On planet Amoi, a great society has developed, creating a computerized city called Tanagura, ruled by supercomputer Jupiter. The populace is almost entirely male and is based on hair color; anyone silver/blond are the elite, with dark/black hair as the bottom of society, often known as "mongrels". Blonds have "pets", which are usually young boys kept for a few years, who are especially made for performing sexual actions for the Blond's voyeurism entertainment. The pets are not supposed to be kept for long, nor are Blonds allowed to interact sexually with them; but one Blond, named Iason Mink, has kept a pet for years. Mink is also rumored to sleep with his pet named Riki and refuses to let go of him; despite Jupiter's disapproval. Riki fights with his emotions and society problems, unable to decide what to do about his old friend/lover Gai (Guy) and their gang. Iason is obsessed with keeping Riki, and Riki doesn't know what to do; fight against him or surrender to him.

even though the premise and world system borders on problematic, these classic yaoi’s will always have my heart
from one of the directors of sdf macross and macross: do you remember love, comes a futuristic and revolutionary sci-fi yaoi. the “pet” system feels problematic but after thinking about it, it’s just an allegory for slavery
"If I said I loved Riki. Would you laugh, Raoul?"because of a rigid class system or hierarchy, falling in love with a low-class mongrel is taboo, and in order to contextualise his feelings and be close to the person he loves, he has to ruin Riki’s life, just because they are not meant to be together. this parallels the feelings of slave masters who develop feelings for their slaves in the past. they are not cruel, not evil, they just have no other way to show their affection.
