Title: Lovers and Souls
Manga-ka: Kano Miyamoto
Publisher: America - Deux
Age Rating: 18+ / M for Mature
Summary: Shinomiya is a beautiful college art student who lacks the morals common to most people. After agreeing to be a nude model for Matsuoka, a photography student, he also agrees to sleep with him for money even though he is straight. However, what started as a small taste of the forbidden soon spirals out of control when Shinomiya begins selling his body to other guys as a prostitute in a male brothel. Can Matsuoka save Shinomiya from himself?
Warning: Spoiler alerts. Asian name order (Last name, first name).
Shinomiya Toru is heterosexual while Matsuoka Satoshi is homosexual.
In the beginning, he's featured as a nude model for fellow student Matsuoka Satoshi and is an anti-social 'weirdo.' Shinomiya once more becomes Matsuoka's nude model which ends with the both of them having sex where Matsuoka pays for it. After this, Shinomiya starts selling himself to men for cash and ends up working at a Brothel in the local gay district as well as getting Matsuoka to pay for their sexual encounters. Shinomiya hangs around Matsuoka's apartment during his free time and slowly becomes more and more infatuated. At Unicorn (the Brothel) there is Hikaru, who "looks a bit like Matsuoka" and is a bisexual.
As time passes, both Matsuoka and Shinomiya become more infatuated. One day, Matsuoka leaves for Thailand for a photoshoot and Shinomiya is left to wait for him to come back with the promise of going with him to Thailand next time. A while after Matsuoka was to come home, Shinomiya recieves a phonecall and discovers that Matsuoka has died (Told you there was a spoiler!)
This story is probably going to be one of my favorites for a long time.
Kano Miyamoto weaves a gorgeous tale of two boys that become infatuated and eventually fall in love just as tragedy... >>[READ FULL ENTRY]

 A popular manga that has been realised by the English publishing company 801 media (the company behind the English releases of Foreign Love Affair and everyone’s favourite hardcore yaoi Sensitive Pornograph)
Has been made into an anime, the story itself revolves Chiga who has one job keep the class president inline. But as the boy carelessly flaunts his powerful man seducing powers even Chiga finds himself helpless to his charm.
(If this anime is as hot as the manga we’ll have some yummy smut scenes)
The anime has been produced by Primetime and is already circulating the net with a Chinese sub, an English sub has yet to be found by me at least and so far there has been no hint that aarin will be releasing an Englished subbed version.
(sorry for so little infomation i really dont want to give away the plot of this one, and have found very little info on the anime)

| Rose Maiden OVA 2 |

The story of Taki and Klaus continue in the second episode of the latest yaoi smash hit Rose Maiden. To those out there that have yet to see the first you can still download it at aarinfantasy or watch it right here on yaoi-haven.
(I’m sure if we ask munkii very nicely he will put the second ep up for us!)
The story of the series revolves around a commander of sublime beauty (his a total bishie in other words) named Taki Reizen and the man that swore his loyalty to him as his faithful knight named Klaus who has earned the nickname Mad Dog.
Needless to say there are many people talking behind there backs on this with disapproving tongues, one is left to wonder at times if this relationship can last in a time of war and violence.

 Now I know what a lot of you out there are thinking ‘Who is Kuro-kun?’ well mistress is going to tell you. Kuro is a cute little shota who is sold by his father into servitude to pay off the man’s debt. Unfortunately for Kuro he is forced by his new master to work as a maid, dressed as a maid.
Now a lot of mainstream yaoi fans may not even know of this little ero-manga series due to the fact its almost impossible to find translated versions of it (seriously it’s like trying to find that one gravi megamix that involves Eiri and Yuki translated.) I myself have read a few translated volumes and will say this is not a series for the faint of heart.
But on to the anime, it seems our old friends at 37C Studio are behind creating this little anime (we of cource all know this is the company behind the pico series!)
The one worry I have about this anime however is the content of manga and if it is true to the original work how fans of the shota genre will react to a young shota crossdresser being tortured.
If you're looking for something that will make you tear up and squeal like a fangirl at lovely bishies, then this will not be the anime for you, but if like myself you have a love of the darker side of the yaoi genre then this will be a title to look out for at our favourite place to download yaoi anime, Aarinfantasy.

 As you know we are still building the Yaoi-Haven Journal staff and we have a special request! This job is one that should be a lot of fun and I hope we get a lot of interest.
The job? Monthly columnist for "Top 10..." I'm sure you've all seen columns like this. Every month the Top 10 will be a different subject. Top 10 Anime Couples, Top 10 Worst Christmas Presents, Top 10 Things Not to Tell a Cop. ANYTHING!
Think your up for the job? Want to know what we need?
1. Someone who is willing to put a little bit of time in a month to the journal. These articles will be fairly short and therefore even someone who is pretty busy can apply for the job!
2. Wit! You love to joke around and laugh? Then you are perfect for this job!
3. Creativity! You get to decided what the subject is! If you want a job where you get to choose your own topic then this is the staff position for you!
If you are interested please email me at sammiebambam@gmail.com with your submission (shown below).
Name:
Username:
Prompt: Write a Top 10 list for "Top 10 Halloween Costumes" As stated before, this is a simple staff position. We still need someone dedicated but for those of you who expressed interest in the journal but didn't think you had enough free time, this is for you!
*EDITED* please read!
Some people seem confused by what I'm asking for so I will clarify! Sorry!  This is NOT a list. It is an article so you do need to write. The article should start with a small introduction and then for each item a small comment should be written describing the item.
example.
Top 10 Halloween Costumes
Halloween is just around the corner and every year it's a pain to figure out what to dress up as. Do I dress up as Bush? A Ghost? A Zombie? Hell maybe I wont dress up at all, I will go naked! Well let me tell you this; don't go with the birthday suit. Your night will end rather quickly once the person you thought was only dressed up as a cop handcuffs you in the back of... >>[READ FULL ENTRY]
