Under Grand Hotel: It's Never Enough
If you're a hardcore yaoi fan and you've never read the following manga, chances are that you haven't lived.
UNDER GRAND HOTEL
What a phenomenon. The king of all yaoi manga, crafted by the queen Sadahiro Mika.
Summarising the plot would mean the hazard of either not doing it justice because I'd be giving you a sketchy outline, OR giving away the whole thing.
So let's just say that the story intricately and insightfully examines the development and course of inter-personal relationships in the environment of an underground prison, especially those of the protagonist's with his fellow inmates, guards and the warden. Any other explanation would either fall short or turn into a spoiler.
I'm about to to tread the fine line between incoherent fangirling and coherent thought exposition, so please do excuse me as I bombard you with a series of adjectives or descriptive phrases in an attempt to convey my level of devotion to this manga.
Unique. Original. Bold. Fearless. Unabashed. Gritty. Twisted. Blood curdling. Unpretentious. Deep. Dark. Disturbing. Profound. Insightful. Thought provoking. Frightening. Intense. Thrilling. Unpredictable. Riveting. Intoxicating. Effortless. Realistic. Extremely well researched and well executed. All consuming.
Aaaand since it's yaoi, which essentially means "no climax no point", I might as well add the following relevant adjectives.
Gorgeous. Smoking. Sizzling. Burning. Smouldering. Torrid. *casts aside thesaurus*
As for the the two main characters, Sadahiro Mika scores full marks in my book.
Swordfish makes a beautiful seme, and his character development takes a spasmodic ride throughout the series.
As for Owari Sen... If I were a guy, I'd make him my uke, and spend half our time doing exactly what Sword does most of the time with him in the canon. He's beautiful, he's always a survivor, he's somewhat of an enigma. And the last but not the least, his journey through prison life is a roller coaster ride of unforgettable proportions.
