![]() ![]() Now, I've sometimes heard the OAV Ai No Kusabi described as being one of the pinnacles of the genre, and it's true, it does provide plenty of erotic male bodies while hinting at an interesting story on occasion. It's true that I've seen very few yaoi anime, but what I've found is that their depiction of gay characters frequently come across as melodramatic and astoundingly stereotypical. I have to admit that I've come across very few examples of "shonen-ai" anime that I've actually liked given my ever-strong hope of finding positive depictions of LGBT romance in anime, this depresses me. Meanwhile, Riki has been absent from his gang long enough that his relationship with them has become irreparably damaged, and upon his eventual return he seeks to hide his new status as a blondie's "pet" from Guy, his anxious lover. ![]() ![]() As time passes, however, they, without intending to, begin to turn into something more than "slave and master", which puts Jason at odds with the other elites and places him in a dangerous political position. Apparently out of a sense of internal debt to him and a lack of any other means of repayment, Riki submits himself to Jason as his "pet", a legal sex slave. At the bottom of the hierarchy sit the impoverished "mongrels," one of whom is a frustrated biker named Riki, but one day, Jason, one of society's elite "blondies", suddenly saves Riki from death at the hands of a rival group. In the far future, humans have become a space-faring, technologically-advanced, widespread, and, concurrently, intensely stratified race. This series is sometimes treated as an adult title, since it has sex scenes there's nothing shown onscreen that would legally classify it as pornography in the US, but consider it borderline.
