pinkstarred's manga / #Piercings(4)

Ogeretsu sensei has just moved to top of my list, her work is amazing. I read these stories out of order, but I think it gave me a different perspective. That she is able to depict both sides of abuse and not completely villianize the abuser is really impressive to me. Don't get me wrong I did not like kan-chan in this story and hated his actions but I understood that what he did was reprehensible but it's not as simple as labeling him evil. In Kanchans story you see what made him change and in this story he clearly hates himself, that I was able to feel so much for this "evil" character really impresses me. That being said I so so happy that Souma got away from that horrible abusive relationship and found someone who can truely protect and treasure him. They are so adorable together and super sexy. As always sensei's art is gorgeous.

Omg! So adorable! A cool looking bishounen who’s just a soft Cinaminroll on the inside. My favorite! Both airheads but atsushi is quite troubled from being abandoned and unloved by his mother. That relationship is quite troublesome, he needs help to heal his abandonment issues.

Now I've seen everything. I really could of done without that action. They really went there...*blink blink* aigooo, why? It's quite sweet and nice if you ignore all the ickiness of it all. Though if you think of them as the human regardless of shape it all gets very grey. But still....no thank you. Piercing boys are so rare in manga too. I quite like the authors art style and some of their stories too. Suzumei was the perfect balance. I had to censor it for myself and just read the bubbles. Lol their story is quite nice despite that part. It seems to me that hachi might love hanabi more than kuma. But maybe its a matter of having them all in his life. Like if kuma cut off contact would he be okay? I think he actually wants a poly relationship right? Frankly, it seems like the obvious way to go. I will say it seemed that he kind of got swept up in the kuma relationship, but he was in it for years so clearly he has feelings for him.
