I didn't play the game until after I've read the manga, so I'm giving the "ignorant to the game" opinion.
And as that, don't ask me why, but for some reason, when Saeki is just exploring Midou, I think it's deeply painful. Midou's expressions pierce right into my heart and I find it really angsty.
Of course it was so incredibly hot and had drop-dead gorgeous guys, also.
It's mostly about sex and their abusive relationship, but...really? Who cares? It broke my heart. Only to get its pieces back together.
That first kiss? Absolutely touching. So full of passion and desire...I could feel how they were teared apart by being away from each other so long and how long they waited for that first real love contact.
Their few "I love you"s were so cute and in the exact moment they should be said...just...ahhhh -
Also, it had some parts that cracked me up, like "“Bondage is simply a hobby of mine”. Saeki is just lovely, with his sadistic face on ALL the time xD
It's incredible how he looks much more like an uke without the glasses, even when he’s already seme-version o.o
One of my LIFE TIME FAVORITES! And believe me, I've read so much yaoi I rarely find one I haven't read.
It got me sighing like I was in love. So, what are you waiting to read it?
