like it managed to be bittersweet and disturbing while still having shoowa's signature zaniness at the same time. the lover's name is bacon. i can't. i won't spoil the story, just read it.

Not very smart

Rating: 6.0 / 10.0

I adore dark and deep stories but so far these are not very smart and the characters are just so stupid I can't get into the darkness of them. I still like these themed oneshot collections and the stories have some reading value. Those who aren't as picky with logic and characters motivation as me would probably have a blast with this.

First chapter

Rating: 10.0 / 10.0

I would give 10/10 for the first chapter,it was the darkest of the ones translated. Tragedy is not my piece of cake and I usually don't like some elements that appear on the story but I liked how it went. The other stories weren't good enough for me. The anemone story was a little confusing.
Read it for the first chapter!

cheap shitty ridiculous abuse

There's nothing more into it. I like dark ambience when it's justified and well developed (sometimes even when it's for fun) but this has nothing to do with it. It pretends to be "deep" "extraordinary" and "groundbreaking" but those are nothing more than pious hopes. It's extraordinarily low, ridiculous and cheap. It even attempt to be a story that may happen in a real life... Sorry but it's Disappointing. Very. At least those 3 scanlated chapters. If someone likes it, I bet he never read any other story in this genre. I'd be pleased to give it 0 points.

It's not recommended.

Last one

I love dark stories. I look forward to the other stories in this getting scanslated as I really want to read it. I liked the last story about the counselor/student the most. The first one, anemone was creepy and great and although I do understand why the author portrayed it in such a confusing fashion as it was from the brothers point of view but I wish I got to see his emotions as he did the things he did. That one was amazing. I'd love to read more dark series like this.

As the tin says

I read Aoi Karte, Taigan, and Anemone. Anemone and Aoi Karte to me are the darkest of the three that have been scanlated so far.

The art of each of them are pretty good. The stories are rather short, though, probably in an effort to maintain the dark mystique.

Yes, as the title of the anthology says, these stories are dark, but they seem to be common themes in the BL/Yaoi genre and some shoujo, so really nothing too out of the world.

YOOOOOOOOO------

I feel like I have lived this long for this anthology. I freaking love dark BL stories.
Well, Anemone and Taigan no Koi are mediocre. It's melodramatic for drama's sake, too much so that it's noticeable and distracting. Interesting, though.
I'm upset that Nakamura Asumiko didn't contribute (sob). I'm really looking forward to reading Ogawa Chise's story, if they scanlate it.
