yes i agree there was that one short story black raider which I didn't particularly like but I did enjoy the rest. They were cute and should be given a chance. They're not just rape, rape, rape. Yes it has to do with the red light district, so some of their lives may be sad but only black raider involved the "non-con" which as always turns out to be consensual. What I really would have liked to see more of was the story between the young master and musician...I really wonder how that ended up working out.

I read the first story that my search engine directed me to which I think was chapter four 'raider' and it was the most positively enfuriating thing I have ever read. I don't usually mind rape in manga but this time it really annoyed me. The main character was totally and completely wronged by the guy who took him as his slave and yet at the end the main character just accepts it all and gives that guy exactly what he wants.
True that's how most rape stories end up but this one was just sooo no.
*spoiler alert
The guy who rapes him does it for revenge but the reason behind it was illogical. The guy he rapes who had been nothing but nice to him is made to endure all of his selfish revenge. And then the guy who is raped is just like oh I love you. I was hoping at least he would try to kill himself and then the rapist would get the emotional angst he deserved.
The whole story didn't make any sense at all.
Bear in mind however that my rating is really only for that one story. I couldn't bring myself to read any of the others.
