I know many people love this mangaka.
I know I will get a shit ton of nasty responses to this comment.
I do not care.
All this author's stories are about sick, abusive relationships being portrayed as loving; however, that is COMPLETE AND TOTAL BULLSHIT.
If you love someone, you do NOT treat them like shit.
And if you love yourself, you do NOT allow another person treat you like shit.
So I am officially done with this author because their stories are not romantic or erotic.
These mangas are simply nicely illustrated examples of how not to treat people.

No I didn’t see it I only saw the part about you saying you hate the author. Lol I’m probably blind.
But that’s how majority of Yaoi stories are, you just have to deal with it. And it’s fiction, it doesn’t mean you should treat it like such a big deal, it’s targeted towards a mature audience that has common sense to tell right from wrong, fiction from reality.

From my comment:

How was that in any way unclear?
Also, most yaoi mangakas do not have such consistently one sided and abusive relationships as this one does.
Every story she has ever written involves one person being vile toward another and calling it love.
Sorry, but she's glorifying domestic abuse as romantic.

Take a chill pill you need one.
This reaction would be understandable if it were over a situation occurring in real life.
Is this author abusing anyone in reality? Is it harming anyone in anyway. It’s not supporting abuse it’s just the author deciding to write a story in a certain why.
It’s not that deep. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

You taking it way to the other side. It’s not glorifying it. It’s the way the author wants to make the story for entertainment purposes. By the end of the day we know it’s fiction. Like watching a movie “glorifying” violence or how let’s say violent video games are the cause of people shooting.
A person that knows right and wrong, would not take this story and say “oh rape domestic abuse is ok because I read it in manga that supports it”
No of course not they would read this and say “ oh my gosh I can’t believe this, this is interesting, this character is crazy, that was wrong let’s see what happens, etc etc.”
So to your point how this author makes abusive relationship as loving — it’s the way the fucking author wanted to portray.
Of course we know as the AUDIENCE that that is not the way to treat a person you love blah blah blah. But as the authors characters we get to see how they come about it and etc. it’s story made for entertainment.

Oh really? Then how come you kept on reading this author works? So you do support his/her works right?
So you are assuming everyone that okay with this fiction story is okaying with that?
Those who have justifies their reasons above these comments clearly can differentiate between fantasy and reality. Then, you should not read any of these in the first place because clearly you can read the summary people wrote. Even I have the common sense to read it to ensure that I can accept the story.
You cant retaliate because you cant even put any other argument to support your "pure idea". ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
And HOW VERY SICK AND SAD OF YOU to keep on cursing other people.. Seems like you are the one who have the problem there. You cant even have a proper argument with people.. Then what is the point of this comment section? To diss and curse the author and fellow readers?
Please read til the end of comment okay errant Belle(〜 ̄△ ̄)〜

I made quite clear that I will no longer read the author's work.
That was the entire premise of my original comment.
Again, did you not read it?
Or not understand it?
As far as "crushing other people" is concerned, I'm only replying to people like you who apparently think you should be able to direct vile and hateful comments at me without me returning the favor.
Here's a thought... DON'T BE A HYPOCRITE

You're no longer reading it because you have finished all of this author's story maybe. You can even making the summary of what this author's work regarding 'abusive relationship'.
And it seems like you still didnt know the difference on argument and hate comment just like you didnt know how to differentiate reality and fantasy(〜 ̄△ ̄)〜

Because comment session are meant for discussion etc. You are right for commenting about anything that you want.But when people giving their argument about HOW YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO DIFFERENTIATE REALITY AND FANTASY, YOU SAID THEY CAN ACCEPT THAT KIND OF ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP. Who are you to label people REAL LIFE?

I've read enough of this author's work to know all the stories are the same:
The seme is a fucking asshole who treats the uke like dirt, yet the uke still claims to love them and keeps crawling back for more abuse.
That, however, is not love; it's two people suffering from mental illness being sick together.
I've also read enough of your comments to know that you very much do not believe the comments should be for anyone to discuss anything they want.
And how very pathetic that you write "You are right for commenting about anything that you want.", then immediately launch into an explanation of how I have no right to voice my opinion.
Here's a thought...
Try reading what you write BEFORE you click "Ok, Post It"
Maybe if you did, you'd be able to recognize how nonsensical and inconsistent your "logic" is.

Wow wow... When did I ever blamed you for right what you want. I only said that WHO ARE YOU TO LABEL PEOPLE? For me it is different thing to discuss thing and labeling them. Oh its okay.. You dont even understand fantasy and real life. Bye im muting this because i dont want to speak with you-know-who-you-are

I'm completely with the original poster. If a story is crap or has an asshole character, then I'd like to see it in comments before I start. It might be fiction, but believe it or not a fictitious story can have an effect on someone's mental state.
I got through the first chap and all I could think was 'oh great, another asshole alpha' it seems to be the only kind if alpha I find outside of fanfics. If this is a tendency the mangaka has in her other works, then I'd rather not read more by this person.

