Ai No Kusabi

YAY! My first review, Here goes!


Ai No Kusabi (The Space Inbetween) - Anime
By - Rieko Yoshihara

Very Explicit, no parts showing.

Concluded Series

Ai No Kusabi is a tale of the troubles between two people from the polar ends of society. Isaon, an elite 'Blondie' and Riki, a black haired guy from the slums. Iason is the highest standing living being on their planet, which is controlled by a somewhat-sentiant computer named Jupiter. Riki is some nobody who causes trouble. Iason saves Riki's life and Riki is determined to no be indebted to him, thus agreeing to become Iason's pet. The anime goes though those times and shows their relationship growing, (A la steamy sex scenes) even when set by boundries of owner and pet. (Even better?)

A traditional star-crossed lovers anime. Apparently, the manga goes into much more depth on their social ranks and those effects, as well as their government. I haven't read the manga, and I did just fine. I will tell you right now, the ending is sad, but well worth it. I will not hand out spoilers openly, but if you are like me, you'll wanna know how it ends, so feel free to ask. I really really loved this anime, it was one of the first yaoi things I'd ever seen. Iason and Riki are just the cutest couple, I definately reccomend that you watch this!
