i just need to get my thoughts out somewhere. many yaois revolve around themes that echo hallmarks of psychological thrillers: surveillance, secrecy, stalking, deception, emotional entrapment, and sexual assault. however, they're reinterpreted through a romantic lens. sex is a way of exerting power, control, obedience, and subjugation of (very ofte......
i like this as a psychological manhwa and not a romance one so far. im just curious to see where they take this. it seems the ML is capable less of love and more of obsession control and possessiveness. i can easily see him getting bored of haewon after having sex with him or getting into an exclusive relationship with him after a while. im curious to see how the author plans on executing their doomed relationship and how the friend taeshin plays into this.
i know this might be like an exhausted topic, but in my opinion (again, OPINION - don't threaten me or anything) there are no genuine merits to the omegaverse genre. its simply glorified rape fantasies, and characters all fit into this one sex-driven role that dictates their behavior and relationships. it's weirdly predatory and almost pedophilic t......
anyone here get severely weirded out when like the stories on this site feature a romance where this older more dominant man is like creepily lusting after some twink they think is a minor bc they "can't help it he's so pretty" but like they don't act on it bc obviously despite their internal horniness they're the paragon of virtue since the twink ......
umm help me find this historical bl its with this dark haired dude and this long blonde haired twink whose hair is always in this ugly ahh ponytail. all i remember ab the plot is that they highkey hate each other at first and the blondie offers to give other dude a bj for political reasons (doesn't acc happen)
the best fucking shit you've ever read. i can handle mid art for excellent storytelling. no, im not talking about some repeated ahh trashy buff man exploits a twink where their main personality traits are their sex positions, or any variation of that repackaged into something that tricks an unthinking audience into believing its actually good writing. i mean REAAAALLLLY good stuff my standards are high pleaassseee (no diss on ppl who read the stuff i mentioned above - its just not what im looking for rn)
ML is the weakest link. Once abel resurrects he kind of loses the charm to his character and his ditzy nature just kinda falls flat. i don't really see how they can ever redeem the ML. the side characters are excellent and i honestly think the story would benefit from focusing on them/fleshing them out a bit more. the humor of this story is its strongest point. say what you want about it, but it can be rly fucking funny. idk how the story is gonna justify the complete brutality of karas, and it's not even like an interesting exploration into the deformation of morality through war - he's literally just a complete and total monster except when it comes to abel, and knowing abel's character, i really don't think he would like a person like that.
all in all, these characters have the POTENTIAL to be very endearing, but they fall short. i have to say, i'm a bit disappointed. i really hope abel's character isn't neutered for the sake of romance - i don't think he'd support or fall for anyone like abel, and probably will only do so BECAUSE its karas and this story is a romance. im actually interested in seeing the individual character growth of karas himself, outside of abel. does he feel guilt? shame? i wanna know. this could be soooooo good but it just gets lazy at times.
can be any genre, but mc chooses the other hair colored person over the black hair. i feel like black hair always wins. i want to see some diverse hair colors!! #dei
no but like fr plzzz it lowkey gives 2ndml syndrome and thats so me i loooove unexpected endings/relationships. i also hate when ppl end up with their first love, call me jaded
does anyone know of any transmigration/reincarnation stuff where the fmc actually has real romance experience? i guess a more mature mc, where she's had prior romantic relationships cs im sick n tired of watching grown women act like 12 yro girls. i dont mean gooning material, btw, i want like a real story with strong female characters. i dont mean like badass/man hater, i mean well rounded with flaws and someone who doesnt hate femininity (apparently thats the definition of a "strong woman" in a lot of these stories)

with a little bit of development/fleshing out this would be a 10/10 genuinely i am so in love with this its one of my all time faves
its this manhua (chinese), shounen ai. age gap i think?? basically this dude thinks this plant is going to kill him i think its some system thing idk but he sorta acts like a child i think bc of trauma? idk but the ml is older, more gentle.
im talking slowwwwwwww burn romance of any genre, preferably a storyline where romance isnt even the main plotpoint. idc about bl/gl/bg anything that will actually make me lose my mind at how genre-defying and amazing it is. i will NOT have shitty love interests that are weirdly perfect at everything, they must be flawed, they must have genuine character growth, they must not be toxic assholes and if they are they MUST show tangible development as a result of external plot, not JUST the mc being "oh boohoo ur trauma is valid." also my biggest turn off is when side characters are just plot devices/the main leads are shitty to their friends like guys....
does this even exist? lol
