Well, this one when a little too dark for me. There hasn't really been any consensual scenes as of yet and I'm just not into that.
Probably going to stop here.
2.5 stars

Té moments molt durs, que per mi no són del tot necessaris per la trama. Igualment, seguiré llegint, tinc ganes de saber com acaba.

Ich liebe einfach Uichi und Akitora 🤭 die sind so witzig zusammen 🤪

*Reread 8/18/2022*
This volume makes me so sad and conflicted because the wife is so cool and badass so I hate that Akitora is cheating on her, but I also want to see Rogi and Akitora happy together. I am curious about what happens to the wife though because she's not present at all in the fourth head. I don't remember if she's even mentioned so like that could mean nothing, but it also makes me a little nervous.
I think everything that I was confused about before is starting to come together better in my head. I misread and really didn't understand a lot before, but I think I get what the Yakuza drama part is about though. Although I do find the things and reasons they do things odd and I'm still not 100% sure what the plan is and what it's fully meant to accomplish. Everything is very twisted and I think that's attributed to Akitora's and Rogi's reckless personalities. Their dynamic is so interesting because as they mentioned in the story they both seem like idiot kids just having fun.
I think it's cute that Asami treats Rogi basically like a son. It's so funny and I love it for Rogi because what he really wants most out of Akitora is a family. That's why he's so desperate to join his Yakuza family. It makes the relationships so much more complicated and it also makes Rogi's actions in fourth head seem even more childish. More like a child getting back at a parent instead of a lover getting revenge, but it's clear that Rogi does have romantic feelings for Akitora. Akitora's feelings are a little more difficult to place down. Clearly he holds affection for his wife and I don't think he would ever replace or leave her and with Rogi it's more like he wants to own him, because he's hard to pin down. However there's also this connection he feels because Rogi is so similar to him in their thought process and how he can keep up with him. I am starting to wonder about the ages though because Asami refers to Rogi as a kid, but if he and Asoda went to school together that would make them the same age, but Asoda obviously reads older than the early-mid 20s I read Rogi as. So maybe Asami and Tora are in their 30s? Not that it matters, but I wish they'd just say so I could properly pin down timelines.
Anyway I just wanted to process my thoughts. I think this series is a huge spiderweb of things that as I was reading I had a hard time appreciating it which is why that as I read further and could sit back and look at it, it ended up becoming a favorite. There are so many different parts at play and interesting relationship dynamics. It's a really interesting series and idk it just hits.

Orignal rating:3 stars
Akitora looks a lot like Daisuke Kambe and that's all I could think about.
I really like the wife and I want her to be happy so all the stinky dudes need to fuck off.
I read Beriko's books in a random ass order and took too much time in between reading the fourth head and this so I'm kind of confused at this point and just along for the ride.

I loved this one slightllllllly less than the first volume, but it was still an entertaining read! I love that it's both playful and serious at the same time. Yes, it's a very explicit BL lolllll but it also has one hell of a storyline going for it as well!

Die Charaktere sind sauber und detailreich gezeichnet und äußerlich sehr verschieden, was mir immer sehr gut gefällt. Außerdem gibt es auch vermehrt Hintergründe, die ebenfalls gewissenhaft gezeichnet wurden. Der Zeichenstil ist recht erwachsen.
Auch der Erzählstil war genau meins, sowohl das Tempo sowie die Geschehnisse waren nachvollziehbar, dynamisch und spannend.
Absolutes Highlight für mich ist Asami, Akitoras Frau. Holy moly, die hat dickere Eier als jeder Typ. Und Rogi, so cool er als Erwachsener ist, so anstrengend war er mit 21. Trotzdem bewundere ich auch seinen Einsatz und seine Beharrlichkeit. Ehrlich, ich liebe diesen Charakter. Aber manchmal will ich ihn eben auch schütteln oder anzünden.
Ansonsten bleibt es aufregend und ich gestehe in bin schon richtig von der Atmosphäre, den Charakteren und der Story vereinnahmt.

