RoseMary's manga / #Novelist/Mangaka(95)

2007-released Collection of older works by Oumi Shinano: • Ch. 1 Where Miracle Exists? - Youth / Male Prostitute x Salaryman // Straight Seme // Older Seme // Reencounter • Ch. 2-3 Hisuiiro no Kaze / Wind of the Green Jade - Youth / High-school Student x Famous Novelist (the so-called “Hard-boiled man”) // Seaside Village // Half-Japanese Half-German Uke // Jade-green Eyes // Motorcycle // Family Drama // Older Seme > Wind of the Green Jade is actually the title of the story that the novelist wrote at the end of the story and dedicated to Midori. • Ch. 4 First Step - Dancing // Theater // Stage Actors // Older Seme - [[Also published in Yatte Yaru, Konya!, ch. 3 - mangago.me / read-manga / yatte_yaru_konya / an / yatte-yaru-konya--chapter-3.html / 3 /]] • Ch. 5 Love Song - Inter-linked to and set after the events of ch. 4, it's focused on the established adult couple of Saeki and Yoshiki. > Too bad for the one-sided sex / "rape as a start of relationship" often found in Oumi Shinano's stories! Here, the only story that doesn't have such element is the last one. Anyway, overall I liked all the stories, but for the plot and my personal tastes I really liked the first story and the second story (the title story). For those two maybe I'd have given it 4 stars...

[[SPOILER]] --- In the end, Clark kills Alex, saying he hates him and revealing all his true thoughts about him. He then says it was revenge (because Alex killed the psychiatrist, Clark's ex who fell in love with Alex when he was his patient). > Due to his childhood and how he grew up, Alex became mentally unstable like that. But somehow he was trying to change. To seek the help of the psychiatrist and trying to follow his advices was a sign of that! But then, the doctor's idea to introduce Clark to him was certainly a grave mistake! Clark was the type of person Alex absolutely shouldn't have met at that point of his life! All went wrong from then on. In fact, I think the best outcome would have been if Clark handed him to the authorities at some point, and he had many opportunities to do so, like the inspector who knew everything told him, but he didn't. After all, Clark was a twisted character who indulged Alex only to sate his interest in crime stories. And after the doctor was killed, he decided to kill him himself. In any case, at the very end, it was too late...to get out of there, it was kill or be killed.
