Here's a stolen review to give other anon's an idea what it's about:
Three reasons: plot, characterization, and art.
The plot is intricate, complicated, and just very, very interesting. Dinosauroids are a race that is half-dinosaur, half-human, and nearly extinct throughout the world. They can transform from humans into large and dangerous dinosaurs at any given time. However, there are a very low percentage of female dinosauroids born who are not deformed or, frankly, healthy enough to bear children.
This leads to the main story, which starts off with Ayukawa Yuuji, a timid twenty seven year old man who is going through experimental drug therapy at the medical lab he works at. (Directly taken from the summary provided, oi.) The drugs turn out to be more than what anyone but the warped scientist at the lab expected, and Minato, a teenager dinosauroid out briefly in the human world, shows up in Yuuji's room. After a moment of sniffing, he declares that Yuuji smells like a female and that he is taking him back to his village to *"have his kid."*
Except poor Yuuji is sure that he's male, and he has no idea what's going on. However, after the death of one of his roommates by Minato and Minato's own menacing personality towards his protests, he's whisked off by him to his isolated dinosauroid village. This begins a chain reaction as the Yakuza, the medical lab, an intimidating dinosauroid lady dutiful to her clan, a mysterious plague called X syndrome, and the dinosauroid race in general come into situations that revolve around Yuuji and Minato.
