review 1: This series was incredibly conflicting for me, I was pulled between the cuteness of their relationship and the absolutely horrid circumstances and the countless rape, betrayal and demounting scenes that poor little Ayase is pulled through. Though I loved readin the manga and was thrilled (I was screaming from excitement, my heart wouldn't stop pumping) when I found the anime, i feel sorry for Ayase, yet at the same time, it's just so cute and awesome! Kanou is smokin hot, rich, sexy, stubourn and awesome, he and Ayase are just so horribly perfect together! Also, I ADORE Ayase' clothing, it's just so CUUUTEEE!
review 2: It's hard to separate my feelings about the Ovas from the manga but I'll try *shrugs* No Money chronicles the budding relationship, if you can c... moreall it that, between Yukiya Ayase and Somuku Kanou. Aya-kun is a stereotypically uber feminine, ridiculously naive and kindhearted 19 year old who is sold by his dumb ass cousin to pay off outstanding debts. Kanou-san, a 30 something Yakuza loan shark, buys Ayase because Yukiya helped him after he was beaten up and downtrodden in an alley. Ayase doesn't remember helping Kanou but apparently his kindness moved the supposedly straight Somuku to be attracted to Yukiya. Blah Blah blah. Kanou pays MILLIONS of dollars for Ayase at an auction where some other pervs planned God knows what with him in a seeming gesture of gratitude. BUT Kanou is SO attracted to Ayase that he wants to own him too....and sex his freaking brains out. Yukiya proclaims his heterosexuality and rejects Kanou only to be raped by him. Umm it's worse than it sounds. Kanou proposes than Aya-kun pay off his debt with sex; every time Kanou gets off Ayase gets money reduced from his ridiculous debt. Kanou appears to be a brute but loving and knowing Ayase slowly transforms him to a kinder and more compassionate man ...when he's not raping him or sucking Yukiya off. Ayase appears immature and foolish but this experience also transforms him. I HATE & love so many things about this manga....EDIT 8/1/11When I first read this manga I was new to yaoi. I had NO idea that rape romances were the norm. I'll admit I really enjoy dubcon as a genre of erotica targeted to adults, it's a kink of mine, yeah I know how can I be a feminist and enjoy it?....*shrug* I just do;I can explain it but not here. I lowered my rating of No Money because I'm sick of it. I'm sick of the fragile bottoms, the overly masculine tops, equating rape with love in a medium meant for very young girls. I just hate reinforcing stereotypes *stepping off of my soapbox, for the moment * less
