Honestly I was so shocked to read the comments and find people didn’t like this? I thought it was honestly a really refreshing take on omegaverse, I ADORE joohyuk as a character, a man that yearns is a man that earns, I love his personality. I thought the premise was interesting, and the quality of the translation was so good, the like lyricism?? use of euphemisms?? I dunno what to call it but it was great! Yes, the rape montage was absolutely unnecessary, and although not unusual in genre, shouldn’t excuse it, and yes, there are bl’s that people hold in much higher regard with much worse scenes involving the main love interest, but I still for sure see that as a negative. The ONLY semi-well done part about that was that we see the mc have SOME kind of negative pheromone aversion as a result, usually in most BL’s after the main character gets assaulted, it’s completely disregarded in the effects of going through said assault or never talked about again, making light of what it can be like for someone that has gone through that and the effect of it. Yes, there’s for sure some plot holes and some stuff that wasn’t super clear / consistent with this authors version of the omegaverse, but the story was genuinely so entertaining that it was easy for me to overlook. Also ngl the fact that joohyuk was such a true eater was so hot, like bro just did it for the love of the game and I respect that. Would read this again!
