I don't know if it's a joke, Kiss, but I see it as a lot darker than others do. I think you can read it on a level where you just accept things, much as Atsumu appears to, and say, yes, it's just yaoi, accept the story as it is given. I read it and think, "What the characters say doesn't completely add up, and the partial explanation in no way changes the personal responsibility of each seme for his actions." This isn't a slam on Ogawa Chise, this story, or people who enjoy it. It's just a darker reading, from someone who sees Kuze as using the situation as an excuse to be abusive and possessive, and someone who still wants to know what is going on with Karino, even though I will never buy into the "protection" story given by Atsumu. It's not that I am confused, it's just that I analyze the story and see something darker behind it.
But Kiss, I know we *both* want to know what happens to Azusa. :)

This is definitely a very dark yaoi. The author seems to have an idea of where she's going, though. I'm interested in seeing how it's all resolved.
this manga should have had a bitter sweet ending,even a sad one....but this path seems like a joke -_-"
