ngl, I did get that angsty-ass emotional hit in the first one lolll. I liked that tragic ending, actually. (but lbr they'll probably still get entangled again lmao) (poor wife though... it should've happened before they made it official. pining at weddings is one of my fav tropes. it's true, BL treats women awfully. good thing it's fiction and no actual women were hurt for my satisfaction mwahaha 😛)

will leave the rest for later.

p.s.: pro-tip, you can pretty much guarantee anything attractive fascinate ever does is hot garbage. I'm just thankful they didn't force their colouring on us this time.

It Just Makes Me Sad Now

by FeyFujoshi
8 years ago

Rating: 2.0 / 10.0

I can't even get angry at this anymore. Just, sad, sad, and more sadness.
I honestly want to rate this a 10. No kidding, that’s what I actually want to rate this because the stories break my heart, and keep me on the brink of hope. The reason that I won’t is because of how Humiliation and Shame are used in ways that I find abusive, within the story, and rude to the readers, especially women and LGBT+ people. And, they all touch upon such important topics, to see them being dealt in this why ... just no. Please stop.

The first story only, Barbed Wire Love. Heiji marrying off his sister to Kou whom he not only had a relationship in high school, loved, still loves, fucks on the wedding day, knows Kou loves him back, and yet both are paralyzed and unable to image/form a future with each other. Compulsory heterosexuality. While I can, after shedding enough tears to drown myself, stomach the break up these two go through with, and the marriage (a death sentence) one of them goes through; why would you give your sister to the man you are fucking on the sofa on her wedding day? A man you still love and you know for a fact the other person is gay through and through; why destroy your sister’s future? Do you really hate her this much? And Kou is as horrible as Heiji.
The only story which I could honestly, from the bottom of my heart, like was the 5 and last one, Please Whisper in Your Voice. The rest of them touched on such pertinent topics, that it honestly breaks my heart to see the way in which they are told. Still, this might seem weird coming from me but even now the best story for me is the first one. The way it breaks my heart, no other story does that to me. Sad.
Second one, I Really Want to See You, the restructuring of your relationships as best friends become lovers. Turned into a story about the uke’s hedonism.
Third one, Sheltering from the Rain, clutching at straws and just breaking all boundaries by plunging head-on because it is now or never. Turned into a rape story, which isn’t really ‘rape’ as we find out by the end. (Fact: it's still rape)
Fourth story, Love Level @Beginner, coming to recognize what it means to love, the title is quite apt in this case. Turned into a mere story about jealousy. Still, this is my second best story.

Ok, but pretty much all of these suck. The fourth story is alright and the art is ok, but basically she draws two faces so it's kinda boring. But I do like the line [spoiler] "If you let me see you looking so cute like this I will not stop until we do it all the way, even if you're crying and don't want it." [spoiler] LOLZ, JK facepalm The only thing left to say is megane, megane, megane, megane!!

Story 1... NO

Rating: N/A

I really really REALLY cannot stand it in yaoi manga when

a man who knows he is gay gets married to a woman. That poor woman--she has no idea that this marriage never had any chance at success! And here Kou is not required to marry Heiji's sister to unite two successful business families or to take responsibility for getting her pregnant, or from any pressure from his parents. WHY IS KOU MARRYING THAT POOR GIRL?! He has no reason! Especially after realizing that the person he REALLY loved was his fiancée's brother! Yes, I found myself tearing up at the end of the chapter, but it might have been a result of sheer frustration with these protagonists. Kou is causing misery for three people now! He pissed the hell out of me.

So is he still going to be having an affair with his wife's brother after all that? What a nutless little weasel. Yes, this was a rant haha but without any specific reason that ABSOLUTELY REQUIRED Kou to marry Heiji's sister (debt, etc) I couldn't get into the mangaka's "star crossed lovers" theme. These lovers are not star crossed! Kou was just effing stupid. Not that that lets Heiji off the hook--what a shit brother to do that to his sister's husband ON THEIR WEDDING DAY. #shameless

Good art, bad story

by Kinky-Chan

Rating: 4.0 / 10.0

I don't know why but good art works always have bad storylines. It's like a nightmare. As I was fascinated by the art, I couldn't even concentrate on the stories. They're so bad and poor that I don't know what I should say. The stories seems jumbled up and there's no clear plot at all. Not to mention that the first story sucks. I don't even know what exactly is going and then bam! that's the ending. As expected from a book with oneshots. shakes head

Yuushitessen no Koi

I agree that it is nice to have the downer at the start rather than the end, it sort of feels like the rest are there to cheer you up, non?

