A short ,concise story of sadomasochism .It has the ingredients to make it engrossing without going overly contrived opting for shock factors .It should be palatable for general readers but some of the elements may feel dicey .Be warned.
The art is one thing which comes out very bad.It is dated and held back the theme with its lack of vibrant expressions.The background feels dull and empty most of the times.The character expressions toggle between droopy eyes and blank expression.And all of them felt rehashed.
The story starts off with a boy Takuto commanding his three year older ,23 year old cousin ,Kiriko licking off the
...
remains of a cake plastered on the floor.She is then made to be a human chair for him.Later it is revealed that he is inversing and renacting the scenes which was forced upon him by her during their childhood.We get to know that the lady was actually projecting her desires and distress caused by it ,onto him.The switching back and forth between past and present becomes a common theme throughout the story.The two keep on moving forward ,twisting and turning seamlessly trying to find their real selves.Also the story is from the pov of the boy.The mystery surrounding Kiriko's real desires while being bismerched amplified the narrative if anything .
There are no notable side characters except one girl who is used as a catalyst to further the debauchery between the duo.
The author was planning for a second part.But after a decade and a half passed guess the plan is shelved.That didn't make it feel unfinished.The ending was alright ,nothing groundbreaking but no complaints.
In conclusion it is worth a read if one is comfortable with the subject.
