Yami no Matsuei is a wonderful series. Ever since VIZ announced they had the rights I've wondered if they would edit it. Well on page 147 of Volume four they decided to. It's missing sound effects. As well as the head of one character on the bottom panel in order to obscure the sex scene. Why they decided to do this is a mystery considering the Teen+ parental advisory and other content in volume four and previous ones. So does it spoil the whole book? Any fans can make up their mind, but it certainly calls into question the authenticity of future volumes. Especially since there is more material VIZ may find questionable.

Maybe what makes Yami No Matsuei so delicous is that it is classifed as a yaoi series, but if you pay close attention, it's not...exactly. The relationship between the two main characters is more like a brother/brother, father/son relationship than it is a romantic one. This series is to funny for words-- Tsuzuki is a moron, but he makes you laugh because of it. Hisoka keeps him in line, but they still make you laugh, even though you wonder whilst you are reading it; are these characters gay? The answer to that question is no. Several times you notice that Hisoka and Tsuzuki kiss girls which means that it is not a complete yaoi series. Anyway, this is a great and hilairious manga story, and the boys are H-O-T. Good girlie-girl series, if you know what I mean. However, if'n you're lookin' for guys duking out their problems with lots of blood and gore thrown in, then that's here too. I highly reccomend it.

This is is a good book, keeps you laughing each time you read it
