Anyone here volunteering for a little friendly stalking?
I'm out of completed mangas to read and my wtr list is full of unfinished/ i dont even know why i added this/ dropped /absolutely forsaken stuff.
I like BL, horror, action, supernatural, comedy
I'm not really into plain romance, omegaverses, bdsmverses, whateverTheFuckVerses
I'm not an English native so i get easily confused by bad translations
I'm bored
But the MC alone alone makes the read worth it, the dude is hilarious
We should all have a hitman for hire bank account and carry around a fucking hammer xD
The story is messy, the author just threw in their ideas without really organising them, the rhythm sucks (the events really didn't flow naturally, there were huge ass pauses here and there so the protagonists.... Could fuck --'
Before resuming the plot) but the art was nice and like i said... The MC. He's the mvp here
I swear we're getting closer with each new manwha to those weird ass bara where dudes go around with human sized dicks tucked in their shirt all the way up to their chin (these are hilarious tho)
Okay, so the 30 first chapters were okay, we got to know their situation and see it somehow unravel but ... I found it boring at some point.
When they finally got together it was pretty much a succession of premium seme assholeness demonstrations with a little flashback of chae heon's childhood and it ended on a full disclosure of his obsession which made him a lot more antagonistic to me.
Aaaaall the side characters disappeared until they were the only ones left in this story.
In the end, it's just one more BL based on miscommunication, the art was very very nice though
To see some ADULTS with PUBIC HAIR, dick sized dicks and a censorship that doesnt look like a hole in the drawing that makes shit look like some weird ass lolicon porn.
It was sweet, there was no unnecessary drama and their doubts and insecurities were legit, and didnt magically resolve for the sake of an unrealistic and incoherent happy end.
The characters are very endearing and the story was very sweet.
And thank god humans don't shit in yaoi because that boy's butthole never has a chance to shut.
This is unreadable, even the protagonist's name changes several times/chapters.
The dialogues don't just seem stupid and unnatural, most of the time it doesnt even make sense and the pages seems mixed up.
This thing
Nope
It doesn't work.
I know since I'm not too fond of omegaverses and that i might appear biased but no, this is not even the problem here
Let's leave it aside, okay
The problem here
Beside the characters, oh god i fucking hate them, they are all colossal shits
Is the HUMOUR
FFS IT MADE ME SO FUCKING UNCOMFORTABLE IT TOTALLY RUINED THE IMMERSION
Am i supposed to find it funny? Am i supposed to find it cute??? It just felt like two different stories got mixed up and ended up giving birth to this... Anomaly.
And it didn't make me uncomfortable like horror stories are supposed to, it made me uncomfortable like... A cockroach swimming in my cappuccino.
Not one in my untouched mug, a cockroach having the time of its life in the the mug i have been sipping on for a whole hour while distractingly noticing something moving in it but not paying any mind until i actually felt its legs on my lips and made eye contact.
This is about a man cheating with the parent of his lover and making them pregnant and there s all this cutesy comical figures in the middle trying to make it "lighter" so that I'll accept your typical good ending????
No, no, nope. Ughhhh. Absolutely not.
And thanks for not finishing it.
I almost dropped at ch 1, and should have.
Starts with a sex scene.
Useless as always.
The sex scene appear to be a rape.
Yay.
Falls in love with his rapist then rapes him too.
Omg.
The plot could have been good but it ended up being nothing but unpleasant series of situations.
You can't get attached to any side characters because they re just passing by.
Showing how shit was handled at the appearance of mmorpgs events in real world could have been a good idea, but the author just ignored all the codes of the genre so in the end, it was just monsters crawling out of random ass mysterious pop-up holes vs military, oh wait, this was tagged yaoi, lets make them non-con fuck for 3 chapters, end.
Edit
I just read the author is deceased. Well... Rip dugo, i wish you'd have found your calling when you were alive, writing was definitely not it.
Chapter one, 7th panel, immersion ruined.
You editors are getting better at damaging stuff, huh.
If you re so dead set on white washing series, know that in our countries of dumbasses where people are called eric and jace, they are rarely called baek and yoon and military service is not mandatory.
This was .. so bland! So flat! So boring! So badly translated, drawn, colored and written.
The characters are all expressionless, the colors seem faded, there's no chemistry between any of the characters, i was expecting it all to be so bland to make the great reveal stand out more, like look! They all flatter than the 2D characters they are, but TADA!! it was because of THIS!!!
But nope.
It was just tasteless, rhythmless, colorless, from beginning to end.
Even when they explain a situation, it feels like they don't finish. Part of this is probably because of the bad translation, but the whole story and drawing are as much responsible for this lack of everything.
It was very, very bad.
It was neither interesting nor pleasant to look at.
Hey seriously it's not bad, not bad at all! Would i even dare to say it was good???
Look there was character developments, parts of the plot didn't vanish into thin air, there were CONSEQUENCES TO ACTIONS/EVENTS!!!
For a BL this MUST be mentioned!
Also the police DOES exist and they did their fucking job, and ffs the characters have NORMAL REACTIONS!
I'm thinking of the woman who threw her phone at the ghost, the coworker who got absolutely terrified and the nerd neighbour who called the police and ran away while facing the ... Thing.
Not gonna lie, i almost dropped it at chapter 1, i briefly saw some comments trashing it and when i started reading, i was greatly displeased by the chara-design, they just looked like highschool kids and one went and said ''come on, I've been married for 3years" i felt... Ugh, what am i getting into.
Still thought that I'd continue a bit though for a horror story, the art was too "cute and clean" and the protagonist looked too young and pretty, while thinking about this one comment " it's not scary at aaaaalllll"
EXCUUUUUUSE YOU WHAT THE MOTHERFUCKING HELLLLLLLL WAS THAT!
I so wasn't prepared to see the creature!!!
Ah well yes, it's described as a ghost story but their characteristics seems more of a monster's to me, and hey... It was good. In this story's universe where ghosts do exist, the author didn't use it as an excuse to justify any shit like "shut up, it's magic".
I also like the fact that mc did think about what he's done wrong and wasn't just your typical victim so pure and magnificent that never fucked up, the ghosts' actions and appearances didnt just come out of nowhere either, the protagonists have lots of flaws and are working on it.
The only dissatisfaction I have is about that random ass love story, i would have felt it more if they just stayed friends, especially since in the chapter before the last, they mention that AAAAAAAAALL OF THIS happened in just two weeks. Two. Weeks.
That... Huh. That's not enough to build a love story, especially since so much happened in this short timeframe.
Honestly, it WAS interesting. But also a bit of a let down on some aspects.
First, the story was pretty complicated, so the 30 last chapters censored, made it even harder to understand.
I even wonder what exactly the 58 R 15, which became 55 first chapters thanks to the censorship looked like but well...
There were lots of names dropped altogether but some characters just never or rarely appeared, which was confusing as hell.
The whole plot was awesome though complexe and the love story didn't occult it, but... Wasnt the end rushed???
I mean, they went to such great lengths to achieve their goals, but finally things get more or less resolved by releasing a video through the media, and now the bad guy is gonna struggle but the good guys are getting there somehow and the last major event was due to some random asshole who appeared in five panels in the middle of season 1 and they live happily ever after end??
Really?
This is so vague!
What happens to the little bro?
What happens to the board directors?
What happens to mr kim?
What's gonna happen with samjo and white entertainment?
What happens to the hidden son who was at the same time always and never here?
What happens to jangwoo?
What happens to the DOGS???
Did the author literally abandon Tom and Jerry in the dog hotel for the rest of their fictive dog lives???!
