This is a gorgeous, dark story. I absolutely loved it, and though the relationship between the main two has its issues, there's no rape to love. All of the abuse comes from other parties.
NOTE: I've seen numerous comments saying "how can you rape a prostitute?" Guys, educate yourselves. Consent is all that matters. If someone doesn't agree to a certain act, and you do it anyway, it's rape. It doesn't matter if you paid them first. People are not trade goods.
Very sad and sweet manga. The rape in the story is treated as something genuinely awful, upsetting, and wrong.
Not exactly a healthy relationship going on here, but all rape occurs outside of the main couple. In fact, the seme in this story is sort of submissive to the uke.
Tricky because while the main character doesn't rape the uke, he's involved in it to a degree. It's a complicated story, but I ultimately feel it still fits on this list, especially because it portrays rape realistically, which is what the majority of the manga on this list do. It's really hard to find rape that's treated as horrific and damaging in the long term, after all.
This is a very bizarre and disturbing manga, so viewer beware. It's all about revenge and sex and violence. Also, the one involved in all of this is a little kid. But it does fit the list as he doesn't end up with any of the people who rape him. Downer ending for those who are in it for the romance. Awesome ending for those who are sick of characters getting away with raping guys out of "love."
Another incredibly screwed up manga. This time not with a little kid, though I think the character may be underage. There's nothing sweet and fluffy about this. It's a brutal oneshot with a sad ending.
I think the main character is the only one who *doesn't* rape the uke in this one. Lots of violence and death, too, so reader beware.
The rape doesn't happen with the character you expect, and though there's some weird element to it, like we're supposed to feel sympathy for the rapist, he and the victim definitely don't end up together.
This manga has two stories with rape in it. Only the first one applies. There are four translated as of Feb. 2016, and they're all disturbing, dark, and depressing. Steer clear if you're bothered by death and violence. The last story has typical yaoi rape, where the tortured, abused subject ends up in a relationship with his tormentor. The main difference is that the story is *meant* to be sick and wrong.
This is basically smut and tragedy, but there's no true romance between the main guy and his rapist(s). The rapist is obsessed with him, though, so it's a little ambiguous whether or not they'll be "together." It just isn't portrayed as a consensual thing, either way.
