otakulys's manga / #straight seme(2)

It rubs me the wrong way that most people will probably excuse the rape scene since it's the uke raping the seme, but whatever. The fact that it's so easily forgiven isn't at all unusual for yaoi, even when the seme is especially violent, so this is no different. I really like spin-off books for stories I enjoyed to begin with, so despite that one thing, I had fun reading this. It's kind of annoying at times, mostly just how emo and self-pitying the main guy is, but I also feel for him as far as his fear for his happiness ending. It's a sweet story, regardless. I'm glad it had a happy ending, even if it was sort of implausible as it was. I wish more manga would promote the concept of bisexuality, rather than the "I'm straight, but I'm gay for you" trope.

I don't know if there's more to the main story or if the remaining chapters are going to be oneshots or something, but I really like this as is. I actually kind of wish there was more with the boyfriend and what not. I liked that surprise, and how he was tied to this dangerous man, but then it never went anywhere. At least it was sweet that it brought out the characters' feelings for one another even more.
