The story feels really sweet but then the romance kicks in and it's sweet but because "komi can't communicate" people talk shit about Tadano like call him garbage and tell him to go die because he's a piece of shit, tell her she's too good for Tadano,tell her she should stop talking to Tadano and she just lets it happen, never makes a move to correct them, never tries to defend him and the thing is at this point I just think Tadano is too good for Komi because he has done so much for her at this point it feels like he's doing everything for her and I just couldn't handle how the story would kiss Komi's ass while Tadano is being considerate for everyone especially Komi he encourages her whenever she's down, he acknowledges how she's feeling and tries his best to make her feel better. The story started to get boring and some of the new "classmates" they introduced either had one little niche interest that made them "weird" like this girl likes battle cards and this girl is really good at yo-yo if it's not that it's either really creepy and perverted or just a person with confidence and selfworth issues. Because the story is so commited to making Komi this image of perfection all the guys like which means she doesn't make any male friends other than Tadano because the story is so committed to making you think that Komi is a god amongst men it gets a little tiring after hearing for 100th time. So painful to read at a certain point as the story starts doing the same shit over and over again with little variation it cycles through, everyone loves Komi, Komi is nervous, Komi loves Tadano, Someone else might like one of them, fakeout or rejection to said character, remember Komi is amazing, character being perverted/creepy, new character with new gimmick, only acknowledge said character when you need a character of "x" sex, Komi free alone time, will Komi say she's Tadano, Character(Najami) interruption. I'm done I quit I can't do this anymore if a new anime season comes out I'll watch it but if it's still shit then fuck me I guess.
Tadano could do better than Komi I really want her to get rejected because he's pulling all her slack and doing her so many solids that it's painful how little she's doing for him.
Dropped when the couple got together (the couple gets together really early on so I don't consider this spoilers)
They don't commit to her being a cartoon villain enough she has a skimpy fan servicey outfit for her work uniform the underlings of the bad guy are all cartoon skeletons. She is the most generic shoujo romance protagonist and that's a letdown because I was hoping they would commit to her being evil, scary and overall villainous but even her design doesn't want her to be that because she doesn't embody anything of the gimmick "Villain x Hero" this is basically like if a story labelled itself "enemies to lovers" with only a 2 page arguement then at the end of the chapter they got together "because they fought and only enemies fight" same thing with this story only they have her fight in the silliest horniest outfit and expect you to go "wow look at her being the villain" which is very low effort and short then in the next chapter they have her helping old people cross the street, helping a kid find their parents in a crowded event, feeding a stray cat and a bunch of other generic shoujo romance crap that it feels like you could just make them opposing companies/ businesses and nothing would change "like so-and-so works at a café/ pizzaplace/ flower shop/ clothing store but right across the street love interest works at an opposing café/ pizzaplace/ flower shop/ clothing store can this "odd couple" really make it work with their "forbidden romance" " this story's couple is played damn near exactly that scenario which isn't a good thing considering the whole "gimmick" is what if power ranger got with girl from the bad guys. They made her a soft shy uwu girl who treats working there like working at a convenience store it's just low effort and feels like he wanted to make a college shoujo romance but someone told him to make this instead.
Just so disappointing considering how interesting the gimmick was. Art's decent but not enough for the generic shoujo writing for an interesting couple. Just found out it also has hella fan service for the main girl so I believe that should tell about the quality as well.
This was just annoying in how bad, lazy and contrived in how everything was structured and set up like "wow isn't this scenario really strangely romantic but don't forget this is a ploy to break off our engagement now cradle me in your arms.... What no this is totally gonna help us get anulled from this engagement between me and your sexy- I mean your little self because it makes me look "spoiled" and unfit to be princess, now buy something expensive for me. ( god he is so hot but doesn't know us getting married will get us both killed besides he hates me uwu)" but completely unironically and played completely straight through and through.
The FL is just a simp but not in a fun way more in a "hey you know she finds this guy hot right? She thinks he's hot, did we mention she has the hots for him because he's hot? " In the middle of "plot" stuff the plot is also kinda meh main fantasy mechanic used is omegaverse-esc heat but not really omegaverse because we don't have abo we only have "the one" if you find your one you're both thrown into heat and wanna fuck. This is very poorly established and explained when is this heat possible? What is the age limit? Is it touch or smell based? The story says "pheromones" but never elaborates because the main couple gets into heat by touch not even skin-to-skin touch it was through clothes? Is the heat unavoidable? Is there only heat for the first detectation or is it an "everytime we touch we wanna fuck" sort of thing? It's just not explained enough for it to be this important and the story is not smutty enough for me to stop thinking about this crap.
