That's because Shuichi is a GIRL, which goes beyond uke.
Ryo from FAKE is a pretty stereotypical uke (FAKE was actually the first series I ever read, and the ukes never seemed to change from there). Loveless, Kizuna, and Zetsuai, I don't know, but Riki not a stereotypical uke are you KIDDING ME? Sure, maybe not for the first half, but gahekjgaeht HE GETS SO WEEPY AND ANGSTY (and omg clingy guilty woeeees to Iason) LATER that I started hating his character for doing a 180.