Yeah. I agree. That's why we study literature. Some works have a huge impact in our lives
And yeah. Sometimes a comment like hers is necessary for someone who is avoiding certain topics, like this.
In my case, sometimes I feel like I hate everyone (bad days, you know) and I am like "I need an asshole seme to hate" and come to this kinda stories, but usually I prefer lovely and healthy relationships.
And sometimes we like... I don't know... the art(?) and we look for a story that align with our preferences with such a good art and even if a story of an author is not what we are looking for, we check some other of their works. And then you make a general idea of their works.
I usually don't comment if I don't like it, but it's surely useful for readers.

Makoto is the village bicycle, but you're supposed to believe he loves just one guy?!?!?
And not only does he not stop sleeping around when his friend comes back to town, at least one of the people he's sleeping with clearly has feelings for him, but he just continues having sex with every man who crosses his path.
And I'm sure that kind of sluttiness got back to his grandfather through town gossip, which must have just made grandpa extra proud.
Also, Makoto is the kind of person who spreads STDs far and wide and there is NOTHING romantic about that.

And why is that hard to believe? I can't believe 6 other people agree with this shit. There are so many issues with this post I don't even know where to start.
2. How would you know if he spread stds? He seemed like a really educated and smart guy from what the story depicted so where are you pulling that shit from? Are you saying ppl with stds aren't allowed to have sex? What part of how the author wrote him seemed like he was the type of person to spread stds?
3. What does one guy having feeling for him have anything to do with anything at all??? Are you saying he should've been with him exclusively cuz that's called giving false hope and would make him even worse but makoto makes it pretty clear he's not trying to have a relationship with him. Or would you prefer if he stopped sleeping with the guy who has feelings for him cuz how does that change anything? Imo it's literally just another guy that's not shou.
4. He literally thinks shou is straight what in the fuck do you expect him to do shrivel up and die as a virgin? Or do you think he should've waited until he came back YEARS later? Or fallen in love with someone else because it's so easy to fall out of love according to you. Like what do you actually think should happen cuz tbh whatever your answer is will probs suck since apparently you think calling someone a bicycle is okay. Who the fuck actually says shit like that???
5. "extra proud" That was such a sarcastic and insensitive comment about the grandpa. Do you know how difficult it is to come out especially the older generation.
6. What does any of that have to do with his ability to love someone... did makoto cheat on him like where are you pulling this shit from with no evidence. Not that that's relevant to your point cuz you just say oh if he sleeps with that many people he's incapable of love. You sound really indoctrinated. I'm actually concerned.
I could go but I'm getting more triggered every time I read your comment. And you might have noticed 1. is missing from this list that's because it was nothing nice and trust me it would've done nothing to further this convo.

He is a whore; that is fact.
By the admission of the men he sleeps with he uses sex in exchange for goods and services.
He also has sex with many men at the same time, while not being romantically linked to any of them.
That is what a whore is, like literally.
Not sure why you are so offended by that truth, but it remains the truth regardless of your feelings.

First of all maybe you should read a dictionary before you read yaoi, cuz a whore is a derogatory term for prostitute (which is also fine, get your coint if that's the case). I really hope you don't talk like this is public smh, it's already bad enough that you think it's ok to post what you did. And the story clearly says that him having sex had nothing to do with him reviving the shopping district that was all what he got through hard work and education. You're really out here trying to ignore all the other nasty shit you've said in your first comment LOL.

From Merriam-Webster:
whore
Definition of whore (Entry 1 of 2)
1 : a woman who engages in sexual acts for money : prostitute also, informal + offensive : a promiscuous or immoral woman
2 : a male who engages in sexual acts for money
3 : a venal or unscrupulous person
Definition of whore (Entry 2 of 2)
intransitive verb
1 : to have unlawful sexual intercourse as or with a prostitute
2 : to pursue a faithless, unworthy, or idolatrous desire
So...
He qualifies under two of the three definitions for the noun whore.
Does that clear things up for you?
Now can you accept the FACT the he is a whore?
I really appreciate warnings for violence and gore, but...
Did anyone else think it was funny that the warning page popped up AFTER the rape, including the closeup of blood and cum dripping out of his poor hiney?
I feel you. The rape is more gruesome if you ask me. It made me very very upset. And thankful for another gruesome scene made by leo. The captain should be in pieces for what he did to taehon
Agreed.
I was kind of hoping Leo would rip the Captain's dick off, which I know is wrong.
At the same time, he did deserve some really awful fate for what he and his men did.
I mean, I don't care how long you've been without a woman, you don't rape some poor man death because you're horny.
And you sure as heck don't do it so gleefully.
