But it has to focus on the bad sides of life, like abuse, drugs, alcohol, violence, bad friends, maybe death of important people, and other drama/tragedy stuff. I'm in the mood to read some dark stuff I don't care about genre, so it can be everything. But it has to be a male main character. I hope there is something like this. Thanks! ________________ ~♥♥♥Yaoi, Gay Books, Music, Manga, Anime, Internet Connection, Prison Break, Animals And Fantasy. They're My Drug, My Hope, My Dreams And My Obsession♥♥♥~

But anyways: Cantarella God Child Vassalord Akusaga Corsair Pet Shop of Horrors Wild Adapter and maybe some of Minekura-sensei's other works. The Ravages of Time maybe... can be considered somewhat dark seeing as it lacks the bright points mangas usually have. Probably cause they didn't alter history. IDK since I have no idea about the original anyways. BEWARE OF YAOI! lol well... yea.

I think I like almost all genres. If there are more manga's, tell me. So, thanks again! ________________ ~♥♥♥Yaoi, Gay Books, Music, Manga, Anime, Internet Connection, Prison Break, Animals And Fantasy. They're My Drug, My Hope, My Dreams And My Obsession♥♥♥~
