I despise people (whether in hetero relationship or other) who intentionally hurt the one they claim to love just to diminish their own insecurities as in: "I'll make him suffer, feel worthless and humiliated and cry just to snatch a confession so that I don't feel so insecure and I can be sure he won't leave me"
That's pathetic and if someone does that to me in real life I'd cut off their balls and force feed them the smoothie
Who would've thought that this would have a happy ending after all?
I'm just confused about Itou san looking so old. I mean he is 13 years older than the uke but the uke, at the end (after 5 years), should be around his early twenties (he doesn't look close to thirty at all).
So the seme should be in his mid thirties and late thirties tops, if we assume the uke is 27 by the end. Yet Itou san looks like he is in his mid fifties...
Trauma and tragedy age us quicker!
I'm not a whiny person when it comes to reading a lot of text after all, I read and enjoy literature but the thing with this mangaka is that it is too extreme and confusing and often very distracting.
The art is absolutely gorgeous and unique, there is no other mangaka whose art is even a tiny bit similar to this so that's a plus but the amount of text is maddening. Especially when it's all over the place (not just in the speech bubble and/or those straight lines indicating a character's thoughts), those extra flowing bits that usually don't fo over 6 words for other mangakas are a whole paragraph for this one.
If you're new here and hesistating whether or not to read this, I say go fot it, it has nice art, good plot and funny story but be prepared to pull your hair out along the way
I love this mangaka's work and I'm not even a huge fan of luff but the way he/she draws the characters and presents the story is great
That moment when you've read so many yaoi stories for over a decade and you've gained the power to recognize whether the tory is going to be twisted or not based on the first few panels and the feeling of the artwork
I honestly don't like omega stories but I just get pulled by the beautiful art and I click before seeing the tag (sometimes it doesn't even have the tag so that's even more surprising) and once I read a bit I get curious. The reason I don't like them is because:
1- I can't handle "male pregnancy" that most of these stories have
2- Most of them portray omegas as these characters that are lustful, think with lower halves and by no means faithful in a relationship. They just seek pleasure like animals in heat and are never satisfied
I realise that this story has a lightened up version of that but they all have the same theme. 90% of the omega characters I've read about have been victims of gang rape or some sort of manipulation using their submissive hormonal nature against them.
I don't understand this:
1- They both got away from the guy who made Ito, until this point, I get it
2- They got involved as a teacher and student. At this point, I think Ito has his memories and the boy doesn't recall everything (at this point Ito san doesn't look older so I'm assuming this is around the same year they escaped Ito's boss.
3- The jump to 5 years where the boy is bartending! This is the most confusing part! If he got involved with Ito when he was a teacher then why can't he remember him? Why does it look like the student/teacher thing never happened?
The student/teacher relationship is a story from parallel world.
So its what if Ito didn't get kidnapped and trained to become an assasin and what if kyousuke's mom didn't abandoned him so he didn't become a prostitute.
So basically it is pure fantasy and it never happened? makes sense but putting it there in between chapters threw me off. I didn't realise the chapter was called "extra-parallel world" because I read the chapters back to back without seeing the titles and I was just eagerly clicking after reading each page just to see what happens next. Thank you for clarifying that :)
youre welcome~
I'm reading this because I heard there is going to be an anime of it so I thought I'd read the manga. This has too much sex to be turned into a shounen ai to be honest so I wonder how they're going to pull it off. But if they end up doing it, then maybe there is a chance for one of my favorite yaois "totally captivated" to be animated as well. Aside from being Korean (most animes are based on japanese manga and not korean manhwa), I didn't think it stood a chance because it has too much hardcre sex but if this can make it then why the hell can't "totally captivated"
Dude, they don't get animated just to satisfy you (or minority). There's a reason for only certain mangas get to be animated. They won't be animated unless they think it'll sell. This manga isn't that amazing (was just decent for me), but if you have read all chapters, it still does have the story (it's not only about hc sex, or rape) and the characters. Its sale ranking in Japan is pretty high. The characters seem to be pretty popular. I guess Japanese girls are more attracted to these kind of characters.
Even the most popular series like, Finder/Junjou/Hidoku and many others begin the story with raping. And the stories slowly become lovely later.
Shhiitttt junjou And sekaii are huge hit animes and there is sex on like every page of those damn things lol in sekaii I noticed where there was sex in the manga it was tweeked a little to either not have the sex scene at all or just show making out. In junjou it just shows a couple of the sex scenes and you don’t see like dicks or anything lol
Although this mangaka gets a point for not making the seme rape the uke just to get his point across, this still sucks.
I know this is just a manga and I shouldn't take it too seriously especially since it's a oneshot and nothing can be expected from those but I always analyse things I read/watch/hear so it goes:
I don't have that much of an experience with romance in real life but I have strong opinions about being clear about certain things while in a relationship. Pulling the " let's make my partner jealous by going on a date with another person/accepting a marriage proposal/ pretending to be too close to a friend..." card is just stupid!!! If you want to know what you mean for your partner ask them! What's with the extreme stupidity behind hurting your partner and making them feel anxious and insecure just to diminish your own insecurity.
They both have equally horrible characters but I find Ichi more irritating. At first, I hated Kou more but thinking about it, that's his character, Ichi should've said something like "I hate that you make me feel inferior just to feed your ego" if he hated his character. Instead he was getting too close to the other guy and feeding off Kou's insecurities.... Again, Kou isn't a saint but Ichi is much worse. You either tell your partner they're doing something that offends you/irritates you, you break up with them or you stay 100% faithful in the relationship that's it!
True. Also u can see a bit as to why Kou acted the way he did. He never really believed Ichi loved him. Cuz when he confessed Kou thought to himself that Ichi was only doing so so he could throw Kou away like to forget about him. For Kou that showed him that Ichi’s love in the beginning wasnt genuine I suppose. Kou could never understand where Ichi was coming seeing how twisted n rude he is to begin with. Ichi expected too much from a person he didn’t seem to really know is what it seemed like to me. So when Kou finally figured out HE was the one in love my heart broken for him. Kou isn’t ur normal so don’t treat n assume so. Communicate with ur damn words if ya wanna be heard.
Damn this turned out longer than I thought
I FUCKING LOVE THIS COMMENT!!! Let's all be sensible here; cheating is worse than bad personality! SOMETIMES IT'S THE OTHER WAY ROUND! BUT THTS NOT THE CASE HERE!!!
╮(￣▽￣)╭
Yes, thank you for this
Very true
