    I might be biased because I came from the manga, but this story overall is a masterpiece regarding lingering childhood trauma and harmful coping skills.

    The main character is Yashiro, who seems like a masochistic sex maniac, but as the story develops, you start realizing that this isn't really him. It's really a desperate attempt to regain control over his unimaginably painful and traumatic experiences. Deep down he just wants to held gently and for someone to be on his side, but he doesn't really believe he deserves it. After all, no one has ever treated him like that, and the only love interest he ever had, didn't reciprocate his feelings. And then Doumeki comes around...

    The story handles heavy topics, and the way these things are ...
