I’m not really into the hardcore bdsm more like the sadistic partner is very cute and wholesome daily (not faking it but really being like that) and then in bed he gets a sadistic streak. I have to look through my list of already read manga but at the top of my head I recommend: junai dropout (my favourite sm bl, probably one of the top 5 most wholesome smut I’ve ever read), Yakuza wo Shibatte Ii desu ka (soo freaking cute and wholesome and healthy while still pretty erotic!), then I also like Ai Subeki Sadist. I’d definitely recommend those, these are my fav sm mangas (hope I didn’t forget any) and they also are one of my favourite bl manga in general, reread all of them multiple times

Okay the art is wonderful. I’m very particular about reading bdsm stories cause a lot of them mix bdsm with not consensual stuff and that pisses me off. Cause obviously even if it’s bdsm it shouldn’t have dub con or unconsensual stuff in it. This one is surprisingly healthy about it. With the seme saying stuff like they should keep it in the bedroom and he also tries to be as gentle as possible and tries to ease the uke in.
The thing I don’t like about this story is the possessiveness though. I really hate possessive ppl especially things like wearing a collar at work or saying things like “I don’t want others to see you” or “I want to lock you up” scare and creep the living hell out of me. Also I don’t like that the uke resigned his job bc of his boyfriend.
So all in all I liked it from the bdsm and consent perspective (if I didn’t miss anything) but the possessiveness is a definite nono. Still the manga was better (and healthier) than expected
