It's quite graphic with dubious shades of non con but that's really difficult to determine because I think Mamoru brings the "slut" out in everyone. But Tomoe (<3) puts up with Mamoru's "advances" and "molestations" for seemingly very "secret mission" type reasons (he's such a self sacraficing little ninja). Further, every time Mamoru puts the moves on someone, it's not without legitimate reason.
It's strange because while the book drew me for the smut, and even though the "screaming ukes" annoyed me, once Insaneneko explained the plot to me, I stopped caring about the smut. Even when I got Volume 4 recently, I skimmed right past the smut looking to see what happened. The subsequent volumes are just riddled with a complex plot that causes one's mind to melt.
I don't know if it's your cup of tea, but the character interactions and story just endear me to it in a way the smut can't.
