There have actually been a lot of mangas where the soulmate alpha actually holds back and doesn't jump the MC omega in their first meeting. In many stories the alpha and omega first date and only then the alpha bonds with the omega. That was actually the common trope a couple years ago and that was when people used to wonder if the mating instinct with a soulmate is so high, why won't the alpha do something? So I think artists are now making the ML alpha easy these days. Either waythe whole omegaverse theme is quite predictable... And once you know the pattern you will find it less hot and more boring.
then those readers shouldn’t have yapped so hard, though i wouldn’t put all the blame on them alone. we have alpha perpetrators flocking in cause apparently some artists, for the love of god, cannot find the damn middle ground in their writing. it’s so easy to make an alpha act upon their mating instinct in a clearly consensual environment.
it would’ve made the ml 100000000 times hotter if he won against his instincts but these yaoi artists really do not think out of the box at all. so both alphas have no self restraint and are too weak to keep their dick in their pants, but i’m supposed to feel different about the ml just cause he’s the bottom’s soulmate or whatever? bruh
