Complex (MANDA Ringo) (Yaoi)
2011-11-29
The following content is intended for mature audiences and may contain sexual themes, gore, violence and/or strong language. Discretion is advised. Complex is a multi-volume series which tells the story of Tatsuya Fujioka and Shinozaki Junichi. It begins in elementary school, during a critical event in both their lives. The story continues in succeeding volumes by covering periods of turbulence and growth as their lives progress. At times years pass between chapters; revealing moments that are funny, mellow, poignant, sweet or sad. Complex is unusually candid without being too over-the-top despite being in both the yaoi and drama genres. Volume 1:Tatsuya and Shinozaki are in 5th grade and the best of friends. One day the music teacher, a perverted pedo, has a request for Yumi (a girl who uses the teacher to get expensive gifts). With designs on Tatsuya, the teacher wants Yumi to use his best friend Shinozaki (who recently confessed), as bait to lure Tatsuya to the music room. Shinozaki and Tatsuya's future does not look good... Note: This story is based on a critical plot component which, while vaguely drawn and quite brief, is still technically shotacon. As such some readers may find it objectional. Unfortunately this takes place in the very first chapter of volume 1 (and recapped in volume 2). None of the later material in the story has any shotacon content at all.Volume 2 - 4:Attempting to write a suitable introductory comment for the remaining volumes just isn't possible. No matter how generic the details used, they are still spoilers for readers making their way through the series. If you enjoyed the first volume the next three will not disappoint you - although their are a few plot twists.

In an alternate history of the aftermath of World War II, Japan has been cleaved in half, with the south—Honshu and the other islands—allied with the United States and the northern island Hokkaido annexed by the enigmatic Union. It was on Hokkaido that a mysterious tower had been built, a strand of metal reaching up out of the atmosphere, visible from the northern tip of Honshu. In 1996, three teenagers, Hiroki, Takuya and Sayuri, make a pact—they will build an experimental aircraft, almost invisible to surveillance, cross over to Hokkaido and unlock the secrets of the tower. Their dream was never realized, because Sayuri was sent to Tokyo for treatment after she fell into a coma. It is now three years later. The rosy illusions of youth have fallen away, but not the unbreakable strength of the trio’s promise. The truth of the tower will be uncovered, and with it, the link between it and Sayuri’s mysterious, carefully tended condition.
