Description
From DMP:
As the son of a prominent and wealthy family, Yutaka wears the mask of a genteel elite student. Frustrated by this facade he must put up and stifled by a future already laid out of him, the only way Yutaka can find to deal with the boredom and unhappiness of his empty life is through sexual release. Then one day, Tohno, a delinquent-looking student with blonde-dyed hair, suddenly transfers into Yutaka's class. As Yutaka finds himself more and more obsessed with a deep abiding lust for this young man, his daily descents into sexual fantasy begin to interfere with his life, until the ferocious impulse to possess Tohno for his own leads him to a diabolical scheme.

No official ending but... by kayue on November 8th, 2009, 11:25pm

Okay, as people have said, this story was never finished (not even a doujinshi!) which his a great shame and very frustrating. I don't know why June even bother publishing it. BUT I recommend you read "Color" and you'll get a least a sidelight into Tohno & Yutaka's relationship.

Very sad by mangafan321 on May 2nd, 2008, 4:38pm

this is definitely a tragic love story (spoiler) the book starts off with Tohno taking home a girl to pass the time while he spends his days waiting for Yutaka. normally i hate books where one of the character sleeps around, but theres something about this couple that pulls me in. Tohno obviously love Yutaka and he idles his days waiting for him, almost as if he is lost without him and Yutaka, is a man with demons pulling at his back, he has some serious traumas in his life that stop him from being with Tohno, the first chapter is about them in the future and then the rest of the book is about how they meet. when the book finishing you are left with a feeling of wondering what will happen to them in the future.

great but no sequel in sight by grumble_cakes on April 17th, 2008, 12:04pm

I'll start with a warning- this manga ends with a cliffhanger and it doesn't look like there's going to be a sequel. The afterwards mentions a sequel might be coming in 2002 but obviously that didn't happen and it's 2008 already!

The actual story is really great if you love dark obsessive love like in Ai no Kusabi or Bronze/Zetsuai. This story is not romantic at all so if that's what you're looking for you might want to stay away from this title. The artwork is decent, nothing amazing. I so wish a sequel would be published... I need to know what happened "that day" and what's up with the Tohno's scar.

darkness in a slightly different way by aislin on January 1st, 2008, 10:16pm

I was surprised by how much I liked this since I sort of gambled on it initially. The darkness in this is dealt with a little differently than most yaoi manga I've read, which pass possessiveness off as normal or something that the character doesn't even struggle with much. Given the character designs, somehow the roles seemed skewed to what I would have expected. Yutaka's frustration and obsession is so consuming and intriguing to watch as it plays out, while Tohno is surprisingly a sweeter/cuter guy than I expected. I've come to love this manga.
