otakulys's manga / #gang rape(19)

The way people were acting, I thought this was going to have a sad ending, but it was perfect! THIS is what I want. This is the hurt/comfort that I crave! Why can't there be more yaoi like this? Where the seme loves and protects his uke, and the harm comes from some other piece of crap? There's no force or rape to love or any of that garbage. Just real emotion. Plus, for me it's the psychology of trauma and the character working through it that draws me to violence and rape in manga, so it makes me sad that so often rape is romanticized or treated like a firm handshake. This was exactly what I was looking for. The beginning was a bit clumsy and rushed, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was very happy with where it went. I imagine people are freaking out because the rape was so graphic and the character actually had a realistic reaction to being assaulted, but the tags *did* say there was rape, and every chapter had a warning for violence, etc. So why are 90% of the comments people bitching about it? If you're a delicate person, skip stories that say that they contain violence and rape. At any rate, I really enjoyed this one, and it's the embodiment of my list, "Rape that Doesn't End in Love."

Golly, mister! You didn't have to have a bunch of guys gang rape me to show you liked me! Next time, just ask me out! Tee hee!

Yep, that's... pretty fucked up. I like some of the themes, but it's mostly just rape-kink smut, so sadly none of that goes anywhere. Could be worse, though.

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...

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.

Weird, but not as bad as I thought it would be based on some of the earlier elements. Sometimes I love this mangaka's art, and sometimes it's kinda meh. This one shifts back and forth, but it's kind of on the meh side. The plot could have been better. The ending is kind of weird and ambiguous. But at least they tried to include some intrigue. If it had been polished, I would have liked it more, but I'll give it a 3.5 for effort.

I haven't read all of the extras yet, but most of them. There are some things I would have changed in this story, but I liked it overall. I'm big on betrayal followed by a new, healing love, so this was great for that. I'll come back to this after I read everything else.

I loved this. I'll add more later.

Wtf. XD That's some misery porn right there. I like elements of that kind of conflict, but overall it just felt like a lot of kicking people when they're down. I guess we can see how the next life works out for them. Seriously, though, jesus christ.
