Blue Lust

Complete | Hinako (ひなこ) | 2015 released

Sort of strange and sad so far. I imagine the main two get together, but I kind of wish it wouldn't go that way. I'd love to see a story where a straight character is such dear, loving friends with another boy who struggles with accepting his sexuality. Anyway, I'm interested and hope the manga stays intriguing.

Inside Full Bloom

Ongoing | Kuki wakame | 2000 released

So heartbreaking, and the fact that it hasn't been picked up again yet makes it worse, since it's left hanging. I wish I could read and understand the raws! The only thing is, the rape bullshit pisses me off, though it's nothing new. Plus I hate that the seme is openly gay and also predatory, like being out means he's automatically a rapist. So gross. But I care a lot about the healing process for the main character, which is why I want more. So rarely does yaoi actually dive into the pain and struggles of someone growing up in a very rigid and homophobic environment. I mean, I love stories where homophobia doesn't exist and a lot of people seem to be into the same sex, but it's nice to see real issues examined, for the catharsis if nothing else. Hopefully we get chapter two in the near future.
