He hates him for imprisoning him and treating him like a toy. His nature is part of his inner struggle to figure out his feelings towards Iason. VAâs are very good and I donât think they could have picked better for those characters.Ĭharacters are about the most interesting part of the story. Incredible opening and ending, both fit perfectly to the anime. Character designs are also very interesting, even of the side characters. Truly amazing, one of the best things about the anime. The only complaint I have about the story is, that itâs unfinished. It all gets even more complicated when Iason decides that Riki had enough freedom and tries to get him back. However, stuff donât go as easily since everyone keeps asking him where he was for the past 3 years and his former lover is trying to get back together with him at all cost. The story follows Riki as he tries to fit back in into slums and regain his past reputation. Riki unsuccessfully tries to escape and Iason, pressed on by other elites decides to free him for a year, hoping he would come back on his own.ĭonât expect any sort of cheesy romance without point or the usual falling in love after being raped thing. After 3 years of captivity, Rikiâs rather restless and keeps making Iason trouble. He finds him interesting so after some events, takes him in as hisâ¦ wellâ¦ pet (read: sex toy). Iason Mink, an elite of the highest degree, encounters Rikki, a mongrel, in slums. The story revolves around an elite and a mongrel but donât get the wrong idea, this isnât a Romeo and Juliet spin off. The society is divided into castes where elites are at the top and mongrels at the bottom. Itâs set in a fictional world with mostly men because of some genetic issues. This adaptation consisted of 4 OVAâs so double the fun, right? Well, yes and no, unless you call unfinished work fun. Itâs first adaptation was airing in 1992-1994 and it had 2 OVAâs. Ai no Kusabi (2012) is the newest adaptation of a light novel of the same name published in 1986-1987.
