Book Review: Yakuza In Love 1 by by Shiuko Kano
Summary: 5 Stars
Aoi is only a lucky boy with some secrets in his past. He has joined a Yakuza family and for a twist of the fate he saved the boss' life. But other members in the family know the truth and want to uncover it.
The boss, for his own reason, choose to assign Aoi as bodyguard to Sakiya, an old member of the family, just out of prison. Sakiya is of the old way, he was a man of the old boss and he is not at all agreed with the "new" business of the boss' son. Aoi falls for Sakiya at first glance.
Sakiya takes at heart Aoi's fate, cause he has the same name of his former lover, a woman killed for her bond with Sakiya. Meanwhile, another man of Sakiya, takes in another young guy, who shares an unrequieted love for a man he can't have, like Aoi, and a dangeruous relationship with a man of the boss.
The story is not bad, but a little difficult to follow: many events and too less close points. Maybe cause it's a first book of three, and some events will end in the following books. And then I can't "feel" the bond between Aoi and Sakiya, it's like if I'm waiting for the real Aoi's Mr Right to appear in the story...
But as always the graphic is very "pure" and beautiful. The characters are more "japanese" than in other yaoi manga, and maybe reading the three volume one after the other will help to understand better the story.
Summary of Yakuza In Love Volume 1 (Yaoi) (Deux)
Don't make their love a crimeAoi Ichimura is a member of the Yakuza family known as The Hanagumi (The Flower Gang). He was promoted unusually fast for, accidentally, saving the gang boss's life. Aoi has a reputation as a rough, tough, ready for action macho man, but in reality he's just a timid guy with incredibly good luck. He is assigned to be the apprentice of underboss Yuji Sakiya, who has just been released from prison. Aoi learns to be manly in a different way... trying to be the perfect lover for Sakiya.
