Summary:
Young Shinri knows a lot about tea. So when his estranged father invites him to come and work at his new café, Shinri jumps at the chance. There’s one catch, though; the café staff are all former yakuza, and the only thing more dangerous than their tempers is their horrible tea! Shinri becomes their new waiter and soon finds he has a new “bodyguard” of sorts: the intense and loyal ex-henchman Mikado. But one night, when Shinri touches the tattoo on Mikado’s back, he unleashes the passion of a “dragon”…

Reviewer: Heather

"Yakuza Cafe" had an interesting idea, but it just wasn't pulled off well. It seemed like they wanted to do too many different things. Shinri's former yakuza boss father is the king of waterworks -- in a silly style that seems more like kids manga than yaoi. I never really understood why Mikado fell in love with Shinri. According to another character, Mikado has been in love with Shinri since Shinri was a kid; we're never told WHY. The "dragon"/first (and only) sex scene was pretty rape-like and Shinri just goes on about his life the next day like nothing happened. I can see why this manga ended up nearly half-price in no time at all. Do yourself a favor and skip this one.
