^ This. This is the reason I read Harada. Honestly, I am not a huge fan of BL that is nothing but the sex scene tied together by minimal dialogue and no real plot - this is one of the reasons most of my favorite BL series are multiple volumes. However, Harada is to weave really deep stories into her works while maintaining all the hot and heavy scenes.
IMO, Harada's works are less "porn with plot" and more "psychological love stories with graphic sex scenes". Which in the world of BL is a welcome deviation from the norm.
Harada is one of my all-time favorite mangaka. I love how she is not afraid to explore situations regardless of how they are viewed by society. Her portrayal of twisted and psychological situations is so masterful and interesting, that I can't help but want to read each of her stories as soon as they are translated. (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
