This comic was so good but Sakamoto drastically changed the pace of the story. Instead of Jonathan slowly coming to terms that Dracula may not be how they appear as in the book, suddenly Jonathan is a prisoner because Dracula told him straight up "that story I told about Radu Tepes is about my younger brother and I was there 400 years ago. Also you're my prisoner now." It ruins whatever dread the original novel had of Jonathan growing increasingly suspicious and anxious regarding his stay at Dracula's castle. This Dracula doesn't even bother to give Jonathan a full what, 48 hours to carry the (mistaken) impression that they are even a tad normal, it's just straight to diabolical scheming and being evil. I understand the novel is long, but it's like Sakamoto didn't even try to truncate the story in a way that would be satisfying while keeping with the spirit of the original novel--that of creeping dread, mystery, and 'oh, I've made a huge mistake. How do I leave here without breaking etiquette AND tipping off Dracula I'm about to flee?" What a waste.

This is the sort of stuff I wish people made more of. Everyone is demented, everyone has issues, everyone is just some sick needful creature trying to stuff themselves with each other to fulfill their base wants and desires.

It's yaoi, of course. The plot is that a demon lord has lost his powers and his court of fellow demons (named after demon lords of Hell, if I remember correctly) proceed to have sex with him. Yes it's SA, but I want to know if there's been any progression of the story since the last time I've read it. Can't find it.

You see it in yaoi manga, mostly, though I've also seen it in shojo (._.) where the male character essentially says "[You look/act such a way that] makes me want to rape you". Sometimes even the ukes say "Rape me" and I have no idea how to feel about that. (⊙…⊙ )

What do you make of this? Do you think there's something lost in translation, that the word "rape" is their shorthand of saying "ravish" or "to be rough" with? Is it supposed to be kinky, like consensual non-consent? Or do the mangakas not really grasp how extreme and serious a crime like rape really is?

I mean, if it's your kink, it's your kink, but seeing such a phrase stated so bluntly is really jarring because here in the West it's just..simply not said. The word "fuck" is usually used to replace "rape" to imply that an act, rather than a crime, is about to occur, ya feel? It's just SO WEiRD.

    I'm thinking your guess is right that something is lost in translation. Unless it's a bdsm thing and they are acting. Because the fact that they are asking to be"raped" means it's consenting and can't be rape by definition

    you guys are so fucking dumb. thats why i added a question mark, "?" "?"

You're all idiots. I don't come here to
 fight against a majority of 
Yes-Men when it comes to how
 bad or good a manga is, and 
yet here we-the-hell are. 
Don't fuck with me, I ain't got time 
for that. Don't come at me with a
flippant, bitch-ass attitude.
I like making albums for manga pages.  
Too many albums, in fact.

At this point I read yaoi like a critic
watches films. Not necessarily out of
explicit enjoyment, but to see where
the genre is heading in regards to
character development, plot, visuals,
etc. Don't expect in-depth analyses
of what I read, though. 

This site is making me more confident
in just saying how I feel about manga
that people seem to love blindly. Sorry
to break your hearts, shojo/yaoi fans,
but some of your faves are trash.
