otakulys's manga / #Twisted(143)

Shunshou Nawageshou

Ongoing | matsumoto inaki | 2019 released

I read the comments and actually expected this to be way worse. It was too brief to really have an impact, though the ending was certainly cruel. It made me sad when his friend was so excited to hear from him and see him, when we know the true reason for all of it. Other than that, it was kind of rushed, and I skimmed the smut scene because I wasn't fond of the art, nor the type of sexual exchange. At any rate, it had potential to really offer a sucker punch at the end, but it's otherwise unremarkable.

Yokosu Inu, Mekuru Yoru

Ongoing | Nobara Aiko | 2000 released

Noooooo, update soon, please! I so rarely find manga that truly scratches that hurt/comfort itch. I crave this sort of thing. It's so dark and beautiful and messed up. It made me cry, but in just the right way. I'm not sure what to expect in the future, but I really hope that there's an update soon. I'm worried this has been abandoned completely, since it's been a while. There are so many things I love about this story. I wish there were more like it out there. At the same time, I wish that love triangles didn't have to end in someone "choosing." Why can't he be with both of them? They're all fucked up anyway. They're all so damaged, especially the ukes. You can't entirely blame them for doing stupid, selfish things, given the way they've been taught to survive. Anyway, I'm going to die if this isn't updated.

Renzoku Ambivalenz

Ongoing | Yoshida kansuke | 2000 released

What the... Okay, I know I've read the first story elsewhere, but I don't remember it having that ending. I also don't entirely get what it was talking about. Is the other guy a doppelganger? Is he a triplet? Is he a manifestation of the other half of one of the brothers? Either way, so weird and random. It had potential, but it was just too brief and all over the place. I have no problem with dark, gory, or disturbing, but that was just weird. The second story was weird and kind of gross. There was some serious dissonance between the two, like they weren't done by the same person. Is that the case? I need to look. Anyway, this is a fucked up collection, and I'm afraid of what to expect if more stories beyond the two get uploaded. What even...

Hideout (zin)

Complete | zin | 2000 released

Yuck. Gross art, gross dudes, gross actions. And he gets away with it. It's a fetish thing, so this is made for a very specific audience. I hope they find it, because I certainly was not the core demographic for this one.

U12 (Under 12)

Ongoing | Yamikawa Kou | 2000 released

This is so gross, but oddly satisfying. I worry about what'll happen to the girls in the long run, but I live underdogs killing against the odds. This is a fun take on that. Of course, hopefully it'll end with that gross old man getting a slow, agonizing death. Not that the girls can undo this "program" or whatever it is, but hopefully there's a satisfying conclusion, nonetheless. I really thought this was going to be on the hentai side, but the comments made me actually look. Glad I did, because some of these girls are awesome characters.

Rabbit's Foot

Ongoing | Pyo Ryu | 2000 released

Damn it. I didn't check to see when it was last updated, and now I have to just sit and wait for updates that may never come. What's worse, it appears the story has a tragic ending. This is all bad news for me. x_x I was really interested in this, but I knew it would be fucked up. I guess I was just hoping that there'd be something worthwhile at the end. Oh well. I guess it doesn't matter anyway, since this may never actually be updated. I looked at the raws and tried to fill in my own blanks, but it's not the same.

Nocturnal Flight

Complete | Haruta | 2000 released

Haha, definitely messed up, but it could be worse! I wish it were longer and played with the psychology of it more, but man,that poor kid. And the cycle continues. No way is this gonna be a healthy relationship, but I get the sense that this boy won't be able to walk away after. That supposed "sensei" is a piece of crap, of course, but certainly he does stuff like this all the time, moving on when he gets bored. Maybe someday he'll get what's coming to him.

Gintama dj - Hanbunko

Complete | Paraiso ,Harada | 2014 released

Through the first half, this was hands down the most fucked up of the Gintama DJs Harada has done, because he trusted his friends, and they were all happy together, only for them to turn on him and brutally rape him. That scene was so messed up and sad, but that was what I came here for, so I loved it. Once he just sort of gave in and stopped fighting, then went crazy, it lost some of the appeal. I liked the idea of them sharing him evenly, though. The three of them living together. I hope that happens, even though this is messed up. Harada is great with intentionally fucked up relationships. This just ended too abruptly to give it the satisfaction it could have had. They regret what they did, but can't let him go? Are they trying to let him go? I feel like it's just a mind break, and they're going to push him over the edge in the end.

Rapunzel (komoda)

Complete | komoda | 2000 released

Haha, wtf? XD But okay, I mean, sounds like they're a match made in heaven.

Godless Chamber

Ongoing | kharisma jati | 2000 released

Yeah, this author writes fucked up stuff exclusively, and this is definitely one of those. Most of his stuff isn't on this site, and I guess I understand why, but even with how sick and twisted his work tends to be, I kind of like it somehow. The art can be weird, but most of the time it's kind of pretty. I like that he has a lot of bisexual elements to his work, too. Buuuuuut, he's super fond of children being tortured and raped, etc. so you have to be able to stomach that to get to the rest of it. Sort of an enigma here, and I really don't know why I'm drawn to him. Usually this sort of thing would gross me out and upset me too much. I don't even know.
