Wait, how did he go from trembling rabbit to homme fatale in, like, a page? What? Huh?
Short sighted as usual.
How perfectly odd that Shinwoo gets to act all self-righteous lolol. I'm sure it's mostly just his ego hurt. However, they were both putting on an act for each other with Sebin unwilling to break things off so whatever it takes, I accept.
No one should be grateful that their partner is willing to live a lie in order to keep them around using the excuse that it's done out of love and care. That they're willing to lose themself and any vestige of self-identity even when it involves something that goes profoundly against their own needs, desires, and ideals. That's not love and that reasoning is borderline emotionally manipulative. That's pretty far from "perfect boyfriend" material and makes me wonder about some of y'alls private lives but that's none of my business.
Shinwoo's lies and cheating were obviously no good either. Whew. I hope this break up sticks and things can finally progress.
I appreciate the creator for producing such a complex story and characters despite the romanticisation of abuse, although it's early days yet; there's a lot of space in the story for Lamyo to show it for what it is.
It's always disappointing the way too many readers demonize a character for cheating, so much so that everyone else's flaws become a non-issue.
Shinwoo shouldn't have cheated but Taesoo KNEW that he had a boyfriend and pursued him anyway. In fact, he engaged in destructive, toxic behaviour when he deliberately tried to destroy the relationship. The hickeys, calling at 3:00 AM, writing "nasty" on his back--all of that was done to deliberately cause a break up. I was so relieved when Shinwoo refused to date him in that moment lol. While Taesoo is far more sexually compatible with him, rewarding that kind of abusive behaviour, jumping from one relationship to the next, to another situation where he would also be financially dependent when Taesoo has proved to be controlling is a huge no no lol.
But it's also time for him and Sebin to call it quits :(. Shinwoo knows he doesn't really love him and that he's only engaging in BDSM play to please him. He knows he's taking advantage. I wonder what's in Sebin's past that made him have such a personality? Why is he so afraid of his anger?
In any case, Sebin is in the wrong for viewing BDSM relationships as abnormal and somehow lacking in love simply because it doesn't fit into how *he* expresses and wants to receive love. And honestly I think he is happy with the fact that Shinwoo depends on him financially because he sees that as another way to keep him around. He's definitely the less guilty party here, despite all that, and I really want him to find the courage to break things off. I'm worried that when he reaches a breaking point and finally acknowledges his anger HE'LL become abusive. Save yourself, Sebin!
I haven't read a series this good in a while!
Your post really encapsulates my feelings on this series really well. Personally, I believe Sebin is the type who has always gotten what he wanted so it’s only natural for him to have Shinwoo, even if he has to work hard for it. But he also has this tendency to see who he wishes Shinwoo was rather than face the reality of who he is.
Thank you, finally a comment that isn’t someone saying “fucking stupid use, I hate you”... it’s more complex and your comment is great
Oooo, I hadn't looked at Sebin that way but that's such an interesting take, I like it--that he's used to getting what he wants and won't hear no. I need more of his backstory as he's probably the character I find most intriguing right now
Thank you! (⌒▽⌒). I don't comment as much these days but gosh I thought this series deserved better than what I was seeing lolol.
If that isn't Senzaki I'm gonna riot.
SPOILERS!!!

If you’re talking about the sunglasses wearing dude in the final page... it isn’t Senzaki... sorry
He's Eno and he's a queen of another class
lolol yeah, I remember him appearing in an earlier chapter looking down from a window. I just wanted to dream a little. I miss Senzaki so much.
Also, Shun went through so much trouble to hide the spoiler to give persons some control and you just made that pointless. thanks, I guess.
Completely grossed out at how Shii is coercing and manipulating Tamaki into a relationship and then getting indignant at being called "weird". He's made it all about him and his feelings and has spent 1% of his energy trying to figure out Tamaki's thoughts and feelings outside of what impact it will have on his chances.
I saw someone in a previous comment talk about how hellish it is to be gay and in love with your cis friend. Waahh, he tortured himself for 3 years how horrible. Do you know what's 10,000 times more hellish? Child abuse. Which is what Tamaki has gone through but of course persons sympathize more Shii, rather than Tamaki who has a traumatic past linked to abusive sexual situations who now has to deal with his best friend coercing him into...sexual situations. Kyaaa!
This story line is evidence of this mangaka's brilliance? I am so fucking tired of talented mangakas indulging in tired tropes like this without any evidence of self-awareness. Whatever.
