I mean... I wasn't necessarily expecting quality from the cover, and I really liked the art style (which is the only reason this doesn't have 1 star) but the actual story details are incredibly problematic. One pretty much kidnaps the other when he finds him passed out drunk, rapes him, and for some reason they fall in love? And then the only defining character arc of the abductor is how he was sexually assaulted as a child? That's a Huge Yikes, y'all! Please keep this in mind before deciding to read. Nice art, awful characters and plot.

It's mostly smut but it's HOT STEAMy smut. The art is beautiful and the characters even more so. Mentions of rape and incest. Not sure what to call what happened with the MC and the old man (was it rape, noncon, or what?)
Does end up with a cute ending :)

☆This review contains spoilers and will only make sense if you've already read the manga☆
This is my first Yakuza based yaoi so I wasn't prepared for some of the darker elements of the story. The plot was decent, but I did wonder what Nozomi would have done had Tatsuyuki not come to Fukuoka when he did. He did say he planned on eventually going back to Tokyo to find him someday but by this time they were already adults living separate lives and there wasn't any guarantee Tatsuyuki would have been single or even interested in men. Everything about their reunion, including Nozomi finding him passed out on some random bench late at night, felt a little too coincidental.
Still, I used to be an avid reader of fan fiction, so I'm quite capable of looking past such things and enjoying the story as its told. I just wish I knew more about what happened between Tatsuyuki's father and Rogi and, to a lesser extent, what happened between Tatsuyuki and that masseur he was in love with. Is that the Dr. Minori he kept mentioning?
The unconventional dynamic between the seme (Nozomi) and the uke (Tatsuyuki) was interesting. It isn't that I haven't seen softer semes before, it was their roles along with the circumstances of their upbringing that surprised me. You'd think Tatsuyuki would be the seme and Nozomi the uke but I was happy with the way it was. It made their lovemaking scenes that much more fascinating.
This story contains intense childhood trauma and lots of noncon and dubcon. It's also pretty damn explicit. I haven't decided whether or not I like stories centering around the Yakuza trope but I've got the three available volumes of Jealousy as well as a few stories from other mangakas sitting on my shelf and I'm excited to find out.
UPDATE: I was thumbing through the first volume of Jealousy and realized that the series focuses on a younger Rogi and his dealings with Tatsuyuki's father, Akitora. If I'd have known that I would've read those first... oh well.

El erotismo de Beriko me encanta, creo que es una de las mangakas que mejor lo refleja en sus obras, y es por eso por lo que le doy 4 estrellas, porque la historia es bastante extraña y un poco sin pies ni cabeza, para qué nos vamos a engañar xD
El uke y el seme son diferentes a lo usual, cosa que agradezco, y es por ellos, por cómo se miran y se entienden, por lo que he sido capaz de leer sin importarme todo lo demás.
Si queréis conocer la obra de Beriko, no es la mejor para empezar.

I liked this one a lot. Now onto the main series

WARNING: Rape is a theme here.
The main couple is great though, the babyfaced one is the seme and the yakuza heir is the uke, and that is good enough for me. They are cute and sexy and they make my heart melt.

I've been rereading all of Scarlet Beriko's manga. Tatsuyuki Oyamato the 4th is by far the most messed up, even more so than its prequel Jealousy. I completely understand if this isn't someone's cup of tea. Like Jackass, the problem with this oneshot is that it's doing too much at once. It makes sense for Scarlet Beriko to do a five volumes long prequel series after wrapping this up, as she has invented so much backstory for the characters that it'd be a waste not to do more with it. However, I don't know if this amount of lore is really necessary here. The more I think about it, the more I'm certain that this manga is a ploy to pique the reader's interest in the serialization for the Uichi prequel, which rightfully so as it is a more compelling story. Still, I wish more energy went into developing Tatsuyuki and Nozomi's relationship. There's something interesting going on in there, but it never got a chance to grow. On top of that, I was put off by the insane pacing and notable amount of plot holes. Definitely not for the faint of heart. I don't know who I would recommend this to, unless you're super into yakuza BL or enjoyed Jealousy and want more in the same universe.

Honestly hilarious I rated this so lowly the first time considering this universe(?) has become one of my fave yakuza stories. Jealousy really sparked something in me. I will say this works better with the context of Jealousy especially in understanding why Rogi does what he does. I've grown to love Rogi's messy behavior and seeing him in this volume makes me feel a little sad for him. So I understand how Tatsuyuki can forgive him despite all the shit he did to him. As for Tatsuyuki and Nozomi they're an absolute MESS, but they're cuties. Nozomi especially what a clown, but so adorable!! I need to read their little sequel bonus stories thing so I can get more of them.
I've seriously grown as a reader and person since then because now I don't mind excessive sex scenes and I'm not as concerned with the problematic content. I think I was still recovering from my Catholic school sex=bad mentality and I was extremely worried about what people would think if I enjoyed problematic sex-filled content. Plus this was I think my first non wholesome BL when I started reading BL again and one of the first if not the first smutty bls I reviewed. I wish I could find some of the BL I read as a kid, but a lot of it was really bad from what I remember. Or maybe I just felt that way because same sex relationships felt naughty to me in general. Lmfao it's weird how you can reject those teachings, but still have the residual feeling like you're doing something bad. Luckily I've since grown out of that now I'm more concerned that I've gone too far in the opposite direction LOL. Anyway I feel like admitting my love for MADK and Killing Stalking and becoming a discord degenerate has helped me come out of my shell A TON. It's nice to see my progress I guess? Idk weird personal thoughts.

