La casa de los herejes 1
Hagino, la heredera de los Horikawa, ha tomado por esposo a Torazoo, fracasado ex combatiente y tercer hijo de los Takano. La misión inmediata del fornido Torazoo es preñar a Hagino, pero lo que él no sabe es que su ingreso en la familia Horikawa le ha hecho preso de una saga familiar perversa que, sometiéndole a una serie de vejaciones que pondrán a prueba su resistencia física y psicológica, pretende despersonalizarle y hacer de él un mero juguete sexual.

About the author
Gengoroh Tagame
111 books581 followersGengoroh Tagame is a Japanese manga artist who specializes in gay BDSM erotic manga, many of which depict graphic violence. The men he depicts are hypermasculine, and tend to be on the bearish side.
Born into a family descended from samurai, Tagame began his career as a manga artist in 1982, while he was studying graphic design at Tama Art University (多摩美術大学). His works have been published in several Japanese gay magazines, including Sabu, G-men and SM-Z. Since 1986, he has used the pen-name Gengoroh Tagame, and since 1994 Tagame has lived off the profits of his art and writings. In recent years, Tagame has edited a two volume artbook series about the history of gay erotic art in Japan from the 1950s to the present, 日本のゲイ・エロティック・アート (Nihon no gei, erotikku āto, Gay Erotic Art in Japan) volumes 1 and 2.
All his works contain "virile males, or youths, and their apprenticeship of physical and mental submission". Works of his include: Jujitsu Kyoshi at B Product; Emono, Shirogane no Hana (3 vol.) and Pride (3 vol.) at G-Project.
His manga Gunji (軍次) was translated into French in 2005, followed by Arena in 2006 and Goku in 2009. An artbook of his works has also been published in France by H&O Editions. An exhibition of his works was held in France in May 2009. Tagame is openly gay.
Tagame has been called the most influential creator of gay manga in Japan to date, and "the most talented and most famous author of sado-masochistic gay manga". Most of his work first appeared in gay magazines and usually feature sexual abuse. Tagame's depiction of men as muscular and hairy has been cited as a catalyst for a shift in fashion amongst gay men in 1995, away from the clean-shaven and slender bishōnen stereotypes and towards a tendency for masculinity and chubbiness. Tagame's work has been criticised by notable gay manga writer Susumu Hirosegawa as "SM gekijō" (S&M theater) for its violence and lack of complex storylines.
A small amount of Tagame's work has been licensed in English; a short story, "Standing Ovations", was included in the third issue of the erotic comics anthology Thickness, and in July 2012, Picturebox announced a short story collection, The Passion of Gengoroh Tagame, for 2013 release, which will be the first completely bara work published in English in a print format. The book will collect short works spanning 15 years of Tagame's career, including a new story commissioned especially for the book by book designer Chip Kidd.

Un manga bizarro y extravagante en el que vemos mediante abusos de todo tipo la despersonalización absoluta del protagonista, Torazoo. El cual entra en una familia tras casarse con la hija del cabeza de familia sin saber que acabará siendo menos que un juguete sexual.
Puedo entender que no sea una lectura para todo el mundo, pero a mí ha mantenido enganchado desde el principio. El no saber qué va a pasar, la locura que se respira dentro de esa casa y las increíbles ilustraciones, hacen que no te despegues de las páginas.
La parte más perturbadora para mí fue sin duda la de la abuela... Muy fuerte este manga. xDDDDD
PD: Torazoo me dio real mucha pena, pobrecito :(

Wow. Estoy impactado Jajaj. No es apto para todo el mundo, es muy explícito y bizarro. Tiene un tono ultra sado muy dom bdsm oscuro. Me lo devoré en una tarde sin darme cuenta. Hay una escena con una abuelita que me dejó muy shockeado Jajaj.

Well, es una historia no apta para sensibles. Explícita en todos sus sentidos con una historia detrás que pasa más que las escenas sexuales. Vamos a por la segunda parte.

No puedo ver esto como lo que no es. Esto no es una obra con tintes eróticos o pornográficos, esto es porno y creo que se tiene que ver como lo que es, y como tal, pues no está mal sabe hacer lo que tiene que hacer y listo. Lo mejor sin duda es lo bien que este hombre dibuja la anatomía humana.

Vaya, porno sado bien resuelto, tanto por la trama como por el dibujo.

Impactado me hallo.
En La casa de los herejes, Gengoroh Tagame articula una poética del exceso que remite, por su imaginario de dominación ritualizada, al universo del Marqués de Sade. La obra conjuga la tradición del manga con una estética del cuerpo hiperbólico y ceremonial: cada viñeta funciona como escena litúrgica donde poder, erotismo y violencia se inscriben en una composición de notable precisión plástica. El resultado es una experiencia simultáneamente inquietante y de indiscutible belleza.

Más que el contenido sexual explícito, lo que puede chocar en este manga provocativo y audaz es la espiral de abuso, subyugación y violencia (la psicológica más que la física) que padece el protagonista Tarazoo, mito erótico instantáneo, por otra parte. Pero esto es una novela gráfica, y Gengoroh Tagame lo lleva al pie de la letra. Las ilustraciones son buenísimas, con el equilibrio justo entre morbo y aprensión, y la trama engancha. También están presentes los conceptos de honor, sacrificio, servilismo y subordinación a la autoridad, tan arraigados en la cultura japonesa.

Carino per gli amanti del genere... ma Tagame si trova più a suo agio con i racconti brevi

Hacia años que no leia una novela gráfica. Libro brutal y muy bestia para los amantes del bdsm y de Historia de O.

Es Tagame, no Blancanieves, así que ya sabía lo que iba a encontrarme.
Curiosa trama, trazo genial.

Super hard to read. Eight chapters of rape and torture. Not recommended unless that's your thing.