Dating sim Villainess reincarnation with poor execution. The original story isn't even explained or established all that well. The OG isn't that fleshed out or thought out did OG villainess have friends or an entourage? Who cares this butler guy is her only brotherly companion. Did OG villainess have a deeper connection with the prince or was she a shallow bitch? Did she have sound reason to be a bitch? What were OG Villainess's qualities, roles, family, friends, skills and education? The story never tells you unless it's convenient for whatever bullcrap it's trying to pull.
FL doesn't even act like a villainess so can we just not call her that? The only thing that denotes her as a villainess is her wealth and position but even then the story doesn't utilize these qualities at all.
Main plot "villainess" thinks prince(hot guy) hates her prince(did I mention she thinks he's hot?)thinks she hates him. They go into heat because of each other prince immediately pulls her into another room for sex but then pulls himself together. Our "villainess" reveals in the OG story if the villainess marries the prince then they both get assassinated because the prince has too much power. She apparently forgot about this fact when they were about to fuck but whatever. So the next day prince gives them convenient phermone inhibitors (the story calls them something stupid). Then both thinking the other hates them and the FL remembering that them getting married is a death flag decides they should hide the fact that they're "the one" and find a way to break off the engagement and FL being the dumbass that she is decides the best way to break them up is to pretend to be "stuck up" which translates to her acting like a needy bitch but also why doesn't she just do what got the OG villain's marriage anulled? Because she's a horny dumbass.
I don't mind misunderstandings if the shenanigans that ensue are entertaining but the leaps in logic and the lack of thinking things through just makes things more annoying than entertaining.
Rip out her fake eyelashes and golden fucking extensions she's a child murderer. This is like that episode of bojack horseman where he didn't call for help immediately and then she died when there was a chance she could have lived just to not incriminate himself.
Ariadne left for 5 fucking seconds now the child she was taking care of died at the hands of her own blood and neglect
Fucking hell Arabella died right after her mother and sister degraded her and asked why she was even fucking born she probably lost the will to live feeling like she had no place in the world not even mentioning her mother refused a doctor for her believing she wasn't worth the cost.
I like how nice Choi is but I know he's going to get his heartbroken because Dan is starting to get feelings for Jaekyung and Jaekyung is going to get jealous and then a redemption arc where he realizes he likes Dan and admits his tragic backstory. You know damn well Jaekyung is going to go extra hard on Dan for some "inexplicable reason".
At least someone is going to be kind, soft and tender to Dan to make up for Jaekyung's rough, crass, rude, crude and violent self.
I like the love at first sight doting nature Choi presents to Dan like "wow he's so pretty, nice, smart, charming, caring, handsome, interesting"
you summarized the whole thing lmao
She probably did something to manipulate tan dude for later with her foresight but don't know if it will effect her revenge on the bitchy girl but we'll see how it pans out later on. I don't trust okaya's future writing because usually in bully stories the justification and backstory is absolute bullshit and/or makes no god damn sense for the ring leader of the bullies but on the rare off chance that he is well written this manga will go down in revenge story history.
They both suck but in different ways seme is a weird little pervert that got a boner for fictional character that then proceeded to pursue the uke just because he looked similar to the character the ick and ew factor cannot even begin to describe the chills this guy gives me. The uke is not great either pretty standard inferiority complex but at least he's not sick, fucked up and pushy like the seme who basically just steamrolled into this guy's life because of a fetish. It's like a guy sexually harassing a girl with short hair and a flat chest " because she looks like his fave character" its just really creepy doesn't matter if it's fiction it's not entertaining or compelling to read because all I can think is "ew","ick", "no","no just no","barf", "fuck no","what the fuck", "I hate this guy" and "jesus fucking christ not again". I don't mind rapey or pushy yaoi if the personalities mesh well and the chemistry is entertaining but this is so vanilla and bland and standard sometimes that its just like get it over with because you know damn well they're gonna fuck and the angsty uke is gonna like it so much that he's gonna become the seme's tsundere little uke and the uke will find self fulfillment in being a bottom bitch and the seme is gonna find self worth in railing the other guy. It also doesn't help that I'm not really a fan of this trope/couple dynamic of "I'm gonna put you in your place by fucking you in the ass you entitled narcissistic fuck" because sex is usually not the way to go about it the only way I can ingest this trope is when after/sometime during deed they're just soft, cuddly and loving to make up for the ruff sex because this is a romance and I'd like them to be nice to each other without the "you look nice today" "go die and then rot in hell" during or after the sex please. When the pair is'nt not vanilla then it's just ew. In comparison the main couple is angsty with miscommunication and some cool psychological shit that's like ooOoooooOooo not realistic but OoooooOoooooOoooo like is he going to succumb to his desires or is he going to tell our uke everything in a beautiful confession or will he just die mentally and only be stuck with his shameless wants. I also like how friendly they are and how the couple's main conflict is caused by not wanting to hurt each other I think that's really sweet and nice. I also prefer main couple's character designs.
