This is a one-hellauva cliche and strangely not-too cliched (ah...who am I fooling?) story.
Usually, I'm put off by BL novels (because I'm not too big on mangasxnovel=text reading and I'm lazy, so reading so much text is really an option I don't like too much) , but the summary for this one just caught my attention.
Why?
Because I've never read something that involves train groping and eventually sex which transforms the poor uke (Tomoya) into some...yeah, read it and you'll be really shocked. Or not so much...
So why a 10 for this suppose-to-be piece of crap? I don't quite know. This is a strange paradox.
I like the ukes to be introverted, shy, and naive because it makes things much more interesting. For this, sure it certainly does. I cringe at the sex scenes and at the same time I'm hoping that the uke would return to his innocent self and stop craving for his teacher who is a complete pervert.
Impossible as far as I know in yaoi world where everything is glorified.
There are some 'Aw...' moments, but the eventual sandwich won't be so 'Aw...' anymore...
Anyways, this novel is not a fluff journey to true love and flowerland. It's a story about a manipulative teacher, taking advantage of his virgin (taken in the first sex scene) student with low self-esteem (bullied) and making him into a sex (slave). The uke is pitiable and this 'love' journey can't be anymore unpredictable than that! I do wonder what will happen and for now anything can happen really.
On a plus side, he does kind of grows a spine? But still he bends at his teacher's commands. It's ludicrous.
I don't know if there is a 'love' (lust) triangle for this at all, but assuming from the synopsis, there can be one...but judging from Tomoya's emotions, he'll probably end up with...crazy, perverted, shameless, wanton, salacious Kuroki. I might as well call him a bastard? Some corruption he got through Tomoya.
Quite tragic 😮
Now, the art is decent enough, considered contemporaneous for me.