What do u mean shii doesn't know that tamaki was being child abuse or anything but yea ur right but it doesn't also mean that what shii gin through is nothing so shut the fuck up
No. lol what is it with the children here who can't simply disagree without indulging in immature antics. If your opinion isn't strong enough to be expressed on its own without them why bother.
I am sorry if I used a innaproperiate words I apologise but u also used it like fucking tired weirdo etc... But I just say what I feel like just like u did but my point was strong yea he may force it to him but he still doesn't know of his situation until he ask about it or even if he ask he may not get a answer that's why plz if u gonna say something bad about author work then just get lost don't read it
I used the word "fucking" to describe *my own state of being* not to describe the mangaka or anyone else here expressing their opinion, however lacking, like yours.
"get lost"? No. Again. Childish. I'm moving on. Play by yourself.
The 2nd to last illustration reminds me of Strangers from Hell, hahaha. I need to catch up on that show.
I haven't been this excited about a series in a long time. I love the way the creator builds tension in the scenes. That tie moment...! *bites fist*
I can't help but feel a lot of these "I hate Kaoru", "She's annoying", "I don't understand" comments are from persons with little experience or patience for adult concerns. Perhaps more background into Kaoru's life would help us better understand why she entered this marriage in the first place but people all over the world marry for convincing reason, under influential circumstances that look less solid later on, and it's not because they're all stupid and pathetic.
Marriage is a huge emotional investment. You've dedicated so much of your life to keep it together as a unit. Part of Kaoru already knows the answer to her question and she, quite understandably, fears the consequences. Nevermind the swirl of messed up feelings Uta's confession inspired. Idk what I'd do with myself if my spouse's teenage sibling, with whom I had such a wonderful relationship, confessed such feelings to me. *Worse* if even the tiniest part of me reciprocated it. Hello therapy lololol.
That baby move is, for sure, a bad idea and I hope it doesn't happen. But she grew up in a society that expects and even pressures women into making just that kind of bad decision so I don't find it particularly pathetic of her any more than I do of society in general.
I read this whole manga differently, tho, since I never wanted nor expected she and Kaoru and Uta to get together. How could Kaoru getting together with her high school sister-in-law be *any* better a decision than the things some of you find annoying and pathetic now? LOL. People are weird. (I include myself in that judgement.)
Some of us might think it like that tho
I feel u..u not alone.( ´◡‿ゝ◡`)
I agree with you in most things but I do think it's possible for them to get together at some point, Kaoru isn't that much older than Uta and I don't think any of the characters are really in an emotional, maturity space to make a relationship work, so I guess it would be possible with a passage of time.
The thing I really want it's just for Kaoru to grow and realize that her relationship and the mindset she has in it isn't really healthy, even if in the end she is by herself and also for her to cut ties with Risako because she's a toxic friend.
Thank you. That helps <3.
Goodness knows I can be bitchy on here but potatosan you did the *best* you could on a title no other scanlation group is doing and for that most of us, including myself, are extremely grateful. I know how a bad comment can stand out among a sea of good but try not to let it get to you too much. Do what you have to do, upload your work to whichever site you feel most comfortable with, and supportive readers will find you. We know you'll keep working hard!
Besides that, I find BL with HS delinquents so cute, esp when they're a bottom.
Dis yah story just get NICE. LOLOL.
Folks on this site really acting like cheaters are worse than rapists and murderers.
I've been cheated on too. Doesn't mean I can't appreciate a fun storyline. BL stories feature such capital P problematic stories that readers will sacrifice their future children to defend but let someone CHEAT.
You are trash. Period.
And you’re probably a hag or a basement dweller since you obviously don’t know how often that “slang” you’re referring to is used in every day speech AND media. I’m in university and employed baby . Talking about cheating is fun, I know your ass isn’t getting any pussy or dick MWAH.
You’re the one using the “kid” insult PLSSSS I just know you’re a hag! You’re probably 55 with no sexual experience fighting with a 20 year old. With how frequent you respond I just know you’re also jobless
Lmfao unless you live in one of the few countries currently on major lockdown, businesses haven’t really shutdown except for some just today. You’re active every minute. “I dominate this site” Yes you hag, that was the corniest thing I’ve ever heard. You seem piqued baby, raising your blood pressure won’t do u any good at this age :(
There’s little to no precautions needed if u were staying in house all the time anyways baby :( Keep dominating this site tho, I’m sure that’ll be a great accomplishment
