Not sure how to rate it

It is a very good story with the plot, nice art and all that stuff but it has a flat shitty ending or I should say it has no ending. When I saw the last chapter and extra I was extremely disappointed and plain angry. Why this happened? It's not fair. It's a total failure. Just when the story seemed to be awesome it turned out to be annoying.
This is the biggest disappointment about yaoi in my life.

Psyche Delico

As always her art is beautiful and her story thought provoking. I normally stay far far away from polygamy stories because they are often ridiculous and just off putting but this one - and I thought I’ll never say it - is perfect. She can do no wrong and of course what comes with her gorgeous art work is her well drawn sex scenes. From an artistic stand point they are beautiful, clean and erotic. From a fujoshi stand point - drool worthy.

surprisingly good

The characters and story has a lot of depth and was a surprisingly good read. I've come to expect shallow, stereotypical and predictable characters from the yaoi genre, but this manga gave a refreshingly deep cast. With believable reactions from the cast, the theme of polyamory is explored in this manga and draws thought to how it affects the people within that relationship. The art was simple but quite adequate in expressing the emotions of the characters.This was a fascinating read that is much more than your usual yaoi.

I didn't get past the first sex scene, so maybe it gets better. But that was really unconfortable and I just felt bad for Mine.
But if you don't mind the "i don't want to do it but i'm gonna because i luv u" kind of story then go ahead.

Honestly, I don't have a problem with threesomes and polyamorous relationships and such (although they're not my cup of tea) , but Mine reaaally doesn't like that guy in the beggining, and still has sex with them 'cause freaking Hiroi starts some emotional blackmail and voila unconfortable sex. It really feels like he would be better off just telling Hiroi to be a manipulative brat elsewhere.

Threesome done right

I usually don't like multiple lovers, but this story did very well at portraying all three of them. They all have their own flaws, but they are able to make it work well with them. Plus, their personal relationships are different.

Messed up, but...

I must say I'm a total romantic when it comes to relationships and I don't believe threesomes are a proper way to express feelings of love. That's why I would usually avoid reading stories about someone having more than one sexual partner at a time - polyamory, adultery, or whatever. However, I decided to read this and I don't have regrets. It is unique, definitely the first time I read something like this. Even if the is situation bizarre, PsycheDelico makes it seem plausible somehow. I even came to like Mine and Take - pretty much I might add. No love for Hiroi though. Of course, they should all go see a shrink.

One big complaint:
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
Why didn't Hiroi die somehow? He's a total selfish sick bastard, the instigator, the root of all evil, etc., etc. I'm not blaming him for all, but he really has some morbid ways to assure himself that others care for him. And seriously, I had hopes for Take and Mine, I thought there was love... Well, there was, just not the one that I hoped for (?). In the end, it seemed like they found equilibrium, but I think it's shallow. And anyway, I still wish they break up that sick relationship (my sense of righteous love kicks in).

Polyamory

This is polyamory in the true sense. I only figured out what it meant a few months ago and this manga patterns what I learned perfectly. All three characters end up loving each other, but maybe not in the exact same way. And the mangaka conveys this progression so well; it makes total sense that the relationships would turn out this way. Plus the art is as amazing as usual for Psyche Delico. The smut is tantalizing as well.

The only thing I didn't like was the scene with the

double penetration. It was not consensual and Mine was completely justified in his outrage. Although there are heartfelt apologies and back-story, I don't think Mine should have apologized to Hiroi at all. That scene left a bad taste in mouth for sure.

I'm not even exaggerating when I say this is the first time I've come across a legit 3-some story that makes sense from beginning to end. I've never really understood the concept of more than 2 people being in love with each other altogether, probably because of the social exposure I have relating to the subject, which is why this manga just feels so right, with just the right amount of psychology, romance and sex. I can totally relate to each of the characters despite the fact that I've never been in such a relationship - that's how good the mangaka is at storytelling. Her art is also reeeally scrumptious, I could just look at the boys go at it all day and not get tired of it. Anyone that has an open mind should definitely give this work a try even if just to broaden your horizon.

Not going to end well

Dede was onto something, and I do not think it'll end well. I've never been so torn before in a love triangle and because anyone can end up with anyone. I really have no favorites. This author is cruel with her carrot and stick.
