Hydra

Description

From Liquid Passion:

1-4) When Ryuu transfers to Hitomi's school, he leaves an immediate impression on him. Curious about rumours of a full-scale tattoo on Ryuu's back, Hitomi starts getting closer to him. Before long, the friendship and fascination Hitomi feels for Ryuu start developing into more, but before he has a chance to come to terms with his feelings, Hikaru appears on the scene.... and he has his eyes set on Hitomi.

5-6) Now that Hikaru has become close friends with Hitomi and Ryuu, the group dynamics have changed. When Hikaru expresses his growing interest in Hitomi, will Ryuu admit his feelings or let Hitomi slip away...?

7-8) Ryuu seems to have found comfort in other places as Hitomi and Hikaru Taira get further involved. Sexual frustrations finally find an outlet, though misdirected.

9-11) In a startling series of events that lead up to Hydra's transfixing climax, hearts break, enemies resurface, and ties of friendship bind the trio in a complex web of struggle, sacrifice, and redemption.

Hydra 11 by cicatrice on June 15th, 2009, 8:34am

FINALLY it's completed, sadly it's over. I feel so damn happy and sad at the same moment I almost can't take it. Miyamoto-sensei always can make me feel this way, especially with the characters of Rules and Hydra. They have something inside them, that reminds me of myself. Thank you really much for creating that story, Miyamoto-sensei, and Happy Birthday! more than 10 points Rating: 10 / 10.0 Did you find this comment useful? Yes No

I really like this so far.. by fancyultrafresh on September 30th, 2008, 3:51pm

I’m not the biggest of Yaoi fans but I really do enjoy Miyamoto Kano’s works. I read many reviews praising the ‘Rules’ series so I thought I would start from the beginning of it’s time line. That’s when I fell in love with ‘Hydra’. The plot is very sweet but sad. I can’t quite explain it, but I like how it’s not overly exaggerated, ridiculous or hackneyed. It is simply about life and growing up. The characters are amazingly well developed. Miyamoto Kano writes real people with the human flaws, emotions, and reactions, so true to life that it hurts sometimes. The artwork is especially lovely. As of right now, I’m patiently waiting for the ‘Hydra 9+10+11’ scanlations. Things aren’t looking too good for the trio right now and I'm dying to know how it'll all end. Sadly, I’m thinking there won’t be a happy ending. Rating: 10 / 10.0 Did you find this comment useful? Yes No ... Last updated on September 30th, 2008, 10:31pm

Love the timeline by juvenile_anime on March 12th, 2008, 10:18am

I love all of kano MIYAMOTO's work. And Hydra is no different. I got hooked on at RULES and the storyline of all the characters past and present surfaced making it feel like soap drama.. which is weird because I hate those mid-afternoon soaps.