Leído del tirón. Le bajaría media estrella al volumen 1 después de leer este.
Es un tomo mucho más sólido, el dibujo es alucinantemente bueno y toda la primera mitad construye TAN BIEN la sensación de familia entre los cuatro (cinco) personajes, al mismo tiempo que va explorando las vertientes psicológicas de los personajes y desarrollándolos y creando tensión para los violentos últimos capítulos....
Ojo, TW de violaciones y cuernos.

Muy en la línea del anterior, profundizando un poco más en la relación entre Uichi y Akitora. Aparecen dos personajes nuevos. La mujer de Akitora, que me ha caído super bien, y lo mejor de todo es que a Uichi también XD. También conocemos al líder de la familia Yoyoi, que no se desarrolla mucho pero parece interesante. Asoda sigue en su línea, y ya se va dejando ver por qué la serie tiene el título que tiene.
Como pega le pongo la escena nonco, además relativamente romantizada. Aunque me han dicho tiene su motivo y que en los siguientes tomos entenderé el por qué.

Vol. 1 ★★★★☆
Some of the yakuza stuff goes over my head, but the meat of this volume is the fascinating dynamic between Asami, Uichi, and Yatora. Asami is such a cool woman that I wish Yatora isn't cheating on her. It doesn't help that Uichi is so hard to root for. His one defining trait is being a loose cannon and that's not much to work with. Also, it bothers me how he never seems to be affected by the horrible things inflicted upon him. I have to side with Asoda: he's bad news.

I have so many words and feelings for this volume but so little way in which to express it. I found myself really liking all of the characters and their development more. Especially the wife-- oh my goodness, she's my favorite by far and I aspire to be just like her.
This is still a really dark story however with quite a few really dark characters, but it bothers me less than before. The wife has certainly become my comfort character, aha. And I really loved seeing how domestic they all are-- and to be honest, I got so absorbed in it all that I forgot it was in the past, and in current times Rogi has a daughter and a...pet human for her. I still would really like to see how both time periods play out, I'm quite invested in the majority of these characters now. Scarlet Beriko-sensei is quite skilled at writing, I must say. And I will most certainly read this volume again someday.
But yeah, I just love the wife and how she handles things and how she processes things. I wish I was so, so much more like her. She does all the right things and just retains her pride but her compassion as well. I can't say she's not a bitch, but... she's the best kind of bitch and I just love the kind of person she is to bits.

Tengo sentimientos encontrados con este tomo porque aunque la trama sea buena, no me ha gustado. Mi problema con los dos personajes principales se acentúa: me caen fatal, especialmente Rogi. Y mi admiración hacía la esposa de Akitora ha crecido demasiado, solo quiero que ella sea feliz. Es que los demás me dan igual.

Ten tytuł nie należy do moich ulubionych.
2 tom nudził mnie bardziej niż 1 no i główny bohater jest tak wkurzający że nie mogę nawet na niego patrzeć :P

I'm still not sure how I feel about this series. It's brutal, absolutely not a romance (as the SuBLime imprint may suggest), and I don't really like any of the characters. But I also feel compelled to know what happens. So I guess literary Stockholm Syndrome?

