Diece is one of those mangas that you wish have 150 chapters instead of 43. Diece has a wide set of complex characters that you will fall in love with as you move along. The characters pull you in to the story and makes you want to read more about them.
But why did I only give it a 7/10? THe main reason would be the manga wasted its potential to be great. The character and plot build up was wasted on the last three chapters, if only there was a way to make this series longer and have a more satisfying ending, ughh.
But if ... you remove the ending (the last 2-3 chapters) and think of the manga as some on-going series I'm sure you'll love it and give it a higher number.

Genwaku no Kodou can be slightly confusing during the first few chapters. It introduced a lot of characters and shifted from one setting to another, but as the story continued, I started to enjoy it and began to want more, I couldn't keep my eyes off the manga. In terms of delivering the story, the author had problems with pacing, there were times that the story was too slow and nothing was really happening and then there times that it was rushed. What I like most about the story however was the characters, the characters of the story were really able to grow and developed ... throughout the chapters. And of course the BL scenes gave me more hope for this series and the story's depiction of the trauma Kou experienced in the story was also well done. Overall I give this manga a 6/10 for the enjoyment it gave me and for the BL scenes.
