otakulys's manga / #sad(232)

I love this mangaka so much, and I love the stories, especially the rain one. I just wish the ending weren't so ambiguously sad.

Very fucked up, but I remember enjoying this a lot when I read it ages ago.

Pretty messed up, but I remember liking it when I read it ages ago.

So sad! But at least it was short, so it wasn't as painful as it might have been. It was a sweet concept, I just wish we could see the girl finding her own love, a girl who stays by her this time. But hey, eating after a breakup is always encouraged!

Very sweet so far. We'll see where it goes.

Very sweet, sad, and touching story about unrequited love. The hint of hope at the end stopped it from being too painful. It's very realistic in the sense that the character would be ostracized for his orientation, and he'd be afraid of acting on his feelings. It's nice to see actual gay characters and not just "surprise gay" characters in shounen ai.

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.

It was okay for what it was. I'm not super into bara, so the art didn't do it for me, but the story was... so-so. Some typical yaoi silliness, but it tried to at least address the emotional issues of the main character in the few short pages it had.

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.