Sensual y adictivo. Pero lo que me cuesta a mí hacer los árboles genealógicos y de influencia de las familias yakuzas...
December 27, 2022
Como me gusta Akitora, y como me fascina Uichi. Estoy súper enganchada, definitivamente esto es mi tipo de mierda.
Resumen para la futura yo:
Este volumen empieza con Uichi y Akitora escondidos del resto del clan en una casa hasta que aclaren que Uichi es inofensivo y que pueden quitar la orden de busca y captura contra él. Allí, Akitora por fin se deja llevar y hace suyo a Uichi, a pesar de las numerosas heridas que tiene en el cuerpo tras matar a Handa con sus propias manos. Entonces aparece Asami, la mujer de Tora, y en lugar de reaccionar de manera violenta, se dedica a charlar con Uichi y a curarle las heridas a Akitora. Conviven allí un par de días, con Uichi admirando la entereza de Asami, Asami haciéndose la esposa comprensiva (eso en algún momento va a explotar), Uichi y Akitora descubriendo todo lo que tienen en común y Akitora cogiéndole un cariño extraño a Uichi. Le ofrece formar parte de la familia si les ayuda con las finanzas e inversiones, porque parece que se le da bien, y Uichi acepta, contento. Pero Tora le dice que tendrá que conseguir por si mismo el dinero para comenzar a invertir, y debe hacerlo sin prostituirse. Uichi busca a sus amigos vagabundos y les pide ayuda para engañar a conductores fingiendo atropellos y que le paguen para no ir a juicio, pero uno de los coches a los que se tira es del jefe yakuza de Handa. Este le lleva a su oficina y para hacerle pagar por haberlo engañado, deja que sus hombres lo violen. Cuando Uichi vuelve a la casa donde estaba con Tora y los demás, Tora se enfada mucho porque le ve magullado y piensa que se ha prostituido. Se pelean a puñetazos y botellazos de cristal, pero los paran y luego comienzan a hablar y reírse como si nada. Tora le dice que deje de intentarlo, que no está hecho para la vida de Yakuza, y Uichi se enfada y le dice que deje de intentar protegerlo, que no quiere eso, que quiere demostrarle que puede valerse por si mismo y que no le necesita, así que le echa de su lado y se va. Tora le cuenta a Asami y a su amigo que no sabe qué quiere de Uichi, si ser su amigo, su amante o su padre, y que lo único que sabe es que quiere mantenerlo cerca. Tora vuelve al trabajo, y recibe una llamada de Uichi que coge su amigo, para contarle que tiene un contacto que le va a ayudar a invertir mejor, pero el amigo no se fía y no se lo pasa a Tora. En otro lugar de la ciudad, el padre de Tora acaba de salir de la cárcel.

Avec ce deuxième tome, nous nous épanchons de plus en plus sur la jeunesse de Rogi. Peu d'interactions avec le présent dans ce volume mais l'approfondissement du passé, nous permet tout doucement de découvrir cet homme aux mœurs mystérieuses et étranges.
Son alchimie avec Akitora est de plus en plus présente. Même si l'on connaît leur attirance, elle est difficile à décrire avec un adjectif précis par delà sa complexité. En effet même pour nos personnages c'est dur à exprimer, Akitora voit Rogi comme un fils, un ami et un amant. Il se découvre comme nous on découvre l'histoire de pages en pages.
Un tome qui dévoile encore par delà ses magnifiques dessins et personnes une intrigue de plus en plus riche et attirante ! Je suis vraiment comblée par cette lecture. Il me tarde de lire le tome 3.
En parallèle de leur relation arrive Asami la femme d'Akitora, c'est une très belle femme, forte, intelligente et elle sait ce qu'elle veut ! Je me suis beaucoup attachée à cette femme durant ma lecture elle m'inspire beaucoup de positivité en laissant de côté ses ressentiments et en faisait tout pour que son mari soit heureux. Elle a une grande faculté à saisir le comportement des personnes qui l'entourent. Comment la détester ? Elle qui est si humaine ?
Avec l'arrivée d'Asmai, Rogi qui a toujours été seul apprend ce qu'est une réelle famille, famille quelque peu étrange certe, mais il découvre des sentiments et sensations nouvelles qui ne peuvent que le faire grandir

Trigger warnings: Violence, Blood, Rape, Gang Rape, Cheating
Okay, so I'm so conflicted in my thoughts on this series. It's about a yakuza leader who starts an obsessive love with a promiscuous damaged man. I am not even sure where to start with this review.
I'm trying to stay neutral in this review, but non con really doesn't work for me. It makes sense, because these characters are damaged and corrupt people. Outside of that I found the mob/yakuza jargon tiresome. I read this in a few sittings because I just couldn't connect to this.
I love the art, Scarlet Beriko is quite a talented artist. Their art is dynamic and gorgeous. I also loved Akitora's wife: Asami. She was absolutely fantastic! She's a stay at home mom with an attitude. Don't mess with her, or you'll end up in a ditch. Is it bad that I liked her more than the couple? Can I just have a manga about her?
I really wanted to love this story, but I can't lie, I didn't. The characters are physically beautiful, and completely damaged. I'm debating on getting volume three out of curiosity. If you like a dark romance yakuza stories and the triggers don't bother you, give it a try. It just wasn't for me.

