Very Good Yaoi!

Art: Very Good
Story: Very Good
I surprise that is why so many fangirls/fanboys like this series many, it's so extremely hot, Asami was so handsome, the best seme i like the most in yaoi world....and so the story gets more and more interesting.

Why did this get 10s and why so man readers actually even read it? I have no darn clue whatsoever.

It's full of rape, probably the smuttiest yaoi out there, and not just that, it has BDSM, Sex toys, and all kinds of stuff that would normally mindfuck you, and the fact that there are people who actually read this, and there's 8 pages full of comments, and all of them from females no less, makes it even more disturbing, i can't believe people read stuff like this, in my whole life as a yaoi reader, i haven't been this aware of my own creepy fandom, and the content in this one is just...i haven't read shit like this in even the most hardcore BDSM rape HENTAI manga ever, and when i saw masculine guys, i mean THOUGH guys, guys that you'd think would be the seme...get raped and act like a sissy girl who just got her ass molested with a fist, i tried to pop out my damn eyes out, it's like you stabbed me with a fork right in the brains, i don't know what to say, this was plain terrible, and i just realized why people actually hate most yaoi fangirls, and damn glad i'm not one of those "most".

You can't get better that this, just don't don't...
the art (OMG the ART!!!),
the story (OMG so much GREAT SMEX and possessive love!),
even the personalities of the characters!!(OMG AKIHITOOO!!! the best uke ever!! he stands up for himself and i LOVE IT!),
it's all done soo well that u will feel that u are in yaoi HEAVEN!
This was my first yaoi, and i'm so thankful that it was this one, and no other crap-just-smut-thing, cause once you've seem a A+ you can recognize other A+ on the infinite manga list that exist in this planet LOL
This is the best.. just that... in short: This is how a yaoi manga should be done.
read it on mangahere (they upload chapters faster)

Major let down

Spoiler (mouse over to view)
I was really enjoying this.
The two main characters were really good together and the plot was quite good too. But one thing I really hate in manga is when the main character is forced into sex with somebody else (other than the other main lead he is intended for) it's a real turn-off and it got worse later on in the manga and was looking like he was just going to become that other guys slave which was totally un-sexy, I couldn't stand it anymore, it lost its hotness - how am I supposed to enjoy the romance between the main two characters when he keeps getting used by someone else?
Sorry but no. I had to ditch it in the end. Soo disappointed, it had lots of potential.

I didn't like this when I first started reading it. Yes, it has BEAUTIFUL art and interesting characters... but all the damn rape and freaky sex was a huge turn off. But I kept reading... I got used to the random sex and started to like the characters and their relationship (for the most part). Until...
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
The threesome with Feilong. Like what the fuck? Isn't Asami supposed to be possessive?
It completely pissed me off. I'm not sure I'll ever finish this. It just got too ridiculous.
This review probably isn't very helpful. Honestly, I just wanted to vent my anger.

A Sexplosion Of Erotic Proportions.  
by CurlyJoe
April 1st, 2012, 6:16pm
Rating: 9.0  / 10.0
Plot 8.5/10
Art 9/10
Romance 8/10
Eroticism 9.8/10

This is a manga that every yaoi fan has to read. I only read oneshots, and I adore this one. I actually am loving the plot, and the sex is graphic enough to be enjoyed (also frequent enough to please me). The uke is masculine enough not to creep me out (I don't read ones with what look like boys under 16), and the bishounen are divine. Read it. Love it. Have sweaty dreams about it.

P.S.: Be prepared for rape, almost all of the sex is either rape, or a little forced. If you hate Stockholm syndrome type romances (Raped until he likes it), then this won't be for you!

PPS: The threesome scene...is more than I could ever ask for. *o*

Oh and BTW: Who ACTUALLY reads Yaoi for the plot?!?! Go read a novel for god's sake, as this stuff is for kinky sex and basically porn.

GREAT...if it's your thing

Rating: 10.0  / 10.0
Here's the thing. If you like the traditional spunky, resisting uke, and the strong, sultry, forceful seme...this is YOUR manga. This series defines those roles and takes it to a beyond perfect level.

But if you're looking for a serious, realistic, angst-ridden drama that flowers into a beautiful and meaningful relationship that comments on the human experience...well, I don't know if this is for you.

Ayano Yamane is brilliant not only in her art (my FAVORITE style...gorgeous), but in her ability to create these endearing characters that we come to care about. Yes, there is a lot of rape. Yes, some of the plot is contrived and unrealistic. But it's a fast-paced, mafia vs. yakuza story with an irresistible uke caught in the middle. If that sounds even a little appealing, you will LOVE this series.

It's a classic.

Rape Rape Rape, ugh.

About the only saving grace for this manga is the art--I'm a huge fan of Ayano Yamane's art style, and despite the horrific content of this story and the cliched BL plot, the art will always get a nod from me.

That being said, this has got to be one of the most overrated series of all times, with people panting for the art style while handwaving all the horrible crap that's included--rape is a successful trope in BL because idiot consumers keep supporting it. How about giving more credit to the series that treat rape as a horrific incident (see: Nekota Yonezou's 'Michiru Heya' for example) rather than a stepping stone to a ~beautiful relationship~?

BEST YAOI MANG E.V.E.R

February 13th, 2012, 7:43am
Rating: 10.0  / 10.0
Yeah, it goes without saying since everyone in the yaoiland must (or should) have known Ayano Yamane and her amazing works. This series so far is the 1st in my list. The art is the first thing that attracted me, it's so smooth, cute but not too cute like some shoujo or shota. The story lines are brilliant and the plots are just...the best.

Takaba - the main uke - is just my fav type of uke. He has well-build, a little muscular but not too much. His personality is very interesting and hard to read. His will is strong and I just loveee his stubbornness. Although he always acts like a man but i think he's nothing more than an arrogant kid.

And Asami - the seme. He must be the top of the top semes in yaoi world. I mean really, who could win over this person? He is like...perfect, from the look to the personality. And the best thing is, he's not the type of guy who is always overprotective his lover. The way he shows his love to Takaba is so cute (and sick sometimes). I just so so so love this man.

I also love lots of other mangas such as Crimson Spell and Nekota Yonezou's works (especially Elektel Delusion and Otona Keikenchi) but i guess there will be no other yaoi manga that can take away the 1st place from Viewfinder in my list.

LOVE AYANO SENSEI!!!!
