Don't you just hate it when your grandpa binds your soul with a doll in a spiritual marriage? Don't worry, though. This is Yaoi-land. Anything goes. This story is kind of disjointed and all over the place. It isn't the worst thing I've ever read, but the plot points were very choppy, and the reveals were formulaic. The art was okay, but the plot itself was kind of dull and rushed. I may have liked it a tiny bit more if it weren't for the weird rape-to-love elements, but I dunno. Two and a half stars, but it won't let me do halves.

Wow. That's about the least creepy direction this kind of premise could go. It's actually really sweet, and I'm hoping we'll get a chapter of them in the future, so that they can get it on without Chris Hansen coming in.

Damn it! Stop dragging it out! The tension is only fun for so long. I want to see them date now. I hope the next volume isn't just five more chapters of the same stuff, misunderstandings and cut off confessions, only for the kiss or whatever to happen in the last few pages. x_x But this is a very sweet story with very pretty art. I love it. It's washing a bad taste out of my mouth after reading something stupid and sad. It was just what I needed, but I hate that it isn't finished. I don't know when the second volume is even coming out. EDIT: Uuuuuugggghhhh, this is so much bullshit. I should have just waited until it was done releasing. It took a long time to get chapter seven, and I'm sure things won't be resolved in chapter eight. So it leaves it on this unpleasant feeling. The first volume was so sweet, and I was just really hoping for more of that. Then it throws in that bullshit misunderstanding type stuff. I mean, maybe not as bad as it usually is, but if they just communicated properly, it wouldn't be an issue. They could work through it together. I hate this crap. At least they both know they like each other, but it's annoying knowing it's gonna be this whole thing just for them to date.