All things considered this isn't the worst yaoi ever, but it's definitely pretty problematic. It was mostly sex and I feel like this could've been cute if it was more focused on the story than the sex scenes, but whatever I guess. Disappointed, but not surprised.

This was fine. The art is good, the story is...a little out there, there's a lot of problematic stuff, there's lots of steaminess. I enjoyed it enough!
There's one particular panel in which a character stretches out his leg and braces his foot on the bottom of a panel below him, and I LOVE that. It's so subtly creative. Perhaps breaking the 4th wall a bit, but I'm okay with that. :)

Toooo many smexy scenes!! sigh. Bukannya aku ga suka porn ya, ga muna jadi orang, cuma ga sesuai ekspektasi saja buku yg satu ini. Melihat ratingnya yg tinggiiii bgt di mana-mana, sampe cuma ngekor tepat di bawah manga lain yg jauuuhhhh lebih berbobot : Hana wa Saku ka vol 4. Aku berharap lebih ke plotnya, dan model fluffy comedy gitu, bukannya dark and rape and rape and rape and he's way toooo forgiving for being raped and blackmailed and he's cheating too because he was consent for it, so it's not 100% rape in the end, huh? Digauli sepanjang hari selama beberapa hari dan tdk ada sedikit amarah pun, cuma karena dia yakuza? I know I know, banyak memang yaoi manga yg dub-con dan non-con isinya, tapi dub-con di sini dibalut dlm bentuk cheating itu bener2 bikin bete.
Character development juga ga ada, model kaya si uke ini bener2 ga cocok jadi yakuza krn terlalu pemaaf dan percaya pada org lain dgn mudah, gampang ditipu. Dan sejujurnya cheating part dan blackmail rape itu harusnya ga perlu, kan dia yakuza, napa ga maen tembak saja? Karena pada akhirnya dia tembak juga orangnya, kenapa ga dari awal coba? Pointless bgt rasanya bagian cheating part itu karena harusnya ada cara lain buat solve the conflict. Kalo dijadikan gini kan seakan-akan cuma jadi alasan buat bikin adegan seks sebanyak-banyaknya karena well, porn book itu lebih menjual. Fakta.
Aku fans dark angst juga, baca byk yaoi manga yg sadis2 juga isinya, tapi sori yg satu ini tdk se-amazing yg seperti kurasakan saat baca dark angst lainnya yg juga byk porn juga di dlmnya : Kaori no Keishou/The Inheritance of Aroma, mungkin krn banyak bagian yg 'maksa' tadi, I mean, tembak saja dari awal, napa si uke setuju lacurkan diri cuma supaya si pemerkosa bisa get attention dari papa si uke yg rupanya jadi obsesi si pemerkosa.

Hay un trasfondo más oscuro dell que esperaba para ambos protagonistas y creo que de alguna forma se manejó muy a la ligera (incluso en el contexto yakuza donde tienen sus formas de arreglar sus temas). La pareja me gustó, su relación era lo bonito entre tanto mal

Me ha encantado. Beriko dibuja MUY bien. No le importa arremangarse y meterse en lo turbio para presentar un bottom fuera de los cánones clichés y usar toda esa violencia como vehículo para contar la historia romántica entre los protagonistas.

4⭐️ Review:
Before reading, be sure to check the trigger warnings of this story 🙏🏻
I enjoyed this. While I think the amount of spicy scenes were a bit overkill and I wish we got more explanation for certain scenes, it was still really good. Getting the background for Nozomi was quite sad, but gave a lot more understanding for their developing relationship.
Another great story by Scarlet Beriko 😊

It was really OK till the . It kind of spoiled the manga for me. Which makes me sad because I really liked the story before that episode.

I think I have a thing for yakuza/mafia!uke. As long as I can remember I really like and fully satisfied with this trope and route every time I read ones. Guess manly and capable uke had that effect on me LMAO. Now I know what uke preferences I love and want! Scarlet Beriko knows her things so of course the smut was a full buffet with lots of chemistry, not just some random squelch fwop slam schlup, it actually become good element to put in the plot and story. The sex scenes tells story, and those are incredibly hard to make. Not all mangakas can make it.
It has a messy start and a little bit questionable, but the kind of messy that I like! I really want this in ten volumes atlast huhu.
Aah~ manly uke have a special place in my heart. They are on another level, totally a different and superior breed 💍🧎🏻♀️

This manga was dark. One MC was raped and abused by his father when he was just a boy, while the other needs to use his body as a whore to pay a debt and protect the other MC.
I wasn't sure about the rating till the end, since I don't like these themes, but at the same time the art and the end weren't bad. For this 2 stars.
I could have loved this manga about yakuza if it wasn't so dramatic.

Ich liebe Beriko-Mangas, ich weiß auch nicht warum, da sie def. dubcon und noncon Elemente enthalten, aber bei ihr is das irgendwie einfach gut gemacht, ich weiß echt nicht wieso :D aber so ist es halt. Und dann noch mit Yakuza-Thema und ihr Zeichenstil ist einfach mega. Also ja.

this was an awesome book. If you enjoy yakuza novels that have that yakuza edge go for this. I was super worried this would be a gay-for-you kind of plot reading the blurb it wasn't. The blurb is pretty crappy with the description to be honest, But if you're a yakuza fan this is a must read.
