I just couldn’t get along with this one. I did read the whole thing, and I’ve seen the same idea executed much worse before, but it just had this edgy tone that I didn’t enjoy. It wasn’t even the incest that bothered me, it’s hard to say what I didn’t like. I think it felt like the author was trying way too hard?

This isn’t for everyone. Not only do you have to be ok with incest BL, you gotta be into a well unconventional love?
But, the art is amazing. Tamekou is Tamekou.

This is quite a decent read if you want an unhealthy, messed up relationship between two brothers who really need some serious therapy. In that regard, I think Tamekou sensei executed what they wanted to do pretty well. The art is quite divine as well. However, you won’t find any wholesome fluff here so if you want something cute, this isn’t the manga for you.

Definitely not for everyone! You have to be okay with incest and relationships that are… not healthy but not totally unhealthy? I feel like the story including some maladaptive behaviors/thought processes of the characters is pretty standard for Tamekou.
That said, if you’re okay with all of the above, the art is gorgeous and the story well executed.

Unlike other incest titles, the characters know it is wrong and warps thier feelings into very dark places. Extreme actions are taken to make it not/happen but both are equally as tainted as the other.
Definatly a you love it or hate it title. Contains non con (which isn’t non con). Thier relationship is complicated.
