otakulys's manga / #rape(198)

ANIMAL TORTURE WARNING! Not as graphic as the human stuff, but graphic enough. That being said: SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPER messed up. I don't believe another yaoi title can top this one. I've read some messed up crap--horse rape, cannibalism, a guy getting cut in half while another dude fucks his loose intestines--but this really takes the cake. It's sad and disturbing, definitely a miserable story. It's fucked up from beginning to end, with no relief, and it's hardcore to boot. I was disappointed in a few elements, mostly along the lines of nothing truly coming to a head with the case, and the ending felt too much like a final jump scare for me, especially when it's just a flash of him still as miserable as ever. Definitely not for the faint of heart or weak of stomach. No happy endings here.

Wow, I've been meaning to read this forever, and I can't believe it took me this long. This was not at all what I was expecting. I hate that I have to wait now. I hope it updates more soon. But seriously, I went in expecting way more cliches and shallow character motivations. This is an intense thriller, not just plotless smut. I'm always looking for stuff like that, but rarely does it bay off in this way. Plus, gorgeous art. I'm scared it's gonna have a sad ending, or a bittersweet one, and I'm pretty sure at least one of the characters I like will die, so that sucks, but I'm hoping it's all worth it in the end.

Suuuuuper messed up. But it was psychological and fascinating like everything Harada does. I don't typically read doujinshi, and I've never seen this anime, but I love Harada, so I thought I'd read it regardless. I feel like I got everything without knowing the backstory, just from the context of this oneshot. I've heard this one described as the most disturbing yaoi, but it's not even in the top ten. Definitely messed up, but nobody got eaten alive, or raped by a horse, or disemboweled during sex, so it could have been worse. XD (And has been!) If you like mind rape and twisted stories, especially violence and torture, this is the manga for you. Otherwise, maybe go read something fluffy.

I'd have to look at it again, but as I recall, I read this and it was disgusting. Rape to love is always nasty, but adding in just how horrible he was to him, too. It didn't even try to "yaoiland" it up and make it seem like secretly he wanted it.

"And he's letting me live!" Aw, how romantic! I really wanted to enjoy this manga, but it was BS like that that killed it. Even with the rape to love, which I loathe, I was gonna give it three stars because I feel like there isn't enough decent yakuza/hitman type stuff out there. But the moment he yelled at JJ for being "kind" when he "slept with" Azusa, I just couldn't do it. Not the worst thing I've ever read, but give me a break. "When you were raping me, you shouldn't have been nice! Now I want to be your waifu!" Come on, yaoiland. Come on.

Wtf, never have I read something that was SO shitty and SO beautiful at the same time. The art is gorgeous, and I want to keep reading, but my god. It was gross enough when they were raping him left and right (and lol at the guy saying it isn't fun to watch when it isn't consensual like, uh, excuse me? What do you call the last dozen times you've been watching AND participating?), but when he told the brothers that when he was almost gang raped, he felt bad for THEM, I was like, I'm out. Flipping through, I see it only gets more disgusting. "Semen! I want semen!" Honestly, weird as it is, I'd be fine if it hadn't been rape from the start. If for whatever reason, he'd been into it, and they'd all come together to make a baby, fine. The way he acts during sex is creepy, but whatever. It's the fact that this was rape for the first half, then they all just pretend it never happened that makes all the other creepy stuff that much creepier. The youngest brother seems mentally disabled, and they're all just total freaks with no redeeming qualities beyond being drawn beautifully. This woman needs a writer to help her art find the outlet it deserves. Cause, believe me, having a fragrant anus is not as sexy as you seem to think it is, ma'am.

The art is pretty, so typically I would be slightly forgiving of some obnoxious but typical yaoi tropes. But this doesn't even have to do with the pathetic uke. What about the other prostitutes? What happened to the one that was flipping out and begging them to stop? Did he get executed? I couldn't figure out what was going on at the end of that scene. But the fact that all of these people had been mistreated and tormented, there's no forgiving that. I don't care if this rape to love BS ended in the seme being sweet to the uke. What the hell. The uke isn't the only victim that matters. Super grossed out right now. I always hate how rape and abuse are okay as long as there's twoo wuv at the end, but it doesn't usually branch out to other people who never get their own happy ending. I really liked a lot of the art, and if they'd gone the dark route and really explored how awful this place was, I would have liked it. Instead, all is forgiven because the seme had a sad childhood. Boohoo. All of these people you're raping and forcing into prostitution aren't having a grand time either, and they aren't doing that crap to others.

"I'm too scared to ask, but I think maybe Shinobu is gay." ... .... .......... What makes you say that, guy who currently has the dude's dick up his ass??? This is the definition of what I hate in yaoi. For whatever reason, the uke is always magically worried about the seme or starts to find him attractive in the middle of rape, and it's like this weird romance. It's so gross. I'm intrigued by the strangulation fetish, so I checked this out, hoping it would be more interesting than your typical rape to love bullshit. It isn't. It just adds choking. Take the choking out and it's the same as a million other stories. I understand that Japanese culture encourages meekness, but I feel like the lengths ukes go to help others in these things is kinda pushing it. This story would have been cute if they'd started as consensual fuck buddies with no feelings between them, but because the guy just jumps the other guy, it's gross. Anyway, they were all supposed to be kinky, kinda twisted stories, but they came across as average stories with weird shit shoved in there. I know a lot of people are confused by the second story, but I kinda liked it. I wish it were a lot longer. You don't see a lot of stuff focusing on MPD, and when it is, it portrays the person as dangerous or something. This wasn't super accurate, but it was better than a lot of stuff out there. I also liked the fourth story. It was very sad, but I like that moment of realization, how he coped with the trauma and the implications of all the times he's seen monsters. The third story, uh... I'm not sure how to feel going into a manga that starts off talking about bloody diarrhea. Not my thing, but there are people out there who hate how yaoi guys don't poop, or at least bitch about it. So here ya go! Also, why is there a tragedy tag? Am I missing something? So far, no one has died.

Very, very odd and quite gross manga. It was interesting, and I liked some of the exploration behind the psychology. I do feel like something fell flat near the end, though. I kept waiting for him to kill one of his boys. He kills things that he loves, doesn't he? The whole thing was bizarre, as it should have been, but it never quite reached the point I was looking for. Also, there was no real punishment here, nor is his fate satisfying, because his children are monsters who may continue this stuff, so... But yeah, I would have liked it more if it had expanded beyond that little group of creeps. Also, despite all the murder, it's always animal death that gets to me, so I had to mark it down a bit for that, too.

Ugh, so sad! At least there was the little text that said they'd meet again someday, but man, what a downer. I would have rated it higher if it were longer and more fleshed out, but for what it was, I did like it. I wish we could get a sequel to this where they do get to rekindle their friendship again. And they both end up with good people who treat them well.
