This is worse than I expected! An orphaned, poor boy is picked up by a wealthy person where is he being cared for and taught to read and write. The disturbing thing is that nurture turned to love and urge to hold the 10-year-old boy. The sad reality is that 5 additional males are included as supplementary characters who are encouraging this relationship.
in one chapter, one of those friends is encouraging the wealthy man to give the child what he wants because he is older than his age!!! Don't paedophiles use this excuse all the time?
@alheab the boy is 15, not 10, if you havent read the manga that you shouldnt comment like that. 15 years old was considered an adult in the past. the hero is NOT pedophile.
I read the entire story but I just couldn't get into it. The story read like a justification for a pedophile. Makoto is an orphan of 15 that gets pick up by a rich guy Ozaki who is 27. Ozaki said he was 27 and later in the story he tells himself something like: what am I thinking with a kid that's 12 years younger than me. Come on 27 minus 12 equals locked up.
The last chapter was really cute and I wouldn't mind reading more of that story. This would be 4 stars if not connected with the other story.
The art of sensei is always the best, the story such a sweet thing that can melt my heart again and again >.< really enjoyable, I'll look after the sensei's new works.
In the Taishou era a rich family's son picks up an orphan boy and fosters the boy into a little prince. He finally takes the boy abroad to find the boy's English father who abandoned him. Extra story: the hero consults a mysterious girl by cellphone about his one-sided love. But the girl turns out to be his one-sided lover...
This mangaka does good art but this story is about a wealthy dude that forces himself on a child, and said child falls for his rapist. Yeah no, not okay.
Ch. 4 - Fujii has an email friend whom he loves but that friend (Akii) says he has someone he loves. That friend thinks he is talking with a girl named Junko. On the other hand at school Fujii is lead around the finger by Kousaka, that seems to like Fujii a lot. What if Akii and Kousaka were the same person? I love this story! Ch. 1 to 3 - An orphaned boy is picked up by a wealthy person.
