Fraiser's manga / #Crime(11)

2018. It was shallow. They jump from hate to like too fast, in a way which doesn't make sense for strangers. It didn't feel believeable or fun. Not enough of their interactions shown. This had assault then rescue scene. This instantly made me like this less. Although this setting & premise involve crime, why, in Bl of this nature, do we keep leaning on specifically gang bang scenes to make the seme look better? It's a gross plot device. I'm done with it. Average

This Is really stereotypical Alpha/omega stuff. The comic itself is aware of that, but it's not ideally my cup of tea. On the other hand, the theift heist concept is interesting. I am a sucker for a tall, dark, handsome & dangerous seme Update: ok dropped. There's nothing here. Just smut. Uke looks like girl.

Mechanic boy living a shady life on the streets, strikes an unintentional relationship with an even shadier gang member, Jay. As the two explore their business by pleasure relationship, trouble from the underground world finds them. I REALLY like this. As everyone else says, the dynamics are enjoyable. It has all the bite, edge & roughness from a mafia BL you could hope for. Characters are both cool/ sexy alpha males, & in that sense, is like standardized yaoi. But, while Jay's role as a gang member gives him more power than MC, their sexual interactions with each other can feel of equal ground, which is refreshing! They both feel good, & with the MCs tough attitude, he always pushes back & they make demands of each other. Jay has qualities readers of this type of mafia story want: he's tall, broad shouldered, he's rich, he's dangerous to all, but protective to the mc cuz they're special. Again, he fits into the standardized model of mafia characters set forth by such like Asami from View finder. But then we get to see the bottom pleasure the top??!!! We never see that! Yaoi seems to be afraid to normally do that! We see the mc touch his body, fondle his chest, finger him while he sucks him off, & we get to see him react & feel good!! Ahhhh that was the best. I want to see more semes receiving too ️ I also like how Jay is surprisingly patient & lenient with the MC despite how scary & cold he acted in the beginning. Very nice surprise. Love it!

Complete. This started off really interesting but then the tone just fell off the wagon. At first, it felt really edgy & fucked up, but that gets pushed aside & everything becomes milder. The seme Maa- kun suddenly behaves better & develops a liking to the MC. BUT! There's no romance. It didn't feel fucked up or romantic or really lean too much into anything. It felt kinda mild. What bugs me is the seme being forward in the relationship but the MC being really lame & half baked about reciprocating even though he does hold affection. He's just too much of a damn weenie. It ends with him hiding Maa-kun from his mom & reluctantly having awkward sex. I feel this is why people felt incomplete after reading. Because the ending still felt one-sided. I mainly remember this because the seme is so sexy. I get Kaneda vibes.

Poor uke is able to make beautiful pearls when he cums. Because of this, he has suffered at the hands of evil people using him. This mainly leads to a lifestyle where he is prostituted. Enter our strong, kind, outgoing seme who wants to help him. This is a "save the prostitute" yaoi story. I think these stories appeal to the feeling of being healed. The seme in here..damn. Let me tell you, top tier sexy dream bf who protects you. He is my first reason for liking this series. I have fallen in love with this seme! I hope the uke can be healed. Cuz boy this couple runs into problems, problems, problems. But, they have each other. Paused at chapter 40. Waiting for more chapters, to catch up. Edit 4/13/23: BRUH! I'm so glad I haven't kept reading. Thanks to IG I found out what happens in the latest chapter. It's too tragic for me. The uke gets abused to hell. I thought that was over in the first arc. The scenario is so graphic it makes me want to barf. So long Pearl Boy! You're not for me! FINISHED

DAMNN.. This manga is outstanding!! Great art, great plot, great characters, great sex!!!! It's super erotics. I don't specifically like the alpha x Omega pair, usually because I feel it fetishizes gender roles. So it's amazing this didn't have why of that! This featured an Beta top x Alpha bottom. I love seeing a big, masculine alpha get ravished! It got even better when author added a tiny hint of SM into their sex! And it got EVEN better when we find out the seme is an Obsessive Lover

This is really cool. Great execution, as expected of Jaxx. I love the symbolism, themes, motifs & ideas she puts in her work. I love how art & sculpture play into the idea of wanting to preserve something eternally, thusc revealing even more about a character's personality, & maybe something more unhinged..? I've yet to figure out what "green light" represents, but the MC's studio says alot. His existence revolves around his art, this why the author has him living in his studio. This studio is far down in a basement like area with no natural lighting, bit an artificial green light. I feel it makes parallels between the two characters economic struggles of one who wants to move up in life, & another who already has as a gangster. There's alot of cool ideas here. Jaxx really delivers alot for readers to be entertained by! Waaahhh & the seme is so seductive. He's a perfect power bottom hehe I feel Jaxx is amazing at communicating passion, both in the dialogue of thoughts & the actions & movements of characters. The drawings themselves of the bodies are fine, but it's their little tender movements of nipping, biting, licking, the posing chosen that express alot to me. This, combined with their thoughts make everything feel so passionate. For example, one scene I like is when the two characters finish having a night of long sex. Jin wakes up & walks to the mirror to see theres a ton of red marks left on him as Matt comes up behind him & stares too. They both look at Jin's reflection on the mirror. Matt, while looking at Jin's neck then asks, how long will the marks stay? This communicated so much possessiveness. These guys are crazy about each other. I think Jaxx is really impressing me! 2/26/22. Season 1 ends with a yakuza ball & shit is hitting the fan. We're left on a cliff hanger. "I hope he felt beautiful in your eyes, just as he did in Matthew's", Oh Jaxx, Jin is perfect! Can't wait to see their relationship develop on season 2! 060623: omg it has been more than a year! I wonder when it will come back? No rush to the author tho.

This is God Tier. Here are my thoughts: This looks GOOOODD & My boy looking like Sungho what a snack Art style so far looks beautiful. I'm starting to think I have a thing for BL Gang / Police / Crime stories. This is disgusting. Too violent. I would only want to stay for the uke who seems like a nice, interesting character. WOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW Bro, "trust the process" for reals!!!!! This was just season 1???!!! Omg what the hell is going to happen in season 2??!! I'm glad I gave this a chance & that other readers put a good word in for this.

7/22/22: Theyre all bad guys who kill people but, it's lighthearted and MC is looking for love.. Im not interested.. That premise is too morally compromised for me.. Read 1 chapter.