I dont think the romance tag is for the side couple anyway, its super rapey and its completely romanticised. This author has good writing skills but i wish they could give us a psychological without the romanticisation of sexual violence. I mean is human psychology selective? No, they should present it evenly to deepen the plot as well as to not sexualise SA/rape. Its not like i can do anything about it but the dynamics between the main couple are just way better thought out, it feels like the author added a side couple on a whim or something.
I appreciate your take on this because the main couple is structured and explained in a way where care is inherent to their relationship the sex is not intended as way to take something from other or use each other just for sex they want to be closer but the repression in not only the seme's relationship with the uke but with friends, family and peers resulted in him developing this complex as an outlet like dr jekyll and mr hyde if one is so perfect it makes sense that the other will embody all the flaws of the other not to mention the seme is only hurting himself by not telling anyone his feelings like most people with mental illnesses they usually end up hurting themselves moreso than hurting others.
The side couple feels like the author saw populer BL couples and said "I should probably add that for more flavor" rather than being complementary to the main couple or contrast to the main couple it just feels really amateur like baby's first yaoi like "this guy doesn't like this guy but then they have sex and now they like each other because only people that love each other have sex and deep down that other guy secretly wanted the sex he just didn't know it until he tried taking it up the ass" its like disturbingly cliché for the eggshells the main couple have to walk on to not be rapey and sexual assault-y but this couple feels like all the care of a child's arts and crafts project was put into it like there is a lot of passion and effort into something thats just dogshit.
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY. Like what is this generic side piece doing in the middle of a psychological story. It's boring. And clearly anyone enjoying it is just picture book reading for porn (rape and SA too) yuck. How is this more interesting than the main plot???
Exactly, the author is very careful with the main couple but as soon as its the side couple its like reading a BL from the 2000's or some shit. That dumbass 'he was straight until he met me ' troupe is so creepy cause its almost always rapey. The main couple borders on SA but both characters do the exact same thing to each other in different ways, one blackmailing and the other taking advantage of someones mental health issues. Their actions are just as bad as each others and both of them are very well done especially Yura with his DID and split-personality (?) disorder. I really think the author added a rapey couple to keep braindead fujoshits reading since they cant appreciate intricate, complicated stories.
EXACTLY. Like main couple ain't squeaky clean from this either but it's done in a way that's interesting to read. I really don't understand mfs who can read generic 2000s BL rape porn and say it with their chest they like it better than the actual story at hand
they are always just underage fujoshits or something similar its like comparing little nightmares to a 2018 roblox horror story
I'm not sure if I should be relieved its minors bc they don't understand the problem or horrified they're reading this
(kinda hypocrite bc my first was Togainu no Chi, but even *I* knew better than to not condone the rape )
correction its probably the 'he was a top until he met me ' troupe with a bunch of sa consideirng the green haired guy aas hitting on the mc
Whenever sex scenes come up between the second couple I feel like barfing because it's always rape and its not even dubcon (╬￣皿￣)凸
Ikr (︶︿︶)
You think holding the emperor's hand in front of everybody won't lead to rumors of you being a sugar baby who only got her job because she fucked her boss. Dumbass
Draw a fucking line Layla for fucks sake this is why everyone is going to be justified in thinking you're a cheap slut whose only power comes from sucking the emperor's dick and the only reason she's an aide is because she's fucking both the emperor and his aide. You haven't done anything to make everyone else think otherwise and you can't prove you're smart without looking like an entitled jackass so what are you gonna do look like a slut or a jackass. Not to mention you can see they gonna do a fake love triangle between the knight and the emperor where obviously the emperor's gonna win.
I'm not getting mad at the fiancé anymore because the story is making sure this piece of shit is framed as a piece of shit but Layla being framed as justified and reasonable when acting like a dumb bitchy slut is much more annoying.
I hate when fantasy manhwa do that bullshit of "we don't need etiquette because we're besties/ lovers" son of a bitch you're in public and whats the point of medieval setting if you can't even commit to the etiquette and manners.
despite the aggressive words, i agree honestly i thought her character would develop better when she got the title from getting along with the emperor but the plot keeps dragging out
Why are so concerned about rumors.. isn't it more important if she is just happy, you can't stop the way people think so i think it doesn't matter... what is matter is the fact that she officially broke up with that trash
No it's moreso that I know damn well the rumors will become a problem later with her credibility and respect in professional and social settings. She's also going get whiney and complain about the rumors later getting all sad and gloomy about it resulting in all the male characters defending her in the end and just make a big deal out of a problem she caused herself that she can't even fix herself. She's being trash and the story is not calling her out on it and punishing her for it meanwhile he's being trash and everyone is punishing him letting everyone know he's a piece of shit.
