Review 106: $10


Art: 8
Plot: 5
Characters: 7
Sex: 7

Lemme just say that I'm immediately suspicious of a yaoi called '$10'. I mean really. Well, my suspicions were correct... at least, in part. And this is, regrettably, yet another 'bad yaoi'. The art is all right, but the plot is a tangled mess of melodrama and duplicity. How very lame.
The plot follows these guys who have been best friends since they can remember. One is a responsible, mature guy, while the other cavorts with women carelessly and always makes the other guy talk to the girls for him and handle any problems. Living childishly like this, he just expects his friend to take care of all of his problems with nothing in return. The truly irritating part is when the supposedly responsible guy decides to lie to the careless guy and confirms that his girlfriend is pregnant. Mr. Careless says he'll give blowjobs to some guys to get money and deal with it, but Mr. Responsible isn't having that, and suddenly offers his friend money to sex him up. Wow... seriously? Then they both find out that they were deceiving each other in various ways. Messed-up.
The characters, if you can't tell by the plot, are pretty annoying. But... I can't help but think that they're somewhat deep if they evoke such an emotion. Some points given.
The sex is all right, I suppose. I was distracted by the awful plot at the time, and the money that was changing hands.
All in all, 27/30.
Recommendation: Not again...
