not to mention the same people who leave low ratings on titles like this throw five stars at anything that's popular and OBJECTIVELY way worst or just plain stupid and lazy
also people these days overuse the word toxic to describe bls to the point of the word losing its actual meaning and i hate it. calling tiles like incomplete combustion toxic feels lowkey insulting, lmao, hear me out, there is a huge difference between having a character go through hell only for the main lead to understand his wrongdoings and have a redemption arc so the story can have a happy ending, and having a character go through hell because it's a big part of the story, the plot focuses on his trauma and his suffering is not only there as a plot device for another character to change (but somehow very often the latter has a lower rating than the other one)
you get me, right

100%! Say it Louder for the people at the back!! You explained this perfectly! People be calling every CONFLICT that's outside their comfort zone toxic.. that the word toxic has lost its meaning.
I only called Incomplete Combustion toxic to go down to their level, because it's what they understand it as.. and you're right it's INSULTING to call incomplete combustion toxic. It's like calling a masterpiece like MISSING LOVE toxic. Not every story is for everyone.. because a 5 STAR STORY like this will not be appreciated by those with low understanding of this concept.
The people expecting a toxicity-free story here after clicking the h*ntai x bd*m themed photo cover are insane. From the cover alone you expect this to be full of rough and aggressive fcking.. it's a H*NTAI COVER hinting lots of "chains" and dirty s*x. You CLICKED IT! Yet cry at every page with toxicity, conflict, or hint of trauma??
You kept on reading despite seeing the h*ntai-like cover, after seeing the old man FINGERING YESUNG... did you expect it to be fluff or normal like Heesu in class 2, Nerd project or Semantic error? I don't understand the crying and moaning saying "I can't handle this.." "it's too much" like you're a victim.
For a BD*M STORY this deserves 5 STARS. Yet the rating keeps of dropping from 9.3, it's now 9.1 because THE WRONG PEOPLE KEEP ON READING IT.
