Gravitation

I apologize if this is inappropriate due to no relation to either Digimon or the people on this board. If that is the basis for posting things here, then I will understand if this is deleted. I just didn't see it as a rule here.
Anyway, who here has seen or heard of an anime/manga called Gravitation? I just bought graphic novel #1 yesterday, and I love it! I had previously heard that it directly addressed gay relationships, and that made it immediately fly into my arms! It's not just a small thing like in Sailor Moon with the briefly known lesbians; it involves the actual plot with both of the stars. :D I intend to read through the whole manga series, then go after the anime. I know, that will definitely take a long time with my budget, but I don't care. I'm basically in love with this thing!
To end this off with a bang, here's one of its publicity pictures that's one of my favorites for an obvious reason.

There was a recent article in the national Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual/Trans magazine The Advocate about yaoi, yuri, and gay themes in manga and anime, and how they were becomeing more popular and more available in North America. They briefly mentioned Gravitation, I think, in a sidebar article where they recommended different series based on how queer they were (or something like that). They gave Ranma a 1 for its gender-bending comedy, and also recommened Sailor Moon (a 2?) and Revolutionary Girl Utena (a 5?). But they gave Gravitation a 10 for being the gayest anime series out there. I wish the article was up on their site, but I don't think it is.

I've yet to see it, but it did kind of peak my interest. I hope it's more than just an animated porno though.

It's definitely not a porno. I've seen a couple of pictures of a dream sequence with them in bed, but the only dicks we ever see are not really pornographic. They're just in comedic kind of pictures, like where usually well-drawn characters become small, blocky characters with mouthless expressions.

I love Gravitation sooo much!! ^__^ The manga and anime are just shonen ai, there's kissing but everything else is merely implied. What you need if you like hard yaoi is the Gravitation 'Remix' series, a doujinshi series 'spin off' which is absolutely filthy and extremely graphic, and involves just about every character pairing you could think of from the series. There are some scanned and on the net if you know where to look for them ^_~
