Graphic sexual assault and attempted suicide

[#ReadAllTheBooks · Rating 5 out of 5]

I've owned these books for a while but recently re-read them. I have to say, this is one series that completely took me by surprise. I'd seen it on the shelves but dismissed them unfairly. The following review is for the entire series.

I love the artwork and story in this series. I especially love how the actual pairing off happened so quickly in relation to other series, which I like. (It's one of the reasons I loved Kare Kano as much as I did.) There's the typical "I luff them but someone is fighting me for them" stuff, but it's relatively well done considering that it's such a tried and true trope. You can actually see why people might fight over our two main characters.

As the title suggests, there is some sexual content in here and if you don't want to see manga boobs you'd best prepare yourself to see them. The content gets more graphic in the last volume, but generally sticks to hints, glimpses, and talk up until volume 17.

I've used a general review for the most part, but I wanted to add something for volume 16. In volume 15 Aine got repeatedly raped by the latest villain du'jour, which was actually a pretty gutsy move by Shinjo. Most times the heroine in mangas always manages to barely get out of a rape situation, but this time the heroine didn't. What makes it even more realistic is that Shinjo actually has Aine holding off from sex or even being around Sakuya for a good while afterwards. It's realistic and it's something that you don't often get from manga in general, so I applaud her for this.

This is a pretty entertaining series and it's what made me really love Shinjo as a mangaka. (Although I wish her publishers gave her all the respect she deserves!)

This is the first volume in a while where I’ve rooted for Sakuya and Aine as a couple. It was really cute to see them doing normal boyfriend and girlfriend things and getting away from the drama of fame that’s plagued them the entire series. Also, I found it refreshing that the focus was on plot as opposed to smut. I much preferred learning about the band and seeing them all deal with the aftermath of what happened to Aine. As a sidenote, can I just say that I was shocked that Takayama died? As I read, I kept thinking that he was going to pull through and everything would be okay. I honestly didn’t expect things to end that way.

This was unexpected. I'm glad. They have truly reached the stage where they undoubtedly without fail trust each other. What a loving relationship!
