I flat out love this manga! One of the fewer yaoi manga which addresses some serious issues like sexual molestation and abuse, but which gladly have the young person involved more realistic in that, you do what you have to do to get by sometimes, but you don't tell lies to yourself about "loving" this abuser even if the abuser says the disgustedly sickening crap about loving you. This is more of a realistic story of when a youth is sexually abused, yet also a love story, where there is a satisfying ending also. A bittersweet story of two young men who come together, men from different living situations and relationships, but who find the acceptance and love they crave in each other.

I've always thought its important to write stories like this, to give a view into what some people have to endure and sometimes can break free from and have a true love, but not to glamourise bad situations, or make them into a warped "romance" story between abuser and victim, especially when the ages are adult in authority to child/youth or its incestuous.

The artwork was really beautiful I thought, and the faces more expressive than many. I truly enjoyed reading this one. A powerful story, so bittersweet, with facets of what too many of us have gone through and what we want to break free from after making decisions or getting pulled into a way of life that doesn't satisfy our souls. One of the must-read's of yaoi if you want a serious, powerful theme. read more

This is a cute one-shot slice of life type yaoi manga. The main character is a young guy whose thoughts you read, which quickly take you into the plot of the story: a natural protector Fujita, tries to help Midori whom he thought was being taken advantage by a stalkerish person on a bus ride. His mistake causes Midori to miss his stop, yet Fujita quickly falls into worshipful love, apologizing in a variety of ways and becomes Midori's willing slave.

Per se, I do get tired of the yaoi manga characters which seem to have to state at some time during the story, "I don't know why he's doing that since he and I are both guys..." yet they let everything sexually happen as if it is an every day thing, yet its supposedly their first time.

It's a nice quickie, the graphics are rather explicit if you do like mild yaoi only, be aware of that, but I think its an enjoyable story for anyone who likes this type of genre.

I know there are fans of this particular theme within a genre, featuring incest as the sole plot, and I would say I have enjoyed some related types stories like "Brother", but this one in particular I greatly disliked. I know this is fiction, and the writer is completely free to write about what they wish, but too many impressionable people read these, even if they are labeled 18+, a lot younger ones read them.

I don't believe any story which glamorises incest, and a forcible situation especially. It's simply criminal, and in this particular story where the writer has the uke warped into believing he is really in love with his brother and this relationship is "o-k", I found it distasteful. Gives the thought that being forced such a situation and then making yourself believe, yes! yes this must be love!? No, thanks. To each his and her own, but this I wouldn't read again, recommend or buy to support the writer. read more

Like Wild Fangs, the artwork is outstanding if you like the type. It rather reminded me of Wild Rock. The long, lean bodies and sleek hair, the unbelievably beautiful face of Kiri, the man-beast. And the storyline is strong, combined with what one read in the brother manga, Wild Fangs, Kiri's story is both interesting and heart-warming. Just the right amount of angst, no more, this was perfect. A very enjoyable read one won't be sorry for, if you like yaoi, GOOD yaoi, strong stories, good plot and pace, and moderate sex ( no graphic sex, just a romanticised but very definite view of Kiri's and Mikhail's lovemaking). Sweet, wonderful, exciting. A Keeper! (Can't wait to see when they publish more!) read more

This one just made me laugh and laugh, it was so silly yet fun and unique too! Featuring one hell of a Flower Fairy who satisfies a young man's hunger in more ways than one, it's short, sexy and so very cool. I'm just glad the plant wasn't poisonous ;-)

The artwork is really eye-catching at times, great detail, very beautiful and distinct. A dramatic story that really grabs you from the very first pages. I come across this manga by accident, and was so glad I did.

It's a detailed story although the page count isn't high, a lot of info is discussed for a manga and things go on. It is a continuing series, so I will look forward to reading more from this writer.

Hmm, hmm, I must admit this one was hot but maybe because it was so explicit. The stories were short of course, and no need for beginning or end. They were cute, and since they were age same characters, this didn't bother me so much although I wondered do all kids have that much sex? I didn't LOL Hmm, well, the last one I didn't like because of the age difference, college student to 6th grader.

A flash fic by Yamane, two dads, two sons, double the amount of desire. Great artwork and detail as usual, the story isn't deep, but its ok. It's like watching a 30 min. sexy sitcom, no need for advanced beginning or detailed ending. We know what's going to happen. Lots of funny moments, and hot action at the climax peak. You can't go wrong with this one shot if you love yaoi.

Chapters 1-5: It can be a secret, naughty shame to allow someone to use you, to find that special lustful place in you, but it's relief when you can reason it away that you were forced (even if you really want it! ;-) and that a sexy man of uncommon power captures your heart as he blackmails your soul and mind. Irony that man is a brain surgeon! ha!
This manga explores the feelings of self-hatred and low self-esteem which allows a person to let themselves be hurt over and over again by any who want to.

This one of the more explicit yaoi, but I don't find the characters especially attractive. What a bunch of irresponsible sex addicts! LOL I finished this manga, but was actually glad the first part was over.

Chapter 6 was the best, it was sexy, short and sweet, but the first 5 got on my nerves. Chapter 7 was also alright, though I didn't understand the dialogue fully, yet the sex scenes were nice ;-)

I liked this one from the very beginning. The story wasn't the deepest drama, but the character Kei was sympathetic. The pace was even, the artwork appealing, and one could understand some of Kei's needs perfectly. I loved his outspoken nature, and the flashes of humour were really witty. Overall, I really admired the characters of Fujii and Kei's honest answers. I get really frustrated in manga or anime when characters are portrayed as never speaking their minds, being honest about their feelings, or correcting someone's bad behavior or rudeness. You don't have to worry about that in this manga. Straight up honesty! Great stuff yaoi lovers! read more
