"Loveless" is more than what the plot tell us about.. In this manga many of necessary questions of life are discussed and experienced that nearly everybody is about to ask at least once in his life.

What is love? Why can we love someone and how can we beloved? What is the reason for living?

Eventhough this manga can not give an answer to these questions it is really interesting to see how the main characters change their minds and behaviours because of personal development. At the beginning you see a really confused and sad Ritsuka who has lost his reason of live. His brother died and he feels alone and overstrainged with the fact someone has killed him.

One day he meets Soubi, who will become an important person in many cases. Together with Soubi Ritsuka begins to search for answers. Priority one questions is: How killed Seimei, his brother. But in the story there is more than only this questions as I explained above. So Ritsuka and Soubi have to make their way beyond love, disappointment, suffer, pain, fear and distress.

Eventhough the plot is exigent, it contains also many of really funny situations.

Loveless is a good mixture of sad and comical aspects and reflexts the characters motives in a clearly understandable way.

While the anime is omiting some necessary aspects of the story making it more difficult to understand, the manga nearly answers all questions. I would recommend reading it, because only after reading it, I was able to find the conclusion.

By the way: In the german version of the manga, Ritsuka and Soubi are two years older than explained in the aarinfantasy description. I think this is because of the current law (because you are not permitted to have a sexual relationsship under 14 years)!)

Sorry for my worse english. ( I am a german and therefore it is not my mother tongue. :-) )



Hope you enjoy it as well!