You dropped this
She's just a kid even when she was being a little shit she was just imitating her mother and sister and couldn't do any major damage but then Ariadne was nice to her and now she was just trying to get a gift for her for supporting her passions and dreams and now she's hurt cause of some bullshit that's too convuloted for her to even understand.
The novel readers are scaring the crap out me rn with the ominous shit they're spouting. I'm shaking in my boots.
Nawhhh you gotta let me know what they are saying ! I’m curious and scared as heck !
Girl u better start spoiling ╥﹏╥
All they said is they hope the manhwa deviates from the novel but after looking into it a bit more I'm in panic mode (revealing it would be spoilers(?) and I don't know if you wanna know)
Here lies Arabella De Mare ⚰ヾ(༎Д༎)ﾉ
No wayyyyyyyyyy pls no poor girl she was so cute T^T bro I hope they change the story cause nah man Ari will definitely fuck them up and hope she does (╬￣皿￣)凸
When both potato and heesung get rejected the author is going to pair them up together for some bullshit reason like "I've already confirmed their interests in men so why don't I pair them up together since readers will feel bad also creating new homos is so much effort besides I've already confirmed which ones the top and which is the bottom"
But the lil potato not even interested in that way toward jaekyung tho
Who is potato getting rejected form lmao so far it doesn’t rlly show he is interested in men like that and heesung isn’t rlly properly interested he is probably do it for manipulative reasons
He doesn't have romantic feelings for the black haired guy so he was never "rejected" and he currently thinks Heesung has ulterior motives, plus, we don't know if potato even likes men
Then why the hell was he jealous of Dan and don't try telling me it's a boxing thing because Dan wasn't even boxing with Jaekyung until that one point. It's like this is your first Yaoi Manhwa.
He was basically jealous that he had known jeakyung for much longer and the guy never trained with him even after asking several times but fans only been here for like a few weeks and the guy was sparring with Dan. He doesn’t have any romantic feelings cuz if he did then he would still be jealous but he isn’t
Are we reading the same story? Because potato has been jealous of Dan even though he isn't even sparring with Jaekyung and only spending time with Dan so either he REALLY idolizes Jaekyung or he's interested in him and mistaking his feelings of romance for feelings of adimiration.
And Heesung was depicted as interested in Dan when he thought he was pretty not when he heard he was Jaekyung's physical therapist either the author pulled a "frozen" and had the "fake love interest" look too invested in the MC or he's just interested because WTF is your reading comprehension.
Then what about that one time when he thought Dan and Jaekyung were banging in the private room? Why was he so upset and affronted? Is it because he was jealous Dan was closer than him to Jaekyung? Is he homophobic? Is he suspicious of Dan's abilities?
Potato was obliviously interested in Jaekyung and when he realises his feelings and that they aren't reciprocated he's going to be sad and Heesung will somehow get rejected or disinterested because of Dan and don't try and make me think he isn't genuinely interested because his thought bubbles will tell you otherwise and his actions tell you that then either the author or the artist fucked up because I have not seen one panel of a nefarious looking Heesung therefore his feelings are genuine either that or your reading comprehensiom has become fucked from all the bullshit yaoi you've been reading.
whaaaaaa now we have 2 single gays in this BL and you know what that means
First I think u need to rlly sit down and eat some ice or something anyways I don’t think he was nescesserily sad he seemed more confused and shocked Al thought I don’t think he clocked they were banging as I said before I just think he is jealous that Dan and j r so close even thought they have know each other for a limited time and he just feels jealous in a friend way like j is his idol and j barely even looks his way and all of sudden Dan pops up, like if he truly had romantic feelings would he not still be jealous rn but he clearly comes t care lmao
Did u not see the part where heesung smirked when he realised they also lived together like ur telling me that’s normal plus he seems shady overall it’s hinted he perhaps faked his injury as J was tryna explain how he didn’t rlly hit him that hard and it almost seemed like heesung was exaggerating to manipulate Dan cux the guys an idiot. Also mangas can also be up to interpretation but one thing is clear that potato aint go no romantic feelings for J
Calm down, no need to tell me my reading comprehension is "fucked" simply because I don't agree with you. If anything, your reading comprehension level is fucked from all the yaoi you've been reading, because you think simple admiration equates romantic feelings. I'm saying that it's pretty obvious that Potato just wants to fight JK and get close to him because like I said, he admires him, not because he has a crush on him of whatever. And I never said that Heesung actually has ulterior motives and might be worse than JK, I js said that Potato doesn't like Heesung because he thinks all the gifts he's been giving to Dan isn't just out of pure kindness/love. So there, no I don't think they're gonna end up together but if they do whatever
Told you so
I was right & told you so
Well now you're wrong
