->''Green is "forward," and red is "stop." Yellow is "risky." If you dare, go forward at your own risk.''

''Yellow'' is a Yaoi series written and illustrated by Makoto Tateno. Taki and Goh are two young men who [[BuddyCopShow work together]] as drug snatchers for the police. Taking only code "yellow" jobs, both the [[InHarmsWay risk]] and the [[OnlyInItForTheMoney pay]] is high. Despite their excellent teamwork and skill at carrying out these heists, things begin to get increasingly dangerous for them when they start to find their targets dead before they reach the goods. As it turns out, Taki's [[DarkAndTroubledPast dark and troubled past]] has come back to haunt them both.

Since it is a BoysLove series, Goh naturally has far more than [[UnresolvedSexualTension platonic feelings]] for his partner Taki, who is [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday less than amused]] by Goh's advances. [[WillTheyOrWontThey Initially]]. It's been compared to Sanami Matoh's ''{{Manga/FAKE}}'', but is faster-paced and somewhat more explicit.

!!This series provides examples of:

* CircusBrat: Part of [[spoiler:Goh's]] backstory.
* EroticDream: While under the effects of a drug, Goh has one of him and Taki having sex; it's more a hallucination, however.
* IfItsYouItsOkay: Eventually Taki accepts he's fallen in love with Goh.
%%* JamesBondage: Taki.
* LadyKillerInLove: Moreso "guy killer in love," despite Goh's constant flirting with others, he's head over heels for Taki.
* LoveableSexManiac: Goh is somewhere between this and ChivalrousPervert.
* {{Metaphorgotten}}: A conversation over whether Taki or the women who go after him are like moths to a flame leads to an attempted kiss on Goh's part and this exchange:
-->"What are you doing?!" "My kiss is like mothballs."
%%* OppositesAttract
%%* {{Seme}}: Goh
* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Flaming gay Goh is actually the more macho of the pair, whereas the [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday apparently straight]] Taki takes the sensitive guy role as he increasingly gains [[TheWoobie woobie points]]. Not really an inversion though as this goes along with the {{Seme}} and {{Uke}} stereotypes.
%%* SugarAndIcePersonality: Taki.
%%* {{Uke}}: Taki
%%* [[ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend Violently Protective Boyfriend]]: Goh; Taki develops into this later.
