Comedy! Action set pieces! Conspiracies! Romance?!?
This manga is solid and could appeal to a lot of different audiences if they gave it a try. It is not your typical BL with a mopey yakuza backdrop, but more like a buddy cop story that leans into how gay that dynamic is. The leads also have a clear, shared goal they're striving towards and that helps give the manga a sense of movement and purpose, that makes you want to keep reading. So for now I hope this keeps getting scanslated and for the future, well, if no English publisher picks this up, they're all making a mistake.
