gay porn star with supernatural powers to predict misfortunes in the future falls in love with his best friend but the feelings don't seem to be reciprocated. but, will his friend change his mind?
This manga follows the (mis)adventures of a trio of characters through three stories: a young porn actor, a writer who works for an occult magazine, and the writer's childhood friend, the illegitimate child of a yakuza boss. Psychic phenomenon, yakuza conspiracies - this manga truly has it all.
I loved this manga, and only a little bit because stories about the occult are my kryptonite. The interpersonal relationships are developed slowly against the backdrop of the stories and, in that sense, take a back seat. For me, this makes it all the more interesting: most of the drama stems from the mysteries, and it is a joy to see interpersonal dynamics change over the course of the three stories. In that way it feels a bit like a TV show where the characters develop through the story arcs of several episodes.
As a side note, I wouldn't tag this as infidelity or a love triangle, since the main plot has to do with two characters move from an initial uncommitted f***buddy relationship to realizing that perhaps they have feelings for one another. In this sense it feels a bit more mature in its understanding of relationships than other manga, and there really is no cheating as such. As a bonus, there is no dub con or rape at all. So if you're looking for a good series of supernatural mysteries with the development of a relationship in the background, definitely check these out.
Tsukasa is a magazine writer who has a gay porn star lover (Atsushi) that hears a screeching noise when something bad is about to happen. The two investigate a rumored haunted house, where they find lots of cats and end up keeping one after the skeleton of the lady who used to live there (and feed the cats) was found under the floorboards. Yui, a high school friend of Tsukasa's and a yakuza, later comes into the picture with a kid who claims to have been abducted by aliens. When Tsukasa starts investigating the group that Yui is a part of on his behalf, things are tense between Atsushi and Tsukasa, which makes Atsushi turn to Yui for comfort. Yui's brother (who Yui has loved for years) ends up kidnapping Yui and tries to kill him but is unable to and he disappears. The yakuza organization dissolves, which is what Yui wanted in the first place (and why he had Tsukasa investigating). After a month of recuperating with Tsukasa and Atsushi, Yui leaves (presumably to look for his brother).
