Manner of Death is one of those series that had a very interesting premise. A BL series with a murder mystery, forensic investigation, and a darker storyline already sounded refreshing, especially compared to the usual (back then) romance-focused formula. The investigation aspect gave the story a stronger foundation, and I liked that the romance wasn't the only thing carrying the series.

In the other hand it also has everything that comes with an adult relationship, including the steamy scenes—but thankfully, it doesn't feel excessive or added just for fanservice. The amount feels right and fits the relationship and the story. The chemistry between Max and Tul is definitely on point. Their dynamic feels natural, and they carry the romance well.
