Yuureitou
tw for sexual abuse, pedophilia kind and incest themes towards the end of the series but it really draws you in and it has a happy ending for queer characters. I liked some of the writing but as others have pointed out, the climax/ending goes into weird autogynephile type themes for a villain which isn't great, and tetsuo's transness is almost fetishised by the narrative sometimes. other than that he's a well written trans character
Magi
magi is a masterpiece of interweaving politics, particularly class conflict and imperialism, within a fantasy universe. it's really sad how so many people missed the references to the kou family split as referencing the chinese civil war, magnostat as a criticism of the apartheid state of Israel, and the use of Sinbad to discuss the American empire and soft power imperialism. sad that the editors fucked over the ending but i love magi so so much!!!

Adekan
the only good part is the art. the storyline is overly edgy and written to be provocative. the plot at the beginning was solid but deteriorated as Anri became more and more relevant. extremely disturbing taste in fanservice, and there is gratuitous fanservice and queerbaiting present. all of the worst BL tropes but with no actual relationship. Clearly written for basic fujoshis. fetishisation and dehumanisation of sex workers and the sex industry as a whole - including a lot of child sexual exploitation and again! super graphic and pointless sexual assault scenes/sexual abuse. i have dark tastes, and i like psychological and historical series. but returning to this series from when i dropped it in 2015, it is 100% worse than I remember because back then I was a kid who thought that this was somehow great plot pacing/character writing lmaoooo. what a waste of beautiful art and a great premise
