Synopsis

Even though Ranmaru Oumi spends his wedding night on an extravagant European cruise, he is not pleased. His new marriage is loveless, staged only to create an alliance between two yakuza clans. To make matters worse, Ranmaru fights with his bride, leading them to separate for the rest of the day.

As he wastes his time at the bar, Ranmaru meets Albert Valentino, an Italian man obsessed with Japanese culture. As they bond throughout the evening, their relationship blooms into something more.

Okay, let me start by saying that I haven't reviewed many things before, also, I watched this while I had been drinking a couple tequila sunrises so my judgement may be a little goofy.

I'm only giving this a 6 because if it was just the first episode I would've loved it but the second episode only seems to exist because someone asked "What can we do to make this worse?". So I thought I should warn people. Since I regret watching the second episode. Unless you're into fucked up shit.

The reason why l gave the story a 4 is because there is no story. OMFG the whole thing is just basically sex.

After the whole cruise thing, it is revealed that Al is the captain of the ship. Very convenient isn't it??? He just so happens to be in control of the ship. He waited until the main character (I can't even remember his name anymore) was drunk like wtf?????? Also, ...
