now for the serious comment.
i was pretty sure itou-san would kill kyosuke when he said he'd rather die than being apart. there are a lot of parts where i thought it would turn out twisted or that itou-san would behave like a psycho. like when he was sharping the knife (needle?) or at the old house with golds and money or when he shot a spy while hugging (?) kyosuke. BUT NOPE i got all of that wrong.
itou-san is very gentle and thoughtful towards kyosuke. i can really feel the love between them. also, no rape yayyy!
the ending is kinda bittersweet. (SPOILER) too bad for Itou-san, kyosuke lost his memories. despite that, itou-san waits for him patiently for years. but thats okay, i am positive they'll have a fresh start of relationship after the incident (need a sequel pls).
and for the second story wtf how did the sensei suddenly become submissive??
For the second story I think the sensei has a mixed personality between a masochist and a sadist (though heavily masochistic). He pushes his master to extreme points as a way to test how far their mental limits go. So towards the ending his true feelings come out at the bliss of finding a master that isn't afraid and strong enough to stay on top ╮(￣▽￣)╭
wow what are you, a mind reader? thanks for the explanation!
yeah, during the whole story. I always have the feeling that Itou-san constantly fight hí s dark side, the urge to put Kyosuke down and force him. But because Itou-san loves him so so much and he never hurt Kyosuke, not even one.
THIS IS OFFICIALLY MY FAVE MANGA
