otakulys's manga / #prince(4)

Butterfly Night

Complete | kayono | 2000 released

Absolutely disgusting. Hey, it's okay when a guy rapes you, as long as he ends up being hot! That aside, the plot is rushed and ridiculous. Then I learned that she ripped off another mangaka's art directly. This chick does not have a lot going for her.

Namida mo Tooku - Aonibi no Nemuri

Complete | honjoh rie | 2009 released

The first story is sad and futile. The second story is interesting, but there's no forgiving rape, especially not so casually. No excuse for that shit. The last story is dorky and cute, kind of unfitting with the other two. It wasn't a bad read, even with its flaws. The translation is slightly off, but not so bad that you can't understand what's happening.

Spinel(baekji)

Complete | baekji | 2000 released

Tentative four until there are more chapters. Pretty art, though the plotline makes me nervous. Gross things often happen in stories like this, plus the racial divide makes me uncomfortable. But I'll reread the two chapters from the beginning once there's more here, and I can form a better opinion then. Fingers crossed that it's good.

His Lake

Complete | Densen | 2000 released

Eh? So was he the evil magician or whatever the whole time? What was with the horns? Or was it implying that he'd turned evil in his grief? Very short and rushed, like everyone is saying, but at least it was too brief and shallow to make me cry, so hey!
