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!

'Saihate no Kimi e' is a manga that's easy to forget. It's short and missing a lot of proper depth because of this.

Story:
The story had a bit of potential to be interesting. I liked the set-up of the two brothers even if you never saw them together properly. The family had possibility to go further into and the romance wasn't too bad despite the unfortunate dynamics of feeling used and unloved by each other. I couldn't really be happy with the story as it was. It felt a little rushed and missing important elements.

Art:
I wouldn't say the art was a masterpiece but it got the ... job done and nothing seemed too unrealistic. The look of the characters was a little too angled for my taste but ultimately not a problem at all.

Characters:
I didn't really love any of the characters. I didn't know them well enough and the two main guys seemed a little generic and boring. There were other characters that could've gone on to be interesting and if the story had continued the main characters would've had more time to evolve into complex people. There was nothing too wrong with them though but nothing too great either.

Enjoyment:
It was okay. I didn't hate it but I didn't love it. I don't have any plans on reading it again and I wouldn't really recommend it to anyone but it didn't seem like a complete waste of time which is something.

Overall:
This manga is fine. Nothing special but okay if you just want something quick to read with a few sex scenes here and there.
