Alright people... this is a simple case of "know what you're getting into". If the subject matter bothers you, then for sanity's sake DON"T WATCH IT. Going in I knew the story: Mira is in love with his father, Kyosuke, and things go wrong during the course of the story and at the end there's a happy Shonen-ai ending. There was no malicious intent in the story, although yes Kyosuke starts many of the... uh, you know.
I rate it low simply because it's predictable and unrealistic. The realationship between Kyosuke and Mira switches from parent and child to lovers so fast at times it
...
will give the veiwer wip-lash and the side relationships with his best friend and his upperclasmen seem to take up space more than anything... not to mention the story takes place in an unreasonably short amount of time. I believe the whole story could've been greatly improved if they took more time to make it longer and space out the events a bit more.
The art, also, is rather average, and typical of shonen-ai anime, giving all the male characters the same eyes except the main uke. There are also periods of super-deformity that seem kind of out of place at first; The animation style is very similer to that of Gravitation (if you're a fan I recomend you see this, if not to just compare notes).
The point is, though I don't believe this is the greatest OVA on the planet, I hate people rating it low because of its shota and incestuous content. Just to drill it in again, this story is about a BOY who is IN LOVE with HIS FATHER, and if SHOTA and INCEST disturbs you, I don't recomend this (gtfo). If, though, you are like me and don't mind that kind of stuff in your Yaoi, the story has a sweet and happy ending, albeit is a bit open-ended, that will leave those veiwers that have managed to stomach it throughout with a content feeling of completeness and is recomended just so you can chalk up another yaoi to your list.
