I think it totally depends on what you like and dislike, but I can tell you why I think it's not worth your time. I like characters who are independent and assertive, opposed to obsessively clingy under the name of love. I hate characters without self respect. Further, I can understand rape if it's necessary for the plot or you just go read it in porn, that's a different matter. But, seme who doesn't care about the other party is a big No for me.
thank you! i wont continue because i totally agree with your points! i hate when i read 90’s, early 2000’s yaoi/shounen ai and its the whole raped because i didnt know how to act but you still love me but i treat you like crap but were in love... and when the art is so pretty too.. it breaks my heart
Ikr, many old mangas, including this one have good art styles. It's such a shame.
Have you tried Love Mode vol 2. I don't like vol 1
thanks for the rec! i read it, it was cute, the storyline was so late 90s!! but had the dreaded dorito head/chin implant but their eyes were pretty
Wait are we talking about same manga?
I'm talking about this. It was kinda dark and so sweet and I cried

I think it's worth to read it all for you to understand. Like you I was getting off by the plot and pace 'cos I have recently been infected by the quick development syndrome but I continued and I'm glad I did.
Oh, and I disagree with what @Arya said, from what I got, it wasn't that Azuma (seme) didn't care about Jou but more like he overly cared about Jou; his track of thought and actions weren't the best, though but at the end... well, I think it was a good end, I wanna more...
can someone tell me if this is worth the read? ive reached up to chapter 13, but with the rape.. and the way azuma acts.. and the way i get so confused.. as the way the story line is going.. but i like the art a lot!! even though i can see it slowly changing (not in a good way)
