otakulys's manga / #threeway relationship(3)

It's a really messed up story with a very unhealthy relationship from beginning to end, but it works for me somehow. I don't usually like the way abusive/manipulative behavior is often treated as romantic in Yaoi-land, but I think the story here is at least semi-aware of how screwed up the relationship is here. Not that there are three of them, but that it's such a strange, controlling, pushy, co-dependent sort of relationship. Still, I'm glad that it ended on a happy note. I would love to read more involving these three, as long as they always end up together in the end.

Man, I *adore* love triangles that turn into threeway relationships. That is so rare. Obviously this mangaka is fond of that herself, since this wasn't a one time theme for her. But I would have liked to see more of these guys. Though there was some coercion, this was a lot less rapey than the other one, so it'd be nice to see things unfold on a healthier note. Eh, oh well, a girl can wish.

The guys were both on the pushy side, of course, but not as bad as it usually is in yaoi. The chemistry wasn't as strong as it has been in the few other threeway relationships I've read, but I liked the characters and thought it was cute. I hope we get to see more of them and how it's all working out. And it's Yaoi-land, so I suppose we can forgive the fact that the one guy tried to date rape him.