Anyways in order:

1: Not great, not awful, and despite going for that emotional hit, just didn't get there. I think it may be because it is a one shot, but I can see where they were going. A so-so start.

2: I liked this one better, cute story, I would love to have a back story on this family though, oh well. Haru looks adorable trying to pull his shirt down to cover his bottom.

3: I'll never really get the rape into love, but it makes more sense here since Suguru already liked him. I don't get the 'glasses disguise you' or 'hide that you are good looking' part. I see that a lot. Again a cute ending, but... not anything out of the ordinary.

4: Meh, a sort of boring story with some really over used plot devices. Also 'I didn't even realize you were gay.' Wow, how could did you not pick up on that after that outfit on page 4?

5-6: Again rape turns into a happy couple, cute enough though.

Overall: Not really fantastic, but it was a book of (mostly) cute stories. I enjoyed the art a lot, and it's nice to see normal sized dicks not HOLY CRAP HUGE PENISES FOR EVERYONE that is in most manga. I liked also the detail in the glasses, nose pieces and all. The little SD pages between chapters were cute too.

Could do better, but still a fantastic work

by torrentchan

Rating: N/A

For this manga i am giving it a 9.

The art is adorable, not too cute (where many of the ukes are too feminine or looks like a girl).

I enjoy the fact that it was an oneshot collection, although the first oneshot could be made into a series, since the readers are left with a lingering feeling of incompletion.

But still, a really really enjoyable manga, for me at least. I enjoy all part and shots of the manga and plan to keep an eye out for this mangaka.

The first oneshot was short, but it was exquisite and yearningful. I agree with voraciouszest, the fact that this shot seem out of place with the manga theme really stand out, but i disagree when it comes to the plot. I think the mangaka's attempt for this oneshot to be sad and touching did not fail as voraciouszest made it seem. And the fact why this sad shot was at the beginning of the manga and not the end? Well, i rather read the sad and then the happy any time (reading happy and touching shots, just to get to the last oneshot that ends in misery? No way, not for me baby).

Thanks to AF for scanlating this gorgeous manga for the fans!

Hot Sex, Disappointing Stories

by voraciouszest
16 years ago

Rating: 6.5 / 10.0

Yuushitetsusen no Koi (or Barbed Wire Love) is a volume of one-shots by Anan Yukako. The stories loosely revolve around the theme of friendships evolving into something more.
This was my first time reading any of Anan's work. Though this is not her first manga, this is her first to be fully scanlated into English. To that end, I was a little disappointed. I feel I would have been a little more generous had it been one of her earlier attempts, but because this is one of her newest pieces of work, there is really very little excuse for the flaws you'll find in Yuushitetsusen no Koi.
The title one-shot, Barbed Wire Love, is the story of Heiji and his high school sempai and ex-lover, Kou. We the story on Kou's wedding day. The story isn't so bad but there are two flaws that make it a little hard to enjoy.
The first flaw is that the mangaka has attempted to squish all the complicated feelings, both past and present, of a troublesome and far-from-over love affair into a oneshot. Needless to say, there is no real ending because of this.
The second flaw lies in the fact that the title oneshot has been included in the volume as the very first chapter, and really does a good job of ruining the mood for the following stories. I won't reveal what happens, but I can say that Barbed Wire Love seems like an extra (and unrelated chapter) that has mysteriously found its way from the end of the book to the beginning. The rest of the stories seem to be much more related to one another than the title story.

The following stories all involve a common theme; friendships that turn into romantic relationships. They also have a megane theme, or glasses theme for those of you who aren't otaku. The rest of the volume flows nicely. The stories are begun and completed in their chapters and still manage to get their point across.
As for Anan's artistic style, I don't have too many complaints. She manages to create some very hot sex scenes and keeps her characters aesthetically pleasing. My only disappointment is that the majority (not all) of her characters tend to look almost exactly the same. At one point, reading the second chapter, I had to keep on looking back at chapter one to see if some of the characters were included in the story.
Yuushitetsusen no Koi is nice. It's impossible to claim any deeper lesson will be learnt here. The stories are short, the characters are given little time to develop and the sex tends to take over the story a little too much. However, anyone with experience in Yaoi will already know that this is the true nature of the one-shot. You really can't walk into a volume full of one-shots expecting to gain an experience similar to reading a volume dedicated wholly to one story.
You'll enjoy this work if you want a quick read, some cute boys and some hot sex.

Hate the first story. The others are o.k. but often have a lingering feeling of incompletion.
Like the art. I've seen better, but I've also seen much worse in this style.