Adoro esta serie y me acabo de dar cuenta de que no la te Ia reseñada aquí. No me voy a explayar, la verdad, es de esas historias que hay que leerlas y decidir por ti mismo si te gusta o no.
Al fin tenemos esta saga entera en español, y no pude resistirme a releerla entera una vez más.
Adoro cómo Akitora pierde los estribos por Uichi y la ración atípica y puede que no del todo sana pero aún así maravillosa que tienen.
La mujer de Akitora es una campeona, imposible no caer rendida a sus pies y a la entereza con la que afronta la situación y al amante de su marido.
Esta es una historia con personajes imperfectos. Todos ellos. Son humanos que yerran más de una vez, pero aún así les coges cariño y entiendes por qué hacen lo que hacen.
Pero, sencillamente, Uichi y Akitora juntos valen oro, y aunque es una historia algo dark llena de tw que harán a muchos no disfrutarla, para mí es una maravilla.

The characters are interesting and this affects their dynamics too. Uichi (MC) and Akitora (ML?) don’t seem like they have anything in common at first but as the story progresses, more of themselves are revealed and it turns out that they’re more alike than expected. The people around Akitora, such as his wife Asami (yup the man has a wife and child, and his mistress is a twink 😂) and Asoda (his personal aide) are not thrilled with Uichi’s appearance in their lives but what can they do? Asami is surprisingly quite open minded about her husband’s extramarital affairs but it doesn’t mean that she likes it. And Asoda is really wary of Uichi and believes that nothing good will come from Akitora’s involvement with him. When they’re all in a room together they make an odd bunch but I think time will tell if they’ll all be able to make it to the end in one piece. After all, they are yakuza.

Col primo volume non avevo capito diverse cose, qui i tasselli trovano il giusto incastro. Mi è piaciuta l'introduzione della moglie di Akitoka, è davvero tosta e dolce allo stesso tempo. Mi è piaciuta l'evoluzione di Uichi, la sua pazzia e la sua non semplicità, il suo continuo scorrere su altri binari, il suo egoismo. Anche Akitoka non mi è dispiaciuto, anche lui molto complesso da gestire come personaggio..
Vedendo alcune scene al presente le domande per capire cosa sia successo sono davvero molte! Bello, intrigante e sorprendente!

I left a review for the first volume, which sums up my feelings for this one as well. The story is not un-enjoyable, but there are a lot of icky parts that didn't really do it for me. Also, the story tries to a little too hard to have a plot and that made it confusing. This series is a prequel to the 4th Generation Head manga by the same author, which I probably should have figured out sooner, but didn't.

ALL THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.. the the drama is SO GOOD.
Ok. still recovering from the stab wound, A kind of settles in to realizing how truly unhinged R is. He has zero need or want for self preservation when it comes to getting what he wants.
I would say is definitely untreated/undiagnosed.
Others call him a child and I can see that. But it is more than being immature.
R is getting completely used for his intelligence but he can't see past his singular obsession.

Ahh this one is so hard to review cause on one hand, cheating arcs piss me off bit it's more of a polyship at the end, and I also loathe the yakuza/violent angle but like, that's the plot so there's no surprise, and the art style is GORGEOUS as always. Just....a little confused on the Hachi storyline. Hopefully it changes in volume 3.

Another great volume in an amazing series. The art is still gorgeous, the cast is still wonderful, and every new thing we learn about them is amazing. The character relationships are excellent. It's funny and angsty and just all around wonderful. Looking forward to volume 3.

Sinceramente, no entiendo muchas cosas, el protagonista me cae bastante mal en este tomo. Es denigrante, obsesivo e irresponsable. Pero la historia está muy chula. Espero que los demás tomos sean mejores.
