

Wait, what? I'm so confused. I've read this manga twice before, and the ending is suddenly different. I swear that before, he raped his friend and then the friend leaves without them ever seeing one another again. It was heartbreaking and dark, and I liked that it didn't brush away the awful thing he did, just left its heavy presence in the absence of the boy he loved. There's no forgiveness for that sort of thing. So why does the end have a new part with him saying that they made up and dated? That makes no sense. Am I crazy? This is going to drive me nuts. Three stars for the original ending, one star for the ending they have right now. I swear I'm not making this up, but wtf.

Very disturbing. I'm not typically a fan of magical pills that make a character super into getting raped (since that's not what happens with roofies or aphrodisiacs or anything of the sort), but the story was otherwise interesting. And quite sad. I'd read it briefly before and somehow missed that ending. Pretty fucked up.

I like it. Very creepy and unsettling. I want more creepy yaoi stories where it's obviously meant to be horrific and doesn't end with love magically blossoming.

So sad and screwed up! I can't tell if the implication is that Shirase drowned out of shock after the rape, or Shirase killed himself afterward. Either way, I feel so bad for Shirase. I wanted to cry when he was crying. Everything was going horribly in his life, then his best friend raped him, then he drowned. That's a pretty crappy way to go out. Ugh, too depressing. Now I need to read something fluffy.

Definitely strange so far, still feeling it out. I'm interested, though, so I hope it goes in a strong direction. The creepy cult is an unusual thing in yaoi manga, so I'm eager to see more of that.
