A must-read for all fans of yaoi, for this is one of Minami Haruka's best works. It's unlike her usual light & fluffy reads, because Saihate no Kimi e has a rather deep (and at times, dark) storyline in addition to its many steamy scenes. Well, deep compared to her other manga, if you are familiar with them. By the time you have finished this, you will have connected to the two main characters Ryou and Akihito on a personal level, making this read very enjoyable indeed. And can I add that it's hot, hot, HOT? I mean wow! Minami knows what we like,and never fails to please!
