This piece of art... is absolutely precious. I've experienced the reader's chills many times before, but here they come just from looking at Yumi's face. He's so beautiful! Ah! His existence justifies everything and if there is anything in the story, that is not perfect, it's cancelled. I am so happy I read this only because the cover art caught my attention. To give you the idea what you're getting into, in case you decide to read this yaoi... It's about adult people in the real world - ehm, okay, in slightly yaoi-sed and idealised version of the real world. The point is, it's not all aboutsteamy yaoi sex and overly manly seme saving the world. It's trying to present the daily struggels of ordinary humans, showing even sides of their personalities which someone could call ugly - and somehow sparkle the chemistry between these pages and the reader. The feel is real.
Mayama reunites with his old middle school classmate, Yumi. Mayama is captivated, but Yumi has a boyfriend. Then he learns Yumi's boyfriend hits him... (Source: bl-gyaru, Must Be Endless)
I am compelled to write a review as this is the first short story in years that literally made me tear up. This yaoi is no joke, it's raw, serious and mature and deals with important issues in a very interesting way. Story: it's not perfect, the phone misunderstandings were a little strange but they managed to portray Yumi's relationship with his abusive boyfriend realistically, I could relate to Yumi a lot. Subjects such as domestic violence in gay relationships are not that often seen in yaoi, even less dealt with seriously so this was nice. The story is short and nicely paced, what I liked mostis that it managed to balance between the violence of Yumi's past relationship and the sweetness of the one he had and has with Mayama. It keeps the story from sinking to downright depressing. Characters: the damn best part of this manga. The designs are great and they have interesting personalities. That part could have been a little developed but it's really only 4 chapters long of actual story so for that it does a good job. They managed to portray a real and raw relationship between the two mains, with great chemistry and realism. Even Kan-chan gets an interesting development and that succeeded in making him seem more human. Art: Great, crisp, mature, doesn't rely on moe/cuteness. Yet for the funnier expressions and other moments it reverts to very simple/chibiesque expressions I really enjoyed (coz they funny). Overall it was very pretty art. I loved this yaoi. It's one of the better ones out there, don't hesitate to show it some love. Also, Yumi's laugh and Mayama's blush made my heart melt. Definitely a must read!

"Sweat and tears and saliva and semen" - those were among the first sentences that popped up when I opened this manga. It was at this moment I knew this wasn't going to be an enjoyable experience. Sabita Yoru demo Koi wa Sasayaku is porn. There might be more non-explicit scenes than the explicit ones but it is still porn. So we have porn and yaoi, both of which are genres known for poor writing. Combined we get this. The story is expectedly simple. It could be summarized as "dude is getting beaten by his bf, later breaks up with this bf, finds a new bfand immediately fuck the new bf". I'm not even really omitting anything and unless you're here for the porn parts reading this summary will gave you approximately the same amount of story worth as would reading the whole manga. What's worse is that the abuse here isn't portrayed here as a serious story element, as something to build an interesting story around. No, it's here just as a fetish material. So unless you're into gay abuse it's just disgusting. Even disrespectful to actual victims I'd say. The manga doesn't even really try to portray the abuser as a bad guy, he just "took the wrong direction with how to express his love" is what the manga seems to say. And what was even the point of the manga? The mistake would be expecting this to have any other point other than the gay sex and the "foreplay" before it. The characters are practically non-existent beyond being template bishounen BL characters - the abusiveness of the ex boyfriend is all of the character traits in this manga. Visually it's all stock characters too, especially the two boyfriends who look almost as the same person just with kept or unkept hair- to the point when it confused me at one point when I actually did not recognize them apart. Overall, it's cringe but fujos with low standards (that's a bit of pleonasm isn't it) will most likely love it.
