"Re-read chapter 9 (Masatsugu’s meeting with Chang) or chapter 13 (Masatsugu’s meeting about Chang’s death) for context on this chapter." - Tigrin
I fee you and I kinda wish they would add a summary before each ch.
Everything is great, but I need an update.
And here I thought there was at least one normal, non-twisted or non-tragic relationship in this manga. Guess I was wrong.
Still adore the Seinen-ish mafia plot.
Thanks for chapter 32!! I miss Yuki and Tetsu!
This manga is unexpectedly deep, dark and... well, "beautiful". Aside from all the misfortunes that happened to Yuki (poor thing!), the story is actually, how can I say, rough, real, and I can honestly say I love all the characters shown so far.
It's definitely not your typical yaoi... in fact, the yaoi side is only a sort of "frame" to the whole story, meaning that it makes the events happen and it's not just a "treat" meant for the yaoi lovers. Really, I'm so glad I've read this. Sometimes the events are as brutal as a punch in the stomach but hey, it's the mafia world guys, and in my opinion it's really well portrayed here.
Give it a try, I bet you won't regret it
Thanks for the scan and translations! I love this manga ^^
Is this dead now? I was thinking of trying to give this a go.
Now, there's the back story... time to get torn and broken </3
I really like this one, not so much lustiness hahaha and unnecessary sex which are typical in yaoi.. There is more depth into it.. psychologically blaaah. Up to now, its more like shounen ai than yaoi Haha!
I gotta say I was not expecting this to be soo good. Especially not from something tagged Yaoi ...
But it is!!!! It's damn freaking awesome. Characters are likeable (no gay stereotypes here), action and story are really good.
Protagonist has a dark~ish background story. You end up thinking that in order to survive you might have done the exact same thing.
Manga like this really make you think about the ranking system and all ... now i feel bad for all the crap I read and voted with 5 stars. This is def a 10!
And for all the haters out there that can't see this for what it is because of the yaoi tag ... amazingly there's a lesson in here for you as well ...
It seems there's another group of people that scanlated this manga, you can find dl links for chapter 19-26 here, as well as DP's chapter 1-18.
I have to say that I usually dislike yaoi, but I don't really count this story as that. The romance is more shonen-ai (as the current tag says) and pretty subtle, with a lot of other stuff going on. I see it as more of an underworld story than romance, and it's a pretty interesting story. Also, so far the romance hasn't exceeded a kiss (and one vague flashback but there wasn't really any detail shown). Unless it has the "smut" tag, it's usually a pretty safe read.
Also, despite how it sounds, the "visits" mentioned in the description don't really have anything to do with the shonen-ai or yaoi tag.
A lot of viewers have ended up here from browsing the yaoi tag you know, and thus it's properly tagged. If you've read this then you've done it on your own accord.
About how someone could like this, well think of it as the same way some of you guys(not everyone of course) enjoy watching girls make out, except we like it when there's romance and an actual story behind all that(most of the time that is XD). Also, again, a lot of the fans have ended up reading this because they were browsing the yaoi tag so in other worlds yaoi is part of the reason we enjoy this manga.
I understand that not everyone is comfortable with reading this sort of manga, and of course there is nothing wrong with voicing your opinion, but please refrain from using insulting words because there really is no point. The only thing you'll probably achieve is upsetting someone and that's really unnecessary. Instead you could just go and read something of your own taste and preferences.
Anyway, Kyuugou-sama has really done it this time.This is definitely one of her best works yet and i really adore the story and the characters. And it's true, this is not your typical yaoi manga, it kinda reminds me a bit of Yoneda Kou's works with the whole yakuza theme and all, but this manga really odes have a very unique feel to it. Dark but very deep story, I really hope that they'll update this soon.
It's pretty good, actually. Don't judge a book by its penis.
Maybe.
but after awhile, the story got really good.
Also this is not your typical Yaoi. It just had dark themes. I wouldn't skip this manga just because it has the tag yaoi.
