At this point, after all this build-up, a cookie-cutter happy ending just won’t do. I’d find a tragic conclusion far more satisfying, it’s the only way this manga could stand out as a classic. There are already plenty of stories with shallow “happily ever afters.” This one is meant for a mature audience and it deserves an ending that reflects that
Tragic ending =/= mature. If we follow that thinking a tragic end eould be just as formulaic as a HEA. I think as long as the ending is realistic to the story it'll be satisfying. I can see this ending tragically very easily cause they're yakuza, but I also see them working something out (esp cause yashiro isn't a full fledged yakuza anymore)
Nah, if this story ends tragically not only would I end myself but I would also think the author chose the easy way out. I feel like a tragic ending is honestly very predictable and easy to achieve while a happy ending would be challenging to execute therefore making the story more interesting. I think it would be really cool to see how the author works towards a happy yet realistic ending rather than just making them both died at the end or something
At least we now know why he refuses to mark him. I just hope the MC doesn’t brush off his memories once the story returns to the present. It would be more meaningful if he took time to reflect not to blame the ML but to recognise that in his past life poor communication and not standing up for himself played a part in how things unfolded. That said, it’s important to remember he wasn’t at fault. In real life the responsibility for domestic violence always lies with the abuser. Showing the MC as someone with agency while still acknowledging the abuse avoids painting survivors as helpless or hopeless which would be a disservice to real victims
This better not become one of those unfinished incomplete uploads.
No worries, it's complete at 6 chapters
I'm sorry but nothing can make having sex in a public toilet sexy. That was disgusting and highly unhygienic. Blurgh.
I’m cryinnnn why it’s actually people giving you a thumbs down like you not telling the truth
It's hot to have such a competent and confident boyfriend who's also very doting
Right I love how he indulge his little sweetie
Is it just me who thinks this is getting boring?
Afraid so bc this is so good?? The depth to the characters personalities is amazing
Yeah it's only u, most of people read this manhwa rlly like it (づ￣ ³￣)づ
exactly the progression is amazing omg here i thought aaron was gonna be an ass but he’s just madly in love
Definitely not boring, but I do wish they’d move on a bit and show whatever the father is up to.
Nice looking lashes. Very cute
Perfect for topping
Oh how I love a pretty top
he's a pretty doll :(
I don’t really want to open a can of worms but I think it’s worth saying. Many mangas, particularly those created in Asia, include arcs that seem to normalise or romanticise sexual violence through portrayals of dubious consent. While this may reflect certain cultural storytelling conventions it can be very disturbing to read. Regardless of intention it doesn’t come across as cute or sexy, and for many audiences especially in places where there’s strong emphasis on consent it’s deeply unsettling. This manhua was doing so well. Why did the author had to go and ruin the characterisation. Ironically, the MCs are both in the legal industry. So disappointing.
It is a novel adaptation, the adaptation just isn't very close
Well, look at that. Red-head actually turns out to be much deeper and more interesting than I gave him credit for. He’ll probably end up being the conduit for the relationship between the two MCs.
The guide on the other hand is still just a tool pretending to be caring. His emotional depth feels no deeper than a puddle and it’ll take a lot of back-and-forth for things to develop properly. The pacing feels rushed and I can’t shake the feeling the author isn’t building the real relationship here. At least I hope not because right now the MC’s motivation and feelings seem really misplaced.
We’ll see how the story unfolds, but it’s rare to find genuinely deep stories in this genre. I do like that the author avoided pairing up two S-classes. that arc is overdone, boring, and predictable.
Took the words right out my mind
