The story isn't a special one, but it's very enjoyable anyway, just because of how you get to follow them from before they get together and then further into their relationship. and the romance is mutual (no rape, abuse, etc).
I would've loved to read more about these two and see how they would manage to keep up their relationship in the future.
Very typical storyline, great art, nothing more. I find most of the characters pretty boring, it's like those common characters that you can find anywhere.
the stories were especially confusing. What I found most confusing were the finals of both stories. especially i didn't get first story.
What don't you get? I'm curious. It 's very simple
wow.....just wow. i felt like i was watching a movie. it was really great.
the serie goes like: Koujitsusei no Tobira - Jin to Neko wa Yobu to Konai - Nobody Knows - Non Tea Room
a child about 15-16, being neglected by parents, tossed off to some stranger, who raped him, leading child on to believe he was prostitutioning himself in exchange for living expences. The stranger was actually a teacher. He also said the boy was his special someone, and that's why he does these things(meaning rape) to him.
I've happened to read some morally wrong stories, but this by far is the worst one.
Wow, I guess that's one way to look at it. Are you sure yaoi is the genre for you? Because the plot you've read here is pretty common...especially the "rape" and the uke being oblivious and imbecilic. It's your prerogative to read whatever genre you want. I'm just trying to give you a "heads up" that this manga was VERY tame in comparison to a large percentage of yaoi. Maybe shounen ai is more to your liking - no sex unfortunately, but no "rape" either. I just see thousands (no exaggeration) of comments like yours and I am concerned that this genre will leave a "bad taste in your mouth" because of the prevalence of these "rape" plot devices. I'm not trying to be mean or pushy, just trying to warn you of what you will be reading in yaoi. My "already read" count is well over 1000 - all but 2 are yaoi - so I'm speaking from experience. I sincerely wish you the best of luck and a happy(er) reading experience in the future. (⌒▽⌒)
Thanks, lol..... But is it really OK for you that saying "i liked it" to whatever you read? I think, readers have the right to criticize. For me, "you raped me so i love you" is wrong.
Please understand, I never meant to criticize your opinion. I simply meant to warn you of the types of plots prevalent in this genre. I see so many "yaoi rape" hating comments and can't grasp the reason readers continue to read stories in a genre where something they detest is as common as cat shit in a litter box. I tried reading material in shoujo and josei genres, but found aspects in those genres unappealing, so I don't read stories in that genre. A simple solution, ne? Rather than gripe and moan over what I don't like, I expend my energy on what I do like. Life is too short to waste it on unpleasant things we can effortlessly change. At least, that's how I feel about it.
you think so? But for me, "to accept the events or (unpleasant things) as the way they are" is not right. At least we must declare that "they are wrong" even if they are in "fiction, movie or real life etc." Anyway i felt your kindness, thanks again.
For one- it's 2d, and two- go back to Harlequin romances if you have a problem with standard yaoi trope. It's a fantasy, no yaoi reader would actually get excited about a real child being victimized. Get off your moral high horse
Harlequin has rape too, just not as often.
What is harlequin? If dnt mind me asking because I am new to this stuff so i smt know all the terms and genres(￣∇￣")
I meant Dont* not "smt"
It is a company that publishes romance novels/manga aimed at a female audience.
Ohhh, i think i heard of that!!!! I got books from that company
The way the story is told and the events made it worse
The first story alone is good enough for me. I was not prepared to experience this heartache. Saitou and Suzuki's relationship needs some kind of closure and i can't even put into words about how i'm feeling right now.
Omg I feel your pain... I love the story, but I kinda wish I didn't read it cause right now my chest just hurt and feel so hurt.
But they both smiled when saying they would attend the reunion! The feels were incredible but i did feel like it was an ending... Or beginning again!
Agree, but still pain.
Chapter 1, 5 and 6 all belong to the same couple and all of them are great. I think I'd have liked them even without the small portion of shonen-ai it actually has, on Keita's existence alone. He really is the most lovable character in the bunch.
two guys constantly repeating to each other "ah, you're so beautiful" "ah, you're so cute" gets boring after a while.
I just feel sorry for the guy who actually got rejected in the love triangle thingy that happens later on...i kind of rooted for him
IKR ... *sigh* the kind guys always get hurt (〜￣△￣)〜
