Jun 16, 2011 21:08

When Kohei's beloved little sister died, he was left behind  with not only sad memories and loneliness but also a brother in law, Shingo. Ironically, it is this brother in law, who Kohei has once feverishly refused to accept is now his greet pillar of support. Until once night, after Kohei passed out from their usual litter drinking, he woke up to found his brother in law was on top of him. "I love you" so Shingo confessed, but would Kohei be able to get pass his sister's memories and the great taboo to accept him...

This story is about one of the most impossible , forbidden relationship that full of angst and till the very end, it is also hard to say  wether the end can be considered as a happy ending. The character is well built, typical personality but I am more attractive to the flow of the story than the character themselves. The most memorable character might be the sister who appeared shortly in the dreams and mid-chapter short-comic,

Fusa-sensei is not very well-known, one of her book that you might know is Fukuin. Her uke are usually uptight man, who are tormented between their dark desire and the set of conduct. Her drawing style is not so polished, but has a distinctive style.

This book might pinch your interest if you are into complex relationship but might be a bit heavy if you are seeking for cute, adorable love story. For me, it is a nice addition to my collection
